News Is coronavirus a wild card?

So elected officials and opinion writers should not be held accountable for perpetuating lies? These days it seems that all news stories could be deemed opinion pieces. You won't accept any of them so why waste my time?

 

I provided a direct quote from Tucker Carlson in a previous post. Should he retract his statement?

"It now appears there actually was meaningful voter fraud in Fulton County, Georgia, last November," Carlson said July 14. "That is not a conspiracy theory. It's true."

 

He isn’t wrong. Why would he retract?

 

I wonder if some of you even read politifact. The evidence to call Tucker a liar consist of finding someone to quote saying the opposite.

 

No the reason to call Tucker a miserable lying sob is because not one credible bit of evidence that massive fraud occurred has been shown. You exist in an echo chamber where each rumor is reinforced not because proof exists but because it bounces around your empty heads.Tucker is an amplifier of false information…a liar.

 

Well that is false.

Anyway, I’m not gonna be lectured by people who take experimental drugs with no facts.

 

Trumps took the vax. What a fucker. He is unreliable. He shouldn't run for prez again. Experimental drug taking idiot he is. I should not have listened to him. It didn't work.

 

Well it doesn’t work. I think that is pretty fucking clear.

Why is it you guys think bringing up something Trump did means anything? Trump likes McDonalds and eats like shit. I hate McDonalds and eat healthy.

I guess I should vote Democrat now…. Like, what a stupid fucking argument.

 

Would you discredit Tucker like that if he worked for CNN or MSNBC. Never mind. We know the answer.

 

There’re not many so called journalists working for ANY news service I’d trust. Yes I’d do the same for the leftists on MSM.
I take the political leanings of journalists into account and I look at both sides with a jaundiced eye. Do I make mistakes? All too often but I don’t decide whether to accept facts based on who wrote it or where it was published. Too many here do.
