Has the general public ever been more aware of media manipulation than now?

There are75 million Americans aware that the main stream media press is little more than just a DNC advertisement

We can see the manipulation of the public through big business with their mask mandates and we see the patterns of talking points being rolled out in front of us

It’s like we’re all watching a play and pointing out really bad acting

No, never close to this level. Trump exposed the masses to their lying and deceit. It’s now a permanent fixture of the Republican Party to slam the media.

I think you underestimate the stupidity of the American population unfortunately.

Why 75 million? That’s kind of a random number.

Manipulated it’s a nice way of saying fake news. And you’re not wrong about bad actors. These networks aren’t just “misguided”. They are intentionally and purposely deceiving the public to push an agenda.

Being book smart is one thing, having common sense is another.

I agree. Also, I don’t think the MSM has ever been more brazenly partisan than they were in the Trump era. MSM bias was at another level during that time. They lied about Trump and they took everything He did out of context. MSM manufactured fake controversies and manipulated narrative to to get Trump out. Never before in my lifetime has there been as much media bias and hostility as the Trump era. This really is a testament to Trump being a true outsider and not a swamp creature. He did things what the other Republican presidents were not bold enough to do.

The main stream media has never manipulated more than it does now.

Just when you think it can't get any worse, it gets worse.

MSM and the democrats are basically the same at this point. This is a video where Jen Psaki is giving out cookies and reporters are showering her with praise.

Can you imagine something like this during the Trump era? Reporters would call this a huge scandal that the Trump administration is bribing reporters.

The scary part is that only 75 million have figured it out. The rest are blissfully ignorant.

Big Tech pushing critical race theory and huge support BLM...is alarming..

But worse is what comes from Academia...

We know the FBI and CIA are corrupt.

Half the GOP sound off like Democrats...

We maybe waking up...but is it too late?

We appear to be surrounded and perhaps outnumbered

They aren't aware of it. Maybe we are, but most of them are blissfully unaware.

My pop swears by “the news.”

He also has a bad case of TDS.

It is sad too, because he is a good man.

No they don’t...told my FIL how HALF of the CDC, NIH, etc employees under Fauci and those other fricks refused the vaccine...just went straight over his head that the government agencies in charge of this “vaccine” are not even taking it....but other government agencies are forcing it down the American public’s throat.

They either fail to see this...or they choose not too because they already ran off to get vaxed and don’t want to hear it.
