Cool. We agree on something. Progress.

Nah we agree on nothing. This is what news channels do. It’s called propaganda. Your precious foxnews does it too except you don’t notice it because it fits your agenda and you won’t question it. Every news station does it.

Every single real journalist should be looking at these state by state numbers and reporting.

In January, California hit 493 pneumonia deaths a week. By mid-march, they reported just 282 weekly deaths from pneumonia.

What a difference 5 weeks and a national pandemic makes.

if you have twitter just click on this as it shows them side by side using identical footage. Skynews explains their video was from a hard hit hospital in Bergamo while CBS uses the footage as video for Cuomo saying he needs ventilators https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1244670556110110729

the specific story they used the skynews footage on is at (starting around 1:40)

It's only a matter of time before some loony toons walk into CNN or MSNBC and unload their assault rifles - then the surviving fake news will blame it on guess who?

CBS News admitted to a "mistake" on Monday after airing footage of an overcrowded hospital room that was allegedly in New York City but was actually from a hospital in Italy.
"It was an editing mistake. We took immediate steps to remove it from all platforms and shows," a CBS News spokesperson told Fox News.
Last Wednesday, "CBS This Morning" included a brief clip showing several patients and medical professionals in one room during a report about the rising threat of the coronavirus outbreak in New York City.
However, that same footage aired days prior on Sky News.

During a Pandemic it is essential that the Media gives us real and accurate information.

It’s completely irresponsible for @CBSNews to use footage from an Italian Hospital when talking about the outbreak in New York City.

This is unacceptable.

“This is the main hospital in Bergamo, in Lombardy province. It’s one of the most advanced hospitals in Europe,” Sky News reported.

ABC News made a similar mistake last fall when it aired footage from a Kentucky gun range while falsely claiming it depicted a fierce battle between Syrian Kurds and Turkish forces.
The network aired the footage framing it as battlefield video, when, in fact, it appears to be from a night gun demonstration at the Knob Creek Gun Range in West Point, Ky.
ABC News issued a correction and apologized for the error.

Firing squads would be more appropiate

Now people are starting to film hospitals because they don’t trust the media to report accurately.

Some CBS that aired footage of a "SLAUGHTER IN SYRIA" saying it was an attack by Turkey but they were using footage of a nighttime arms demonstration held at a Kentucky gun range. They blasted that footage with the chyron "SLAUGHTER IN SYRIA" on their top morning and evening shows and after they got caught, they issued a tweet about it. They never have the shows that broadcast the phony footage issue the correction. MSNBC does this all of the time, too. Maddow runs with a lie for half her show but when caught, the network issues a one sentence tweet a day later. fake news experts. I bet there are millions of dopey, braindead, brainwashed idiots who still believe that gun range footage was actually a Turkish military attack.
