AG Jeff Landry vs. The Advocate

The Hayride is pretty sad

Wouldn’t be surprised to find out that GumboPac is after Jeff Landry. They have to spend their money somewhere now that they bought the Governor’s office again.

Did you watch any of the video Landry's brother put out? It's so boring. should have had DJ Rhett do it to make it more watchable.

Exactly

They dump on the advocate and don’t even know exactly what the advocate is publishing

I love how Scott McKay gets outraged at the Advocate having a bent and an editorial slant while he’s the mouthpiece for the Landry/ Bollinger/ Kennedy/ Grigsby/ LABI crew

I mean if you are willing to equate a right-wing blogger with the official journal of record for the state of Louisiana, that's fine with me.

Not sure you meant to throw the Advocate under the bus like that though.

Neither one really bothers me because you know the slant and can adjust accordingly, but the righteous indignation from McKay is hilarious.

Fair enough. To me there is a big difference. I don't care about an organization that purports to be biased and is e.g. MSNBC. They are what they are.

What drives me nuts are "news" organizations with clear bias but pretend they aren't. To me it undermines their credibility and trust in the press in general.

And then there are those (not you) who simply don't believe these news organization have a bias.

OK, that's enough, hope I don't derail this thread.

Yes I’m willing to equate “the official journal of record for the state of Louisiana” with any piece of crap source you care to name. As a matter of fact I cannot think any blogger can be more biased than the Uber biased advocate. Maybe the same but not worse.

The Advocate is owned by a liberal Democrat and staffed by liberals. It’s only good point is that it is at least owned by a Louisianian instead of Yankees like the Pickyournose was.

My neighbor gives me her Advocates so my dog can crap on them. Of course I must keep his shots current because who know what that liberal rag might infect him with otherwise!

Does Mckay claim his site to be neutral, fair and non partisan?

Who the hell do democrats have to run for Governor in 2023?

They have no bench and the republicans will not make the same mistake they did in 2015 letting JBE sneak into the runoff uncontested without so much as a single mailer, ad spot or even social media post against him.

I think it's more likely they're going to try to get behind a RINO that's palatable to them and they can play ball with and that's what they were doing with Jay Dardenne in 2015 before JBE pulled the upset out of his arse.
