Actually the main/only woman the New York Times used in their hit piece has called The New York Times out for being misleading and dishonest. It’s an epic shit show on the New York Times part. Illustrating that if they ever were trustworthy it certainly isn’t now. It’s hard to even know where to start with this whole clusterfuck. But the main woman referenced in their hit job is a conservative activist who helped start the women for Kavanaugh group to get his nomination to the Supreme Court through. And cover for his misogyny etc.
So let’s just start with that not being the sort of person you want to build a case or a story around in the first place. And then on top of that she’s accusing them of misrepresenting her. Now while I think she absolutely would do anything to make the New York Times look bad. The New York Times absolutely stepped in it themselves. And all the other women that the New York Times contacted but didn’t really use for their story have also chimed in that the New York Times description and representation of him was inaccurate.
Platner has called out Israel and AIPAC. They desperately want something, anything to attack him with. Which is why the New York Times ran with such a bad story.
It’s something we all have to be extra careful about these days. If you’re going to watch mainstream information sources. It’s not a bad idea to Pepper in some coverage from more left-leaning podcasters and radio shows.
There’s always the classic majority report. Which has been a long-lasting mainstay over the years consistently proven right.
Kyle at secular talk speaks with a tone that might be jarring to boomers and many Xers like myself. But he is on point and spits fire to millenials and younger demographics.
Hell even the hometown duo here while very young are making waves. Dubbed silly and billy by Cenk Uygur. Though they seem a bit more meta.
Yeah, I do the news every work day and try to stay with the mainstream, but weed out the obvious shitshows. It does lead to tunnel vision on the smaller metro areas, which is what happened here. I didn’t have a source for Maine, which is probably part of the problem. I have one for other major cities, but not sure if there is a Maine comparable.
I don’t have one for specific cities. It’s certainly not a bad idea. But a heck of a lot of work. But of that bunch I can’t tell you how many times they have brought up coverage from those places when relevant. Enough that I generally feel comfortable trusting them more than the major news outlets.

Well that’s good to know. The propaganda worked on me then. I’ll give him a better chance now.

Mike at The humanist report seems solid too.

Thanks for all of the links. I did try Majority Report once and wasn’t feeling it. I need a print article to skim too.
100% valid criticism. Lots of times it’s hard to sit and watch/listen. Especially at work. I wish I was a bit more aware of similar print sources.
