No-News News


We have talked about this a lot here but it's worth repeating. Fox News is NOT news. Every news outlet gets it wrong from time to time, but they're not lying. When someone claims an outlet such as CNN or The New York Times lies, they're never specific. It's an "I know you are but... Continue Reading →

State News Fake News


I quoted an everyday ordinary man-on-the-Moscow-streets in yesterday's blog who refuses to believe Russia has committed war crimes in Bucha, and probably anywhere else. He said, "If this is not fake, my brain refuses to accept it." Since he lives in Russia, the news he has access to probably won't ever tell him it's not... Continue Reading →

Fake News Genius


A lot of Russian propaganda outlets are being shut down in the west by western governments and private corporations. Russia state-owned outlets that have been operating freely in Europe and the United States, RT and Sputnik, have taken a huge hit and are being blocked. While the west is blocking Russia's fake news outlets, much... Continue Reading →

Stupid Son Of A…


There may be a lot of douches over at Fox News, but there are only two Doocys (not to be confused with "deuce," but it's OK if you do confuse them). They have two Doocys but they can't keep one Shephard Smith. Yesterday, the president of the United States of America (in case you're a... Continue Reading →

Murderer MBS


One of my biggest problems with Donald Trump is that the leader of the free world is supposed to set an example for the rest of the world to follow and be a champion of freedom. That includes freedom of the press because even as a president may fight with journalist, he is still supposed... Continue Reading →

Bigger Than Ukraine


I don't believe the press is infallible. They make mistakes. Usually, when I have an issue with a LEGITIMATE news outlet (something Trump cultists can't differentiate from propaganda sites), it's over how, what, and how much they cover a topic. I don't really see actual news organizations lying. That said, I believe in a free... Continue Reading →

Enemy Of The Saudi People


The United States is a beacon of freedom for the rest of the world. We present an example that encourages other nations to follow. Past presidents have been champions and ambassadors of American freedom. It's what the world expects from us. Citizens in oppressed nations need to hear it from our leaders. Our most important...

Enemy Of The People


The FBI arrested a 68-year-old man in Encino, California Thursday for making repeated threats against The Boston Globe, which included the catchphrase "enemies of the American people." Where have we heard that phrase before? It's one of Donald Trump's favorites which he uses against news outlets that print information he considers critical of him, like... Continue Reading →

Newspapers Strike Back


This Thursday, over 70 newspapers (so far) will run coordinated editorials defending a free press from Donald Trump's attacks that the media is the "enemy of the American people" and "fake news." It's being coordinated by The Boston Globe. I probably have several newspaper clients participating in this, but one that's definitely on board is... Continue Reading →

Freedom Undefended


You know that oath the president takes upon assuming office? It's when the incoming president swears to defend and protect the United States. Yeah, that one. Donald Trump mouthed the words at his inauguration but he's not defending or protecting our nation. Trump chose to start his second presidential trip to Europe in Poland, as... Continue Reading →
