Thank you, mainstream media, for showing how complicit and willing you are to shill any view given by those in power.

Journalism is dead and has been for decades, sadly.

They feared satire would be dead, but the onion has been killing it

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago

I mean, it's still pretty good in the free world. There is decay, but it's not like living in countries like Russia, USA, or China. There's a reason why Murdoch left Australia.

This was too stupid to be true, yet they ran with it. The MSM is dying, from self-inflicted wounds.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 54 points 10 months ago

Would like more confirmation on this than a picture of a tweet saying so.

Its very much still up, now just framed in a "maybe do your own research before believing us" kinda way lmao

Early Bulletin Said Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology; Some Sources Urge Caution

Thank you! That’s hardly a retraction, innit?

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 29 points 10 months ago

It's not.

But obviously their affirmation is as credible as the tweet. Surprise, surprise, narratives are trying to get the upper spin. The tribes continue. Nothing is learned; nothing is gained. It goes on...

Transgender ideology?

Damage is done. MAGA idiots will run with this regardless. Look at the anti-vaxx crowd as examples

[-] HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

and all retractions and corrections will be touted as cover ups. The damage is done, innocents will be attacked over it.

[-] tempest@lemmy.ca 11 points 10 months ago

Lol they will never see the retractions. I'm sure my more conservative friends will bring this up as of its gospel years after.

One of them recently referred to the Trump shooter as a blue haired lefty extremist.

[-] Philharmonic3@lemmy.world 36 points 10 months ago

Release the Epstein files.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

Rumour has it the Epstein files are scrawled with transgender ideology, only one way to know for true.

[-] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

Well pedo-prez is certainly enjoying a break from this right now. Once again, and for the last time, Charlie has been his useful idiot.

[-] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 30 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Rupert Murdoch deserves to be flayed alive for his crimes against humanity and its societies.

Nothing will happen as a result of this, if justice is going to be brought against the global oligarchy it won't come from our governments.

[-] notannpc@lemmy.world 27 points 10 months ago

Conservatives are incapable of being shamed. They elected a pedophile and convicted felon who put together the least qualified government in history, and cheered when a South African Nazi threw out Nazi salutes behind the podium of the president. If none of that could make them feel ashamed, then falsely blaming the shooting on their current greatest enemy, trans people, has no chance.

Suspect's bullet casings had anti-fascist inscriptions engraved
By Danielle Abreu
Gov. Cox confirmed that investigators discovered a bolt-action rifle and scope wrapped in a towel and inscriptions engraved on bullet casings belonging to the suspect in the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk.

One of the inscriptions read, "Hey, fascist. Catch!" and another read, “If you read this, you are gay." A third casing had the lyrics to “Bella Ciao," an Italian folk anthem sung by the anti-fascist resistance movement during World War II.

Looks like it's possible. Sidenote, hilarious to me hearing the Utah governor read what sounds like c/196 transcriptions in such an official voice.

[-] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I mean those are definitely anti-fascist, but I don't see a damn thing that could be interpreted as transgender.

Reuters:

The bullet that killed Kirk had also been inscribed: "Notices Buldge OWO what’s this?”

Not enough people are talking about this. Makes 0 sense in context but great regardless.

Honestly, if there's gonna be engravings on bullet cases, I'd leave just three words: Change My Mind.

Conservatives have no shame. That's why the U.S is where it is.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

Regressives feel no shame. People without empathy don't feel shame. They do promote and support hate.

I heard he said "Hilary Clinton sends her regards purple monkey dishwasher" right before he opened fire.

[-] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Damage was done and the anger it put into conservative hearts isnt going away even if they admit it was bullshit. They will justify their anger with some vague comeback and keep on hating

[-] foggianism@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

WJS, is that the same newspaper that reported the 40 beheaded babies in Israel then retracted it?

If they can make up shit then I can as well. The shooter was definitely a hardcore maga supporter. TRN obviously stands for Trump National Republic or something idk

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Like they’d ever apologize. “Well this is what libs do anyway…”

[-] buttnugget@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

There was one unused casing that said something like “take that fascist” so I can understand why they’d call it anti fascist. The cringe ones were just assigned to trans people who also have online cringe culture.
