CBS News is facing heat over a video the network shared on Twitter Thursday that critics say crops out a critical part of body camera footage showing the police chase that led to 13-year-old Adam Toledo's death in Chicago last month (//https).
Extremely graphic footage shows a Chicago police officer pulling up to a location on the city's West Side on March 29 and immediately encountering two people, one of whom appears to be Toledo, running away from the area.
Toledo stops for a moment before he turns toward the officer, at which point the cop tells him to, "Show me your f—— hands."
The images press "conveniently & intentionally edited out

I didn't know about this cc.

Canadian news is every bit as bad, maybe worse as they take govt money = must help govt., always trying to influence people toward progism by action & by omission

CNN Ratings Down 54 PERCENT Since Inauguration Day
CNN has been hemorrhaging viewers since President Biden took office, with ratings down more than 50 percent in multiple categories since Inauguration Day.
The liberal network spent years attacking former President Donald Trump and the network thrived during his final days in office amid a brief post-election spike. CNN averaged 2.2 million viewers during the first three weeks of 2021, but it has averaged just one million viewers since Biden took office, a staggering decline of 54 percent.
CNN's struggles are even more prominent among the key advertising demographic of adults age 25-54, with a drop of 60 percent. It averaged 617,000 demo viewers from Dec. 28 through Inauguration Day but only 244,000 since Biden entered the White House.
CNN's liberal primetime hosts Anderson Cooper, Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon haven't been able to keep their audiences under the new administration, either.
CNN averaged 3.1 million viewers from 8-11 p.m. from Dec. 28 through Inauguration Day but only 1.4 million since for a whopping 55-percent decline. Over the same time period, CNN's primetime lineup lost 63 percent of its viewers among the crucial demo.
I don't watch CNN.
I don't also, Fash. That said, it alone prolly changed the election .. which no broadcaster has the ethical right to do.
But that's where we are at now ... Everywhere "now" agenda trumps right & wrong .. and the press just reporting and simply doing it's job will never return

True words
However, they overlook those originally in the middle who had few real alternatives beyond "the entire pack" to watch for news who eventually are influenced to vote Dem.
To many these networks of the pack once were considered mainstream .. and still are by many "in the middle"
He who gets the middle always wins .. and that applies to issues as well. Issues that get the middle always win
And I'm talkin bout ALL aspects of life, not just T ... and "Cancel" by omission or aggressive falsehoods
Net sites are more powerful influencers as they not only give prominence to their ways but cancel other opinions .. by omission & by direct cancel
Communication sites by cancelling other opinions .. Search sites by rigging search software to hide what they don't approve of and display what they approve of

Corporate Liberal Media Has A Disinformation Problem, And Polling Proves It
https://dailycaller.com/2021/04/23/corporate-media-disinformation-police-killings-covid-19-russia-polling/?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2360&tpcc%3D=newsletter&pnespid=jLV1pfFZCw2Nzgr5Rw9lh9um.T1glHskqdHReIuq
For the first time, less than half of all Americans said they trust traditional media, according to polling data from the communication firm Edelman's annual trust barometer.
Among those polled, 59% of respondents said traditional media is "purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations."
News coverage of recent trends including police killings of unarmed black people, the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia appear to have followed a similar pattern: corporate media outlets promote false or exaggerated stories and polling data in turn shows liberals are more likely to believe in misinformation about those trends.

Washington Post, NY Times issue major corrections over story that Rudy Giuliani's lawyer called 'totally false'
https://www.theblaze.com/news/washington-post-new-york-times-issue-major-correction-rudy-giuliani-fbi-warning?utm_source=theblaze-dailyAM&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily-Newsletter__AM%202021-05-02&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Daily%20AM
The Washington Post and New York Times issued major retractions on Saturday after initially reporting that Rudy Giuliani and One America News were warned by the FBI they were targets of a major Russian disinformation campaign during the 2020 presidential election season.
What did the newspapers report?
The Post reported on Thursday the FBI warned Giuliani in late 2019 "he was the target of a Russian influence operation aimed at circulating falsehoods intended to damage President [Joe] Biden."
The Post also reported that OAN received a similar warning.
The warning was part of an extensive effort by the bureau to alert members of Congress and at least one conservative media outlet, One America News, that they faced a risk of being used to further Russia's attempt to influence the election's outcome, said several current and former U.S. officials. All spoke on the condition of anonymity because the matter remains highly sensitive. Giuliani received the FBI's warning while deeply involved with former president Donald Trump's 2020 reelection campaign and related activities in Ukraine to surface unflattering or incriminating information about the Biden family.
Meanwhile, the Times claimed Giuliani had received a "defensive briefing" in which FBI agents were "cautioning him that some of the information he was pushing on the Biden family was tainted by Russian intelligence's efforts to spread disinformation."
Giuliani flatly denied the allegations.
Giuliani's attorney, Robert Costello, told CNN, "This story is totally false according to Mayor Giuliani. He never received any such briefing."
What did the retraction say?
The Post issued a retraction acknowledging that neither Giuliani nor OAN received warnings from the FBI as the newspaper initially claimed.
At the top of the story, an editor's note reads:
Correction: An earlier version of this story, published Thursday, incorrectly reported that One America News was warned by the FBI that it was the target of a Russian influence operation. That version also said the FBI had provided a similar warning to Rudolph W. Giuliani, which he has since disputed. This version has been corrected to remove assertions that OAN and Giuliani received the warnings.
The Times, on the other hand, initially edited out their claims about Giuliani having received a warning from the FBI without including an editor's note explaining the correction.
However, the newspaper later added the following note at the bottom of its story, "An earlier version of this article misstated whether Rudolph W. Giuliani received a formal warning from the F.B.I. about Russian disinformation. Mr. Giuliani did not receive such a so-called defensive briefing."

Canadian "Journalists" Sign Anti-Israel Open Letter (//https)
HonestReporting Canada is alarmed to see Canadian journalists sign a partisan and one-sided anti-Israel open letter lobbying Canadian news organizations on how to cover the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The May 14 letter entitled: "An open letter to Canadian newsrooms on covering Israel-Palestine" features the names of 1,539 people as of this writing, most who are activists and academics, but several who are from reputable news organizations like the CBC, Toronto Star, Globe and Mail, CTV News, Macleans, Yahoo News Canada, Chatelaine, Global News, IPolitics, etc.
Importantly, the authors of this letter are unknown, but the letter itself is blatantly tendentious, hypocritical and skewed, and its selective use of facts reflect poorly on those who purport to be professional journalists.
[This is where we are at now - NO honest reporting - Only "Agenda" Reporting
