Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

Re: Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

The NYTimes has decided it is finally time to take down the true enemy of the people...a man who has done nothing but destroy people's lives and bring shame upon the world!

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ronan Farrow has uncovered wrongdoing and is perhaps the most famous investigative journalist in America. But our media columnist <a href="https://twitter.com/benyt?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@benyt</a> looked deeper, and what he found revealed the weakness of what may be called resistance journalism. <a href="https://t.co/TCUxwXNImr">https://t.co/TCUxwXNImr</a></p>— The New York Times (@nytimes) <a href="https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1262172315397378050?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Needless to say like most things the Times does these days this did not go over well.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Who watches over 90,000 Americans die from a pandemic and decides yeah, we should do a hit piece on Ronan Farrow?</p>— Andrea R MD (@AndreaR9Md) <a href="https://twitter.com/AndreaR9Md/status/1262435302985080832?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Imagine thinking you could take a shot at Ronan Farrow using exactly the kind of slipshod tactics and vague aspersions Ronan Farrow has a Pulitzer for uncovering and dismantling. <a href="https://t.co/e7iLKypuNC">https://t.co/e7iLKypuNC</a></p>— Bess Kalb (@bessbell) <a href="https://twitter.com/bessbell/status/1262449922470625280?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Both the NYT and the NY Review of Books print hit pieces on Ronan Farrow on the same day. It's almost as if there was a coordinated effort to... oh, why bother? <a href="https://t.co/sUDjPB8irE">pic.twitter.com/sUDjPB8irE</a></p>— Prof Zenkus (@anthonyzenkus) <a href="https://twitter.com/anthonyzenkus/status/1262454779885817857?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The consensus seems to be that either Farrow is coming out with a story that affects the Times soon OR he has something on Biden coming out soon. (that is what the Bernie Supporters are pushing) I think they just dont like that he gets credit for doing the stuff they used to be famous for. Now they employ second rate hacks like Maggie Haberman who make more factual errors (and were in bed with the Trump administration to the point of ****ed near slandering Hillary) ten times worse than what Farrow is accused of.

Speaking of Maggie The Compromised...she promoted the article:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">“if reporters swim ably along with the tides of social media and produce damaging reporting about public figures most disliked by the loudest voices, the old rules of fairness and open-mindedness can seem more like impediments than essential” tenets <a href="https://t.co/0WLPRBB0z7">https://t.co/0WLPRBB0z7</a></p>— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) <a href="https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/1262396791212904449?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 18, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Take a few minutes and read the replies...man people (especially Liberals) love to tell her how big of a hypocrite she and the Times are :D

edit: Hah someone posted a picture in response to Maggie of Maggie with Trump in the Oval Office and him giving the thumbs up. Man sometimes Twitter is fun :)

The border wall between the US and Mexico: now with EXTRA protection.
There's a big cat sanctuary just north of Ft. Worth. Not a zoo, but they offered tours by appointment only on Saturdays. According to them back in the 2004 timeframe, there were *1500* big cats just in the state of Texas that needed homes. Their explanation was that there were a lot of ranchers who thought it would be cool to have a tiger or lion prowling their property, but then got tired of not being able to roam the property themselves (basically prisoners in their own houses - living inside the fence). They did not comment on the perceived size of said ranchers' genitalia.

LOL. This is so wonderfully dumb it hurts.

Lori Loughlin gets off with a $150,000 fine.

Oh, to be wealthy.

Maybe the judge took into account that she paid <s>$500,000</s>$650,000 TO GET HER KIDS ADMITTED TO USC.

Prohibition against excessive fines and all.
Cost of doing business.

It’s about a 99% chance that if you’re trending top 5 on Twitter as a regular civilian it’s not good. Either you’ve been murdered, or in this case, you done messed up A-A-Ron.

Re: Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

While what she did was ridiculous...I think this is going a bit far.
 
Re: Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

I don't like that he tried to get her dog to come to him with treats. There are messed up people out there that poison dogs they are disgruntled about all the time. She is still clearly ridiculous, but he went about this the wrong way as well. Nothing worth calling the cops and trying to get him arrested, though.
 
Re: Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

People who won’t leash dogs in a park where they need to be leashed should be beaten. It’s breaking the law and it’s putting other people and dogs in potentially bad situations.

She wouldn’t have had to choke/yank the dog if he’d been leashed, like the law says.

I quit going to any parks with my dogs years ago because of all the stupid dog owners.
 
Re: Nice Planet 18: Welcome To Our Planet. Sorry It's So Messed Up.

Look this girl obviously has serious issues and I am not sad she got outted (hence me posting the link) but I do not condone the crap that happens after the fact sometimes. I am not sure she should be put on leave from work because some keyboard warriors figured out where she worked. (I dont know if it went that way this time but the Twitter Mob does stuff like that a lot) Stuff like that makes the mob no better than the Karens.

And lest we forget, all we have is the video being shot by the guy who was wronged. While I have no reason to believe he was lying, that is hardly concrete proof. We dont know what happened before except what he chose to tell us.
