Not bad at all. From my point of view in the old days you were going to conspiracy sites to hear I know a guy who knows a guy, hearsay stuff. These days it feels like conspiracy theorists are crawling of out the woodwork. Re-posting videos, they are turning into news sites in their own way with some sarcastic commentary on top. The old saying pics or it did not happen. Well, they are referencing their links bringing their side of the receipts. Quoting news sites and professionals. I was in my way comparing this to the generalized subject matter of some other news sites.  It's not hard to see the different focus and the stories that are not covered.

 

One should not overlook, conspiracy theorists have been called out for this type of bullshit that is often found on mainstream news sites. What would that be, in two words 'unnamed sources'? So mainstream media gets to shovel their horse shit all they want while they act like they're the moral authority on the news. If you're using 'unnamed sources' you might as well be fictional story writers. To claim anything else, you don't have the receipts and all you have got is hearsay. The same people that write it can sometimes be the same people who crucify conspiracy theorists for doing such a thing.

 

Examine this basic fictional story below cause unless I am missing something it is just tabloid hearsay news using unnamed sources to create gossip or accurately report the gossip. To me, that is just gutter fictional writing. It's hard to say if I don't often cross that line myself but I do try to carry a disclaimer on this site that you will find in the banner and about page.

Examine this basic fictional story cause unless I am missing something again. I think they should carry the same warning above their headline that some tabloid magazines carry.

 

24 Feb 2023 - Spy hive uncovered by ASIO reportedly linked to Russia

A hive of foreign spies busted by Australia's intelligence agency in the past year was reportedly linked to Russia.

Nine newspapers on Friday cited unnamed sources as saying the spies posed as diplomats and had been operating for more than 18 months in multiple locations, including the Russian embassy in Canberra.

The unnamed sources besides dumping on Russia are providing operational information like, "spies posed as diplomats and had been operating for more than 18 months in multiple locations, including the Russian embassy in Canberra."

 

Require a disclaimer on tabloid journalism

Tabloid newspapers such as The Sun, Daily Star, The Mirror, Daily Express and the Daily Mail, etc are directly and negatively influencing public opinion on various issues.

A warning needs to be added to the front page of such tabloid newspapers stating "Notice: This is a TABLOID NEWSPAPER and contains SENSATIONALIST and EXTREMIST views. It should be treated as a work of FICTION."

Dave Guru Graham has some legal issues currently in front of the courts. He is hoping/is running in the NSW election in March 2023. I am posting a video of his as an example of where you might pick hearsay vs where he is posting a credible link to what he is referencing while aligning it with what some would call a conspiracy theory agenda. How much of that conspiracy theory agenda holds up is up to you. Much like mainstream media, radicalization has many forms the above mainstream story can help to cause Russian phobia.
