Warping reality has serious consequences. While not a word of what follows is about manufactured housing, that does not mean that our industry and scores of others aren’t being impacted.
The same forces that are defining reality in the body politics are routinely ‘defining’ the public’s perception about manufactured homes, and numerous other topics too.
For those who do not realize, Glenn Greenwald is not only an attorney turned journalist. But he is also openly homosexual. So, for those who are moved solely by identify politics, one might think it odd that Greenwald is exposing the story linked below, as well as others that follow. But some in journalism do care about accuracy and ‘the truth’ about this or that event, as opposed to ‘the narrative’ – no matter how popular.
Here’s the Mateen reporting. I assumed he had set out to murder LGBTs before I did reporting because the media said it over and over. I assumed Sicknick was murdered with a fire extinguisher. The media spreads falsehoods *constantly* to millionshttps://t.co/Uqje2pb9aQ

With the Trump “Impeachment” – or for some, ‘sham-peachment’ – Senate “trial” underway, events on January 6, 2021 are front and center. Greenwald called out mainstream media today for failing to do their job on investigating the issue below, as well as for inaccurately reporting about it.
How and why did the media spend an entire month definitively affirming what appears to be a completely false story about the only person said to have been killed by the Capitol mob: Officer Brian Sicknick?
Why do we not know how or even when he died? https://t.co/XLg2OR0EoA

Once more for new readers and as a reminder to longtime ones. Greenwald is not a Trump supporter. He simply seems to have an affinity for what is demonstrable.

Corporate media outlets (and their loyal employees with the “journalist” title) hate everything and everyone that they can’t control with their shaming and pressure campaigns.

If you don’t see what these media outlets have become & how toxic and repressive they are, then it’s very difficult to understand anything about the political climate.
These corrupted institutions affect everything because they’re the primary conduits of information for millions https://t.co/dyd1CVTxbo

This big story published by the NYT about Sicknick’s death is simply false. The headline itself may be false, but the key events it purports to describe never happened. This caused virtually the media to spend a full month repeating this as fact.https://t.co/sydme7fE8b pic.twitter.com/81sdSOkEy4
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 11, 2021
Greenwald also spotlighted that AP was ‘finally’ reporting on the purported corruption at the anti-Trump Lincoln Project.
Good @AP exposé proving what what was already obvious:
1) @ProjectLincoln lied when it denied knowing of complaints about John Weaver’s sexual misconduct;
2) It was a massive financial scam to enrich its founders at the expense of gullible liberals.https://t.co/k6lFrgqzS4 pic.twitter.com/U6RRKIEPdO

They also covered up rampant complaints of sexually predatory behavior in their organization and then, when they surfaced, outright lied to the public, claiming the knew nothing.
But as we’ll see with Neera Tanden’s confirmation, that stuff is just a partisan game that’s played. pic.twitter.com/l7Wm1Vh4Ni

If you tried to say about the 2020 election what soon-to-be OMB Director Neera Tanden said above about the 2016 election: that the results were fraudulent, you’d be banned — at the insistence of Democrats and corporate journalists — from every social media platform.
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 10, 2021
That Russian hackers tampered with the results of the 2016 presidential election is a batshit conspiracy theory. It also proved to be toxic: it made 2/3 of Dems believe Hillary really won the election, but Russians changed the vote tallies.
Yet Neera spread it & it’s fine.

I hope people on the right, deeply and justifiably concerned with how media outlets casually fire people the minute they express a banished view, will look at what happened here & vehemently condemn it even if they disagree with the punished view.

Obama DOJ concluded it could not prosecute Assange without creating a major threat to press freedom.
The Biden Admin is doing the opposite: appealing the UK judge's refusal to extradite.

It’s a total abuse of power for @RepMaloney to use her position as House Chair to investigate Parler’s finances because she perceives it as ideologically adverse.
