Believe it or not they do have standards. Doesn't mean they don't report on some stupid stuff but an allegation with criminal reprocess ions has a very high threshold.

Hey, did you know that guy in your avatar was for gun bans? Just saying...

No. A Democrat named Hughes sleezed in an amendment at the 11th hour banning i believe true machine guns. Reagan did take some heat for signing the bill that had this amendment attached .

You're mixing legislation. Ronald Reagan, your hero and avatar, openly supported the 1994 FAWB.

Perhaps it was just old age.

Yes, my old age and you are correct. He did support the Brady bill
He did however have a profound impact on the 2nd amendment by appointing Scalia and Kennedy. Without them we almost lost the
2 nd amendment
Still my hero
Now back to the thread 😄

No. They do not. Their only standards are "what panders best to our target audience" and "what furthers the agendas of our executives". Anyone who thinks differently has allowed them to pull the wool over your eyes.

There's a reason I refuse to call them "news organizations". They are nothing more than editorialized, agenda-driven sources for propaganda... all of them.

Tell that to the Duke lacrosse team whose lives were ruined.

Spence, what you mean to say is, there are high thresholds when the criminal is sympathetic to the liberal agenda.

You don't believe that the underage pristitute thiing is part of the investigation. Which FBI agent told you this? Or are you, as always, dismissive of that which makes your side look immoral and stupid?

I know a certain group of college lacrosse players that would disagree. I also remember several suicides by wrongly accused by the media, individuals.
Your blind faith does however explain a lot of your positions
