AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin A CNN reporter who claims to be a fact-checker extraordinaire used the word “lie” 19 times in a news item about the 2020 election. The heavy-handed use of the loaded word occurred in reporter Daniel Dale’s piece about social media not being censorial enough for his liking.
“Twitter says it has quit taking action against lies about the 2020 election” blairs Dale’s headline. The very first sentence reads “Twitter quit taking action to try to limit the spread of lies about the 2020 election, the company said on Friday — a day after another social media platform, YouTube, removed a Republican congressman’s campaign ad because it included a 2020 lie .” It is generally considered poor writing style to use the same word more than once within the same sentence. Even so, Dale uses his pet word yet again in the very next sentence, when he whines that “…Twitter has not been enforcing its ‘civic integrity policy’ in relation to lies about the 2020 election.”
As a literary device, repetition is used to emphasize or persuade the reader that a word or phrase is true. Dale’s piece is positively brainwash-y as it seeks to program readers to recognize any wrongthink that slips past the social media censors as a LIE!
What wrongthink is the righteous fact-checker so concerned about? Any belief, suspicion, or — God forbid — evidence that the 2020 Election was less than immaculate. For example, Dale is dismayed that a Republican U.S. Senate candidate, Missouri Rep. Billy Long, whose ad was banned by YouTube, is still permitted to exist on Facebook and television ad space. In the despised ad, Long utters the forbidden phrase “democrats rigged the election.”
To paraphrase a Democrat standard bearer, the truth of Long’s assertion depends on what the meaning of […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
