Yet Another Media Tale — Trump Tear-Gassed Protesters For a Church Photo Op — Collapses

For more than a year, it has been consecrated media fact that former President Donald Trump and his White House, on June 1 of last year, directed the U.S. Park Police to use tear gas against peaceful Lafayette Park protesters, all to enable a Trump photo-op in front of St. John’s Church. That this happened was never presented as a possibility or likelihood but as indisputable truth. And it provoked weeks of unmitigated media outrage, presented as one of the most egregious assaults on the democratic order in decades.

This tale was so pervasive in the media landscape that it would be impossible for any one article to compile all the examples. “Peaceful Protesters Tear-Gassed To Clear Way For Trump Church Photo-Op,” read the NPR headline on June 1. The New York Times ran with: “Protesters Dispersed With Tear Gas So Trump Could Pose at Church.” CNN devoted multiple segments to venting indignation while the on-screen graphic declared: “Peaceful Protesters Near White House Tear-Gassed, Shot With Rubber Bullets So Trump Can Have Church Photo Op.”

ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos “reported” that “the administration asked police to clear peaceful protesters from the park across the White House so that the President could stage a photo op.” The Intercept published an article stating that “federal police used tear gas and rubber bullets to clear protesters from Lafayette Square in front of the White House,” all to feature a video where the first interviewee said: “to me, the way our military and police have behaved toward the protesters at the instruction of President Trump has almost been Nazi-like.”Nazi-like. This was repeated by virtually every major corporate outlet…

CLOWN SHOW: Leftist Hack Who Told Kamala Harris “I Voted for You” at Guatemala Presser — Is a Fake Reporter and Lied About Working at Hispanic Channel

Earlier today at her presser in Guatemala, a far-left reporter “Maria” from UniNoticias told Kamala Harris, “I voted for you.”

This was during the question and answers period today on her disastrous tour of Latin America.

But it was just more fake news.

The “reporter” does not work at UniNoticias or Univision. Daniel Coronell, president of Univision Noticias, released a statement following the presser that Maria Fernanda Reyes DOES NOT work at their media organization.

It was all a stunt by the fake news media.
What horrible and pathetic people.

Exposed: China Paid American Media Outlets Millions To Publish Propaganda

China Daily, a Chinese state-run media outlet, is currently paying multiple U.S. news agencies millions of dollars to publish Chicom propaganda.

According to Justice Department documentsTime magazine, the Los Angeles TimesChicago Tribune, and Foreign Policy magazine are all currently receiving money from the Chinese outlet.

For example, as part of a $700,000 advertising campaign paid for by China DailyTime published 75 online articles from the outlet in the past year.

The lucrative deal resulted in Time posting content promoting a Chinese drone maker that provided products to surveil Uyghurs being held captive, an article promoting China’s five-year plan, and several other pro-China pieces.

However, unlike The Wall Street Journal who once took money from China DailyTime magazine failed to disclose the fact that the outlet is funded by the Chinese government.

In the past six months, China Daily increased its advertising spending by over one million dollars.

Time magazine received $700,000 for advertising, the Los Angeles Times was paid $272,000, Foreign Policy and Financial Times received $291,000 and $371,577, respectively and Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail raked in $329,898.

With China paying American media outlets so much money, it’s not surprising many of them chose to toe the line when it was reported COVID-19 could have been leaked from a Wuhan biolab.

Now, facts have emerged forcing mainstream media to admit the likely scenario that the lab was in fact responsible for the release of the virus.

Time magazine chose to sign the deal with China Daily after The Journal, the New York Times, and the Washington Post all ended their partnerships with the state-run outlet last year.

The Times even admitted they ended the partnership after concerns about publishing Chinese propaganda.

Massachusetts School Committee Allows Real-Time Crime Center To Monitor Students Live

How does a school committee respond to a year of remote student learning? How will the Springfield, MA School Committee respond to post-COVID schooling?

Now that public schools are reopening (just in time for summer vacation) what are officials worried about? Is it face-to-face learning? Is it in-person interactions with students? Nope, it is mass surveillance and how to let Real-Time Crime Centers (RTCC) monitor students under the guise of public safety.

As MassLive reports, the decision to let the Springfield Police Department monitor students in real-time “feels tone deaf.”

The school committee took a half hour to decide that the best way to make students and faculty feel safe is to allow Big Brother to monitor them in real-time.

It is becoming more apparent to even casual observers, that our public schools resemble our prison system. Our schools are increasingly tied to the school-to-prison pipeline with CCTV cameras watching a students’ every movement; to weapons detectors at entrances, to vape detectors in bathrooms, and to police officers waiting for students to commit an infraction.

Will tying school surveillance cameras to RTCCs be the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back?

Instagram is forcing users to remove satirical posts about Fauci emails

Shortly after Dr. Anthony Fauci’s emails were published by BuzzFeed and The Washington Post after Freedom of Information Act requests, Facebook and Instagram started to suppress mentions and screenshots of them after they were flagged by its third-party “fact checkers.”

Now, Instagram is using these third-party fact checks to flag satirical posts about these emails and force users to delete them.

Luke Rudkowski, founder of the independent news outlet We Are Change, reported that when he shared a post that jokes about Fauci recommending “face masks over your eyes so you can’t read his leaked emails” on Instagram, he was told it was “missing context” based on a fact check from USA Today.
