…\u00a0 the stupider you are, and the sooner you are found out.<\/p>\n

Gee whiz, it used to be that you could at least get some sort of information out of the electronic media that was not total BS, but it appears that those are those Days of Yore we sometimes hear about.\u00a0 And they are now Those Bygone Days.<\/p>\n

Now, the scumbags in the media just cut out what doesn\u2019t suit their meme, rewrite real stuff into complete fabrication (lies, people, lies!), and think it\u2019s okay.<\/p>\n

This time, they\u2019ve gone too far, period.<\/p>\n

CBS, in its wisdom, decided to turn their segment on Gov. Ron deSantis (FL) into a (now rapidly crumbling) pack of lies, meant to discredit him and the way he governs the state of Florida.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/2021\/04\/60-minutes-dishonest-desantis-hit-job\/<\/a><\/p>\n

From the article:\u00a0 T<\/span>here<\/span> is no more accurate way of describing last night\u2019s 60 Minutes<\/em> segment on Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida than as a political hit job. It was an aspersion, a slander, a smear \u2014 a calculated and premeditated calumny contrived for one purpose and one purpose alone: To hint darkly at scandal where none exists, and, thereby, to damage DeSantis in 2022 and beyond. Americans who tuned in to 60 Minutes<\/em> yesterday are now less informed than they were before it aired.<\/p>\n

The supposed \u201cproblem\u201d that 60 Minutes<\/em> highlighted was that Florida\u2019s government has used the popular grocery chain Publix to help it distribute COVID-19 vaccines, that Publix gave $100,000 to Governor DeSantis\u2019s re-election efforts last year, and that the combination of the two represents a quid pro quo.<\/p>\n

This claim is absurd on its face. Not only is Publix the largest and most widely trusted grocery-store chain in the state of Florida, but the majority of its 831 stores in the state have well-equipped pharmacies at which Floridians are accustomed to getting flu shots. Irrespective of any other logistical considerations, it would have been surprising if Publix had\u00a0not<\/em> been one of the major players in the state\u2019s effort. It is true that Publix has recently given $100,000 to Ron DeSantis\u2019s gubernatorial reelection bid. It is also true that it gave a million dollars to the progressive Urban League last year, and that, back in 2018, it gave $100,000 to Democratic campaigns in the state. To believe that there is a connection between this routine behavior and decisions that were made during an unforeseen once-in-a-century pandemic is to stretch oneself to the breaking point. – article<\/p>\n

Someone should tell the people who run CBS (Crackpot Bull Scheisse) that you rot in Hell for this kind of thing, whether it is Big Lies like the NYSlimes going after that teenager a couple years ago, or this bunch of slimeballs at what used to be a good Sunday evening news show.<\/p>\n

The full story is at the link. Why CBS decided to discredit deSantis is beyond me, but unfortunately, their hatchet job is the same as that NYSlimes’ attempt to discredit a 16-year-old kid who had done nothing wrong, and it cost that bunch of muckrakers plenty.<\/p>\n

Where the Hell is Joe McCarthy when you really need him?<\/p>\n
