Talia Lavin, whose tweet about a veteran’s tattoo implied he was a Nazi, has apologized to him and resigned from her position as a fact-checker at the New Yorker magazine.
Good.

The wounded Marine is willing to die for her freedom to use the first amendment to make fun of his body markings.
He probably would have told her he didn’t need her apology. Reminds me of a song.
Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don’t need to fight
To prove I’m right
I don’t need to be forgiven.
Don’t cry
Don’t raise your eyes
It’s only teenage wasteland.
Thanks to all our young men and women, and I know some old farts. ha. that are still standing on that wall for our freedoms.
I can foresee a move to Moronto, where she will be hailed as a hero at the Communist Broadcasting Corporation, or ANY of the $600 MILLION media in this failing state.
That’s a stretch.
Like her, you’ve made a not-particularly-clever link to a subject or subjects that have no bearing on the issue.
Rob, you sound like a “fact checker” yourself!!!
Her article has a picture of a swastika made from ar15s. Historically speaking, completely fake, but 100% accurate to the progressive mind… to paraphrase Dan Rather. People have won Pulitzers for less.
Oldtimer64, imho, the fact that this society is in the state it is in, reminds me of the thumb tappers on their phones. There is some potent elixir that causes people to be able to ignore their surroundings and rely on their gadget for stability. For that matter, i am tapping now to respond.
But something is up and it’s destructive.
GQ. Feminists teaching men how to be better feminists, by masquerading as a mens magazine.
Smell ya later, skank.
All forms of socialism are evil as are all socialists, some just don’t realize it.
It’s interesting that with the MSM including our own CBC the “mistakes” invariably err in the same direction.
This, like previous post, http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/index.php/2020/01/22/this-is-cnn-30/, is the way the communists, socialists, fascist and other such ‘ists with a mouthpiece sprinkle the “news”.
One here understands that many don’t believe that this actually happens daily on the “news” broadcasts and in the papers.
This is a tactic of ideologues, to plant ideas or rather happenings that never happened. In the process, those that are supposed to get upset about it will get upset, those that don’t care are the “privileged white men, meaning that every white man is privileged, then there are the misogynists and you can add all the newspeak characterization of the damned white men.
Once the seed is planted, it does not matter anymore that the originator apologized, in near and later future there will be those that will pick on the initial story without mentioning the apology to support their ideology.
This was a common practice in the communist press.
Apparently, the “free press” adopted the ideology instead of news.
News seems to be distant memory to the “news” peddlers.
“First the sentence then the trial.”
The American President surpasses all previous incarnations of political truthiness by rightfully, finally declaring the Media is the Enemy.
Which, frankly, well frightfully true, presents a huge problem for a putative Democracy that requires a vibrant, effective Media to operate properly.
Teardown and rebuild needed.
Whilst, here in Canada, we subsidize our billionaire Media agenda/owners to regularly lie to, misdirect and misinform Canadians about their agenda.
You say potato, I say, is there anything more pathetic than that runny-nosed, snivelling, apologetic, virtue-signalling, politically correct, ignorant, uninformed, easily fooled, extremely apathetic, not too bright guilt-ridden specimen that self-identifies as the pitiful Canadian?
I mean, really. How bright do you have to be to continually vote for Quebec French Rule?
The most selfish, self-centered, entitled species on earth!
So really, just how dumb are Canadians?
No use talking numbers. Must be what, 70 or 80 percent innumeracy?
And what, 50 or 60 percent illiteracy?
Just the way you would want it in the second largest country in the world, with a tiny population, immense natural wealth, the world’s biggest candy store/ big brother next door and the Government taking 41% and growing of the economic pie.
So much wrong and zero pushback.
The current Canadian populace is a screaming embarrassment.
One and all.
The call went out for all good men to rush to the aid of their country.
And no one stirred.
Canucked
“..The most selfish, self-centered, entitled species on earth!”
ya missed out on the Main point of Quebeceurs:
Inherent & Genetic Corruption.
Its a Feature not a bug.
Bingo-“like”.. I will say it again.. NO MORE pm’s FROM QUEBEC!
“As Stars & Stripes reported in 2018…”
Yes, this was news when it happened 2 years ago. Today, not so much.
So is this the Saskatchewan branch of the Nazi Party?

It’s a frigging Maltese Cross – some people are just stupid. The German Iron Cross was not in any way Nazi although in WWII it contained a swastika. The Iron Cross preceded and survived Nazism.

Who needs facts when there is a narrative to be maintained?
