Kellyanne Conway was on Meet the Press this morning. More talk about crowd size.

Then she mentions "alternative facts". :roll: Alternative facts = LIES! During the whole interview- she avoided questions, whined and yelled and just acted very immature.

This is only day 2 of Trump and friends meltdown. If the republicans in congress are smart at all- they will investigate, look into ethics violations, look into conflicts of interests, get Trump's taxes and start the impeachment process sooner than later! America can do much much better than these brats!

I guess this must mean you'd prefer the Obama/Hillary hand off of power???? Maybe start another mid-East conflict in their spare time between golf outings??? Or I bet you'd like to see them bombing some helpless families??? Maybe a children's hospital or two???? These have all been in the news. Hillary promised 8 more years of the same thing. What's wrong....Trump hasn't killed enough orphans yet to satisfy you?

What short sighted beasts we have become...and just to make sure we all have our Big-Macs....pretty disgusting, wouldn't you say???

I watched too. I couldn't stay focused. It was too disjointed. Almost unhinged, really.

But they have been caught out time and time again, though funnily enough the media doesn't remind anyone.

there's plenty of good unbiased media criticism out there. Check out the show On the Media. The most easily measurable metric and best criticism of the mass media is their record on publishing and promoting retractions. Just guess who came in at the top of the list on that front, but it's no excuse for how bad all of them are.

Read wikileaks.


I think you just proved my point.


That it's hard to do? People probably died getting that information to Wikileaks(look up murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich), it exposed what has always been true about our media and now we have proof.

There's no point trying to reason with some people. They simply don't care about women and children being bombed to pieces, unless the media tells them to care. They might magically start to care now if such things are done on Trump's watch. sickening :x

Wrong. The leftists, but not the Dem establishment, have loudly criticized the drone program.

:roll: You never see anything wrong in Trump and you just deflect back to previous candidates or previous presidents.

Talk about Trump! Why hasn't he released his taxes? Why must he send out his press secretary so quick to whine and complain about CROWD SIZE! Oh no the poor media! OH NO they hurt Trump's feelings again. He doesn't need Twitter to whine anymore- he can send out Spicer, Conway and others to do it for him. PATHETIC!

If Trump had his way- anyone that disagreed with him would be silenced. Sickening! That is censorship. He needs to be a mature adult, period. People in his cabinet need to be mature adults. His supporters need to be mature adults as well!

As I've said before- if people can maturely discuss things with me, I'm all for it. But you rarely do that. So I'm done with replying to you now.

Well, you weren't very specific about who you did mean

I gotta say I spewed cereal all over the table when I read "Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Donald Trump, said the White House press secretary gave "alternative facts". Alternative facts. Unbelievable. Lets take a major screw up and give it one of the stupidest terms anyone ever came up with. If she had just said, "we really screwed up on that and we're sorry" it would have gained some respect.

This is bad. This is really bad. Not a national crisis or anything , just the epitome of lameness.

Fox says the most things which require retractions, but hide them the deepest. NYT needs fewer, but they underplay the seriousness of their ethical lapses in the retractions. They get held to a higher standard, because they are as a statistical certainty, a more reliable source than Fox on average.

Trump releasing his taxes reminds me of the Obama birth certificate thing. "Why won't Obama show us his birth certificate!? What's he trying to hide!?". Trifles, just silly little trifles.

That's the most effective false equivalence I've seen all morning, and I've been watching the news. Congratulations!
