I just noticed a commercial on Newsmax. Henry Repeating Arms.
Have to turn over to Tucker here in a bit, but I think I'll return to Newsmax until Shannon at 11:00.
Media makes **** up. What makes you think media on your side does not make **** up? The fact that it’s your side doesn’t imbue right wing media with wholesome goodness and truthiness. They have the same side-interested dynamics as any. They have as much reason to lie as the other.This may well end up being the case, but journalism as it used to be is dead, including Fox News. we will get the real news from sources that we may have never heard of before. Have you looked at any of the independent reviews of the vote data? It is clear the cheat is in, now can they turn things on that data, or do feelz win?
Is truth that thing you hear when people aren’t critical of your side?I am with you on Newsmax.
Not quite as fancy a set and the people not quite as pretty but I like the cut of their jib.

I was referring to the part where you said you may get truth from sources you’ve never heard of. Well, how do you know that what you get from them is the truth? I do think that independent journalists are probably the news of the future, if they’re allowed by the establishment to have a platform. That doesn’t make them “true”. But it can be. For example, you see CNN report about how peaceful a protest was, and then you watch a livestream from individual journalists on the ground, live, all the while CNN is saying the opposite of what you’re seeing. But, that’s also not always the complete story either.I said nothing about sides, mine or anyone else. I said journalism, as it used to be is dead, and it is. When everyone has a video camera and video publishing studio in the palm of their hand, news will be decentralized, to the people...

I dunno. I don’t really trust anyone for news. I like watching Tim Pool, but he’s biased. I don’t trust his “news” either. I hear some claims made as news, and if I care enough about the issue I’ll dig into it to the extent that I can and do my own fact-checking.
If that’s the case I really don’t see much more than bias being the basis of belief. If that’s true then why bother believing anything? It is possible to fact-check to some depth on a lot of things. But there are some things we can’t. This is one of those things, yet some people are developing some very deep beliefs based on how information titillates their ears. I think we have the best shot at accurately aligning our perception of reality if we first define a range of where the truth most likely is. So in this case I’ve defined that range as somwhere between andAnd that is the rub, without news sources with credibility the consumer must make more effort to discern the "truth" but are usually just left with competing narratives...
