Media Malpractice: 2015 Edition

The american public's confidence in the media reaches an all time low, and the reason is simple. You can't rely anymore that when the media brings you a story, it's written honestly and fairly. Unfortunately today, journalists sometimes look more like activists, and most of the time to the liberal side.

To compile in one blog post all the instances that the media sinned this year wouldn't turn out well. The blog post will be longer than the wall of china (which is a big fat and beautiful wall. Probably thanks to Mr. Trump). Therefore I'll just bring to your light a few of the instances that the media was caught with their Hands in the cookie jar.



That time when some emails leaked out that Mike Allen from politico tried to get an interview with Chelsea Clinton, and promised that he will go over with her all the questions in advance

And the chutzpah of the Washington post for reporting the event as 'Politico gave the GOP a 'liberal media talking point', instead of actually reporting the news as a straight forward terrible journalistic malpractice.
After the Politico emails, some more emails were leaked out, and this time showing how a CNN reporter colluded with Clinton aides into the way she should report some news. fxn.ws/1PajayN


And then some more emails from Hillary were released, and you could see there how influential they were on some reporters at the times.

The old grey lady disregarded lots of journalistic standards this year. They tried to bring down Marco Rubio by reporting how his wife got 13 speeding tickets, and framed it to say that Rubio and his wife got 17 speeding tickets in the past 20 years. They falsely reported that Rubio bought a luxury boat. And so on and on. My time will go to waste if I count out everything. So here's just a few examples of the NYT's dishonesty.


When they singled out the Jewish lawmakers, to try to give the perception that the only reason lawmakers opposed the Iran deal is because of their Jewishness. Disgusting is an understatement.

The hypocrisy of the times is stunning. Theyll go to the lengths of the earth not to offend Muslims, (by censoring any kind of bad stuff against Muhammad), but won't care about making a mockery of the pope, thereby offending thousands of Christians.
Are they just cowards and afraid of the Arabs? Makes sense. If you'll remember this infamous sky news report where the camera quickly turns away of showing the Charlie hebdo cartoon cover,  or the daily news that blurred out the Muhammad cartoon, but didn't blur out the offensive Jew picture,  you'll be forgiven to think that the media are just cowards, running scared of what will happen to them if they say a bad word on the Arabs, but knowing that the Jews and Christians won't do anything, making them into an easy target. Shame!
when they were happy to report that a new study shows that right wing extremists are more dangerous than terrorists. So what if doesn't match the facts. Who cares?



Lets see what some other media outlets have for us.



When gawker ran with this viral story of how Christie got kicked out of the quiet car, and how he was angry. Only for us to find out (via a passenger on the train), that the actual story doesn't even closely resemble the gawker story.





On a different story, but same with CBS. They can't just report the news as is, cuz that will be too damaging for Hillary Clinton. So what will they do? Frame it as a GOP issue, a critics thing, and like that no one will believe it anymore. Clever. Wicked.



When the "open-minded" Vox decided against hosting an article because it might imply opposition to abortion.  I guess in Vox open mind, all opposition is good, as long as it's my position.



When Bloomberg news shamelessly tweeted this, even tho the shooting had nothing of any kind with planned parenthood or with their opponents. But if maybe maybe someone will see the tweet, and make any resemblance with the shooting against the PP clinic (that was done by a right wing idiot who is against killing babies, but apparently not against killing adults), than all the dishonesty would be worth it.

That time when the media in america was obsessed with Cecil the lion, the obsession was so huge that one media outlet even ran a post on how the dentist who killed the lion donated to the romney campaign in 2012, because priorities.
 
BTW, The media obsession was so insane that even Zimbabweans didnt understand why america is making such a fuss out of it, and one Zimbabwean wrote this scathing oped to the times.

This Parody tweet of Salon speaks for itself!

But i saved the best for last. the infamous crazy Melissa harris perry, who is still employed by MSNBC. (Whoever thinks of a reason for why, should please post it in the comments section). this women provides fodder for the entire blogsphere to cover. i tried very hard to pick out the most outlandish stuff she said the past year. it was very hard, but i found a winner.

As known, the woman is obsessed with race issues, seeing race in even in her daily cereal bowl.


After reading all these above examples of media bias,

2015, The year of the terrible iran deal

2015 will go down in history as the year that Iran conned all the world powers into a deal, that at the end of it we'll see Iran emerge as a state with nuclear weapons, and as a massive power player and the biggest terror sponsor in the Middle East.

Why is the Iran deal so bad? Lots of articles were written about this, I'll just bring a very few of them.


                 http://t.co/XGJnzRVMGr




And before i go any further, you just have to read this editorial from the Washington post SLAMMING obama on iran




Obama was so desperate to make a deal with Iran, that he was willing to tolerate every bad behavior from Iran, if only that'll help him come closer to seal the deal.



Duh! Of course it wont delay the deal, that guy is desperate!
The president decided to just mix it all up. instead of holding iran to high standards, he did the opposite. deciding to let the iranians behavior slide thru, whilst holding Israel's feet to the fire instead.
The white house is going to focus on a tweet from an israeli ministers wife, but ignore statements of Iranian leaders themselves! Disgusting!!
No, he wont take their statements seriously, but he'll use it for gutter politics and cheap shots, comparing republicans to Irans hardliners.
This president is everything the iranians couldve asked for!
 Not only that, Iran's Rohani openly boasted that they charmed the world.




Why was Obama so desperate? Cuz the guy has no legacy for his term as president, everything he turned to went so wrong, so he decided that he has to make a legacy for himself. So what if it involves Iran getting a nuclear bomb? That'll only happen 15 years after he leaves office, and less people will tie him to this.

What im saying might be a bit harsh, but this administration is only concerned about the optics, how things will look.  As you can see from the fact that John Kerry blocked a meeting between Netanyahu and Abbas from happening, and all because he wasnt the one to organize it!!! http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/.premium-1.677690?v=735EB2F91F1E27000088C1373339C8EF
                                          Its all about the optics!


The Obama administration knew that if the public will know how bad of a deal they're getting, they would never agree to such a deal. (The number of people supporting the deal is in the tank now, just imagine how bad it wouldve been without the Obama admin deceiving everyone


Just one example of a blatant lie that Obama tried to feed to the public.
how will he get the public on his side? by telling them that there will be "anytime,anywhere" inspections. but what happens when the deal comes out and everyone sees that there is no "anytime, anywhere" clause in the deal? oh, He will lie again! that he never said that therell be 'anytime,anywhere" inspections. Chutzpah? no, Bald faced Liar!!




You know the situation is bad, when even the french are stricter than the US.





There were some people who compared it to the infamous deal that Bill Clinton announced with N. Korea, and which also saw the world getting conned into believing N Korea that they will not develop nuclear weapons. The results are that the world is now a much worse place as a result. The resemblance with Iran is striking!

The Obama bias and the media bias... Against Israel

I've always resisted the notion that some tried to claim that president Obama hates Israel, and is an anti-semite. Unfortunately it's getting harder to resist that.
For the past 2 weeks Palestinians are running wild on the streets of Israel, stabbing people to death, car ramming into people, shooting Molotov cocktails, and much more.
Now, (unfortunately) I wasn't surprised by how the media covered the violence. The media is rotten, (more about their coverage, below). But from the United States, the state department, and the Secretary of State I expected much better.

onto the words of the state department spokesman John Kirby:
“Individuals on both sides of this divide—have proven capable of, and in our view, are guilty of acts of terrorism,” "Both sides".



Ah, did anyone hear of any Israeli that stabbed a Palestinian to death the past month? It never happened. But tens of Palestinians did so to Israeli citizens. But as per the Obama administration both sides are guilty of terrorism. Wow!

Kirby also said the administration has obtained “credible reports” of Israelis using excessive force as it deals with a rash of terrorist murders carried out by Palestinians seeking to cause havoc and spark an intifada. Aha, So now the administration is accusing Israel of using excessive force, By... killing the Palestinians who come to kill them. SICK. (BTW, Bibi responded like a champion)

Let's continue: last week a 13 year old Palestinian took a knife and went on a stabbing spree, seriously injuring a 13y/o Israeli boy. Police shot the Palestinian and neutralized him. A few days later, the head of the PA gave a speech. In that speech he presented a whole different story. He claimed that the 13 year old Palestinian never had a knife in his hand, and that Israel executed him in cold blood.  
Nowadays when everything gets recorded, it didn't take too long, and the Israeli police gave out CCTV footage where you can see the Palestinian boy running with a knife http://youtube.com/watch?v=aCuoKy-sCTE. Than they distributed out pictures of the terrorist in his hospital bed, and pictures of how he's getting spoon fed. (Yes, with money from the taxpayers he wanted to kill). 
In short: Mahmoud Abbas stood up on tv, flat out lied, and incited his people to kill more Israelis.


What did America say: NOTHING!

A week later Obama at a press conference said this: "We also believe that it's important for both [Israeli] Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu and Israeli elected officials and [Palestinian] President [Mahmoud] Abbas and other people in positions of power to try to tamp down rhetoric that may feed violence or anger or misunderstanding." http://fxn.ws/1Pn6dRV
 Sickening! Bibi Netanyahu did not incite anyone, did not lie in his speeches to make anyone go kill people. Mahmoud Abbas did

But Barack Obama won't condemn Abbas. He'll just equate both in blaming them for violence.

the next statement is mind boggling and blood curling, i wouldve never believed that we'll hear such words from an american official.
STUNNING: not only aren't the Palestinians at fault for killing innocent people, but he is blaming the victims!

(As a sidenote. John Kerry is going to the Middle East to try to sit together bibi Netanyahu with mohmoud Abbas. Kerry might be very frustrated with his lack of progress there, and that might make him stab a few people. Beware, you were warned!)

Speaking about John Kerry: it is no surprise to me that Kerry should say such things. After all we're talking about a person who literally blocked a meeting between the Israeli PM and the head of the PA from happening, and all... Because he wasn't the one who was arranging it http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/.premium-1.677690.
 In short, he'd rather that there not be peace, than that it should be, but someone else should take credit for it. Shocking, I know.

So for John Kerry to spin such tragedies in order to take out some political advantages, by being able to blame the Israeli settlements, is just part of the core. (even if the claims aren't true. The facts are that the last few years there are less settlements getting built than before. But please don't disturb Kerry with the truths.)

As for Obama himself. It's hard for me to say that Obama is an antisemite, id much rather say that his feud with bibi is taking him to do things that he shouldn't. But as leader of the free world, it's time for him to stop. He's heading very much into a danger zone, actually rewarding terrorists for their behavior.
