Tucker Carlson, and his visit earlier this year to Moscow and subsequent interview with Putin, has unintentionally provided a perfect example of propaganda.
Here’s a great explainer on the key elements of propaganda, and how to tell when the reporting abandons journalism and is straight up propaganda:

Keep in mind when you read this piece that the only conservative in the story is Gonzalez. The others are far-right pols who want to burn it all down—the antithesis of conservatism. #media #gop

"For Hollywood, 2023 was an annus horribilis," write Variety's Brett Lang and Todd Spangler, referencing the entertainment industry's strikes, plunging share prices and layoffs. Who didn't get the memo? Studio execs, the majority of whom received increases to their compensation. Here's a breakdown of who got what, and how media chiefs are justifying their multi-million-dollar pay packets.

Sony Will Use AI to Cut Film Costs, Says CEO Tony Vinciquerra
"“We are very focused on AI. The biggest problem with making films today is the expense,” Vinciquerra said at Sony’s Thursday (Friday in Japan) investor event. “We will be looking at ways to…produce both films for theaters and television in a more efficient way, using AI primarily.”"
Wow. So I expect the quality will go way down.

They put four reporters on this story…
“Some said they wanted to beat traffic or had work the next day. Others complained about sound quality. One man wanted to go home to his French bulldog. Another needed to get home to his daughter. A third had a Yorkie with him that started acting out. A fourth man said his phone died.”

A perfect a/b test of the media's differential coverage of Trump.
In 2016, they turned HRC's hacked/ leaked emails into dozens of vaguely damning stories down the stretch. Here they report Trump was hacked but don't reveal anything they received from the leakers. They say the hackers offered more but in this case it doesn't seem like they're interested in breaking any news from an illicit source.

Trump is completely incoherent when talking about one of his signature policies.
Meanwhile, the press is hectoring #KamalaHarris over her "price controls."
WaPo's run one opinion piece about tariffs in the last six months. It was headlined, "How #Trump taught #Biden to love tariffs."
They've run a grand total of one opinion piece this year about the central policy proposal of his campaign, rounding up and deporting 15 million people.
Nine years ago, Hillary said around half of Trump's supporters were bigots of various stripes and despite that being a generous estimate, the right hasn't stopped whining about it since--and they convinced the press that it was a consequential slur.
This will be forgotten in 2 days...

In the face of new Democratic momentum, [#crybaby] #Trump has grown increasingly upset about #KamalaHarris’s surging poll numbers & #media coverage since replacing #Biden on the ticket, complaining relentlessly & asking friends about how his campaign is performing, acc/to 5 people close to the campaign….
“It’s unfair that I beat him & now I have to beat her, too,” Trump told an ally in a phone call last weekend. [um, you never “beat” Biden, dummy.]

I've read several pieces this AM about Trump's mutual masturbation session with Elon and I couldn't help but notice that after running thousands of stories about Biden's apparent cognitive issues, reporters don't seem to think it's even worth mentioning that 78-year-old Trump could not make words with his mouth and slurred his way through the whole two hours.
So, having given vent to my political id lately, why quit?
I have many contrary thoughts.
(I have no Indigenous blood, yet the concept of certain difficult people being valued as ‘Contraries’ has long resonated with me; I read of it ages ago in relation to a then-extant plains/southwest people; I feel one of them.)
Anyway, the contrary thought.
We know the #CBC has turned shit.
It’s been pumping out #Poilievre garbage without shame for weeks now.

Scott Dworkin states,
"Over the last week, the mainstream media didn’t just get it wrong, they failed all of us at a level that should be considered malpractice."
Then he lists "5 key stories which expose them for their MAGA bias and their corporate bosses' obvious support of Trump."
1. Walz's military service
2. Trump's $10 million Egyptian scandal
3. Trump's private flight with Project 2025's leader

Seriously, the NYT has to be intentionally trolling us at this point.
Imagine being a reporter at the “paper of record” and writing with a straight face that a “large swath of the public” gave a flying fuck through a rolling donut about Obama’s tan suit. And then quoting Lou Dobbs.
This piece says that Alison Esposito has made a name for herself in conservative media by talking about law and order and the "border crisis."
Not mentioned is that NYC paid out $120K to settle lawsuits against her for abuse when she was a cop, including assaulting and handcuffing an infant and falsely arresting some church ladies for shopping while black.

Mark Knoller’s been around for a long time. He’s covered every POTUS since Gerry Ford. He absolutely knows that there’s a tradition of newly nominated tickets giving joint interviews after their party’s convention.
He’s just a fucking hack. Has been for a long time.
