Is the news story "Telling you" the facts or "Selling you" the facts?

 

The Fourth Estate, commonly known as the Press, is one of the first freedoms an authoritarian ruler will attack and control. The old saying "he who rules the press will control what the people will believe" is deadly true. There is an addition to that rule that must also be remembered: Whether the information they control is factual or manufactured by them is of much greater importance. As a rule, if someone is demanding that you choose only their source, it would be wise to reject them.

Today, the word sprang  from the lips of the White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, that liberal outlets were removed from the press rotation. This action is high on the to-do list of things for an authoritarian rule of the nation. The follow-up to that action is that they will pick the Pool Reporters and  who will cover Trump.

Considering the other dictatorial moves this Administration has made, we are well on our way to a hornet's nest of angry and revengeful authoritarian hornets!

But of the most tyrannical moves thus far done by this horde of Republican/MAGAs, the most frightening is when they take charge of information!

Choose your news source carefully and fact-check it yourself! If the news story is important to you, make sure you get the one that is accurate!
