Is the MSM being paid for their political advertising called "news"???

[FCD]

Is NBC, MSNBC, CNN, CBS, PBS, and many others, being paid by the Harris campaign for all their "news" which amounts to campaign advertisements for Harris?  I mean, The View alone is a 1 hour long non-stop advertisement for Harris and against Trump.  Candidly, I can say the same thing about FOX news 'for' Trump, in all fairness, but it's a pretty lobsided and stacked deck on the Harris side.

If they're not being paid, then what they are doing amounts to 100% election interference, absolutely!  And...they should be charged and prosecuted for it!

Nobody is running any "news" anymore, it's just non-stop smear and propaganda advertising.

Smells like Election Interference to me!

I deleted the other one. Looks like this title was a little different, but the meat was the same.

I think that there's a lot of money moving, but it's moving in ways that are not cut and dry.

The US allows pharma advertising, which in my opinion is mostly to move money rather than advertise drugs. Somehow every other 1st world country -except NZ I believe- is able to run their medical system (which I am constantly told are often much better than the US) without constant direct advertising of drugs to consumers. They also directly sponsor (and the US CDC too) content creators both professional and pseudo-amateur influencers. It goes beyond pharma, that's just an easy and timely example. One could see COVID as the result of a decade or more of pharma influence penetrating the media via their wallets.

The US also spends a great deal on awareness campaigns for their pet projects through both above board allocated spending and passthrough organizations that are used to obscure who is doing the funding. Most here are probably familiar with CIA fronts. The tactics are not much different than what people like Soros use. I think you'll find the only time the propaganda funded supports freedom and liberty is when it's being distributed to a country with leadership that isn't doing what the power brokers want.

The press bias has been overt for a long time. The Trump years have pretty much ended any sort of plausible deniability for that. All these different groups can all agree on one thing... that whoever is in charge has to be somebody that is a product of their machinations and beholden to their continuation.

Pharma, NGOs, hedge funds, the press, and the intelligence community, are one big happy family. Between them all they fund the problems and profit off the solutions.

Hee, hee...so once again, someone down-votes this OP. How funny.

Well, whomever you are...enjoy yourself. I have a pretty good idea who you are, but that's okay; you can remain in the shadows. Your reality (or lack thereof) will be proven out soon enough.

You're down-voting the person, not the message. But hey, that's cool; it only exposes your maturity level. Go ahead,, keep doing it (without posting rejoinders); we all know who you are!!!

How fun.

P.S. - I'm pretty sure I know exactly who is doing this. They lost once, in the big show, and they will lose badly again in THIS show! They will be exposed for who they 'are'...and who they are NOT!

Keep goin' bub. Stop lurkin' and start posting. LOL! Again, you got exposed once, bigly. And, I have no misgivings about exposing you again!! LOL! You are not who you say you are.

(Got burnt back in the old days on ATS; had to change your name and run...and now you'll get burnt here. You're not that smart!!) LOL!

You didn't think I knew did you? Like I wasn't paying attention. Well, I was.

To be honest I haven't even looked at ratings and wasn't aware anyone was using them. If we have master-raters here maybe I should be making sure I don't miss the lowest rates threads. That's where the good stuff usually is, just follow the wailing and gnashing of teeth.

It's a badge of honor when people can disagree with your premise, but lack the capacity to refute it. Ratings, supporting censorship, accusations of unflattering things, are all surrogates for a rational argument.

Don't let impotent and meaningless gestures derail the train of interesting discussion.

MSM is so Democrat/Left lopsided. They get money from somewhere. Right now I say between all the regular "Hosts" and "Guests" and TV/Radio stars, they've got a 95% Democrat/Left majority on all the major networks. "MSM" includes all the talk shows like Oprah, View, etc. + all the primetime shows (Radio & TV), and the "news" shows and news stations.

Presidential child spouses. 
Accounts Elon engages on X. 
Almost a 3rd of Whitehouse staffers.

Executives at State Street and Vanguard. 
People that were in charge of the Federal Reserve bank. 


You surround Caeser. 

He doesn't know where the knife comes from until it's too late. 

The empire ends up in ruins.

Yep, there is no message anymore, just a massage and just the medium ..

Investigative Journalism has turned into MSM journalists should be investigated

If you haven't done so yet check out Candace Owens she has a whole investigative series running concurrent with the buildup of the election. 

Her focus is mainly Kamala Harris and in my opinion she deserves an award for her investigative journalism, that lady is on fire.

Yep, I like Candace she's not afraid to say what's on her mind.

Was just reading one about Kamala using pictures of someone other than her Gramma to represent her Gramma. Some black lady ..

It's amazing how these people rise through the ranks. 

Her background story has been cooked to deny her white slave owner heritage and to add insult to injury she appropriated black people (very likely their servant among others) to create the fake image of having a black grandma. 

It also makes it super easy to sway the votes in DJT's favor when she gets exposed for these lies. 

She has the worst interviews that does absolutely nothing to gain more support and will very likely have the effect of repelling even more of her intended base. 

I need to find a betting site that let's you bet on the outcome of the next American 'election'.

I've been saying for over a year now the fix is in for Trump and all indicators keep strengthening that conclusion. 

The pendelum has swung once again. 

Let's see what happens.
