In college fifty years ago, that was the take off on the New York Times motto, “All the News That’s Fit to Print.”
That was well before the term “Fake News” was coined.
One of the web sites I read is “Legal Insurrection.”
I found this publication during the time Rod Blagojevich was being impeached.
More recently, I was brought back by its coverage of my college’s attempt to drive a bakery and convenience store near the Oberlin College campus because of arrest for shoplifting by a male black student.
No publication covered the trial and the coverup that Oberlin’s administration put and is putting forth than Legal Insurrection.
My college lost a defamation suit that could cost in $35 million, if it fails to win an appeal.
William Jacobson, a law professor at Cornell, founded, guides and writes articles for the publication.
Today, an article appears entitled, “Anti-Regime Protests Erupt in Iran After Airline Shootdown.
It provides videos I have a felling I shall not see on the evening news (although I admit to not being a refular watcher).
Remember the coverage of the massive demonstrations after the Iranian General was killed?
Now there are visual indications that at least university students feel more favorably about America.
Here is a screen shot from one of the videos:
The story explains that the regime paints the flags of the United Statrs and Israel on the street.
When this video was shot, the students were refusing to walk on the flags, which was the intiention of those who ordered them painted.
The reason seems to be the cover-up of missile attack on the Ukranian plane.
Let me know if you see coverage of this story.
Speaking about fakes:
Facebook Glitch Reveals Greta Thunburg’s Father Posting As Teenage Climate Activist.
A Thursday evening software update at Facebook accidentally allowed anyone to view exactly who is posting under the accounts of public figures, businesses and other entities, according to Wired.
The result? For starters, some 3 million followers of teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg have been reading posts written by her father, Svante Thunberg, and a climate activist in India who serves as a delegate at the UN’s Climate Change organization, Adarsh Prathap.
Thunberg, Inc. claims Greta is still the one writing the content.

The Northwest Herald should be at the top of the list as it seems much of their daily news isn’t investigative but what they are told.
Who is an actual investigative Reporter on their staff?
Quite frankly they just have order takers who should be employed at Denny’s.
I’m waiting for this Blog’s anti-Trumper’s, to explain to us how this is all ‘Trump’s fault’.
If the Mullah’s are overthrown in a Berlin Wall-style moment in history, this will be a little awkward for this Blog’s Resistance F’wits.
I would be very careful about quoting the dailymail which is a subversive rag.
Regarding incorrect/wrong/fake so-called news –
Per: https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-covington-nick-sandmann-defamation-suit-settled
“CNN has settled a multimillion-dollar defamation lawsuit filed by Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann over its botched coverage of a viral confrontation with a Native American elder that had portrayed the Kentucky teen as the aggressor.
Last March, Sandmann’s attorneys filed a suit against CNN for its coverage of the incident before all the facts had surfaced. The teen was seeking a whopping $800 million in damages from CNN, NBC and the Post.
Fox 19 first reported that CNN settled with Sandmann on Tuesday for an undisclosed amount. The $250 million defamation suit sought damages for the “emotional distress Nicholas and his family suffered” in the fallout of the network’s reporting.
McMurtry told Fox News that lawsuits against “as many as 13 other defendants will be filed in 30 to 40 days.”
Among them: ABC, CBS, The Guardian, The Huffington Post, NPR, Slate, The Hill, and Gannett which owns the Cincinnati Inquirer, as well as miscellaneous other small outfits, according to McMurtry. Separate lawsuits against the Washington Post and NBC have already been filed, he added.
Sandmann was swept up in a controversy after a video clip depicted the “MAGA” hat-wearing student smiling at Nathan Phillips beating a drum and singing a chant as he was surrounded by Sandmann’s peers, who all had joined in on the chant in front of the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Judge reopens Covington Catholic student’s defamation lawsuit against Washington PostVideo
However, several mainstream media outlets, including CNN, portrayed the incident with Sandmann and the other teens as being racially charged before it was discovered by additional footage that a group of Black Hebrew Israelites had provoked the confrontation by slinging racial slurs at the students as they were waiting for their bus following last year’s March For Life event in Washington D.C. Footage then showed Phillips, who was in town for the Indigenous Peoples March, approaching the students amid the rising tension between the two groups.”
You have to wonder if the cable news network in the lawsuit reported the above details and WHAT if ANYTHING they will be doing such as Corrective Action.

“NBC Admits It Rigged Crash, Settles GM Suit
By MICHAEL PARRISH and DONALD W. NAUSS
Feb. 10, 1993
12 AM
TIMES STAFF WRITERS
In an extraordinary public apology, NBC said Tuesday night that it erred in staging a fiery test crash of a General Motors pickup truck for its “Dateline NBC” news program and agreed to settle a defamation suit filed by the auto maker.”
Per:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Neda_Agha-Soltan
“The death of Neda Agha-Soltan (Persian: ندا آقاسلطان – Nedâ Âghâ-Soltân; 23 January 1983 – 20 June 2009) drew worldwide attention after she was shot dead during the 2009 Iranian election protests. Agha-Soltan, a student of philosophy, was participating in the protests with her music teacher, and was walking back to her car when she was fatally shot in the chest.
Eyewitnesses are reported by western sources as saying Agha-Soltan was shot by the Basij, a paramilitary organization.[7][8][9] Her death was captured on video by bystanders and broadcast over the Internet, and the video became a rallying point for the opposition. Agha-Soltan’s death became iconic in the struggle of Iranian protesters against the disputed election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.”

The local newspaper had a story about an upcoming march in Woodstock to commemorate the Jan 21 2017 Woman March on Washington. That march was one day after the end of an 8-year administration of the worst ever president of the U.S.
The story said that the 2020 election might be the most important in the lifetimes of those attending the march. Perhaps the organizers should look up the definition of the word frivolous. Women and young girls outside the U.S. are suffering because of their gender, but not so much in the U.S.
Have not seen that so-called woman’s marches in the U.S. are fighting for equality for women around the world who TRULY have horrendous hardships and discrimination.
Such as the yearly mutilation of 3 millions girls in African and middle east nations. https://www.who.int/reproductivehealth/topics/fgm/prevalence/en/
Such as women in Iran having to abide to a very strict dress code. https://www.npr.org/2018/08/03/631784518/in-iran-protests-women-stand-up-lift-their-hijab-for-their-rights
Such as women in middle east countries limited by dress codes and sports participation.
And there are many more situations around the world were women are discriminated against.
You have to ask about the lack of credibility of 2020 U.S. women’s marches which owe their existence to the Jan 21 2017 Washington DC March. That one featured a speaker named Madonna who said:
“Welcome to the revolution of love, to the rebellion, to our refusal as women to accept this new age of tyranny, where not just women are in danger but all marginalized people, where being uniquely different right now might truly be considered a crime. It took this horrific moment of darkness to wake us the f— up.”
“To our detractors that insist that this march will never add up to anything, f— you.”
“Yes, I am angry. Yes, I am outraged. Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.” “We are far from the end and it is the start of a revolution to fight for the right to be free and equal.”
Madonna was heard by an estimated 500,000 people in DC as well as on LIVE CNN and MSNBC speaking her absolute nonsense, obscenities and making a threat to the U.S. president’s residence for which the secret protection people probably interrogated her.
Unless women and people participating in the Jan 2020 marches specifically outline discrimination and violence of women outside the U.S. in other nations and WHAT they will do about it, they are are misguided and wasting time.
Hmm. Still not getting it? Every single one of those “sources” bred is quoting are new world order agenda propaganda machines. If you get anything from them besides a laugh you are extremely naive and headed for destruction.
That’s why my two sources of information are Pravda and this sunshine blog; which makes me an exemplary, non-partisan, pragmatic, middle-of-the-road, moderate, centrist, non-aligned, well informed American voter. Stay tuned…tic, tock, tic, tock, tic, tock, 294 days, tic, tock, tic, tock, tic, tock, meeeeeeoooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww…
A bunch of homosexuals, communists, atheists, druggies don’t like the current regime in Iran.
Who cares.
I don’t give a damn what the dress code is in Iran, Bred.
