Fifty years ago, I joined in protests against the Vietnam war. Today the mainstream media is smearing pro-Palestine student protests in ways that are even worse than how we were slandered back then.
All I see is pro protest coverage though? There’s loads of video showing Jewish students getting roughed up on campus, none of it on the news. When those guys showed up to take down the encampment, it was wall to wall coverage about the aggressive actions.
Similar for Columbia. Barely saw any coverage of the arrests that seem to be mostly agitators rather than students. Ground had a section on the blind spots the other day on this not getting coverage.
People are constantly saying that all of the news coverage is anti-palestinian but I don’t see it and you’re telling me to go to a single Network to find it. That circle doesn’t Square.

We truly do live in Echo Chambers.
Flip on FOX News.
Fuck no. Why would I watch that shit?

Then try the NYT or the WSJ or any number of talk radio channels.
I listen to podcasts from both of those. They’re nowhere near as biased as BBC or others who are covering the situation.
