I think people were having issues because the Police allowed these people in the area, the signs were digitally printed up and handed out by CNN and other groups and the people were used in other videos. So it seems like CNN is staging news and using paid protesters.To me this opens up an interesting topic about the media in general. You push advertising in with your news and you're going to get the attention grabbing false narratives (and "produced" news pieces like above) we see today. You take the money out of news and you get state run media, which is completely bias in a more linear sense. There's really no healthy way to deliver news.
But yeah this is complete common practice. Whether its a bullshit thing to do or not is the conversation.
No they weren'tI think people were having issues because the Police allowed these people in the area, the signs were digitally printed up and handed out by CNN and other groups and the people were used in other videos. So it seems like CNN is staging news and using paid protesters.
I should have said they were accused of handing out the signs, my bad on that!No they weren't
Prove it.But yeah this is complete common practice. Whether its a bullshit thing to do or not is the conversation.
Partly. CNN selected particular protestors to come behind a police cordon so they could film them for aesthetic purposes or whatever. The idea that they handed out signs for them that they had made previously or whatever was obviously never true.I heard this was debunked? True?
Thank you. :mckinneyPartly. CNN selected particular protestors to come behind a police cordon so they could film them for aesthetic purposes or whatever. The idea that they handed out signs for them that they had made previously or whatever was obviously never true.
ummm yeah. He's also undermining our justice system but that's ok too! When you go out and spout "fake news" about every unflattering story about you, you're a liar and lose all credibility. Then when he complains about finding who's leaking information in his office, he's fucking admitting that the news is true but it's bad because it's leaked. He's a complete moron. Perhaps if he could just take criticism he'd come off better. It'd be nice if you Trumpkins just used a little logic and said "I support this guy but he's not doing a good job here" which is so clear."But Trump is hurting our freedom of the press by referring to them as fake news!"
So basically, they're reporting real news about a real protest, and didn't have a hand print on this other than trying to make for good tv. LOL A+ thread idea. But why have facts?Partly.

:jetgoodWhenever I watch, listen to or read any news I can't help but think it's 100% crap.
