I worked for a large company.

The fucking owner didn't ever tell me what to do. Ever.

Nor did he tell my direct supervisor what to do. Ever.

What 'smears'?

You're above criticism and always correct? I'll take that into consideration.

You know what I'm referring to and your defensiveness tells me plenty. Show me where I ever told you what to do.

Why not just stick to the facts? If you can't do that, then maybe your contentions aren't grounded in truth.

I answered your PM.

The last line tells the tale, probably over your head like it was a year ago.

I was making a point (over your head again) that the owners of newspapers DO NOT CONTROL the reporters any more than the owners of my company controlled me.

Suggesting you consider something is rather different than telling you what to do. Defensive much?

If you think who owns the media outlets have nothing to do with editorial content or news reporting, again, I'm not sure there's much point in discussing things with you because you're entrenched in your illusions.

That's right. Brush it the fuck off as usual.

Everybody is 'entreched in their illusions' but you see everything crystal clear, right.

I don't think so.

In a corporation, there are basic guidelines sent down by upper management on how employees are expected to conduct themselves. They don't have the time or inclination to micro manage.

The Washington Post's social media policy is not inhibiting reporters from reporting, it's to keep stupid shit off FB that might embarrass the paper.

You insisted that it leads to 'self censorship' and that's just nuts, except in the context of social media posts.

I'll respond to your PM later. It's bad enough arguing with wing nuts, let alone someone who shouId be against Trump, but seems to hate Democrats worse these days.

I grow weary of this conspiratorial nonsense tonight.

Have a great night.

If I hadn't held the door for the CNN reporter doing it right in front of my own eyes, as well as seeing it elsewhere and hearing stories from journalists themselves then I'd be sceptical too.

What's your evidence for the idea that the big 6 media outlets have no biases? Did they give all the presidential candidates evenly?

Do they report crimes committed by corporations like they cover those committed by individuals?

When I was younger, I used to wonder why Boeing advertised heavily on the Sunday talk shows like Meet the Press. Strange how those shows never said anything unflattering about Boeing, hmmmm? After all, I know you're in the market for a new 737, aren't you? I know I am! o_O

The only man without bias is a dead man.

They try to be objective for the most part. It can be difficult with an asshole as president.

And Jesus Christ, holding the door open for someone is hardy an enlightening experience.

If 10 different members here held that same damn door open, they'd have 10 different opinions on what happened.

Are you willing to state you're bias free and perfectly objective?

Say yes, I like to laugh.

That isn't by definition, a lie.

Would you be happy if they published the nuclear launch codes? What is it you want to see?

See the article I just posted in the Mark Blyth economics thread.

Does it perchance occur to you that the omissions might follow a pattern, one of advancing a perspective of events that serves the purposes of those already in power?

That's an opinion piece, nothing more.

Do you often confuse opinion pieces with news?

Massive difference between the two, no?

News vs. opinion?

Now tell me all news is opinion, OK?
