    Media Bias

    Sorry, I thought we were sticking to news on DT. “Media Bias? Kamala Harris’s 21 False Claims Unchecked During Debate, According to Breitbart Report” Sep 12, 2024 In her Breitbart News article, Alana Mastrangelo highlights 21 claims Vice President Kamala Harris made during a recent debate that ABC’s moderators did not fact-check. In her Breitbart News article, Alana Mastrangelo highlights 21 claims Vice President Kamala Harris made during a recent debate that ABC’s moderators did not fact-check. The article critiques the media’s failure to challenge Harris, contrasting it with the scrutiny of former President Donald Trump during the same event. Mastrangelo addresses specific points she deems to be false and misleading, starting with the “Very Fine People” hoax, in which Harris repeated the debunked claim that Trump referred to neo-Nazis as “very fine people” in Charlottesville. She also addresses Harris’s comments about Trump’s supposed involvement in Project 2025 and his stance on fracking, both of which Mastrangelo describes as false representations. The article further explores Harris’s claim that Trump contributed to the Afghanistan withdrawal disaster and her argument that Trump’s trade policies caused high deficits. Mastrangelo counters these with data suggesting the deficits weren’t as severe as under previous administrations. She also calls out Harris’s assertion that Trump wants to be a dictator as another unfounded claim, especially in light of the Biden administration’s struggles with foreign policy, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Mastrangelo’s critique includes multiple “hoaxes,” as she calls them, regarding Trump’s stance on abortion, gun rights, and economic issues like a national sales tax. According to the author, Harris painted a misleading picture of Trump’s record, frequently revisiting debunked accusations and ignoring or distorting historical context. The article closes with the assertion that ABC debate moderators did not challenge Harris’s statements, leaving the audience with a potentially skewed perception of Trump’s record, while the same scrutiny was applied to Trump’s responses. Mastrangelo stresses the contrast in treatment between the two candidates during the debate, pointing out Harris’s numerous unchecked claims, which she argues form part of a broader political strategy based on misinformation.

  2. While it is good timing for Israel, it is bad timing for Iran and the US political party in power.
  3. The suspect has now recently been spotted in Far West and is heading south towards Circle C. He was last seen with a handful of Apple Watches and iPhones. Suspect is suspicious looking and has a penchant for buggary and snatching apple products off of unsuspecting people.
  4. That’s me too. We are on vacation this week though so the only alarm would be about a crazy moose or other moose related activities.
  5. I keep my phone in my charger in my kitchen at night.
  6. It’s probably just a new airborne prion disease.
  7. What I really needed was a laugh, cry and fuck you analogy. Too much emotion to your point.
  8. You are partially right - Although, I've enjoyed watching a few games with guys like Carmelo who were unstoppable in a 3on3 setting. The difference is that the men are jacking up shitty 3s and throwing bad alley-oops. The women are all below the rim, missing layups, dribbling the ball out of bounds, passing out of bounds, and slow...
  9. What do you think are the team's problems offensively? Just the O-line?
  10. Just based on the organized crime angle. How many ports are in swing states - Georgia and I'm not sure how big their port is and I doubt we are talking about a lot of votes that longshoremen can pull. I guess the other option is that the longshoremen can have a big impact on prices and can get generous concessions before the election just based on a potential price surge. But would the price increase be enough to swing a large number of votes?
  11. Damn, no time to edit - The more likely case is that the longshore workers are counting on a deal being made because the political party in power cannot afford to have a surge in prices and a scarcity of goods as citizens are going to the voting booths.
  12. I wonder if it is a coincidence that this is happening right before the election. Does the union and organized crime have enough power to let's say deliver Nevada in exchange for a lucrative deal?
  13. Why doesn't Title IX apply to transgender athletes?
  14. What it seemed like people were saying was that A&M added NIL. Is this correct?
  15. What is the deal with Sims? I feel like Banks and Sark are fine with backup plans on offense, but on defense the backup plans disappear after there appears to be momentum and we go back to big game hunting.
  16. Will Auburn be able to hold onto him after the school fires the head football coach?
  17. if the Bloods & Crips can get along, I don't see why conservatives and liberals can't
  18. I'd be fine if the only professional women sport was women's beach volleyball. Even a cougar league would be entertaining.
  19. I think you meant "Why in the red fuck..."
