Maybe it's just me, but have you noticed since the elections we now suddenly hear / read next to nothing about the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and/or the Israel-Hamas conflict? Before the elections it seemed like this was all we heard about in the daily news; the top 4-5 headline news stories were what was going on in Ukraine and/or Israel. Today, we're lucky to find even a single story on the front page of any news source about either of those things.

I really wonder what the MSM views are on how these conflicts might influence the elections. Clearly there was something to this, else we'd still be seeing endless stories about Ukraine and Israel. The fact that this reporting has all but stopped is interesting. I mean, there's still 'some' reporting on the conflicts, but nowhere near the coverage they were getting pre-election. Makes me wonder if the logic was to air these stories trying to convince people that, in order to continue funding these conflicts, people needed to vote for Harris. Or...was this just some form of grand illusion attempting to obfuscate and distract voters into not seeing what was really at stake here at home in North America?

The recent election wasn't only an election for president of the United States, it was also largely a referendum on propaganda by the MSM.

This is encouraging!

I agree the shift in the news is awesome. There are still a few out there running their lips but overall it feels like they are being a little more accountable on just reporting the news not their feelings about.

The news has been overtaken by the government's lack of telling the public what all those drones are doing/looking for. Social media is filled with people who zoom in on a star and think they're looking at an extraterrestrial space craft, or people seeing a red sky at dusk and wondering what the hobgoblin is going on. Hell I've barely heard anything about Trump.

There were a lot of people who saw through the manipulation not only of the MSM but also Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media.

There were folks who suspected it and now they know for sure they were lied to.

The only ones left are the Liberals who keep screaming it's not fair because they no longer have control of the narrative.

I'm especially enjoying watching CNN and MSNBC circle the drain and ABC getting hit for 15 million.

I would hazard a guess and say that before the election money and aid sent to Ukraine was a virtue signal to obfuscate the kick back grift.

Now the election is lost the grift is being conducted on the down low and being wrapped up.

Ignore the news, sanitise Hinch and all his views.

I noticed that all the news propaganda about the wars ended quickly after Trump won. The Democrats seem to be war mongers and when they lost the election they and the media under their vulture wings seemed to stop spreading fear and Drama so much. They are trying to lick their wounds and the media is being very quiet since they were bashing the Repulicans so much while Biden was in the White house. I am a firm believer that the news should report news, not political propaganda and fear mongering to the American people. I hope the Republicans can fix this, they did some of it but way less than the Democrats did over the last ten years.

It's not just you. The way the DNC constantly assured the voters that Trump would absolutely cause WWIII to break out was a huge part of their failed campaign.

They seem to have forgotten how Trump proved them wrong.

The voters noticed how zero efferot was ever made under Biden to negotiate for peace in any way. They say billions being sent to Ukraine that was accomplishing nothing, while Zylensky's wife went on expensive Europian shopping trips.
The voters noticed how Biden turned his back on Israel and threatened them with sanctions if they didn't do his bidding.

The MSM news was all about free campaign propaganda and it didn't work. Now they've doubled down on mostly non-issue stories as the main story so nobady will bother to seek out what's going on behind the scenes.

There's a lot they don't want us to be focusing on; Biden's granting more $$ for student loan forgiveness, the Hunter pardon amoong others -and the thousands of other commuted sentences.More money for Ukraine, more facts coming out about the Biden family cabal, Biden's mental incompitance-all of these thinks need a great deal of deflection while Biden continues his scorched earth agenda in the few days he has left to do as much damage as possible.

My outlets are weird, we're a Fox News Household and they've been discussing domestic issues on the channels my FIL tunes in to. I have my sources, mainly boring stuff but there is a marked decrease in International News on almost all of them unless you go hunting for updates specifically.

X has even tweaked their algorithm and I had to check in with my State Representatives just to see what was going on, it's all over the place really...I suppose we're gonna have to be more careful about where we get our news from.

I rarely look at one side of the issue and I'm all over the map sometimes but I think it has to do with preparations for an America First type of programming, focusing on our communities and National Well Being kind of thing.

I'm just glad the election fervor has died down...I was getting sensory bombardment and it was very overwhelming.

Wishful thinking. Anti Trump and anti Musk propaganda is on the menu. CIA and pentagon poured millions into training journalists and making sure MSM dances to their tune, also in Europe. They might have taken a little step back, but its not over.

I can confirm that here in New Zealand, using NZ News media, that both conflicts are continuing and are being reported on almost daily.

Perhaps what is happening is that in the USA, news media is assumed by media company management to be a type of entertainment, and so people in the US don't get news on subjects deemed to be 'fatigued' demographically.

The situation clearly shows that most US 'news' media have no concern with accurate and truthful reportage.

I have long held that US news media only have, on average, about 1/2 an hours 'real' news reports per day, and yet they somehow seem to spin it out with 24 hours of opinion and infotainment marketing.

This means that the US public end up being blasted only with the propaganda compliant with the opinions of the directors of US news media companies, and so the US public stays mostly uninformed and clueless.

And with the extreme partisanship of US news media organizations, it is no wonder that US citizens make such repeated poor choices as their countries 'leadership', despite having vast population of qualified, experienced and capable candidates to choose from.

Do other countries have numerous movie and 'reality TV' stars as their 'leadership'? Think about it.

For over sixty years, the Smith–Mundt Act prohibited the U.S. Department of State and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) from disseminating government-produced programming within the United States over fears that these agencies would “propagandize” the American people.



Public Law 80-402, 62 Stat. 6

Passed Congress/Enrolled Bill: Jan 27, 1948.

Eightieth Congress of the United States of America

At the Second Session

H. R. 3342

www.usagm.gov...



However, in 2013, Congress with a majority of democrats within the O'buma Regime reversed the domestic dissemination ban, making it legal, to use propaganda on the American people.

Literally, the government made it legal to lie, especially using news media outlets. Hence why the msm has done such.

The lies and propaganda, will not cease, until the Smith Mundt Act is restored.

It comes back to the real people and what they believe or not, while some still trust what the media tells them, the majority knows crap for what it is, they know lies for what they are.

The major knew media outlets has been ousted and taken over by real life podcast, younger generations no longer have time or want to sit down and watch media news on TV.

People are always on the go, soo they just switch to their phone to listen to their favorite casters.

The liberal media is dead, plain and simple.

Agreed.

Problem still exists, low information individuals/people are prone to believe the lie, because they're not being told the truth. An example, people who still wear masks...

Have they not been told?
Masks don't do jack squat, to stop viruses.

It's a spatter guard at best, a sneeze catch at worst.

I don't even look at or acknowledge people with masks on any more, absolutely disdain them for their self induced ignorance.

They obviously can't handle the truth.

It's my opinion, based on personal experience these last few years.

Partly true BUT

During " Smith–Mund ", they were using a slower boil propaganda system with the U.S. Media and prime time TV, and they were using ultra-extreme tactics overseas as a "comparison" to make People "Think" the propaganda was away from them. 😀

It was brilliant actually. 🥥
