You're being downvoted for your use of the term "MSM," which ironically is a term used by fake news sites like Infowars to try and legitimize their own deceit.

- chiefalchemist 7y agoAgain. The irony is fitting. The confirmation bias runs deep on HN, even if many pretend it doesn't. The votes either way have no value. It's as if fake fear should be enough to coddle the duped.
- seattle_spring 7y agoAre you claiming that Infowars is a legitimate news source?
- jakeogh 7y agoYou are the only one talking about it. MSM means mainstream (aka mockingbird) news. It's not like IW invented the acronym.

- seattle_spring 7y agoThey may have not invented it, but their fans parrot the term so much that it's pretty much become a calling card.
