Really says something when it's released to Tucker Carlson rather than an actual journalist. You give it to the press if you want to inform the public. You give it to Tucker Carlson if you want to use it as a tool to somehow sway the public.
That's rich given what you would consider to be an actual journalist is nothing more than a democrat shill. Who would you suggest they give it to? Chuck Todd? Clinton simp George Snuffleupagus? Norah O'Donnell? Or anybody else at one of the MSM, who has continued to push the "insurrection" fear and treat it like it's another 9/11? Give me a friggin' break. .

You're scared because Tucker's team will begin to call out the facts and crush the narrative the actual "journalists" have lied about for 2 years.
Fox News has journalists. Tucker Carlson just isn't one of them.
Who will more than likely be helping Tucker. Tucker has reach that your average journalist doesn't, and will open several doors for those within Fox News looking at this.

It is strange the back the blue crowd was suddenly all good with beating police.




Uhhhh…I've never been a back the blue type. Your "beating police" line is complete bull**** and has already been discredited.

ETA:
See my signature below.
You should tell the guy who got convicted of beating a police officer with a flag pole, not to worry about serving his prison sentence because his actions were "discredited". While you are at it, you should also let the other 4 police who were beaten that day, along with the family of the one who died. I am sure they would be happy to hear from you.
No cop died because of Jan 6. Only one person died; an unarmed female Air Force veteran. Your "media" has been lying to you about this and who knows what else?

Four cops "beaten" doesn't seem like much of an "insurrection".

That's fair, but you're not operating in a bubble. It has been selectively released and framed for over a year by people every bit as partisan as Carlson. Isn't this just evening that up some?

Edit: Another thought - "the press" has not been asking for it the last two years. By and large, they were fine with what the DNC committee wanted to give them and when. Carlson has actually been asking for it. If they want it now all of the sudden, then why?

Tell us about all those "actual journalists." Can you name some?
You miss the news about Tucker in last week? He's all about views/clicks.

Jeeper is right, if you want to be objective you give to a few real journalists and can even give to a few across spectrum - not talking head types.


So NOW we want to be objective.

Funny how that works.

More entertainment. Fox News won the McDougal case by stating Tucker is only an entertainer and not news media held to standards that could make him or Fox News liable for false statements. US District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil agreed with Fox's premise, saying "this 'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that he is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.'" Then we have the texts from the Dominion case that shows how he and the other entertainers at Fox News play their audience.
Fact check, false. But don't take my word for it, read the opinion.

Quote:

After the case was removed from New York state court, Fox News moved to dismiss Ms. McDougal's claim on the grounds that Mr. Carlson's statements were not statements of fact and that she failed adequately to allege actual malice.

Actual malice is required by journalists/media toward public persons. Actual malice was required to be shown, and she clearly failed to do so, so the case was dismissed.

Quote:

Despite propaganda/lies from the usual mouthpieces to the contrary, your whole summary of the legal arguments made is wholly untrue/false. I'm gonna just go out and guess you're not a lawyer, but regardless your ability to read/analyze legal decisions/reasoning is exceptionally poor.
Except that doesn't speak to the fact the 1) Carlson admitted he was just an entertainer (ala Alex Jones) and 2) There is zero way to read his exposed texts about his feelings of Jan 6 out of context. He thought he election fraud was bogus, was embarrassed by the riots...but also did not want their talking heads to state this but rather toe the line of Trumps claims to keep their supporter numbers up. He's a business man/entertainer. Sure he gets things right sometimes but whether he believes all the claims he makes is obviously suspect. The liberal media obviously obfuscates their stories...but to thing the right doesn't do it is just ridiculous.

So why is all this protest and outrage reserved for the right?

I don't even watch Tucker or Fox News but this is all so silly. The footage will speak for itself.

I am on the right...and I still believe the Jan 6 was a bunch of idiots who received the justice they deserved. But that has nothing to do with Tuckers credibility. I absolutely believe they should release it to the entire public

By "Journalists" you mean DNC propagandists that are only going to use it as a tool to somehow sway the public. Much like the entirety of the Jan 6th committee. You're just pissed that someone got the actual evidence that might release it to the public to allow people to decide for themselves instead of viewing it through the filter of progressive propaganda.

The hypocrisy of leftist intellectual dishonesty is truly amazing. You guys have no shame at all!

I think we need as much information as we can get before we can say "they got what they deserved". I assume that sentiment extends to Ashley Babbitt, and couldn't disagree more. And what about the people who have been held 2 years without a trial? Their Constitutional rights are not being granted them. And how about people who were let in through open doors and waved in by capitol police, took some selfies, walked around a bit and left without breaking anything?

You are wrong, completely wrong. Conservatives and Republicans condemn the violence and destruction of property during the Jan. 6th altercations. What they condemn is the unwarranted and possibly illegal detention of some arrested for extended periods. What they condemn is the reactions from the Democratic Party leadership comparing this to Pearl Harbor, 9-11 and other truly horrific attacks on the United States. The Democratic Party leadership is unethical, amoral and has no honor.

You are being completely disingenuous with your statement. The Democratic Party Leadership conflated the events. There is evidence that the FBI had informants within the crowd agitating and several ANTIFA members involved.

Conservatives back the blue and are smart enough to be able to distinguish the difference in the situations.

  • By Thursday afternoon, Capitol Police began arresting hundreds of protesters inside the Hart Senate Office Building who raised their fists and loudly started chanting "Kavanaugh has got to go." Arrests were made after protesters began sitting down in the building's atrium, refusing to cooperate with law enforcement.

    In all, some 302 protesters were arrested and charged with unlawfully demonstrating in Senate office buildings Thursday, police said.

More general violence not necessarily @ the Capitol
The Democratic Party is often violent, divisive and hypocritical; if it doesn't change, Trump will be back | COMMENTARY By Ronald P. Boone For The Baltimore Sun Nov 20, 2020 at 5:00 am
some quotes from the article
  • Ignoring the Constitution. When Trump won, leftists rampaged the streets, randomly destroyinginnocent citizens' property. Democrats began impeachment immediately. They touted eliminating the Electoral College and packing the Supreme Court and Senate. If leftists resort to violence whenever unhappy with electoral results, and if the Democratic Party alters timeworn American institutions to guarantee its own political supremacy, citizens who respect peace and democracy will resist.
    Being divisive, elitist, and hypocritical. The right didn't elect Donald Trump, the left did. Hillary Clinton called millions of voters "deplorables." Democrats everywhere cheered her statement. Conservatives were callously called Trumpies. Some were intimidated in the workplace, even fired. Moderates perceive such leftist tactics as threatening, humiliating, and arrogant toward those with differing viewpoints, leaving them resentful of the party and its agenda.
    Being partisan in the press. Did CNN dedicate the same coverage to the Obama administration's treatment of families at the Mexican border that it did to the Trump administration for the same behaviors? The scope of challenges to questionable policies shouldn't be determined by political party. Many don't seek the news for political preferences of editors and columnists. We desire nonpartisan analysis of events. Single perspective news outlets limit the perspective of citizens and foster intolerant outlooks.
Among the latter, under pretence of governing they have divided their nations into two classes, wolves and sheep.”

Really says something when it's released to Tucker Carlson rather than an actual journalist. You give it to the press if you want to inform the public. You give it to Tucker Carlson if you want to use it as a tool to somehow sway the public.
There are no journalists. The entire American media is comprised of nothing but self aggrandizing hacks.

Let's see some GIFs from the summer of love. Liberals are violent and extraordinarily hypocritical.

Didn't you know they were mostly peaceful?! The media said so over and over! It was mostly peaceful!



That police station set on fire? Mostly peaceful.

The left are pissed because they know that a lot of the stuff they've been clinging to for the last 2 years is about to be debunked. And the "conspiracy theorists" are about to be proven right for like the 10,000th time. They can't really claim this was comparable to 9/11 and Pearl Harbor when video is going to show people dancing around after having been let in by Capitol Police.

Bingo.

Leftists love them some surveillance state, but hate sharing information about what they see.

pretty obvious what's going on here, the Party needs its chief propagandist to comb through 41,000 hours of footage to compile some 2 minute clips of mostly peaceful protesters singing kumbaya on the capitol steps on 1/6/21 for the next election cycle

Something I've learned on TexAgs.

When a certain post hits close to a sensitive DNC/Media Matters talking point memo, the lib posters jump on it quick and with similarly worded responses.

That is when you know you've zeroed in on something that matters.
I wouldn't have an issue if these same posters would actually take the time to educate themselves instead of reading, or listening, to self-serving BS.

The fact AP still believes a cop died and it was attributable to the J6 protestors is obscene. It's been two full years, and he doesn't know (or uses it to refute other TA posters) the cop died of natural causes means he's either listening to the wrong crap (likely, since maybe 10% of the media covered it accurately), or reads articles of writers writing for a purpose, not enlightenment.

Now, do BLM, Antifa, about 10 attorneys and elected Reps for Republicans who had their phones taken at gun point, Russiagate, etc..

Then I might consider the reply to be of value.

I mean that would be better than the left having their propagandists lie to us and tell us that protests are "mostly peaceful" while buildings are being set on fire in the background of that camera shot.

One of the weirdest things I've ever seen in this regard was when Trump/Ukraine stuff came out in 2019, I saw posts here, TigerDroppings, Reddit, and Twitter all had people that immediately said that the Ukrainian prosecutor that Biden went after was well known to be corrupt. By leftists of course.

I would imagine the amount of people that could name a Ukrainian prosecutor before that day on TexAgs/TigerDroppings to be 0.
