I had to sit in the waiting area of the hospital this morning for several hours while my mom had surgery. The tv was on CBS. I have not listened to MSM in well a couple of years and I was floored. No wonder these people are crazy. If I listened to that crap all day every day I would be too. Doom and gloom and lie after lie, it was sickening. How these people do not see what they are doing is beyond me.

The MSM should be rounded up and sent to Gitmo. You can't keep letting the fucking traitors control the narrative and expect the people to wake up.
When you're steeped too long in anything, you find that "you can't see the forest for the trees."
That is very true. For me, I could not stand to listen to the tv that long anyway, mine is rarely on.
I haven't turned mine on since Nov 3rd... it's all propaganda
same here
I can't even watch it, it stresses me out so bad, I frequently see clips of it on social media, that's more than enough to jack up my blood pressure. What strikes me as odd, is that the news was more or less my first red pill, I noticed how they seemed to try and cause division between black and white people and I kept looking for a better news channel, and found that they were all literally repeating the same thing, that led me to project mockingbird, and then to alternative media.
I was a huge Rush Limbaugh fan-still am-but he said a couple years ago to turn off the MSM and see how much better you feel-I did and he was right,
haven't watched since. Like you when I see a clip on twitter etc...it is more than enough for me. I couldn't wait to get out of there today. At least tomorrow in her room (only one visitor a day in the rooms, my day is tomorrow) I can turn it off. Well mom will probably already have it off as she doesn't watch that crap either.
We were raising impressionable kids in the 80's, 90's... so, quit tv and MSM back then. I only get to hear tv broadcasting at the occasional hotel. After years of not viewing, one of the first things we saw was...ZOMBIES!?? I just couldn't get over how quickly we became Idiocracy.
We quit MSM right before the 2016 election when the Hillary bias was so very obvious.
I was amazed at my clarity of thinking soon after - even before I knew all about Mockingbird. I am convinced there is more stuff being broadcast besides words and pictures.
I had the same experience waiting for a procedure. It seemed like the new was a joke, like an SNL skit. Everyone in the waiting room was watching the tv like zombies.
Exactly. Only good news was that although we were supposed to wear masks in the waiting room, I pulled mine below the chin and then off and no one said a word.
Fear & Division 24/7 broadcast.
EXACTLY
Made the decision to turn off the TV in 2019. Everything in my life got better.
If you have a phone with an IR blaster, get a universal remote app and turn them off.
I feel the same way on the other side, when the hospital is airing Fox News -- it's like a glimpse into a parallel universe of fear. "Geez, how can people believe this propaganda, why not come over to our side, where it's nice and comfy and non-scary?"
TV news really speaks to its base with sledgehammer force. It's only gonna get worse too...
Yeah, I saw Fox news while visiting family. Fear, fear, fear, and then BANG here comes the peaceful reassuring pharma commercials -followed by back to fear.
They are crazy because this is all they see and hear. They apparently don't know there is an internet where lots of varied information can be found. They just sit in front of the tv and absorb the propaganda. Right now, I can open any newspaper and read the TITLE and know it is all lies. Just the title. These people, primed by tv all their lives, would read the same paper and nod approvingly at everything. So this is how it goes until the MSM stranglehold and the Big Tech stranglehold is broken.
Saw the local 6 pm news tonight while we were out to eat and it was pitiful. Nothing but Covid counts, Covid death, fearmongering, and b-roll of teenagers getting their vax. For dessert they talked about horrible crime statistics.
Helps not to read the news unless necessary
