Ralph blasts Fox News

Lt. Col. Ralph Peters blasts Fox News as a ‘propaganda machine’
Now, how in the world could anyone ever think such a thing?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...=.4cd8134bb4cd



Quote:
“In my view, Fox has degenerated from providing a legitimate and much-needed outlet for conservative voices to a mere propaganda machine for a destructive and ethically ruinous administration. When prime-time hosts — who have never served our country in any capacity — dismiss facts and empirical reality to launch profoundly dishonest assaults on the FBI, the Justice Department, the courts, the intelligence community (in which I served) and, not least, a model public servant and genuine war hero such as [special counsel Robert S. Mueller III] — all the while scaremongering with lurid warnings of ‘deep-state’ machinations — I cannot be part of the same organization, even at a remove. To me, Fox News is now wittingly harming our system of government for profit.”

You missed this in another thread already - and it was boooring then, too.

So what?
One dude's opinion.

And if you think FOX is any worse then FNN or PMSNBC, you are as much of a political tool as Danny and Stinky.

More so - at least they are prompt!


Run along, now.......no one really cares.

When I read the thread title, I assumed it was referring to Just Ralph!

Meanwhile, MSNBC can't be bothered to interrupt its routine political coverage to get caught up on the Austin bomber's demise...

Peters is a bought and paid for NeoCon stooge. It is just evidence that Trump has devastated the Neo Cons, emphasis on Cons.

FOX, MSNBC, CNN, are all propaganda machines. So are the right and left wing websites. I have friends who read far left stuff like Mother Jones, which is about as trustworthy as the National Inquirer.

Exactly, so what is the OP's point? For every right wing propaganda media outlet there are 5-10 for the left. It is like the left wants to exterminate anything that doesn't agree with them.

Gee, and I had concluded that FOX was understating the amount of slime and corruption within our media, courts, and intelligence community.

We have single major news/media outlet that is right of center and it is considered propaganda?


Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and even Snapchat are huge leaning left of center outlets.



95% of 'news' reported by CNN and MSNBC is negative regarding our current POTUS.



So...., you tell me what is propaganda.
