Ben Meiselas tweets: “The media has failed us. We will rebuild it.”

And his Meidas Touch streaming network has more subscribers than many of the TV networks have viewers.

He’s all in for Murdoch lowlife Will Lewis as publisher of the Washington Post and he praises Trump’s “tremendous grace and courage.”

so they get a skewed sampling.”

Professor Allan Lichtman is a rare voice of sanity amid the corporate media hype and the Democratic party panic. 

Where are the calls for Trump to drop out, following that shit storm of a stemwinder last night?

Jennifer Rubin tweets: 

“CNN and other broadcasts have reached a new low in RNC coverage, fawning over ‘unity’ and ‘young Vance’ – ignoring we are seeing a fascist party overflowing with criminals plot the downfall of America, a VP who is the single most radical and unqualified in history. No pushback on lack of information on Trump’s injury. It’s access journalism at its worst. It’s not the media we need to defend democracy.”

Needless to say, viewership is down as spectators flee to independent media.

The idea that Trump is somehow fit and Biden is somehow not is one of the most pernicious lies ever promoted by the GOP and its mouthpieces in the corporate media.

The parade of Fascist freaks on view at the GOP convention in Milwaukee surpasses the freak show of 1992. And we’re only halfway through this one.

Btw,  in the 32 years since then, have we ever seen anti-Semitism displayed as proudly as the GOP is doing this week? 

which is a rag that can’t even be given away. But it provides a megaphone for his totalitarian propaganda, so he doesn’t care how much it loses. Whereas the Murdoch hacks now running the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal, which are imperfect but legitimate newspapers, have begun campaigns to shame and humiliate their writers, accusing them of being sub-par because these papers, too, are losing money. They’re also using drops in readership to justify a planned degradation of both papers.

Remember when Democratic Senatorial candidates ran against Obama in 2014? 

We saw how that turned out.

Mayor Adams wants to destroy the 1907 landmarked Tony Dapalito Recreation Center on Seventh Ave. South and Carmine Street. Obviously a developer friend/funder of the Mayor wants to put up a condo tower there.

After being closed for four years during which its structural problems could somehow not be fixed, Adams is reaching into the DeBlasio playbook. The ex-mayor demolished the landmarked houses on Eighth Avenue and 14^th St. by claiming irreperable structural problems; the Landmarks “Preservation” Commission was in on the scam, holding in its possession a report that showed the structural issues were solveable.

And so now Adams is insisting that the recreation center–which offers membership at far lower prices than private gyms–cannot be fixed (no will, no way, right?) and announcing peremptorily that the designated lndmark must be torn down.
