I Criticized BLM. Then I Was Fired.

People gather around the Robert E. Lee statue on Monument Avenue in Richmond, Virginia, in June 2020, amid continued protests over the death of George Floyd.

Until recently, I was a director of data science at Thomson Reuters, one of the biggest news organizations in the world. It was my job, among other things, to sift through reams of numbers and figure out what they meant.

About a year ago, I stumbled on a really big story. It was about black Americans being gunned down across the country and the ways in which we report on that violence. We had been talking nonstop about race and police brutality, and I thought: This is a story that could save lives. This is a story that has to be told.

But when I shared the story with my coworkers, my boss chastised me, telling me expressing this opinion could limit my ability to take on leadership roles within the company. Then I was maligned by my colleagues. And then I was fired.

This is the story Reuters didn’t want to tell.

This is scary shit proving the news is more fake than we can imagine.

The Inhumanity of Compulsory Virus Control

In the last week, some of the top spokespeople for lockdowns, and all that is associated with that policy of pathogenic control, have come out to defend them plus threatening more now that we are seeing seasonal increases in cases.

It’s almost as if they have learned nothing.

They certainly haven’t admitted error – Bill Gates will never do that – despite all the carnage all around us. It includes not only destroyed businesses and educational losses but also inflation, goods shortages, weakened financial markets, broken supply chains, social and political conflict, and countless broken lives.

All of this traces to lockdowns, a policy advocated and enforced by specific people, mostly powerful and highly paid intellectuals, and amplified by the media.

How Media Transferred Conservatives From Good Citizens To Racist Thugs

Believe it or not, there was a time when being a conservative in Canada was fair and reasonable. In fact, it wasn’t that long ago. It was during the twelve year period that Conservative Stephen Harper served as prime minister that a line of demarcation appeared.

Toward the end of Harper’s tenure, Canadian media began to play the “race card.” One catalyst involved a new arrival to Canada who demanded to cover her face during her citizenship ceremony. General society objected to the idea of Islamic Law overruling 145 years of Canadian tradition. PM Stephen Harper agreed.

An association between conservative politics and “Islamophobia” was born. To this day, mainstream media has clung to the concept. As years passed, a notion of conservatives as racist– both the party and the public– has solidified into a common social perception.

One in eight Canadians believe vaccine myths, survey reveals

The most widely held myths, according to the poll, are that “researchers rushed the development of the COVID-19 vaccine, so its effectiveness and safety cannot be trusted” and that “the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine are dangerous.”

CNN Terrified of Free Speech on Twitter: Would You Go to Elon’s Dirty Party?

With Elon Musk’s deal to acquire Twitter finalized on Monday, CNN Newsroom was left shaken by the idea that free speech would be allowed on the platform that they’ve used to gaslight the public and boost their egos. This fear ranged from concerns about former President Trump’s return to analogies suggesting Twitter would become a debauched and dirty party that will chase away users.

Press group won’t investigate fake news by left-wing journalist

The Chair of the National News Media Council is refusing to investigate claims that a left-wing journalist misrepresented her arrest by RCMP officers during an anti-pipeline protest in subsequent reporting.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Chair John Fraser claimed that the matter was outside of the organization’s mandate – despite that mandate involving investigating breaches of journalistic standards among members.

The Media and Big Tech Covered Up These Stories. Where’s the Reckoning?

The New York Post broke the laptop story near the end of the presidential campaign. The story was explosive, of course, and the media pile-on intense. Some piled on Hunter Biden, but more piled on the Post. They questioned the authenticity of the hard drive and the timing and accuracy of the story.

Twitter blocked the story from even being shared. Facebook hid the story. Politico said it might be “Russian disinformation.” A Washington Post column called it “laughably weak.” A New York Times piece labeled it “farcical retread of the Russian hack-and-leak operation that helped torpedo Hillary Clinton’s presidential aspirations.” The story was mocked and buried.

Now, a year and a half later, the Post and Times admit that major parts of the story were accurate.

Also, there are two laptops involved. The Russians have one.

Radical Wokism: Remaking Canada As A Non-Democratic Nation

When moving toward a destination, travellers look for signs along the way. So it should be when contemplating the political future of Canada. How little this practice occurs within Canadian media is nothing short of a national travesty.

Myriad signs exist in terms of our country’s transition away from democratic governance. Mainstream media are so successful in obscuring the signs, one would believe they are being paid by government to do so.

The Media’s Hunter Biden Embarrassment Continues

Now the embarrassment has spread, as it should. Here’s the headline in the New York Post. It was, recall, the New York Post that published the original scoop on the laptop and the e-mails it contained way back there in October of 2020 — a scoop that was silenced by Big Tech and ignored by the mainstream media when they weren’t dismissing it as “Russian disinformation.”

CBS News, Weather Channel Strike Climate Content Alliance

CBS News hasn’t put the same kind of spotlight on weather as many of its rivals, but that may all be about to change as quickly as a shift in the wind.

The Paramount Global news unit is teaming with The Weather Channel to bring more reporting on weather and climate to CBS News programs including “CBS Mornings” and “The CBS Evening News,” as well as the division’s streaming efforts. Some of the most popular Weather Channel personalities — including Stephanie Abrams, Jim Cantore and Mike Bettes — are likely to turn up on CBS News programs in reports that originate from Weather Channel’s Atlanta headquarters. CBS viewers will also get to see augmented-reality technology that helps depict what a specific community might look like while in the midst of a tornado, snow or rain. The two media outlets will also team up to cover weather and climate news in deeper fashion as circumstances warrant.
