Showing Original Post only (View all)I had people defending CNN in a few threads the other day, here's how CNN reported Musk's Nazi salute. [View all]
In very odd and circumspect language, CNNs Erin Burnett first called Musks action an odd looking salute. Her on-screen companion added, its not something you see at an American political rally. Newsweek Opinion Editor Batya Ungar-Sargon had another take. This is a man with Aspergers exuberantly throwing his heart to the crowd, the journalist said, calling Musk a friend to the Jews.Fuck all TV news media.
they are all corrupt and on the side of fascism
Yeah Jim Acosta and any good reporter should get the fuck out of there and work someplace better..

Naivete. News is news but the way it's presented can and quite often does lean one way of the other.

Ok. Like I said, news is news, but rarely are just the facts reported. Very rarely.

Agreed. Seems all the billionaire news platform owners are rolling over for trump and moving way right.

Attributing an obvious Sig Heil salute with "Asperger's" isn't being impartial.

Agree. Think if you look at the whole motion, Musk is just an oddball POS who'd still be in his basement but for money.

I'm not letting the ADL gaslight me. I know a Nazi salute when I see it done twice like that.
