osxmatt Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Here's a terrible way to start your day. A Twitter feed from WaPo that only shares tweets from the accounts that Trump follows.

Jason Posted August 28, 2018 Author Share Posted August 28, 2018 Sorry, 4:30 AM. Which is even more like a stable genius. And he deleted and re-did them...I can't spot any obvious typos so maybe he really was just trying to not have them showing as him being up at 4:30 AM going crazy from doing uppers all night.

TwinIon Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 The Verge on where that 96% figure came from: Quote This claim seems to have originated on the right-wing site PJ Media before spreading to other outlets, including Fox News. It’s the analysis of a reporter who Googled the term “Trump” a number of times “using different computers.” She then tallied up the perceived bias of the outlets appearing in the first 100 results. (The political alignment of the outlets was assigned based on a chart by journalist Sharyl Attkisson, a former CNN reporter who appeared on Fox News last year claiming that the media is feeding the public an “artificial reality.”) I know that Trump's talk about how "this is a very serious situation-will be addressed!" is the empty threat of a early morning Twitter troll, but let's for a brief moment consider what kind of action could actually be taken here. Do these conservatives really want the US government to go to a private company and force them to change results based on some kind of political fairness algorithm. Setting aside the impossibility of pleasing anyone with such an algorithm, it would be an unprecedented (I hope) and obviously unconstitutional example of governmental overreach. I know it's all bluster, but even the most cursory thought to the potential policy behind his specious reasoning can't possibly pass muster.

MarSolo Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 You know, if Trump or any conservative outlet had any brains, they'd look into the people actually building their sites. The reason they aren't showing up in Google is probably more of a SEO issue than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it helps their side, as it currently does, and them knowing the left would never silence them because we actually believe in the ideals that they only care about when it benefits them, the answer is, absolutely, yes, that's what conservatives want the US government to do. Surely this is the default we should all be operating under at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mclumber1 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Can the FBI clear this up tomorrow in a press conference? Can they explicitly state whether Ohr said the dossier wasn't true?

Ghost_MH Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Wait...is Trump now claiming that his Lester Holt interview was doctored somehow? He normally doesn't make any sense, but I have no idea what he's talking about here. When Lester Holt was caught doing what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
