All the real journalists are leaving corporate media for Substack and podcasts. Pretty soon, CNN is just going to be Jake Tapper and Scott Jennings reminding everyone that Biden is old.
I love how that CBS "splaination" about their "worries" over the ( non-existent ) "equal time" rule made sure to mention the name of Jasmine Crockette when it talked about being fair to the other candidates. I would guess they thought their phony "equal time" rule applied only to potential candidates running in a primary, and not candidates from the other party looking to run for the same position.
Way to be transparently fuckheaded. They should have kept Jasmine Crockette's name out of their fucking "legalese".
It could be fun for late night TV to give "equal air time" to ppl they don't like, just to have the most aggressive, hostile, and confrontational interviews ever committed to the airwaves . Yep. Sure would be a shame if that happened
Equal Time Rule applies only to broadcast TV. Honestly, the idea that "airwaves" are limited is obsolete, but there it is.

The equal-time rule was not broken, it’s a talk show, and how many of those on Fox News did candidate Trump call into where no one asked Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton to weigh in? LOL, nothing matters anymore.
"President Donald John Trump’s [sic] approval rating just hit 36 percent! In fact, most of the polling companies have him right about there."
And that, in a nutshell, is why Gallup has ceased polling on the Fulvous Fuckwad's approvals. The powers that are there learned a lesson so they are all chickenshit cowards afraid to antagonize him.

Sorry, but not quite. It's the sycophants that monitor TV for him, and as is typical of tattletales they go running to daddy to inform him of perceived wrongdoings.

Because I can absolutely picture him glued to the TV all day long, looking for mentions of his name. And I can see him throwing a fit when anyone doesn’t praise him to the high heavens.
I mean, honestly, what else is he doing when he isn’t scheduled to receive another fake award? He’s definitely not reading his daily intelligence briefing or anything presidential.
Brad, I'm not sure that in his advanced state of dementia he even reads much anymore (can't remember what he's read). Probably he just follows visual inputs.
So sad about Tiedrich's loss. He's a vengeful angel, and she seemed like a standard angel. We need both moving forward, Wonketeers! Remember we're this close to surviving 13 nasty, hateful, vindictive months from Shitler's Second Round
36%? Sounds pretty low, doesn't it? That's 123,000,000 people. Doesn't sound so low now, does it? Could there really be that many people so deluded as to love Stinky's stinky stink? There are! We are fucked.
We’re not fucked. In case you didn’t notice, 123,000,000 people isn’t a majority.
But I definitely believe that number, because I have former friends and current family members who are immersed in the right wing media ecosystem, and they literally don’t know the facts about what is happening, they just hear him praised daily for being the best president ever.
Hear him praised daily? Shucks. the ones I encounter are the ones doing that praising, just to troll the libs. These MAGAs are all childish douchebags.

Remember during the campaign when the major networks would show hours of an empty podium before Trump even spoke?

"Air Force One jets to be repainted in Trump’s preferred colors"
Pathetic, and very expensive. What a vile piece of shit that disgusting old man is.
Gold leaf?
The dude has the taste of a four year old.
We're lucky it's not the White House...
Just wait
Arrrrggghhhhhhhh
Do they not understand that a gold colored plane looks like a flying piece of shit? Could that be what they were going for?
I can't pretend this is a win.
Crockett will be on with Jen in the 9:00 hour on MSNBC; Talarico with Lawrence at 10:00.
Bite me, Brendan.
(And may all of the gawds, fates, and karma smile on Stephen Colbert.)
So if Frump's approval rating is 36%, can we maybe, hopefully, expect a landslide victory for Dems in November mid-terms?
Cross your fingers !
No, the elections will be rigged.
Well, they're not doing a very good job of that lately. We've done nothing but win in special elections.
"Just exactly what parts of American culture do conservatives hope to preserve besides the guns? They really ought to be much more specific."
They only care about preserving their power, and as we are witnessing, they will do it at any cost.
Yes. Oppression of women and POC and anyone not white, male, hetero, x-tian.
Slavery
The white man parts, and nothing else!

“It's the sycophants that monitor TV for him…”
I’m not convinced that’s an accurate take.
Because I can absolutely picture him glued to the TV all day long, looking for mentions of his name. And I can see him throwing a fit when anyone doesn’t praise him to the high heavens.
I mean, honestly, what else is he doing when he isn’t scheduled to receive another fake award? He’s definitely not reading his daily intelligence briefing or anything presidential.
Brad, I'm not sure that in his advanced state of dementia he even reads much anymore (can't remember what he's read). Probably he just follows visual inputs.
TV is harder. Someone has to read it to him. Or at least give a two-sentence summary.

Only 7 percent of Germans were members of the Nazi Party in 1933.
Just sayin'.
Brendan Carr and Jeremy Carl came from the same manufacturing facility, just slight variations on their basic mediocre white man model.
