      Earlier today I spent at least 15 fucking minutes fucking googling and googling and googling. I went to three fucking corporate media sites (CNN, MSNBC, New York Post). And then - of course - I was fucking forced to disable my adblockers. After all that effort - I ended up scrolling through two vids that were total fucking crap. They only had a few seconds and the rest of it was anchor and/or onscreen text yacking. The New York Post had no vid that I was visible to me. I also went to Youtube to similar results.

      Corporate fucking media will never do it but they need to show entire, unedited vids and then start their tedious fucking explanations that we can skip. Nobody cares. We all want our dessert and fuck the vegetables.

        i relate 10000%. i don’t even click on corporate media anymore, it’s just the laziest photos/videos + censorship + someone telling you the correct liberal way to feel about it. they have absolutely nothing of value, it’s slop. “video shows moments before […]” is the standard now, they show everything except what you really want to see. their only job is to control public opinion, they don’t want to show anything that could make us have an original thought.

          “video shows moments before […]”

          After watching the first vid - I muted the audio on my PC. God, they are annoying.

          their only job is to control public opinion

          It was just passed the top of the hour so I checked CNN and MSNBC pirate streams. CNN is covering the death. MSNBC is doing what it always does - covering non-breaking news Trump shit that was news yesterday.

          CNN reporter just pulled an Onion and declared - “His wife said they had received some threats. But she didn’t know why.” Gee, that’s a fucking toughie. Why would a American healthcare CEO get death threats?
