It should teach us to punish all war criminals to the fullest extent of the law or else liberals will rehabilitate them and engage in historical erasure.

Being a communist doesn’t make you an unbiased critic in this case.

being unbiased and magically "objective" is nonsense anyways and any good journalist will tell you that.

It's not about your views, it's about how you convey the story. You can have opinions on things, and even voice those. Bias is subtextual, implying that your opinions or views on a matter are the correct ones.

Which is why I do not respect his persona on here.
He may be a fine fellow in real life but his bias and positioning renders his views on here as disingenuous.

They point to an invisible boogey man to justify their lack of diligence in maintaining journalistic standards. That pretty much sums up the state of journalism today. They have completely dropped the pretense of pursuing the truth in favor of pushing their personal ideologies. That is propaganda, not journalism, comrade.

i dunno, journalism is owned by a few corporations, the state is increasingly going after journalists, print media is dying. MSM is a sham.

everyone views the world differently. you can see different things. if your honest about it, then thats fine. some people choose not to see. kant says people choose to decieve themselves.

People can deceive themselves all they want, It's purposefully attempting to deceive others that is the problem. Journalism is not owned by anything or anyone. It is a profession that is pursued by people who care about the truth, and are willing to push through their own personal filters in an attempt to align their subjectivity more closely with objective reality. Propagandists who claim the title of journalist are nothing but usurpers.

What would you replace it with?

 

[Sportello]

Greenwald and Taibbi are Russian stooges.

Pretty sure they will come out for a Tulsi/Yang ticket.

 

[rickyb]

What would you replace it with?

likely something with no ads. probably publicly funded or by donation. and power corrupts too so something more decentralized. ive heard the answer before but i forget. and then why dont MSM pay to use the public airwaves? france also has equal coverage for candidates so you dont end up with trumps empty podium getting more coverage than bernie sanders.

would you imagine that! them preferring Tulsi over the other more corrupt candidates.

lay off the blow; youre a poor judge of character.
