Why the old media is dying, part 73

The leading sentence says it all:

The top-quality fact-checking that can only be achieved by large media corporations is on fine display today, as Reuters is caught by a 13-year old Finnish schoolboy representing still photos from the movie “Titanic” as pictures from the Russian North Pole expedition...

And yet, the old media continues to act as though the new media of bloggers and internet knowledge mavens are nothing more than a bunch of amateurs in their pajamas.  No wonder fewer and fewer people are taking the old media seriously anymore...

I'd like to say I'm amazed and dismayed by yet another deception by the LameStream Media ... but I'm not at all surprised and I'm not so much dismayed as I am disgusted.

I don't trust most media sources anymore.

But what will we do with all the pulp tree farms?

They do add texture to the agricultural landscape but then create a danger concern as they tend to fall in a stiff breeze.

Had to laugh when I read that a young boy discovered parts of the Titanic movie in clips of Russian's recent expedition to the North Pole. Keep doing research on the internet to learn the facts, not what the media tells us. Bias and strategizing control the media, which influences the minds of the public. Our Democratic and Republican leaders are just as corrupt ($$$$$/power) so I'm going Independent.Thank goodness for the internet!

When is the media going to inform the dumbed down masses Pat Tillman joined the Army not because he was a patriot, but to shut it down by way of the antiwar movement? What did the Army do for him? They set him in an antiwar platoon, whom he reported to the antiwar movement, as did Cindy Sheehen's son! San Mateo County, locked its horns with international intrigue. They thought they'd carry the matter a step further, by connecting a then 18 year old Hispanic female to the murder of two royal Tongans on Highway 101. The King of Tonga named in New Zealand presses a Russian, with mafiya links. He stole two hundred million dollars, from New Zealand. He called him before the world: Joker! Joker couldn't live it down, try as he might. He took one of Tesla's patents, and drove Elizabeth Delgado's car into the front of the Tongan pair's vehicle clipping it slightly, but the district attorney saw opportunity, and stuck poor Delgado in the Chicken Coop, with a bail set at five million dollars, for nearly a year until a trial cleared her of deliberate wrongdoing. Tongan royals promised to bring financial relief to Tongan communities, as spelled out in a Tongan church located in Whiskey Gulch aka East Palo Alto minutes before the crash.

Yes, I know all that, but how else do you explain the deposed former Prime Minister of Nigeria having the $64 million?

Seriously, I read your comment like three times, and I still have no idea what you are trying to say.

Don't bother trying to explain it. I don't think anyone really cares.

MSM lies to the Finnish!

[Pardon Me?]

"MSM lies to the Finnish!"

But how about the Swedes and the Norse?
