The man who wrote the initial fake outrage article is now farming Trekkies for the next phase of Andy Weir arguments.

Readers are being jerked around by James Whitbrook, who I can’t tag because he blocked me for asking why he made clickbait headlines on this topic.

Who has won a Stanley Cup, Olympic gold in the same year? Winning Olympic gold and the Stanley Cup in one year remains one of hockey's rarest feats. Check out who has achieved the honor now.

@espn.com

Keith Jenkins telling the masses that Ken Morrow "lead the NY Islanders to the Stanley Cup in 1980" is pretty funny.

Bossy, Trottier, Potvin, Bourne, Goring, Gillies but it was Morrow leading them.

I saw that and rolled my eyes. NYT just can’t bring themselves to state the truth plainly. It always has to be euphemism #BadJournalism #Weak #Craven

Compare this piece to NYT’s recent coverage of corruption in Zelensky’s admin. Had no problem calling it corruption, using that word, they didn’t leave it to the reader to come to a conclusion. #shameful #BadJournalism #DoubleStandard

Exactly. It’s like covering a baseball game without giving the final score and just expecting that readers will infer it from the story.

Western Media controls the narrative.

See, These students were slaughtered by Israel.
But, THEY don't out THAT in the Headline.

They omit Israel's culpability.
This is a clear example how Zionists warp the Story.

Israel slaughtered students, waiting for Visas.

Shame on @jaketapper.bsky.social for not following up with the obvious fact check that this rep-elect can’t do any of that UNTIL he swears her in and he knows this. #MAGAMike should not have gotten away with that unchecked. #BadJournalism

Another example of bad numbers in journalism:
The Epoch Times, in an alarmist cover story today, says Chinese interests are buying up American farmland.
Turns out these foreign investors own one in every 2,800 acres of American agricultural land.
In other words, bupkis.

You’d think a pro reporter would get “racist homophobic hate mongering” is awful even if “civil” (whatever that hell that means: racism in any vernacular is not civil by obvious definition.”

Screen shot of a newspaper headline. The headline reads "Shot girl has bullet in brain, shows signs of recovery." The subhead reads "Sophia Forchas, 12, is in critical condition since Annunciation shooting".

Yes, Local Paper. This certainly is a sensitive way to refer to a child who was injured in a mass shooting. #BadJournalism #GIRD

This comes to us courtesy of NBC ‘News,’ tagline: “The news with peacocks in it!” Bless their hearts 😆

The headline I’m mocking is: “Interstellar object has astronomers debating its mysterious origin.”

Uh, yeah, I sure hope they do 🤦‍♀️

Why are you kissing Trump's aS$ with this post? He hates you and all you stand for. He is NOT "well". Have you seen any of the videos or photos? There is no proof he played golf this weekend. If he did, he would have shared the video himself. #Unbelievable #Disappointing #BadJournalism #DoBetter

Some yahoo on KTLA says this has nothing to do with immigration. They’re full of shit. This is ENTIRELY about immigration, government overstep, and corruption, rooted from that felon in the white house with that Nazi interloper he invited in.

If he were a few shades darker would the media paint him in such subdued light? Their track record says otherwise. Just based on the description of the perpetrator you can tell that he was a white male even prior to identifying him by image. Is this why the conviction rate is so low?
