Media Dung-beetles
Fun fact for a Tuesday: There is no professional standard low enough, none, that Stuff cannot plunge beneath. They are positively subterranean news-disseminators, Media dung-beetles. Saturday’s offering “As fires rage in the Amazon, international pressure mounts on Brazil to take action” is a perfect exhibit of their
Lying Legacy Media Can’t Tell the Truth
The legacy media love to tub-thump themselves as the “curated media”, and tout their laughably-named “fact-checkers”. The vanity is, of course, that the legacy media are somehow the last word in factual reporting and accuracy. But, as anyone knows who’s ever been the subject of a
Stuff Up of the Day
Where to even start… Chris Keall continues to show an inability to cut and paste and then use joining words to stitch an article together. He was bad at NBR, but this is a low point. Clearly, the sub-editors have been outsourced to a company in outer Mongolia.
Stuff Up of the Day
The Stuff Up: The engine of the plane blew up while Taylor was flying over it, damaging his plane and sending it curtailing into a tree. Perhaps the word the author meant to use was “spiralling”.
‘Intolerant Left’ Wants Conservatives Off Air
The Australian columnist Gerard Henderson says there’s “a lot of intolerance on the left” and a desire to see anyone of a conservative disposition off the air. If you have a great Youtube or Vimeo video to share send it to videos@thebfd.co.nz
Stuff Up of the Day
It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Apart from making the Stuff article about as shallow as a car-park puddle (they only seem to have reviewed 4 or 5 professions out of the hundreds available), they can’t even get basic spelling right. Amateurs!
Stuff Up of the Day
Newsroom needs an atlas in the office as they were unable to accurately describe the location of one of the following three “shithole” countries: Afghanistan is in South Asia, not the Middle East, not Africa…Asia.
The New York Times is Proud of Telling their Lie Really Well
The Mueller Report dashed Democrat hopes of pinning Russian interference in the 2016 elections on Trump. That report, in fact, incriminated the Clintons and the Democrat’s but that’s a whole other story. The MSM, the lackies of the left, were relentless in the Trump-Russia collusion story for
Who Does the Media Most Want to Silence?
In the mainstream media, women on the left are almost always portrayed as paragons of compassion and virtue. But when it comes to conservative women, it’s a different story. Why is this? Heather Higgins, chairman of Independent Women’s Forum and CEO of Independent Women’s Voice, explains the
Bill Maher Lashes BDS Movement
Bill Maher seems to be making a concerted effort to make me like him against my will, and remind the world that there are still sane people on the left. Maher is a tv host and the sort of typical “liberal” “comedian” who mistakes delivering polemics for comedy. Like most
Harry Potter & the Goblet of Bullshit
If you think legacy media reporting in general is bad, then you ought to try reading legacy media science reporting. Science reporting, more than any other it seems, has degenerated into simply regurgitating press releases. The “journalists” are generally woefully ignorant of basic scientific practice, let alone the rudiments of
Stuff Up of the Day
Today’s Stuff up of the day is from Stuff. The first part of the story gets it right: The journalist then gets it totally wrong (and loses his grasp of the English language) in the middle of the piece. It’s not as if the topic isn’t complicated
The Left-Media are Racist. Trump is Not
We live in the era of Orwell’s Ministry of Truth, where lies become facts, and two plus two equals whatever our masters tell us it does. The only real difference is that the Ministry of Truth has been outsourced to the private sector – the legacy media. The legacy media
