Mantis42 posted:Even if its done for the wrong reasons, this is actually good. Yes I'm sure there will be no negative repercussions to the DOJ loving over the media critics of the President. I'm sure these massive companies will forgo their merger to defend the Freedom of the Press and not just censor CNN or sell it off to comply.

I like Trump's new twitter gimmick: "How close can you get to The 14 Words before people notice". I'm gonna guess 15, but it's 'Merica, so he'll probably have to go for the straight quote.

Again, I'm not defending that comment from some time ago (digging up people's old posts seems to be the gift that keeps on giving), but in what world would that constitute a threat? I don't think Anthony Weiner read my post and felt cyber bullied.

Here I though Trump was against the merger all along, on principle. http://variety.com/2016/biz/news/donald-trump-deals-like-att-time-warner-merger-destroy-democracy-1201897805/ I mean...you don't think he might have been lying, do you?

She whispers a person's name in Huma's ear and three days later it shows up in the obituaries.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Speaking of CNN what the gently caress is going on with this Reddit user thing 95% manufacturered outrage trying to take advantage of 5% CNN's legal team sticking a tone-deaf disclaimer on an article. What's funny is how quickly reddit as a whole is turning against the people trying to push it. Almost everything about it hitting the front page is now on CNN's side and any comment trying to push the various bullshit lines like that he was 15years old gets driven hard into the negative while a day ago it would have been at 1k+.

Shifty Pony posted:95% manufacturered outrage trying to take advantage of 5% CNN's legal team sticking a tone-deaf disclaimer on an article. Redditors in general really, really, had Trump supporters. You might think I'm being insane, but r/T_D infects all of reddit and has left a bad taste in everyone's mouth. They use bots to get to the front page, spam their poo poo, etc. A lot of that has been stopped, but they still post everywhere, get in constant arguments, and stalk people. Like the one guy who posted in all my threads that I was pedophile because I didn't believe in pizzagate. To be frank, the general sentiment on reddit is r/T_D should be deleted and all its posters banned simply because they annoy everyone. But reddit admin refused to change.

It's kind of nice to see people pushing through the bullshit. When the Trump/Russia dossier was released the fake pages added by 4Chan (and the Putinbots) to discredit Steele were picked up pretty drat fast. With this most recent CNN situation /pol/ didn't even try to hide their media blitz to attack CNN and a lot of people noticed. Oh and it's easy to hate the guy that CNN dox'd.
