The corporate media is scared to death of the "new media" and trash it every chance they get. Right after the election, I recall the legacy media doing something they had previously never done. Only a day or so apart, 1) Fake Jake Tapper mentioned Dan Bongino in a non-flattering manner, and 2) The idiots on The View took something Joe Rogan said out-of-context and stupidly mocked him.

We need to both know and rember that last October, one month before the election, both Merrick Garland and Chris Wray said that a major focus going forward was going to be suppressing "Hate speech and misinformation." That's code language for stifling free speech from those who would dare to tell the truth about the corrupt Deep State and evil Globalism.

If they had "won" on November 5, Elon and X were going to be in Deep trouble. Podcasters like Rogan, Carlson, Bongino, etc. were going to be in jeopardy, too.

1) The corrupt legacy media NEEDS TO DIE.

2).New Media, in various forms, needs to compete in the marketplace of free speech and ideas, and the best of New Media needs to not only survive, but also thrive.

It's CBS, which is being sued by Trump for $20 billion for election interference. Of course 60 minutes is not going to be friendly to Trump.

Cut off the pharmaceutical commercials on TV and most of this shite goes away.

When I was young I loved to watch 60 Minutes. Back then they had real investigative journalists. You could not pay me to watch that crap they put out today.

Whatever became of the Kamala Harris interview edit? Last I heard was the transcript was going to be turned over to someone but I never heard anything after that.

Was it really or were we being lied to?? We had nothing but the main TV networks and local newspapers.

I turned that shite off this evening after the golf tourney and made sure Alexis hear me say "not watching that propaganda bullchit"

You laugh but those devices listen to everything you say and know exactly what you are responding to when it comes to media.

Pelley claiming Team Trump did not want to appear on the segment to counter this 60 Minutes hack hit piece is likely an unashamed lie. Hopefully Karoline Leavitt gets an opportunity this week to tell the truth about 60 Minutes allegedly contacting Team Trump for participation in the segment



They would edit his or his teams responses to advance their narrative. This is a known fact.

How about a modicum of balance in the story presenting the other side of the story and explain WHY Trump shut it down?

Biden said he knew it was illegal to give student loan relief, but did it anyway. He said this on 60 minutes. I remember some idiot said he never said it. lol

Well, enjoy it and get your money's worth because with everything DOGE has uncovered thus far, I'm sure they have been getting funding by our tax dollars via USAID or some other nefarious source.
