Let's see...no more "Cops" or "LivePD'. Now they're talking about "Law and Order" being removed and Law and Order has turned into one of the most PC, touchy-feelie, shows on TV. Imagine where this will lead to...No more Dirty Harry, Bad Boys, Beverly Hills Cop and the list just goes on and on. There is no way to satisfy these people. Free speech is, basically, dead.

The Andy Griffith Show is next. Barney was a rebel rouser.
Shame on you..."rebel" reminds us of well,...the Confederacy and....well,....we need to just forget that ever happened.
Matter of fact, we need to just cancel, rename or delete any name or term that is offensive to the "Cancel Culture", also known as the liberal left. History has no say in the matter.
If they get their way, "Gone with the Wind" will be gone along with other movies and books that THEY deem offensive or undesirable. I see visions of "Fahrenheit 451".
What's next? Will I be "deleted" if someone finds ME offensive?

If you don't toe the PC/liberal mold you get crucified on social media and verbally attacked, even physically attacked, by the the non-free speech crowd as they scream "freedom from oppression". Irony can be pretty ironic. This whole "I am triggered by......" is such a pile of crap. They have no conflict to deal with and feel empty without that, so they create a conflict by being triggered. So damn lame.

Well for 'honest news' there is always FoxNews - except when its not.
Fox News has repeatedly published digitally altered photographs as part of a series of stories about protests on Seattle’s Capitol Hill that aired June 12.
The misleading images were first discovered by the Seattle Times, which raised the issue to Fox News.
“Fox’s site had no disclaimers revealing the photos had been manipulated. The network removed the images after inquiries from The Seattle Times,” The Times reported June 12.
The photos are purported to be taken inside Seattle’s so-called “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone,” a six-block radius in downtown Seattle that is now outside police control. The area was established May 25 after Mayor Jenny Durkan ordered Seattle police to abandon their East Precinct station during protests against the May 25 killing of George Floyd. Seattle residents have nicknamed the reclaimed police station the “Seattle People Station.”
One of the altered images used by Fox News shows a civilian standing outside a demolished storefront with a military assault rifle. The Seattle Times reports the image is not one photograph but a “mashup” of several photos from different days and different photographers — created by layering images from riots in downtown Seattle on May 30 under a Getty Images photo of a man with a gun. Fox News also published an alternate version of this image, where the armed man appeared to stand in front of a sign that said, “You are now entering Free Cap Hill.”

Another example of, "if you tell a lie often enough. . ."
TRUMP, on veterans health care: “Before I came here, the vets would wait on line. ... And for years and years, they’ve been trying to get Veterans Choice. ... Now, most importantly, we take care of our vets.” — Meeting with pastors, law enforcement officers and others in Dallas on Thursday.
THE FACTS: That is the latest iteration of his frequently told false claim to have achieved Veterans Choice when other presidents couldn’t. President Barack Obama achieved it. Trump expanded it. The program lets veterans, under certain conditions, get private health care at public expense. It has not eliminated waits for care.

Never let the facts get in the way of a bad lie:
TRUMP: “This year has seen the lowest crime numbers in our Country’s recorded history.” — tweet Monday.
THE FACTS: Not so. First, this year’s numbers are not compiled. Also, FBI statistics show the violent crime rate was lower in 2014 than in 2018, the most recent year recorded. Also, crime overall was substantially lower in the 1950s and 1960s, grew after that and has been on a downward trend since the 1990s, with variations along the way.

Another one of your lies. How can you say that he is incorrect when YOU dont have the data. Perhaps, just maybe, he has access to the preliminary monthly data before its published?

Another one of your lies. Obama, did nothing. Until trump came in, it was the same bureaucratic cronies. Obama destroyed private health care as well. Falsely claiming there were more people "insured" but failed to mention the 12,500 dollar deductibles.
If you want to keep lying without providing data, you will be called out for your deliberate lying.

You dont seem to be bothered by the MSM doctoring video then getting caught doing it. Doesnt seem to bother you when they use footage from a firing range for a Syria report ABC Apologizes for Showing Video From U.S. Gun Range in Report on Syria
NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ apologizes for ‘inadvertently and inaccurately’ editing Barr clip
NBC’s “Meet the Press” apologized for editing a clip of an interview with Attorney General William Barr after a spokesperson for the Department of Justice (DOJ) criticized the program.&nb…

It takes a sick mentally disturbed person like you to support that behavior. Sure, as the nutcase Seattle mayor said on CNN, its just a block party.

The msm has been caught doctoring a lot of photos plus editing interviews to make some one such as AG Bill Barr to say or mean something that he did not mean at all. 60 minutes comes to mind. The msm is the king of misrepresentation. Just look no further than the Trump/Russia collusion story they were pushing. Rod Rosenstein just said in Senate testimony that there was no basis for the investigation. Multiple people have stated that they have seen no evidence of Trump/Russia collusion.
