BREAKING: The News Will Be Ignoring the Events in Nevada (big surprise
)
Greetings, my friends and greetings, my trolls (tell David Brock that I said, Hello!). Its been a busy couple of days for those of us whove been trying to report on the open sabotage of democracy that occurred on Saturday at the state democratic convention in Nevada! Weve been carefully combing through the dozens of hours of footage taken by the heroic delegates, documenting first-hand accounts, and presenting all that weve found in articles like these.
Meanwhile, people have used hashtags like #NVDemConvention and #ElectionFraud, which have been taking off on social media everywhere but have you noticed who **isnt** noticing all of this? Most of the major news outlets! This probably isnt surprising to many of you because, even from the beginning of the 2016 democratic primaries, youve known that many of these news outlets are also among Hillary Clintons top donors. That being the case, weve had to deal with their unfair, heavily biased coverage for the past 7 or 8 months (or forever, really) but this this time the media is going too far, in this authors opinion. If they refuse to report on the murder of democracy, then they have become accomplices. Just take a look at todays front pages from the New York Times, CNN, and Huffington Post, which (other than Yahoo! & Google) are the top-3 most-visited news websites:

Notice that there is not a single mention of the democracy-disaster that occurred in Nevada this weekend! And, judging from the amount of web-traffic that I (and many writers on the subject) have endured, it certainly isnt because the Nevada convention isnt a hot topic.
Think about it the #NVdemConvention is certainly news (no matter how stringently you define it) and it is certainly a hot enough topic to bring a lot of web-traffic (so it would also make sense to cover the story from a business perspective). Now, if it makes sense to cover the story because its important news AND it makes sense to cover the story because it would bring in money for their advertisers then, why on earth would they not be covering it?

(1,166 posts)I too searched yesterday and this morning for reports. Either nothing or op-eds using the convention as a dishonest opportunity to characterize the Bernie delegates as similar to Trump supporters. It's insane-making to spend even 2 minutes thinking about how the corporate owned media has blanked itself across every nook and cranny of this country like a giant octopus and spews propaganda 24/7 (either that or completely censors information it does not want the US population to know).
