Wikipedia, Trump Lawsuits Yet Again Demonstrate the Idiocy of Section 230

The Trade War and the Mass Media

The Gospel According to Alex Jones: Fear, Fame, and the Invisible “They”
Alex Jones doesn’t report the news—he baptizes it in panic and sells you iodine tablets afterward. On Tucker Carlson, he was back in the pulpit, bellowing about a Globalist Death Cult fueling the next civil war. You could almost smell the brimstone through the screen. The man could turn a stubbed toe into a government …

August begins. Lies and TDS continue
No, the Rose Garden was not paved over. Democrats are off to another bad start in August. Elizabeth Warren praised the communist wing of the Democrat Party and told Morning Joe on MSNBC: They’re fighting for an America that’s not just controlled by a handful of billionaires who dump hundreds of millions of dollars into …
Eulogy For the American Newspaper
I miss the newspaper. Before the internet. I’m talking physical newspapers. The kind you unfold. I miss the morning routine of it all. Walk to the end of the driveway, barefoot, pre-sunrise. Messy hair. Morning breath. Unsheath the newsprint from its plastic. Soy-based ink on your fingers. That low-grade, wood-pulpy newsprint smell. Also, I miss …

I knew there was a bias, but I thought the slant was measured by only a few degrees. Nowadays, I don’t know where to get news that even approximates ground truth. Somewhere among the cacophony of voices screaming in cyberspace, there’s reliable information. Real news. Where is it?
Not my Father’s (or my Mother’s) Democratic Party
My parents were lifelong Democrats. My mother sometimes volunteered at polling stations during primary and general elections. My father, a lifelong salesman with a great gift of gab, occasionally canvassed for various Democratic candidates.
