    So, if I find one true story I can claim "the press" is telling the truth?

    "The press", "Liberals", "Democrats"... Boxes....

      Obviously Trump slipped in and changed the film they were using.

        The problem is that they've been spreading falsehoods throughout this ordeal -- even after fact checkers have pronounced them false. At a certain point it isn't a mistake.

            I'm sure it was just an honest mistake. No, really.

              Project Veritias went to 3 or 4 hospitals in the New York/New Jersey area.

              I think two of the hospitals said this virus was being overblown.

              Rush Limbaugh had talked to many doctors he knows (with some he has seen recently) who said this was no big deal.

              It fits in well that footage was used from Italy to represent things in New York

                  I take it that you are enslaved by the media then. One point I saw about doing research -- just because a book has been published and is in the library does not mean that that book is good information.

                  You have heard the original radio broadcast of War of the Worlds ... and you heard about the outcome. Didn't you. Some lessons are never learned.

                  I just recommend doing the research. Don't you?

                  Limbaugh noted the big change in Ferguson's numbers (out of London College). The great change in numbers means that that group is playing with variable of high variability and great unknowns. So, they can get any number they want. And we are to accept the calculations whatever they are?

                    That is not true.

                    FNC hosts and Trump himself have indeed been lying throughout this ordeal, even after being debunked. Three seconds of B-roll on a CBS clip is not lying, just sloppy, and not within orders of magnitude of the same league. It's time to put your campaign of regurgitated lies and propaganda against the press on hold. It can't help, and can only serve to drive people to less reliable news sources, with consequent increases in mortality.

                    That means blood on your hands.

                    Try to avoid that.

                    Start now.

                      The blood is on the hands of whoever has lied ... and a bit on whoever trusts the lies. We have seen in an earlier post that CNN was willing to subvert an election of the President. If the media has become untrustworthy, it is difficult to know when they will tell the truth. Statistics lie and can be made to say whatever someone wants them to say.

                      I'm trying to find out what other people are saying because I don't want a single source of information.

                        The experts can't even seem to not contradict themselves. Last week, Dr. Birx said the data on the ground does not support the dire predictions. This week, she made her own dire prediction that 200,000 China flu related deaths in the US is a "best case scenario". How can we trust the experts when they flip-flop like that?

                          well if you watch the video, it is a lot more than 3 seconds and the narrator is talking about a specific hospital in New Jersy while showing video from Italy.

                          "across the river at Holy Name medical center in New Jersey.." so yeah they were giving the impression that the video was of that hospital and the hospitals in New York.

                          Very sloppy at best.

                            I have noted several falsehoods that continue to be disseminated by the media as true despite being thoroughly debunked by various organizations who have no love loss for Trump. One popular example is that Trump called the coronavirus a hoax. It still makes the rounds either by the hosts of news or analysis programs or by guests who never are corrected or called out.

                            I'm always still in trouble again

                              They showed footage of the inside of a hospital that was not the same hospital implied by the story. But the video of the hospital had little to do with whether the story itself was fake news. If you want to find fake news, go to FOX, or just wait for Trump to say something.
