Corporate media is a joke. All of it. Yesterday a Washington Post reporter Tweets that because of Trump talking about isopropyl alcohol, prices of it went sky high on Amazon. She posts a pic of an ad, blocks out the quantity, then crops out the photo of a 55gal drum of it and shows the price of $2300 or so... Busted. This goes on non stop. WaPo knows very well that this Tweet will race across social media and because it wasnt published in their paper, no retraction required. They are manipulating people on social media.
WaPo's foreign policy reporting should be suspect...all of it. They have a massive conflict of interest. Bezos has a $600M contract with the CIA and a $53B contract with the Pentagon. By the very definition of why a bunch of media outlets around the world went on their so called fake news list, WaPo should be on it. WaPo has been responsible for some of the biggest lies told about America's rivals. Once Rachel Maddow gets a hold of their stories on the air... it's completely dumbed down for her audience and presented in Alex Jones fashion hysteria. She is the highest paid person on network news... $10M a year. A propagandists.
I forget who misquoted the USA medical official in the last couple of days but he changed the quote "difficult" to "Devastating" in the headline about a fall appearance of Covid. They fully understand as that spreads across social media, 9 out of 10 masses will not read past the headline and accept that as fact and join in the choir. Like I said, corporate media is a joke. - boonerbuck
Well said. You obviously understand what is going on.

Anyone remember this fight? I don't. This is a great doc on it. Rick Ruffus claims kick boxing is superior to Muay Thai and challenges anyone to prove otherwise. One of the top fighters from Thailand takes the challenge but has to fight kick boxing rules almost entirely. It's a brutal fight.

This was the basis for the movie Kickboxer I believe.
I see on here the NFL draft that you guys followed. As some of you know my interest level in football is at 1
I am very curious to see how that sport survives without fans. The best part of that sport is the tailgates , the clown outfits in the stadiums, the body and face painting. How entertaining is 12 minutes of actual game going to be in a three hour period with no fan noise?
It isn’t the media’s fault people are so stupid...
Also, I believe the quote about the fall was that it would be “worse” in the fall because they would be battling the Flu and Corona, and Mr T made the guy come out to set the record straight. It wasn’t going to be worse, it was just going to be “more challenging”.
