Fox News: McDonald’s Twitter account hacked, blasts Trump

Apropos of nothing… “former Obama spokesman @Robt_Gibbs is head of communications for McDonald’s.”
The morally and intellectually superior special sauce on the top of this story comes by way of Josh Barro, Senior Editor at Business Insider

“This is a real brand misstep for McDonald’s. Fat slobs with bad taste are a core Trump demographic.”

So in 2005 @POTUS was not a Billionaire. He made in 2005 over 100 million dollars.

How to write about “populism” in Canada — a media guide.

The science is settled: Here is definitive proof that reporters are the laziest people on the planet.

Snopes, not so transparent. It’s always the same; hire partisans, get partisan.
They should have stuck with Nigerian email scams and urban legends.

That bomb threat? Yeah, it’s what everyone thought. Another in a long string of false-flags. Course, being obvious bait, the media was trumpeting “Council of Conservative Citizens of Canada” all over the place. That’s the narrative the media would like to believe about conservatives. Fake but true.

Never let the facts get in the way of a good narrative.

An immigration website that was supposedly overwhelmed by Americans wanting to flee to Canada because of a Trump presidency was more likely brought down by foreigners scrambling to get a basic travel document before a deadline.
CBC News has learned that the website for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada was already in trouble hours before Donald Trump’s victory became clear on Nov. 8, the day of the U.S. presidential election.

“Nearly a week after the death of the “blind sheik” Omar Abdel Rahman in a U.S. prison, the New York Times published an interview with his lawyer, Lynne Stewart, in which she remembered Rahman not as a terrorist but as the ‘personification of an American hero.’“

Conservative activist James O’Keefe has announced plans to release recordings Thursday morning that he says were made secretly inside CNN.
O’Keefe tells the network in an interview that the media is a “huge target” of his and he’s targeting CNN specifically because it “has a very important role as an arbiter of news.”

You might recall that the Huffington Post made a big deal of refusing to cover Trump on their political pages when he first announced his candidacy. They only carried him on their entertainment pages because they were so smart they knew he could not win.

Then he won.

With gasoline and matches.

Awkward. On Saturday evening, the Post significantly updated Rogin’s column, which noted that “two sources” had said Bannon visited Kelly that day. The credibility of those sources has now been called into question, since the Post can’t verify that the meeting occurred and the White House has categorically denied it.
There’s that and much, much more.

If you're confused about media attacks on Trump for #QuebecMosqueAttack – you've forgotten the time when @SarahPalinUSA shot Gabby Giffords.

Don Surber;

The news media’s coverage of President Trump is so terribly wrong that there is only one thing worse.
Its coverage of Megyn Kelly.
