Remember the Steele dossier that was all the rage 4 years ago? The foundation of Russian collusion? Now the FBI is arresting the authors for lying. The media must maintain their monopoly on information and misinformation.

I remember that, and now the media is silent about that. Washington Post had an opinion article about the arrest stating its bad news for the media.

Indeed that's just another example of why I'm always saying the media is manipulated trash (said same thing on here for years ..always gets downvoted)! The pizza parlor pedophilia thing on the opposite side omg lol If your intelligent turn off all for profit media and enjoy your life far from it! Otherwise your letting yourself be fooled by greed/money/deception that manipulates the media or the media's own purposeful misinformation.

  > The pizza parlor pedophilia thing on the opposite side omg lol What is the "opposite side" of the media? What do you mean by this sentence?

    Right wing minded folks somewhere made up some crazy story that Hilary Clinton was harboring children in the basement of a pizza parlor in DC for pedophiles. Do not quote me regarding the exact details of that story but something to that extent. So as I've said here on Hacker News for years all media ... liberal to conservative for profit media is manipulated trash either externally or internally. Any intelligent person would be ignoring all of it and enjoying life far from it!

There you have it. Remember the 'death of Kim Jong Un' reports? [0] Same thing all over again. When the narrative that the media distorts for years has been blown wide open, they start running away and hide it from being reported, even if new developments are announced elsewhere. When it comes to Big Tech, they are just as worse and will unleash whatever Orwellian powers they have to continue to spread the false news and label the truth they don't like as 'misinformation' or whatever. The mainstream media cannot help themselves to be in search of the villain of the week; with Big Tech on speed dial just in case.
