All that ball gargling really helped ya there NYT
Yep, we all knew they’d be the first victims of the Trump dictatorship. Hope selling out the country for a few months of “Biden old” headlines was worth it, rat bastards.
They're all owned by oligarchs. Trumps tax cuts alone will probably net those oligarchs 10x more profit than the orgs they own.
Imagine writing about this dude fucking over all of the people that helped him gain power at minimum once a week for 8 years, and then thinking that it's still a good idea to do the same.
Yet another example of leopards that aren't gonna eat my face.
I fucking ADORE this schadenfreude right now.
And now they control the media. Just like the Nazis.
They are the nazis.
Oh yea this comparison always goes over well
What problem do you have with calling Nazis Nazis?
They need you to include "neo."
They think you're saying they are literal members of a defunct German political party responsible for the Holocaust.
Ah. I don't think it's necessary cater to Nazi's needs or lack of intelligence lol
Even with all the left-on-left punching we do on lemmy, I do appreciate how most of us gang up to stab the Nazis.
This you?
Well they can always stop being Nazis and the comparisons would stop.
Seems like is did go over well, and you should go back to Reddit.
This is pure Reddit nonsense.
Yeah cause all those capitalist/imperial outlets were constantly criticizing and resisting the pentagon. \s \s \s
This is how trump repays those who were complicit in his rise.
Which is amusing because The New York Times spent months working to get Trump reelected. And almost certainly had a much greater impact on his election victory than either Breitbart or OAN. They tanked their credibility for some cheap headlines and still got the boot. lol
Yes, they were the complicit ones I was talking about.
Ah right. Sorry I misread your comment. It’s getting pretty late over here.
No worries. In retrospect, there was ambiguity.
Jesus fucking Christ the fascism is here.
I suppose if we’re going to be Russia we needed our own RT and Pravda. Ugh… We’re so fucked.
You mean VOA and NPR?
Well, that's a 1st amendment issue, that's an incoming lawsuit they're going to lose
Lawsuit, sure. But Lose? Have you been paying attention?
If the lawsuit isn’t thrown out by some rat-fuck judge, the result will have absolutely no impact on the current machinations of the diet-Nazis.
It’s going to take more than a stern talking to if you want to root out fascists.
No, it's not.
Hegseth isn't restricting those outlets from appearing at Pentagon briefings; rather they're not being allowed to maintain an office on-site. While elevating right-wing liars such as Breitbart and OAN is obviously terrible, the other outlets will still be attending whatever propaganda rallies Hegseth holds.
Do laws stop fascists?
No, but LAWS do.
How the fuck did the Huffington Post get included?
It's like the token liberal coming on as a guest on Fox News. They're there to be a strawman to attack and mock. Anything they say can just be twisted into, "HuffingtonPost is an obviously biased liberal hack. But see? We're being fair!"
Ah. Good point.
It's all the same capitalist/imperial trash.
Forgot to mention HuffPost will also be getting an office.
I don't feel sorry for them at all. All mainstream media can suck a bag of dicks and die at this point.
I absolutely hate the man. My rule is to instantly turn off video or skip any article with him in it. At this point he is pretty much mainstream as well so he can take that bag all the way to hell.
NPR is okay, way better than most major media sources. I would not consider them mainstream.
Yea use that broad brush to paint yourself into a corner!
No one needs to advertise the nytimes or top media… you could do better to push a hot take opinion or top media…
The issue is important.
All mainstream news betrayed us. Please point out a major media outlet that is not a propaganda outlet for the wealthy.
