Apparently people think socialist just = generic Bad Person, so anyone who uses it is either trolling or hateful and ignorant, rather than...just...well informed.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Conservatives? Hateful and ignorant? Surely you jest.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
Because you can only be conservative or liberal.

Good job not reading actual news.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
Good job at using a sensationalist news site that has headlines like "Obama's Terrorist Ties and Radical Roots" and presents opinion as fact as your source for your news. Fox News too moderate for you?

em>President Barack Obama sparked more controversy after awarding the U.S. government’s highest civilian honor, the Medal of Freedom, to divisive labor activist Dolores Huerta, a fellow “community organizer,” collectivist, radical feminist, as well as the honorary chair of Democratic Socialists of America. DSA, which openly calls for "restructuring society," even more "massive redistribution of income" and increased central planning on its website, is the largest socialist organization in the nation and Socialist International’s main U.S. affiliate.

Outraged critics slammed Obama’s decision to award the prestigious medal to such a controversial figure, calling it an embarrassment and disgrace to the nation. Huerta, of course, has evoked passionate nationwide criticism for absurd statements like the oft-cited “Republicans hate Latinos,” which helped provoke a nationwide outcry against tax-funded so-called “Mexican-American studies” programs. She regularly attacks the United States for allegedly stealing land from Mexico, too.

Is this real life? People consider this type of journalism to be "actual news"?

No, you're right, we should only listen to news that purposefully leaves out important events because it looks bad for whatever bias they stand for.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
*this is what conservatives actually believe*

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
*presuming anyone who believes Obama is socialist is conservative*? Or *presuming these news outlets are conservative*?

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
You honestly think the site you just posted isn't a conservative website? Or that the majority of people who call Obama a socialist aren't conservative?

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
We obviously have a different definition of 'conservative', considering that site slams conservatives as much as it does liberals.

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
It's founded by the John Birch Society, which is a conservative organization.

TBF that doesn't make what it shares untrue, even if it WERE conservative funded.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2012-06-06 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
It's presenting the news as fearmongering with a conservative bias presenting opinions as facts in what is intended to be an objective.

If you're trying to prove a point, posting an article from that site isn't going to help you.

Like, if someone were to say "Many were outraged at the election of Barack Obama because they believe him to be a secret Muslim from Kenya" clearly that would be putting an extremely slanted perspective on it and presenting it as fact, even if there are a few fringe nutjobs who tout it as being factual.
