(1,588 posts)All I'm saying is she is pregnant and pregnant women are known to have a lot of hormonal imbalance. I didn't know it could make them dumb. I didn't know it could make them smart. It made my wife want to eat weird shit and sometimes be very emotional. The other point I was making is all I can stand to watch of the news right now is Rachel Maddow. Now go throw rocks at someone else. Geesh...

She seemed/acted like she had no integrity fukkkks left to give today in her interview with congressman. Rather than incisive, she was just deplorably belligerent for zero wins!

(268,998 posts)Here's an excellent take on the media in the US and UK
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100211969232
Enter Fake News and illegally funded campaigns aimed at leveraging widescale public fear of changing socio-economic realities and the ever-pulsing vein of white racism into a multi-tool for getting people to vote against something, against anything, against every bloody thing that pissed them off, because it was all THEIR fault and THEY needed to be taught a lesson. Enter compliant and complicit Media entities that wanted the drama and the controversy, that were so fixated on ginning up an eyeball-dragging horserace that they were quite willing to overlook overwhelming evidence of cheating on behalf of the underdogs if it made for sellable conflict. In Britain, as in America, established and provable facts were put in the dock alongside barefaced lies and debunked conspiracy theories, with so-called experts forced to justify and explain their entire field of expertise in 30 second soundbites while spittle-flecked nutcases in red, white and blue romper-suits were given uninterrupted airtime to puke-funnel any damned thing they wanted into the bemused face of a general public that were less informed at the conclusion of campaigning than theyd been at the start.
