MAGA HATS MEDIA BIAS

[Box Ox]

Went to a meeting for athletes and parents at our school. AD made it EXTREMELY clear that conduct unbecoming caught on social media would be taken as conviction.

Is wearing a MAGA hat conduct unbecoming of an athlete at your school?

That is to say each institution can decide for themselves. Liberty University will probably give him a full ride.

On Monday, the Washington Post quietly issued a correction to their story about the activist, saying that while he served in the Marines, he was never deployed to Vietnam.
Correction: Earlier versions of this story incorrectly said that Native American activist Nathan Phillips fought in the Vietnam War. Phillips served in the U.S. Marines from 1972 to 1976 but was never deployed to Vietnam.

Fake news.

It's totally impossible to separate all the nut jobs hanging around D.C.

Especially in congress

 

[newfie]

The point is they reported before investigating that there was a full video.

It’s everything that’s wrong with journalism right now.

Yep shoot first and mumble a retraction later

Bury the retraction or just do a stealth edit. Knowing most people will remember the first headlines.

So you are saying when Kennedy was shot that before they announced and reported anything the checked their facts and looked for any and all corroborating information?

No you say

Kennedy has been shot details to follow as we learn more

 

[newfie]

Everyone who was willing to talk to them.

Not true and you know it. More fake news

 

[newfie]

Yes. Everything is on social media nowadays and everybody, high school kids most of all.

Went to a meeting for athletes and parents at our school. AD made it EXTREMELY clear that conduct unbecoming caught on social media would be taken as conviction.

Conviction with no trial ?

He stood there and did nothing

Actually no, a more likely scenario is your true identity is revealed, which puts you at great risk of turning up dead for the way you've twisted many posts to smear those who constantly get the upper hand in arguments with you. Your fragile ego can't handle losing so you resort to vile accusations while hiding behind your anonymity.

 

[bbsam]

He stood there and did nothing

Then he has nothing to worry about.

 

[bbsam]

Conviction with no trial ?

Of course. Kids can be expelled for actions posted on social media.

 

[bbsam]

He stood there and did nothing

So if a punk kid got up in you face Al Gore style, that would be “nothing”?

 

[Turdferguson]

Not true and you know it. More fake news

Is it?
They seem to have no problem with access now.
I am shocked a law and order guy like yourself is defending a group of people who were breaking the law like that mob was

I didn’t say it was. The kid wasn’t arrested, was he?
