No News for you, 1 year!

There seems to be a lot of news source "concern". It is so absurd in some OPs I even start to get confused...MSNBC may not be good enough.
I will agree hate sites and hate groups (per SPLC ), Blaze, Daily Caller, WND, Hannity and limbaugh. I get that.

I'm not going to do spend more time vetting a news website than I did to find the news article.

At the end of the day this is a discussion board, not a peer review board.
Hold you news website concerns for your round table discussions at your think tank job.

Maybe it used to work? But not nowadays.

I am thinking that someone's entire arsenal of "online" weapons is attacking the source, paying for twitter feeds and followers, condescension, lol, FFS, and this symbol - And lies, and damned lies from people who are disgusting, like Brock.

It is fun to check off those items whenever something unpleasant about Hillary hits the airwaves. When a person who is used to controlling things loses that control, they get kinda nasty.
