Has the "peaceful protest" coverage cost the media what credibility they had left?

Peaceful demonstration intensified into even more peace

[RelonHusk]

They ain't even trying anymore.

The “protests didn’t cause any spread of coronavirus, in fact it slowed it!”

Might be my all time favorite

This sums it up nicely

[BenchWellington]

I mean, various state leaders and main stream media have flat out said that far right movements and white supremacists are the ones committing these acts.

They lie. Their base enjoys their lies, heck even believes them.

honk honk

[BigNik78]

Nah. The media doesn't care, and neither does any other liberal at this point.

If people still had faith in the media after Kavanaugh and Russian collusion, they're not paying attention. Everything in 2020 is just blasting them in the face with it.

Yeah Reddit eats up whatever **** they spew as long as it supports their narrative, and it always does. Mainstream and social media is creating a generation that is never told they're wrong: as they become increasingly hostile, deranged, and willing to use violence and chaos to get their way, combined with their ID politics + communism history has shown these people will commit atrocities if given the chance.

[Blasting]

Been thinking this. Most people on the right stopped trusting the MSM but unless you’re one of those looney tune blue-haired LGbTQROk people then I don’t know how you haven’t seen through the bullsh*t they’ve pulled during this pandemic.

I was wondering what happened to Christine Blasey Ford, funny how that just evaporated once the left didn't get their way as I'm sure these riots and COVID hysterics will after November. These people are sick

Kavanaugh ordeal made me hate Democrats. Made me hate politics.

Lmfao


Media doesn’t care, they live in suburbs with armed security. They just talk to get views


I wanna see blm destroying cnn headquarters , thats something I can stand behind.

[DDSF1]

What we have witnessed from the media since 2015 has been on a level that I don’t think anyone could have imagined previously. Since the Chinese flu started, and especially since the peaceful protests, they somehow managed to even outdo themselves regarding honest journalism and reporting.

[BenchWellington]

Not a Trumper by any means but the thing I really want to throw out there...

When COVID-19 was first rearing it's ugly head, instead of addressing it then, the left was hell bent on impeaching Trump over insanely bogus claims.

I feel like this gets swept under the rug too much.

They only care once it reaches them

Media is a total joke

Yeah. I've also heard they're planted there by the cops to cause destruction. And their low IQ base eats it right up.

also lol ^

[Vhagar]

What credibility?

Mine too. The mental gymnastics involved are staggering.

Second favorites are the people cheering on the destruction until it gets too close to them

[iabs]

This.

You *******s and all the rest of the conservatives need to realize that this is war, we are discussing the rules while they flipped the table and gave you the finger 5 years ago.

We had a local protest/riot and the comments on the news/Twitter the next day and weeks later were "We were having a peaceful protest until the police started firing tear gas and bean bags at us. That's why we burned the city down!" If you believed the media (which many young people do), you'd think that the police and authority were "evil".

Guess what, liberal left? The police just released the video. It clearly showed people launching rocks up to the size of softballs and bottles at the police. People in the back of the crowd were kicking and punching innocent people trying to drive by. The police station had been covered by graffiti from "protesters" for hours. Once the police saw someone trying to light a Molotov cocktail, they started moving people out. I thought this was a peaceful protest, Molotov cocktail guy?

Shortly thereafter, some 59 year old lady got plunked in the head with a bean bag. Initially, the narrative and her lawyer's story was "she didn't do nuffin!" However, the video shows that she was right in the middle of the group throwing rocks and bottles, she throws a coke/beer can and the police couldn't tell the difference from 100 feet away. Apparently no one told her, "Don't hang out with people who lob rocks at police. You may win a coma-inducing bean bag to the head."

On a side note, I never was a "fake news" guy until seeing the activities of this last 7 months or so. An incredible amount of information is blatantly false and/or hidden on the news and social media. I hope the USA can vote some form of sanity back into our local and state levels of government.

lefties r hippo-crates? who knew lmao
wat dat means principles

[Train57]

Op do you not understand that every second a person of color gets killed by the police

[Schism45]

They showed their true colors in 2015. That was the year that fake news became the norm. Every time I fact checked a story that year it was bogus.

She made off with well over a million dollars and a purple heart for services to victim Hood.

Pelosi & the gang were down in China Town embarrassing Egg Roll Vendors calling Trump wacist.

They can't lose what they don't have.

Trump exposed them for frauds no wonder they hate him so much, even “fact checkers” lost credibility when they turned out to be activists
