The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

Obama Now Openly Telling Media What Propaganda to Print

 It's not exactly news that the media is there to help Obama. It's not even news that the White House feeds talking points to the media. It just doesn't usually do so at press conference while saying, "Print this."

So now we've hit a new low in the pathetic disgusting relationship between Obama and his media lapdogs.

During his press conference on the school shootings, Obama told the media what to print.

    "And, of course, what’s also routine is that somebody, somewhere will comment and say, Obama politicized this issue.  Well, this is something we should politicize.  It is relevant to our common life together, to the body politic.  I would ask news organizations -- because I won't put these facts forward -- have news organizations tally up the number of Americans who’ve been killed through terrorist attacks over the last decade and the number of Americans who’ve been killed by gun violence, and post those side-by-side on your news reports.  This won't be information coming from me; it will be coming from you."

Except that it is coming from "me".

Still surely the media had too much dignity and self-respect to actually start running stories based on what the Beloved Leader told them to print. Well maybe the media in some other country might. The media here got in their human centipede positions and started running the propaganda they were told to run.

Because we have the best media ever.



    NBC - Number of Americans Killed by Gun Violence Vs. Terrorism Shows Stark Contrast

    New York Times - Terrorism vs. Gun Violence

    Vox - Deaths from gun violence vs. deaths from terrorism

    ABC - Gun violence and terrorism in the US: Barack Obama wants you to see this chart

NBC - Slavery is Freedom

New York Times - War is Peace

ABC - Barack Obama wants you to know that Lies are Truth

This is real progress. Any day now the media will stop pretending that it's a news organization and just print straight White House press releases. And then we can finally begin the task of building an independent free press.

For now we have the same media as Russia, China or North Korea but it occasionally allows lone dissenting voices, before ruthlessly silencing them.

Watch How Carly Fiorina Reacts When CNN Anchor Suggests Her ‘Rhetoric’ Influenced Alleged Planned Parenthood Shooter

Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina snapped at CNN host Chris Cuomo when he asked her if she regrets her past comments condemning Planned Parenthood following the deadly shooting in Colorado.

Cuomo first asked, “Do you feel any sense of regret about how you characterized what was going on at Planned Parenthood after the attack in Colorado?”

He then added, “Because of what the man said which seems as though he was influenced by some of the rhetoric coming out of you and others that painted a very ugly picture — and unfair one — about Planned Parenthood.”

Visibly annoyed by the line of questioning, Fiorina snapped back, “Oh, please. Really, Chris?”

The Republican candidate said the Planned Parenthood shooter is “deranged” and should be “put away for life.” However, she continued, “that has nothing to do with the truth of what is going on in Planned Parenthood, and this is a typical left-wing tactic, to try and shut down the truth by silencing people.”

Cuomo then asserted the undercover Planned Parenthood videos, released by the Center for Medical Progress, were “edited” and it appears the shooter “killed in the name” of what was depicted in the footage.

“Careful, you’re a journalist,” Fiorina warned. “I don’t recall anyone in the pro-life community celebrating this tragedy. … It’s clear what your opinion is, Chris.”

“I think you’ve bought the Planned Parenthood line, hook, line and sinker. Good to know that,” she said.

Watch the tense exchange below via CNN:

MSNBC’s Brzezinski: Reporters’ ‘Skin Is Crawling’ Covering Trump [VIDEO]

MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Mika Brzezinski questioned the establishment media’s objectivity when covering Donald Trump Monday.

“Reporters are supposed to be ‘objective,’ and they ooze with a lack of objectivity when they’re covering him,” Brzezinski said.

“You can sort of see it in their kind of like smiling, sort of slyly and uncomfortably and almost snarkily while they’re reporting on his rallies, ’cause they can’t take him seriously.”

“They can’t say, ‘You know what? There are a lot of people who would say that this could be a very dangerous statement, but if you would look at the crowd behind us, this is exactly what they want to hear.’ They can’t even say that with conviction,” she continued. “They just can’t do it. It’s like their skin is crawling.”

EMAIL HIGHLIGHTS HILLARY'S CONTROL OVER REPORTER
Staffer orders journalist: Call her speech 'muscular'


Hillary Clinton’s staffers once ordered a journalist to refer to her speech on foreign policy as “muscular” – and the journalist did.

The backstory is this: Atlantic magazine’s Marc Ambinder in 2009 emailed Clinton aide Philippe Reines to ask for an advance copy of a speech then-Secretary of State Clinton was due to deliver to the Council on Foreign Relations.

The ‘Stop Hillary’ campaign is on fire! Join the surging response to this theme: ‘Clinton for prosecution, not president’

Reines said yes, so long as Ambinder agreed to three conditions.

As Breitbart reported, the conditions were “you in your own voice describe them as ‘muscular;'” “you note that a look at the CFR seating plan shows that all the envoys – from Holbrooke to Mitchell to Ross – will be arrayed in front of her, which in your own clever way you can say certainly not a coincidence and meant to convey something;” and “you don’t say you were blackmailed!”

Ambinder responded: “got it,” Breitbart reported.

And his published piece in the Atlantic read like this: “When you think of President Obama’s foreign policy, think of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. That’s the message behind a muscular speech that Clinton is set to deliver today to the Council on Foreign Relations. The staging gives a clue to its purpose: seated in front of Clinton, subordinate to Clinton, in the first row, will be potentially rival power centers: envoys Richard Holbrooke and George Mitchell and National Security Council senior director Rep. Dennis Ross (F-FL).”

Gawker asked about Ambinder’s views of the matter and said he didn’t remember the email back-and-forth but that “it made me uncomfortable then and it makes me uncomfortable today.”

Nobody Believes the Media Anymore: “Trust Has Eroded to Just 6 Percent” Of Americans

The truth is, most Americans have understood that the network news and television broadcasts are filled with lies for a while now.

Only, Americans in general put up with the lies for a long time, so long as they still had good jobs, and a decent opportunity as security and a good life.

Nowadays, the squeeze is on. The economic pressure and the growing underclass of government-dependent zombies are all too clear. Many people are becoming sophisticated at sorting out untruths and self-serving propaganda.

The B.S. broadcasting 24/7 on cable news is tiresome. Establishment newspapers and other government-sanctioned liars are losing their grip to the Internet, and today’s Americans are apt to shrug off their old gatekeepers and instead seek out news and information that responds to their concerns.

As the Associated Press demonstrates, this is no fringe movement – basically nobody believes the media anymore, and they are largely seen as complicit in the corruption of the system in Washington, on Wall Street and in countless avenues of everyday life.

Just about everyone alive today is onto their agenda.

According to the AP:

    Trust in the news media is being eroded by perceptions of inaccuracy and bias, fueled in part by Americans’ skepticism about what they read on social media.

    Just 6 percent of people say they have a lot of confidence in the media, putting the news industry about equal to Congress and well below the public’s view of other institutions.

    […]

    Faced with ever-increasing sources of information, Americans also are more likely to rely on news that is up-to-date, concise and cites expert sources or documents, according to a study by the Media Insight Project… the expectations of news consumers have increased.

    […]

    Nearly 90 percent of Americans say it’s extremely or very important that the media get their facts correct, according to the study. About 4 in 10 say they can remember a specific incident that eroded their confidence in the media, most often one that dealt with accuracy or a perception that it was one-sided.

The understated difference is not just the existence of the Internet and iPhone, but the menu of options that allows readers to interact and seek out news and information in a proactive way. They aren’t confined to just three channels anymore…

Users are no longer held captive to corporate influence and government talking points. There are endless websites for all points in the political spectrum.

So, while the study shows how corrupt and untrustworthy the government, political candidates and media/news personalities have become, the positive news is that the future about much more than just being spoon-fed “news” that is fortified with elements of the agenda being worked behind the scenes.

The study cited by the AP notes:

    Rosenstiel said people who use social media are “hunting pretty carefully for cues” in deciding whether to click on an item of news to read more. The most important factor in determining trust: whether or not they know the original source of the story.

But there is also the potential danger of group think that arises from people forming ideological cliques and refusing to venture beyond the backwaters of thinking in only one way and subconsciously pursuing confirmation bias. (But there’s no utopia, and we must take the good with the bad.)

The dinosaur media will be studied by cultural paleontologists of the near future, obsessed, perhaps with images of ourselves through the recent past.

As they peer into this bizarre system of controlled information, they will question why anybody ever listened to a handful of speaker-reporters who all learned to talk in a phoney cadence and regurgitate talking points literally issued from a centralized source.

This is literally true at most call-letter news stations. Just check out this hilarious but disturbing clip from Conan O’Brien:

Looking for an Alternative? Nearly No Americans Trust the News Media

You’d be hard pressed to find an American that trusts the media these days, citing skepticism, bias, and inaccuracy, though Democrats are more likely to believe than Republicans or Independents.

Only 6% of those polled asserted that they have “a lot of confidence” in the media, according to a new study by the Media Insight Project, a partnership of The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and the American Press Institute.

The survey found that accuracy is the biggest issue Americans have with the media, with nearly 90% of people stating that it is extremely or very important for the press to have their facts correct.

Approximately 40% claimed that they couldn’t remember a specific incident that made them lose their faith in the media, but most often the study found that trust was lost after incidents that involved accuracy or a clear editorial bias.

With fierce competition from alternative media, as well as instant updates on news events on social media, such as Twitter, the push to be first appears to be forcing outlets to publish without necessarily waiting for the facts.

"The most important thing that news organizations can do is be accurate, and while we know that is a high value, this study reinforces that," Margaret Sullivan, public editor of The New York Times — a paper that has been widely criticised as currently having a strong bias in favor of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton — told AP. “Even if it goes against the competitive push to be first, she said, "perhaps there has to be a willingness to wait a little bit to be right."

Meanwhile, publishers of some of the largest online news outlets have been in a panic amid layoffs. In the month of April alone, Mashable laid off 30 people and Salon is in the process of downsizing as well.

The poll was conducted from February 18 through March 21, and used a sample of 2,014 adults. The margin of error for their findings was plus or minus 2.9%.

Obama To Press: You Have ‘Responsibility’ ‘To Question,’ Thanks For Working ‘Side-By-Side’ With Me

During Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, President Obama told the media they have a “responsibility to dig, and to question,” and “It has been an honor and a privilege to work side-by-side with you to strengthen our democracy.”

Obama told the press, “t’s not enough just to give people a megaphone, and that’s why your power and your responsibility to dig, and to question, and to counter distortions and untruths is more important than ever. Taking a stand on behalf of what is true does not require you shedding your objectivity. In fact, it is the essence of good journalism.”

He concluded, “I want to close my final White House Correspondents’ Dinner by just saying, thank you. I’m very proud of what you’ve done. It has been an honor and a privilege to work side-by-side with you to strengthen our democracy.”

Why Did NBC News Sit on Explosive Story About Clinton’s Alleged Hacked Email Server For Weeks?

As LawNewz.com reported on Wednesday evening, NBC News was the second major news network to announce an upcoming interview with the notorious Romanian hacker Marcel Lehel Lazar, better known by the name “Guccifer.”

Lazar, whose actions led to the exposure of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, was extradited to the United States in March.  He is alleged to have posted emails that were sent to then-Secretary of State Clinton on the internet, including correspondence from close Clinton family confidant Sidney Blumenthal. Lazar was extradited to the United States just as reports indicate that the FBI investigation into Clinton’s email server was in in full swing. Lazar is charged with wire fraud, cyberstalking, identify theft, unauthorized access to computers and obstruction of justice.

According to the NBC News press release, Lazar was interviewed by reporter Cynthia McFadden from a Bucharest prison, where he admitted to also hacking into Clinton’s private e-mail account.  Here is the transcript from the upcoming NBC interview special, On Assignment:

###

CYNTHIA McFADDEN:

When Hillary Clinton says that her server is absolutely safe – you’re laughing.

MARCEL LEHEL LAZAR (GUCCIFER):

That’s a lie.

McFADDEN:

That’s a lie?

GUCCIFER:

Yes.

McFADDEN:

It’s not safe.

GUCCIFER:

It’s not safe at all.

# # #

As you can see from the transcript, Lazar is openly admitting to hacking Clinton’s private e-mail account.  The same private e-mail account where federal officials found over 2,000 e-mails that contained classified information, including at least 22 deemed to contain “Top Secret” information.  That is pretty explosive information. To note, Clinton’s campaign has already fired back, in a statement saying “There is absolutely no basis to believe the claims made by this criminal from his prison cell.”

Now, this is where things get a little strange.  As was noted earlier, NBC News says Lazar made these claims to McFadden during an interview in a Bucharest prison and we know Lazar was extradited to the United States on or about March 31, 2016.  So, it stands to reason that McFadden conducted the interview before he was extradited to the U.S. which means NBC News was sitting on these explosive claims for more than one month.  Which begs the question, why would a major news network sit on such an explosive allegation — especially when the claim directly relates to a presidential candidate and the biggest story the 2016 presidential election cycle?

Understandably, production on a special might take longer than usual — but given the story — networks have turned interviews around in mere minutes.

The delay cost them what would’ve been a huge exclusive, or at least seemed to prompt them to hurry and put something out as Fox News went with its own story and interview with Lazar late Wednesday. Fox News clearly did their interview with the hacker after he arrived in the United States. As they mentioned, they visited him in a Virginia jail.

We reached out to NBC News for clarification and a spokesman declined to comment at this time.

MSNBC Calls Bill Clinton's Affairs 'Alleged'

"Alleged misconduct."  Cheesy

At least two programs on MSNBC Monday referred to former president Bill Clinton's well-documented past philandering as "alleged" in response Donald Trump ripping into Queen Hillary last weekend for backing up her husband.

"She was a total enabler," said Trump over the weekend. "She would go after these women and destroy their lives. I mean have you ever read what Hillary Clinton did to the women that Bill Clinton had affairs with? And they're going after me with women? Give me a break"

MSNBC's first cover for Clinton came when Tamron Hall asked CNBC Washington correspondent John Harwood about Trump's "vicious attacks" against Hillary for throwing so many women under the bus to protect her husband's rise to power:

John, before this morning, the lead was probably these vicious attacks that Trump has leveled against Hillary Clinton, her husband's affair or affairs, alleged affairs. Now it's his flip-flop on taxes and the problems this presents again with his own party.

The panel that followed Tamron Hall's tap dance made no effort to challenge her.

Later in the afternoon, MSNBC host Thomas Roberts played the same language game, choosing instead to describe Bill Clinton's egregious behavior during his presidency as "alleged misconduct."

Roberts expressed dismay that  Trump was "going right for the jugular when it comes to Hillary Clinton and going after Bill Clinton and alleged misconduct with women."

For anyone experiencing bouts of amnesia, no "alleged misconduct" or "alleged affair" took place during Bill Clinton's presidency. We know this because he went on national television and publicly admitted to engaging in sexual acts in the oval office with 22-year-old intern Monica Lewinsky.

The president was 50-years-old and married when these "inappropriate" acts took place.

Obama Has Last Laugh as Iran Deal Lies Revealed Too Late

Like the Biblical serpent in the Garden of Eden, the Obama administration has manipulated the American public into supporting a nuclear deal, possibly against their own best interests, a senior security advisor gloated to The New York Times. In a profile of Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications Ben Rhodes written by reporter David Samuels, the former acknowledged that a carefully crafted campaign to misrepresent the background of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) between Iran and 6 major Western powers was deliberately executed to smoothe the way for the US to disengage from Middle Eastern affairs.

The profile details Rhodes’s transition from aspiring novelist to political writer, as well as his career path to the White House. It focuses on Rhodes’s elaborate spin campaign in favor of the nuclear deal, which critics claim leaves far too much room for Iran to develop the nuclear weapon negotiations were meant to prevent.

Officially, negotiations began when a more moderate government, led by President Hassan Rouhani, was elected in Iran in 2013. In reality, however, Rhodes pointed out, they were initiated in 2012, many months before Rouhani took power. In Samuels’s analysis, “Even where the particulars of that story are true, the implications that readers and viewers are encouraged to take away from those particulars are often misleading or false.”

Rhodes is particularly flippant in describing his methods. “All these newspapers used to have foreign bureaus,” he told Samuels. “Now they don’t. They call [the White House] to explain to them what’s happening in Moscow and Cairo. Most of the outlets are reporting on world events from Washington. The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.”


According to Samuels’s piece, “Rhodes has become adept at ventriloquizing many people at once.” He knows how to navigate the new world of social and electronic media to ensure his version of the truth is circulating.

“We created an echo chamber,” he admitted to Samuels, when asked about the flood of experts suddenly expressing support for the JCPOA. “They were saying things that validated what we had given them to say.” In addition, “We had test drives to know who was going to be able to carry our message effectively, and how to use outside groups like Ploughshares, the Iran Project and whomever else. So we knew the tactics that worked.”

According to Samuels, he is proud of the way he sold the Iran deal. “We drove them crazy,” he said of the deal’s opponents.

Rhodes explained to Samuels the drive behind President Barack Obama’s policies in Iran and elsewhere in the Middle East, putting appeasement of enemies ahead of supporting allies. According to Rhodes, it’s all about avoiding another war. “We don’t have to kind of be in cycles of conflict if we can find other ways to resolve these issues,” he said. “We can do things that challenge the conventional thinking that, you know, ‘AIPAC doesn’t like this,’ or ‘the Israeli government doesn’t like this,’ or ‘the gulf countries don’t like it.’ It’s the possibility of improved relations with adversaries. It’s nonproliferation. So all these threads that the president’s been spinning — and I mean that not in the press sense — for almost a decade, they kind of all converged around Iran.”

To appreciate the implications of this policy, Samuels turned to Leon Panetta, former CIA director and Secretary of Defense, both under the Obama administration. Panetta confirmed that Rouhani’s election was no more than a useful smokescreen for nuclear negotiations and had nothing to do with any actual change in the Islamic Republic’s policies.

“There was not much question that the Quds Force and the supreme leader ran that country with a strong arm,” Panetta told Samuels, “and there was not much question that this kind of opposing view could somehow gain any traction.”

That doesn’t matter, though, according to Rhodes. “Look, with Iran, in a weird way, these are state-to-state issues. They’re agreements between governments. Yes, I would prefer that it turns out that Rouhani and Zarif” — Mohammad Javad Zarif, Iran’s foreign minister — “are real reformers who are going to be steering this country into the direction that I believe it can go in, because their public is educated and, in some respects, pro-American. But we are not betting on that.”

Panetta also told Samuels that while he once believed Obama would make the tough decisions and take military action against Iran should it become apparent that the Islamic Republic was developing a nuclear weapon, today he is not so sure.

Panetta was tasked with ensuring Israel would not strike Iran preemptively during negotiations. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and then-defence minister Ehud Barak “were both interested in the answer to the question, ‘Is the president serious?’ ” Panetta recalled to Samuels. “And you know my view, talking with the president, was: If brought to the point where we had evidence that they’re developing an atomic weapon, I think the president is serious that he is not going to allow that to happen.”

However, “Would I make that same assessment now?” he went on. “Probably not.”

Rhodes’s cavalier attitude towards the truth and open public discourse have brought harsh criticism in the wake of the Samuels profile. Algemeiner reported that journalists and pundits alike have lashed out at the Obama advisor, adding a few sharp words for those who fell for his tricks hook, line and sinker.

New York Post columnist John Podhoretz wrote in a Thursday oped that the White House “played us for fools”, adding, “Congratulations, liberals of the Washington press corps and elite organizations: You’re a bunch of suckers. We all know this because the Obama White House just told us so.”

Meanwhile, Omri Ceren, a senior staffer at The Israel Project (TIP), a group which opposed the Iran deal, took a page out of Rhodes’s own book, posting via Twitter,  “When Rhodes and company brag about how they manipulated their favorite journalists, you don’t get the sense they respect those journalists.” He also tweeted,

CBS News Political Director: 'Our Job' to Steer Away from the Clintons' Past
Your JOB is to report the truth

"Elections are supposed to be about the future."



CBS News political director John Dickerson told Stephen Colbert that part of a journalist's job when it comes to covering Bill and Hillary Clinton is to steer conversations away from their pasts.

This stunning admission came Wednesday night in New York City in a live interview that took audience questions. A question surfaced about Bill Clinton's past and how that could affect Hillary's chances in the presidential election.

Colbert reiterated the question and added his own tag: "Can Bill Clinton’s past take down Hillary Clinton’s future? I will also say, add Hillary Clinton’s past in there. Can things from the ‘90s count now?”

Dickerson responded:

"Well it’s ah...so it feels like this campaign’s going to be a lot about Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton’s past and Donald Trump’s past. Elections are supposed to be about the future. And it feels like we are not, um, we’re not having that conversation. Although we’ve tried it. Actually, you know, one of our jobs is to try to take the conversation and make it about the future and people’s lives, not about adjudicating the past."

Dickerson did say an exception could be made if that "past goes to character and temperament which is crucial because we’re not going to be there when the big decisions are made and you need people who have the character and the temperament for the job."

The Clintons would seem to qualify for his exception, yet Dickerson said, "So, um, I don't know."

Colbert noted that an e-mail from the Donald Trump campaign was accidentally sent to a journalist at Politico that stated an internal plan to start bringing up the Clinton Whitewater scandal from the '90s.

"Which just proves that Hillary Clinton is the second worst at using e-mail," he quipped.

Dickerson laughed and added, "Although you could argue that she's very good at using e-mail."

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/dallas-conservatives-rebel-against-drudge-144308586.html
After Dallas, conservatives rebel against the Drudge Report
7/10/16

"BLACK LIVES KILL."

Those were the three words that blared across the Drudge Report early Friday morning after five Dallas police officers were killed in a horrific ambush attack.

And immediately upon seeing the race-baiting headline, conservatives rebelled against a once reliable ally who has become more and more divisive to them over the course of the 2016 campaign.

“In moments like these, we should do the opposite of what Drudge is doing,” Commentary Magazine Editor Noah Rothman wrote on Twitter.

“Responsible reporting as always,” sarcastically tweeted Jeff Blehar, from the popular Ace of Spades blog.

Others piled on.

Allahpundit, an influential anonymous conservative blogger, skewered the site for a subsequent banner headline claiming a “black power group” had claimed responsibility for the attack.

“Dallas chief says suspect told them before he died that he wasn’t part of a group,” the blogger wrote.

And David French, the National Review writer who flirted with a third-party presidential run, went as far as to say that he had deleted the Drudge Report app from his phone.



The anti-Drudge sentiment had been simmering for months. But it seemed to finally come to a boil with the Drudge Report’s coverage of the Dallas attack.

Since its inception in 1996, the Drudge Report has been a home to conservatives who feel disenfranchised by traditional media. Drudge has marketed his website as a news destination not controlled by corporate interests or politicians.

But that's a narrative that was heavily challenged during the 2016 Republican Primary, when it became clear the news aggregator was pushing a pro-Trump agenda.

Many conservatives who frequent the right-wing link aggregator had grown upset over how founder Matt Drudge had covered the 2016 election. The Drudge Report, they say, trashed true-bred conservatives like Ted Cruz in favor of promoting a squishy moderate in Donald Trump.

“I don’t know what the hell happened to Matt Drudge,” Glenn Beck, the prominent conservative talk-show host and founder of The Blaze, said in March.

The Drudge Report, operating from the same playbook as Trump, has used the racial tension in the country to generate page views, its critics say. And the website’s controversial three-word headline in the aftermath of the Dallas attack was the final straw.

“Matt Drudge, for whom my late friend Andrew Breitbart used to work closely and for whom I used to fill in on his old national radio show, is not a conservative,” conservative talk-radio host John Ziegler told Business Insider. “He is a brilliant businessman who doesn't care at all about the conservative cause.”

Comedy Central Cancels Larry Wilmore
"I’m really grateful to Comedy Central."

 Cheesy

Comedy Central's ongoing effort to replace political propagandists Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert has yielded dismal results, with Trevor Noah's The Daily Show tanking in the ratings and the now-cancelation of Larry Wilmore's Nightly Show.

Getting his start as Jon Stewart's "Senior Black Correspondent," Comedy Central tapped Wilmore to replace Stephen Colbert after snagging David Letterman's coveted spot on CBS. Amidst largely unfruitful ratings, Wilmore's last show will air Thursday night.

"I’m really grateful to Comedy Central, Jon Stewart, and our fans to have had this opportunity," Wilmore said in a statement. "But I’m also saddened and surprised we won’t be covering this crazy election or ‘The Unblackening’ as we’ve coined it. And keeping it 100, I guess I hadn’t counted on ‘The Unblackening’ happening to my time slot as well."

According to Comedy Central's president Kent Alterman, this "unblackening" came as a result of Wilmore's inability to pull in the viewers.

"Even as the show has evolved creatively, it hasn’t seemed to connect with our audience, which is disconcerting and disappointing to us," Alterman told USA Today. "When we took a hard look —  especially after the conventions, where we also didn’t see any traction we were hoping for — we didn’t have enough evidence to justify committing to another year."

From Breitbart:

Wilmore struggled in the ratings almost immediately after taking over for Colbert in January 2015. By February of this year, Wilmore’s ratings were down 55% from theColbert Report, and coverage of the Republican and Democratic National Conventions and a controversial stint hosting the White House Correspondents Dinner earlier this year didn’t translate into higher ratings.

While hosting the White House Correspondents Dinner, Wilmore sparked controversy when he uttered the word "nigga" on national television while addressing President Obama.

"Words alone do me no justice," said Wilmore. "So, Mr. President, if I’m going to keep it 100: Yo, Barry, you did it, my nigga. You did it!"

Unfortunately, Mr. Wilmore, as the cancelation of your show indicates, you didn't.

WATCH TEN MINUTES OF CNN AND MSNBC CUTTING OFF PEOPLE WHO DARE CRITICIZE CROOKED HILLARY
In the compilation video, the YouTube channel "Centipede Productions" has amassed 10 minutes worth of CNN claiming technical difficulties, shouting down guests, and flat-out cutting the microphone of people who attempt to speak the facts pertaining to Hillary Clinton's scandal-ridden past and present.

T’S NO SECRET THAT THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS A GIANT LIBERAL CESSPOOL WILLING TO DO AND SAY ANYTHING TO MAKE SURE THEIR DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE GETS ELECTED. IN THIS CASE IT’S HILLARY CLINTON.

EDITOR’S NOTE: In case you have been wondering why the liberal media never talks about Crooked Hillary’s email scandals, her husband’s molestation scandals, Benghazi, Whitewater, Rose Law Firm, or 50 former friends and associates who are now dead, wonder no more. Yes, it is a conspiracy, and they are all covering for her. Watch and see for yourself.

Yet in the midst of two consecutive email scandals, her record of failure, including letting four Americans die in Benghazi, and having the father of the terrorist responsible for the worst attack since 9/11 sitting behind her at a recent rally, all the media can report is, “Hey, look, Trump said something distasteful again!”

In the compilation video (below), the YouTube channel “Centipede Productions” has amassed 10 minutes worth of CNN claiming technical difficulties, shouting down guests, and flat-out cutting the microphone of people who attempt to speak the facts pertaining to Hillary Clinton’s scandal-ridden past and present.



The video begins with a correspondent having her live feed cut off just as she’s detailing Clinton’s record on supporting laws that the Left now believes unfairly targeted minorities in the 90s. It moves on to a hilarious moment where a CNN host throws to a clip she thought would be angry African Americans protesting Trump, but turns out to be a black pro-Trump supporter talking about the racial unity he’s found at the rallies and the media’s determination to race-bait, which is exactly what that host was trying to do. Hi-lari-ous!

Another host slams a conservative guest as lying when in reality she was repeating the talking points of FBI Director Comey’s press conference about Hillary’s secret-home email server, which was filled with classified information she denied was ever there.

WHICH BRINGS US TO THE KING OF ALL INTOLERANT CNN HOSTS, DON LEMON, WHO WILL CUT THE MIC ON ANYONE WHO DARES SPEAK A FACT ABOUT CLINTON (OR OBAMA) THAT HE DOESN’T AGREE WITH. IN THIS CLIP, HE CUTS THE MIC OF A GUEST WHO DARED BRING UP THAT HILLARY WAS COMPLICIT IN THE MANY SEXUAL HARASSMENT SITUATIONS HER HUSBAND IS FAMOUS FOR.

The final portion is host Anderson Cooper cutting off a guest who once again dared to speak facts about Hillary that were already reported on CNN and many other news outlets, but were clearly not what the host wanted to hear. Specifically, the guest was bringing up the point that Hillary, who’s campaigning on being a woman who is “for women,” was caught on tape bragging about how she got a child rapist off on a technicality. source

CBS Edits Out Bill Clinton's Revealing Verbal Slip on Hillary's Health

During Monday night's CBS Evening News broadcast, a clip of Charlie Rose interviewing Bill Clinton omitted what some would call a Freudian-like slip from Clinton on the status of his wife's health. Though Clinton corrected himself mid-statement, it was not a message the Clinton campaign, or apparently CBS, wanted out in the public, so they edited it out.

The network backpedaled Tuesday and included the full quote on their morning show but the damage had already been done. Tuesday morning's cable shows on CNN, MSNBC and Fox all used the edited clip from CBS instead.

As you can see in the video below, the edit in the second clip from CBS Evening News is so seamless without any visible transition that it's clear CBS was trying to make it appear that this was the full response from Clinton.

The Daily Caller's Chuck Ross first noted the discrepancy between what was played on TV and what CBS' website read. Here is the full quote posted on CBS' website:

    BILL CLINTON: Well if it is, it's a mystery to me and all of her doctors, because frequently—well not frequently, rarely—but on more than one occasion, over the last many, many years, the same sort of thing happened to her when she got severely dehydrated.

This isn't the first time this election we've seen some aggressive editing from the networks. The liberal media has a habit of trying to make people say things they didn't say to fit an agenda.

American trust in news media falls to lowest level in history: Gallup poll
The Washington Times http://www.washingtontimes.com

A major pollster has some stark news: “Americans’ trust and confidence in the mass media ‘to report the news fully, accurately and fairly’ has dropped to its lowest level in Gallup polling history, with 32 percent saying they have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the media. This is down eight percentage points from last year,” writes Art Swift, an analyst for the Gallup poll, which first asked the nation to weigh in on the press in 1972.

“Over the history of the entire trend, Americans’ trust and confidence hit its highest point in 1976, at 72 percent, in the wake of widely lauded examples of investigative journalism regarding Vietnam and the Watergate scandal,” Mr. Swift said.

The sentiment has fallen slowly and steadily, and has consistently been below a majority level since 2007.

“Republicans who say they have trust in the media has plummeted to 14 percent from 32% a year ago. This is easily the lowest confidence among Republicans in 20 years,” the analyst noted.

Among Democrats, the number is 51 percent, among independents, it is 30 percent.

“While it is clear Americans’ trust in the media has been eroding over time, the election campaign may be the reason that it has fallen so sharply this year,” Mr. Swift said.

“With many Republican leaders and conservative pundits saying Hillary Clinton has received overly positive media attention, while Donald Trump has been receiving unfair or negative attention, this may be the prime reason their relatively low trust in the media has evaporated even more. It is also possible that Republicans think less of the media as a result of Trump’s sharp criticisms of the press.”

The poll of 1,020 U.S. adults was conducted Sept. 7-11.

This morning, my mom told me that Jackie Chan died, and said she saw it on the CNN web site. Later on I checked all of the news sources, and couldn't find a thing on it.

Then just now, my mom told me it just disappeared off of the CNN site.

This ISN'T the first time they ran this HOAX.

In our explosion of information today, it seems like TPTB can do just about everything to get you distracted. And my mom told me that Chan was 56 according to the news source (but he's really 62).

MSNBC Interview Bails on Black Trump Supporters When They Criticize Media

Oh, sorry! That’s all the time we have for today.

Jacob Rascon was reporting for MSNBC this week from Charlotte, North Carolina and saw an opportunity to interview three black Donald Trump supporters to find out why they’re voting that way. But because their response didn’t fit the narrative his, and other networks perpetuate, the interview was cut short in the nick of time.

A father, mother (Gloria), and daughter (Trina) were approached by Rascon and asked their thoughts on Trump’s inner-city policies that have been panned by critics.

“Well, I think that Trump is reaching out to all citizens including African-Americans,” Trina said. “That’s what a president should do for us. He should reach out and try to help people and address problems that are going on in our country.”

Rascon’s baiting queries continued: “Some of the criticisms have been about ‘what do you have to lose.’ What do you think about that criticism?”

Gloria stepped up to the plate and swung hard:

    “My word to all black Americans, one thing I would like to say: let’s not be deceived. Look at the record. Look at the promises that have been made over the past from the Democratic Party.

    “We’re not voting for a party. We’re voting for a man who has been standing by all citizens. He loves America. That’s what I love about him. He loves America. We need somebody that loves America.”

But Gloria wasn’t through, and she took a bit out of the media:

    “And he also loves all people — all people. And there’s that deception out there that he has no black supporters. Wrong! He does.”

And on that note, Rascon had had enough and abruptly ended the interview, just like his cohort did earlier this year when she cut the feed to a black Trump supporter who condemned the media’s constant race baiting:

Here’s another video that’s made the rounds this election cycle showing a CNN reporter put in his place by a black Trump supporter that is sick and tired of the media painting the Republican candidate as a white supremacist. The theme of how the Democratic Party has kept blacks on the plantation makes another appearance here, as well:

America is finally waking up from its long slumber.

Wikileaks Provides More Proof of Media Corruption: Clinton PAC Provided 372 Newsmakers With 80 Sets of Pro-Hillary, Anti-Trump Talking Points

 Wikileaks, through its release of Clinton Campaign chairman John Podesta's emails, has provided a trove of information and irrefutable proof of just how deeply corrupt America's power centers are.

From the Department of Justice to the FBI to the White House and State Department to the one institution meant to be the watchdog of them all -- the media -- America's most sacred institutions have fallen from grace, proving to be nothing more than lackeys beholden to the Clinton machine.

As Wikileaks releases tens of thousands of documents worthy of scrutiny, our media remain silent -- and they do so because they are implicated in the worst aspects of the corruption.

In email #5636 to John Podesta from Mary Pat Bonner -- a powerful "donor adviser" of Clinton -- and accompanying documents attached, we learned that the Hillary Clinton campaign has been working with no less than 372 news makers to shape an anti-Trump narrative across all mainstream media.

Through the email attachments, the pro-Hillary SuperPAC, Correct the Record (CTR) "has identified 372 surrogates including influential and frequent pundits on broadcast and cable news for Presidential 2016 politics and provided them around 80 sets of talking points."

What, exactly, those talking points are all about is made clear on CTR's own website. While CTR states that its mission is to amplify Hillary Clinton's "accomplishments," the PAC is instead exclusively dedicated to smearing Trump and peddling narratives like the one about Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin being bosom buddies (never mind the fact that there is no proof Russia is behind the "hacked" Podesta emails, nor is there proof that the Podesta emails were even hacked at all). The featured image on this post comes directly from CTR's own website, in fact.

Now recall that whenever a Clinton surrogate is interviewed any of the mainstream networks about the Wikileaks revelations, the very first set of talking points they resort to is: "Russia is interfering in our elections to help elect Trump."

With this in mind, consider the email attachments titled "CTR" in the email linked to below. It provides documentation about how hundreds media members are using pro-Hillary talking points. Those documents can be accessed here. Under the subheading "ACTIVITIES" CTR describes the extent of the media's collusion with camp Clinton:

    MEDIA RELATIONS: Correct The Record staff members have conducted over 900 on-the-record and off-the-record media interviews, including over 150 since CTR became independent of AB, to correct facts in stories going to print or on air, to counter-punch and balance Republican attacks on Clinton, and to kill negative stories before they are even published.

    IMPACTING THE DIALOGUE: CTR has identified 372 surrogates including influential and frequent pundits on broadcast and cable news for Presidential 2016 politics and provided them around 80 sets of talking points, background materials and briefings on topical issues to defend and accurately portray Clinton and her record since the split, more than 400 in total.

    Correct The Record hosted 8 media training sessions in New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Colorado, Minnesota, Michigan, DC, and at the DNC meeting, attended by nearly 150 surrogates since the split. In total, CTR has held 16 training sessions in California, New Hampshire, Iowa, Nevada, and South Carolina. To better prepare themselves to defend and promote Hillary Clinton, over 200 surrogates have attended these trainings.

    Correct The Record also distributes media advisories to 960 members of the national media and 10,756 regional reporters in 28 states including Wisconsin, Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, Iowa, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Colorado, California, Virginia, North Carolina, and Ohio. Talking points and memos are also distributed regularly to 369 televisions producers and bookers.

That is an astounding reach -- one that surpasses what we already knew about the media's collusion with Clinton to date -- and explains perfectly why we are not seeing Wikileaks revelations covered in mainstream media.

For reference, Mary Pat Bonner's firm, The Bonner Group, is deeply invested in the left-wing machine, raising tens of millions for progressive groups for which she receives a hefty cut. She is also linked to progressive operative David Brock (who is featured in the seating chart listed in the email below).

A New York Times profile of so-called "donor advisers" wrote that "a constellation of left-leaning nonprofits and 'super PACs' are raising tens of millions of dollars to pave the way for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign — and nearly all of them have paid Mary Pat Bonner a cut."

The Times goes on to name "American Bridge 21st Century, Media Matters for America and the super PAC Ready for Hillary, have paid Ms. Bonner’s consulting firm in excess of $6 million to help them cultivate wealthy donors and raise money, according to tax filings and campaign disclosures."

MSM Declares War On Drudge & All Conservative Alternative Media Websites, Calls Them 'Russian Propaganda' Sites
- They Just Bit The Hand That Feeds Them

Evidently highlighting Hillary Clinton's strange behaviors, her inability to climb stairs without the help of two secret services agents, her habit of falling down,  her passing out on 9/11, her criminal activities, and the fact that Democratic operatives paid protesters to interrupt Donald Trump events, is all "fake news" and Russia propaganda according to the MSM, despite visual evidence, leaked emails and the Project Veritas hidden camera footage.

The Washington Post published a story titled "Russian propaganda effort helped spread ‘fake news’ during election, experts say," where they claim "experts" have determined that the Russians used American Alternative News sites to spread anti-Hillary propaganda during the brutal presidential campaign.

Via Gateway Pundit who quotes the Washington Post article, because I certainly won't link to WAPO.

Russia’s increasingly sophisticated propaganda machinery — including thousands of botnets, teams of paid human “trolls,” and networks of Web sites and social-media accounts — echoed and amplified right-wing sites across the Internet as they portrayed Clinton as a criminal hiding potentially fatal health problems and preparing to hand control of the nation to a shadowy cabal of global financiers. The effort also sought to heighten the appearance of international tensions and promote fear of looming hostilities with nuclear-armed Russia.

Here is how The Hill describes the "news" from the Wapo article:

The coverage was overwhelmingly favorable to Donald Trump, and some of the most notable examples of fake news garnering major traffic online centered on Hillary Clinton’s health, protesters that were allegedly paid to interrupt Trump events, and fears about vote tampering.

"The way that this propaganda apparatus supported Trump was equivalent to some massive amount of a media buy," said the executive director of PropOrNot, who spoke on the condition of anonymity with the Post. "It was like Russia was running a super PAC for Trump’s campaign."

A look at the website Wapo cited, called Propaganda or Not, or PropOrNot, lists hundreds of websites they consider in their "expert" opinion to have spread Russian propaganda against Hillary Clinton, naturally targeting conservative Alternative News websites, including the Drudge Report.

Other websites named include some of the following which many alternative news readers should be familiar with such as Activist Post, America's Freedom Fighters, All News PipeLine, Freedom Outpost, Healthnut News, Zero Hedge, Natural News, Infowars, Prison Planet, We Are Change, SHTF Plan, and many, many more.

Much like the list of supposed "fake news" sites that the LA Times recently linked to, but has since been taken offline, PropOrNot attempts to conflate fakes news with Alternative News, in a concentrated effort to help the mainstream media regain control of the "message."

These coordinated attacks by the MSM against Alternative News websites are nothing more than the MSM's little temper tantrum that they can no longer control the narrative and lead the sheep in the direction the MSM wants them to go and influence their every decision.

BITING THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU

At some point or another almost all Independent news sites, such as ANP, have linked to MSM, for quotes or other bits of information, meaning revenue for the MSM from their online advertising by traffic Alternative News sites have sent them, but no one sends more traffic to the MSM than Matt Drudge, who has been listed as the most influential person in the American media.

By citing a site and a supposed "expert" from PropOrNot, which is attempting to claim that the Drudge Report is pushing Russian propaganda, the Washington post is biting the very hand that feeds them millions upon millions of hits in traffic each and every month, as seen in the chart below, showing how much traffic Drudge has sent to different sites from January to July 2015.




The Washington Post, much like many other MSM outlets, have become dependent on digital revenue versus revenue from their printed publication which has seen a massive decline across the board, so citing a source that claims Drudge is pushing Russian propaganda is nothing short of a declaration of war against Drudge and any website listed that reported on Clinton health issues and criminal activities.

The Drudge Report has moved into second place in the top publishers and publications in the US as of July 2016, according to SimilarWeb,  with 1.472 billion page-views, showing his influence is increasing and any site linked to by Drudge is generating an astounding amount of revenue just from being linked to by Matt Drudge.



Recently Sean Hannity highlighted the mainstream media that had openly opposed Donald Trump, while colluding with the Clinton campaign and called on Donald Trump to "change the 'traditional' relationship that the press will have with the White House, stating in the video below "Now in the day and age of Twitter and Facebook and Instagram, does Trump really need to be granting access to biased journalists that openly oppose him? Just look at the video the President elect released yesterday, it was detailing actions that he will take on key issues during his first 100 days in office. Now Trump can do this and speak directly to you, the American people, without having his words twisted and taken out of context - why not do that?"

Hannity continued on to say "So until members of the media come clean about colluding with the Clinton campaign and admit that they knowingly broke every ethical standard they are supposed to uphold, they should not have the privilege, they should not have the responsibility of covering the president on behalf of you, the American people."

Listen below:



We at ANP happen to agree with Hannity that Trump should freeze out the press, go around them, speak directly to the American people and let the MSM get their "news" via alternative sources, they will report on it either way, but they will not be able to lie as blatantly as they can by being granted first-hand access.

Joe Lockhart, who served as White House press secretary for President Bill Clinton, is quoted by The Hill as stating "Every incoming president has basic, generally agreed upon rules of the road. The Trump team has decided they’ll blow up and the road and build a new one. Where it goes from here will be a test of how far the new president and his team want to push things, and the strength and will of the press to push back."

The article also details the push from the press to demand access to Trump, while admitting "there are no laws requiring that an administration maintain a press pool or even that news outlets have access to administration officials, the briefing room or White House grounds." Furthermore they point out that "Trump has little incentive to go through traditional media channels, some experts say," because "when Trump releases a straight-to-camera video to announce his 100-day agenda — as he did this week, in lieu of a press conference — it elicits the same volume of coverage as a press conference would."

BOTTOM LINE

We think this should also become a movement by Alternative Media sites and aggregation sites like the Drudge Report that link to the MSM, allowing them to generate revenue with their biased reporting and attacks against anyone that questions their official narrative and opposes their attempts to influence the public according to their own political biases and agendas.

This goes well beyond just a boycott of reading and watching the MSM, and directly to draining that MSM swamp and driving them into bankruptcy.

The MSM has killed traditional journalism, perhaps it time to write their obituary and give them the funeral they deserve and we should start with Jeff Bezo's Washington Post.

Tensions rise at CNN as the network aims for Trump
clinton news network

CNN is taking an increasingly negative approach toward its coverage of President-elect Trump, causing at least some tension within the network, inside sources told the Washington Examiner.

Trump, according to a New York Post story, told the network he wasn't happy with their coverage during an off-the-record meeting at his headquarters in Trump Tower this week. Trump critiqued the news media at large during the meeting, but CNN was one of the top targets, according to the Post's report.

Though Trump's team has said the meeting wasn't as tense as the Post's report, two high-level sources at CNN confirmed that their network was a primary target of the president-elect.

"CNN has always pledged to hold Trump accountable and that's what we should be doing," another source told the Examiner. "Since the election, CNN has out MSNBCed MSNBC," the source said, referring to the liberal slant at CNN's competitor. "In the long term, that's a dangerous place to be."

Like any credible news outlet, CNN is expected to scrutinize Trump and his incoming administration. But some inside the network have pointed to recent examples of what they considered to be an excessively hostile stance toward the Republican and his supporters.

During an interview with the New York Times on Tuesday, Trump was asked about his supporters in the so-called "alt-right," a loosely defined nationalist movement in which there is some support for the white supremacy movement.

"I condemn them. I disavow, and I condemn," Trump told the Times during the meeting. He also said he did not want to "energize" them.

But on Tuesday, CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer asked Republican National Committee spokesman Sean Spicer why Trump hasn't disavowed them "more dramatically."

In addition, some of the on-air exchanges with paid CNN contributors who support Trump have left some personnel there feeling uncomfortable.

On Tuesday, CNN contributor and Trump supporter John Philips was positioned opposite Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson to discuss a gathering last weekend of about 200 white supremacists in Washington, D.C., during which they were seen on video saying "Hail Trump."

Philips said in the exchange that the group was a "fringe" segment of Trump's overall support and that it was "unfair" to tie the president-elect to it.

CNN's official account posted the video of the exchange on Twitter, and summarized it as, "Tharon Johnson tells John Philips it's 'insulting' that he is trying to delegitimize and normalize [the] alt-right."

Like other news outlets, CNN has a rule against its on-air talent and contributors publicly disparaging each other or doing anything that might be perceived that way on social media.

But on Wednesday, after a segment featuring Trump supporter and CNN contributor Scottie Nell Hughes and Democrat Christine Quinn, CNN "New Day" anchor Chris Cuomo shared a tweet from a follower.

It said: "Quinn ate Hugh's LUNCH for breakfast on 'New Day'! Glad Cuomo jumped in to seal the deal…"

And earlier this month, CNN shared a video clip on its Facebook account of a heated back-and-forth between paid contributors Kayleigh McEnany, a Trump backer, and Van Jones, a former Obama administration official.

CNN's headline on the video said "Van Jones rebukes trump supporter in clash over internment camp rumors."

The Facebook account for CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360" also shared the video, highlighting it with a caption that quoted Jones saying, "I am disappointed in you now."

Another source at CNN said they felt "certain targeting of certain people" and that "this kind of targeting isn't fair by their own employer."

A spokesperson for CNN did not respond to a request for comment.
