American Pravda: CNN Part 1, Russia narrative is all about “ratings”

(New York) Project Veritas has released a video of CNN Producer John Bonifield who was caught on hidden-camera admitting that there is no proof to CNN’s Russia narrative.

“I mean, it’s mostly bullshit right now,” Bonifield says. “Like, we don’t have any giant proof.”

He confirms that the driving factor at CNN is ratings:

“It’s a business, people are like the media has an ethical phssssss…All the nice cutesy little ethics that used to get talked about in journalism school you’re just like, that’s adorable. That’s adorable. This is a business.”

According to the CNN Producer, business is booming. “Trump is good for business right now,” he concluded.

Bonifield further goes on to explain that the instructions come straight from the top, citing the CEO, Jeff Zucker:

“Just to give you some context, President Trump pulled out of the climate accords and for a day and a half we covered the climate accords. And the CEO of CNN (Jeff Zucker) said in our internal meeting, he said good job everybody covering the climate accords, but we’re done with that, let’s get back to Russia.”

Bonifield also acknowledged: “I haven’t seen any good enough evidence to show that the President committed a crime.” He continues:

“I just feel like they don’t really have it but they want to keep digging. And so I think the President is probably right to say, like, look you are witch hunting me. You have no smoking gun, you have no real proof.”

“To report not on facts, but instead on narratives that yield high ratings, is exactly the definition of fake news,” said James O’Keefe. “We said we are going after the media, and there is a lot more to come.”

Media and Politicians, two things you can never believe anymore.  Too hard to tell the lies from the truth.

“It is always a danger
To aspirants on the Path

When they begin
To believe and act

As if the ten thousand idiots
Who so long ruled and lived inside

Have all packed their bags
And skipped town
Or
Died.”

Trump Tweets Video of Himself Attacking CNN

 

The altered wrestling video shows Trump punching a man with the CNN logo edited over his head.

 

President Donald Trump is continuing his feud against the media. On Sunday morning, he tweeted a video showing him punching a man with the CNN logo on his head during a WWE wrestling match.

 

The video follows Trump's series of tweets Saturday where he renewed his resentment against what he called the "fake and fraudulent" media. He defended his amount of tweeting as "modern day presedential" and called out CNN saying, "I am thinking about changing the name #FakeNews CNN to #FraudNewsCNN!"

James O'Keefe talking about ethics in journalism and made-up news stories is like Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh, and Donald Trump talking about the sanctity of marriage.

Putin Crushes CNN Reporter Fareed Zakaria Biased Question on Trump

 

Putin is not a saint, in fact, if one plays the game of politics it is hard to emerge from it with clean hands. However, the fact that the press constantly attempts to demonise him and Russia suggest there is a hidden agenda in play. It also indicates from a contrarian perspective that many of the top shadowy players in the West are scared, especially those that fall into the Neo-Con or Zionist camps. At every twist and turn, he seems to have outgunned and outguessed them. He outmanoeuvred them in Georgia during the brief war, he outguessed them in Ukraine, and he caught them with their pants down in Syria.

 

As we are contrarians by nature, whose focus is on the misunderstood field of mass psychology, we find the current developments interesting because just like the markets they suggest that one should not follow the garbage that is being fed to the public. In the markets, it is obvious to any student that if one follows the masses the outcome is always going to be negative. The masses are used as cannon fodder, and the media is the main outlet that is used to con them into always taking the wrong position. Every boom and bust cycle have always ended with the masses holding the empty can. The corporations always find a way to get away with the crime and to sweeten the pot; they are almost always rewarded for their treachery.  Congress ensures that the small player foots the bill; those that can least afford it are taxed the most, while those that can are taxed the least.  That sums up the American dream for you in one sentence; the more apt term would  “American nightmare”.

 

The video below is another clear example of Putin destroying Fareed Zakaria, who tries to twist Putin’s statements only to find out that Putin uses his words against him.

 

 

Never follow mainstream media when it comes to getting real news and when it comes to investing.  Popular media should be seen as a place you go to, to find out what you should not be doing. Read multiple sources and try to see who stands to benefit from a given position. When you follow the money, the answers are quite surprising and revealing; in most cases, it is the total opposite of what Mainstream media is trying to get you to believe. The masses believe that places like Fox 5 and CNN provide unbiased news, but the truth is that they are about as unbiased as a snake is when it comes to giving a rat that is placed in the same cage a fair shake. All mainstream outlets have an agenda, and the agenda is usually one that does not favour the masses.  Thus the only way to step out of this circle of crap is to understand that if you want to find a semblance of the truth you need to work for that information; the same applies to investing. You are not going to get any good investment advice from the so-called gurus out there claiming to know everything. If they did know everything they would not be talking to you; they would be too busy banking the money they are making to waste time with the average Joe.

‘Entire Internet against CNN right now’: Reddit moderator on #CNNBlackmail scandal

 

CNN informally declared war on the Internet and the whole World Wide Web turned against it, the head moderator of /r/The_Donald subreddit, where the clip that triggered the #CNNBlackmail scandal was originally posted, told RT in an exclusive interview.

 

No one should be surprised by the fact that “CNN is suppressing a private citizen’s right of free speech,” he said. The man is a moderator of “The_Donald” Subreddit, where the viral clip, showing US President Donald Trump wrestling a man with the CNN logo for a head, was originally posted and then deleted by its creator. The scandal started after the news network tracked down the alleged meme maker and threatened to disclose his identity if they post such “offensive” content again.

 

The moderator believes that such actions against freedom of speech cannot end up without consequences.

 

“CNN has all of the Internet against them right now, and when organizations attack freedom of speech, it never ends up well for them,” he told RT.

 

“This is an attack on the Internet and CNN has informally declared war upon it. In return we need to hit CNN where it hurts, and tell the advertise companies… that you do not approve of them by running ads at the network or endorsing CNN by running adds.”

 

While CNN says it respects the privacy of the man behind the viral meme, the network said that it “reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change,” which is understood as “complete threat,” ‘PrinceCamelton’ said in the interview. This message was received by the whole community, the moderator said, referring to the threat.

 

CNN has no right to make “blanket threats… telling you to stop doing what you want to do on the Internet” the moderator stated, adding that people should “stick to their guns and do what they think is right.”

 

The moderator also said that he would be frightened if he were the Reddit user who posted the clip.

 

CNN’s move has triggered outrage among the Internet users, resulting in many more mocking memes and videos.

 

“There are hundreds of other gifs just like that, there are subreddits that are dedicated just to making CNN gifs now,” /r/The_Donald moderator said.

 

“What CNN did was unfortunate for them,” US President Donald Trump said, referring to the scandal during his visit to Poland on Thursday.

 

“I think that CNN has really taken it [the viral clip] too seriously, and I think they have hurt themselves very badly,” he stated, adding that the network has been “fake news for a long time.”

Kellyanne Conway Deflects Defending Donald Trump Jr. By Attacking CNN

 

You want to talk about Russia. I want to talk about America."

 

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway on Monday responded to Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a lawyer linked to the Russian government by getting into a heated argument over CNN’s coverage of the Trump administration.

Kellyanne Conway defends Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with Russian lawyer, watch the full interview https://t.co/2zRfras7g2

— CNN (@CNN) July 10, 2017

 

 

Conway backed up Trump Jr.’s latest account of the meeting, which he said occurred because he was promised damaging information about Hillary Clinton during last year’s presidential campaign.  Like Trump Jr., she said that the June 2016 meeting, held at Trump Tower in New York, ended up disclosing “no information provided that was meaningful.” Also reportedly attending were President Donald Trump’s then-campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, and Trump’s son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner.

 

After repeatedly failing to explain why she previously denied the existence of get-togethers between the Trump campaign’s inner circle and Russians and why Trump Jr. initially concealed the true reason for his meeting, Conway criticized CNN for not focusing on policy issues and providing only negative coverage of Trump’s administration.

 

“You want to talk about Russia. I want to talk about America,” she told host Chris Cuomo.

 

“I know, but there are also reasons why you don’t want to talk about Russia, and I do,” Cuomo responded. “It is my responsibility to cover things that matter to the American people, not just the things that are positive to the president. My job is not to curry favor.”

 

Conway and Cuomo argued extensively over the network’s coverage, which Trump and administration officials regularly label as “fake news.” Trump’s attacks against the free press are popular with his base of supporters, polls have shown.

 

Conway also chided the network for not having “more balanced” panels, despite the fact the CNN has been criticized by others for regularly featuring ardent Trump surrogates like Jeffrey Lord as panelists.

Conway: No evidence of collusion in Trump Jr.'s Russian meeting

 

    "Some of the disclosure forms have been amended..." - Kellyanne Conway when asked about previous denials of Russian meetings pic.twitter.com/t58q4XLuOZ
    — Good Morning America (@GMA) July 10, 2017

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway said Monday "there's no evidence of collusion" between Donald Trump Jr. and a lawyer with Russian ties he reportedly met with over compromising information on Hillary Clinton.

"No information was received that was meaningful or helpful and no action was taken," Conway told host George Stephanopoulos on  "Good Morning America." "There was no follow-up whatsoever."

"There's no evidence of collusion" between Trump campaign aides and Russia, Conway added.

When Stephanopoulos pressed Conway about how President Trump's oldest son has changed his story, she shot back that "everybody is trying to convert wishful thinking into hard evidence and haven't been able to do that."

"So as I understand it, George, some of the disclosure forms have been amended since that time and to reflect other meetings including this one."

The New York Times reported Sunday that Donald Trump Jr. attended the meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya with the expectation that he would receive compromising information about Clinton, then the Democratic presidential nominee.

“After pleasantries were exchanged, the woman stated that she had information that individuals connected to Russia were funding the Democratic National Committee and supporting Ms. Clinton,” Trump Jr. said in his statement to the paper. “Her statements were vague, ambiguous and made no sense. No details or supporting information was provided or even offered. It quickly became clear that she had no meaningful information.”

He added that discussions about American adoptions of Russian children was "the true agenda all along and that the claims of potentially helpful information were a pretext for the meeting.”

Trump Jr. met with the lawyer at Trump Tower in early June while serving as a campaign surrogate to his father, who had just clinched the Republican nomination two weeks prior.

Both congressional and federal probes are investigating Russia's meddling in last year's election, as well as possible ties between the Trump campaign and Moscow.
