Absolutely Nothing Today In The Washington Post On IRS Hearings
 
Absolutely Nothing Today In The Washington Post On IRS Hearings

And you all want to call this a credible news agency. It's nothing more than a propaganda rag.:mad:

What do you want, 2 inch headline screaming "HFS Batman!! The sky is falling!!!" perhaps?

Fox News Suffers Worst Ratings In Thirteen Years And That's Not Their Big Problem

Fox News has fallen and it can't get up.

Picture says it all. Priceless. :D

bobabode 06-24-2014 12:21 PM

A Fox-bot will be along directly to claim that it's all a lefty cointelpro false flag operation designed to steal their precious bodily fluids. :rolleyes:

"Apparently Fox is not satisfied with alienating African-Americans and Latinos and women and youth and the middle-class and workers and, of course, most of America's liberals and moderates. Now they are aiming to narrow their appeal even more by driving away the last remnants of their audience - senior citizens. Keep up the good work, Fox." :cool:

From the above link.

Opinion post on the web, I'm referring to the news paper ie: printed circulation.

So what? You didn't answer my question. Once again, is there any news worth reporting?

Love the writing:

The Post had 3 different articles on the IRS scandal yesterday. I tire pretty quickly of the Wingnuts somehow believing that the national media isn't covering such stories. They're probably getting more attention than they deserve.

Rajoo 06-24-2014 12:54 PM

Just one individual performing a function.

I would not call it a propaganda rag, but the IRS hearings needs exposure.

The IRS response to the inquiry is a disgrace. The IRS has really crashed. :D

Whaca talking about?

"The Post is generally regarded as one of the leading daily American newspapers,[14] along with The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal. The Post has distinguished itself through its political reporting on the workings of the White House, Congress, and other aspects of the U.S. government."

From you know where. :)

Let's punish IRS by refusing to file our tax returns. That should bring them down to their knees. :D

Actually filing is superflous...the IRS already knows since everything is sent to them anyway. The filing is for the Romney types who like to itemize everything....

well most of us homeownes too I guess;)

I am kidding. If there is something amiss or hidden by the IRS, it is bound to come out sooner or later. Washington is not Las Vegas. How do you hide inappropriate/illegal acts within an organization as large as the IRS?

In the interim though, the right wing reactionaries has to play to their audience and this includes beating up on the messenger. Two groups you don't want to piss of are the cops (FBI/CIA) and media (WaPo). They both dig for a living.

Yes

plus if we had did not have to file all the H&R Block and other assorted tax preparers would be out of business!

That doesn't matter.

Nothing can satisfy them.

They remind me of the character "Ringo" in the movie "Tombstone."

Quote:

Wyatt Earp: What makes a man like Ringo, Doc? What makes him do the things he does?

Doc Holliday: A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it.

Wyatt Earp: What does he need?

Doc Holliday: Revenge.

Wyatt Earp: For what?

Doc Holliday: Bein' born.

As we speak, the PBS Newshour has an entire segment on the IRS issue.

73% of Americans want Congress to get to the bottom of the IRS Scandle.

As soon as the democrats loose all power midterms and 2016 the hammer's coming down on this administration illegal activities.

The conspicuous absence of a link to your alleged source is noted.

High school drop out turned legal eagle? Give me a break. You sound like a two year old repeating stuff you heard without a clue of what it means. When some one asks you a question, you can never respond. Why is that? Or are you not being compensated for answering questions.

Another neat youtube link. Ten scariest commencials.

They do get scarier as the countdown progresses....

Nothing to do with the thread except I found it when looking at Tom's link.

The credibility of this thread rests in part on accepting the premise the 427 has pored through the entire edition of the Wapo to confirm the absence of said coverage.

Dondilion 06-24-2014 11:12 PM

Benghazi is BS but this IRS business looks like a real scandal.

The behavior of the IRS with their "computer failures" indicates that the
charges have validity.

Of course the premise is bullcrap, imho, in it's restriction that on this day in the print edition there is nothing reported. Hell, there are several active columns and op eds regarding this whiffed up story online.
It's also worth noting that today we have important primaries in several states being covered not to mention the balls to the walls coverage of Iraq but I'll look.

It's not content, it's disruption and post count. Stay tuned for he is shilling.
