I’m aware of the arthur reference, but it’s really important to realize these aren’t off-the-cuff lies.
This is a planned, coordinated effort that has been going on since before I was even alive; and the journalistspropagandists have been very carefully selected- and have indeed worked very hard to get the job of fucking over americans.
Also, weathermen aren’t necessarily lying. lying requires an intent to deceive, and most times, weathermen don’t mean to deceive, they’re just factually wrong. (FWIW, predicting the weather more than a few days in advance is a crap shoot.)
the precipitous fall of print media over the past couple decades is something that would one day be written about in the history books if they weren’t also full of shit.
But they’re not lying. It’s pretty reasonable to believe both that his parents were working class, and that him becoming a class traitor on such a level does make him a hero in capitalist eyes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The implication is that Brian Thompson should be/is a hero to working class people.
he’s not.
he’s an asshole who made millions fucking over people just trying to get medical care. many of whom have died as a result of his fucking them over, and that is especially true of those who actually work for a living- which he has not in a very long time.
i don’t think it’s lying, necessarily. i suspect that it’s embellishing, and it’s inarguably providing an incomplete, intentionally flattering picture.
you really think someone would do that? just go on a once-respected publication and tell lies?
Keep in mind it’s an opinion piece, not official reporting
“Just”… ? no. There’s a certain vetting process that makes sure they tell the right lies.
Not sure if you didn’t get it, but that’s a reference to an Arnold meme.

There are two jobs where you can go on national TV, lie and not get fired. President and weather man.
Fox News personality.
Plot twist: the Fox News weatherman tells the truth
The one thing their audience are experts in is what’s going on directly outside their window
It’s snowing! Therefore climate change is a demoncrap hoax!
Press secretary, too.

Press secretare is just a modern herald or crier, they are the voice of the king.
As for the weatherman bit, your right, but thats also the joke…

Decentralized media like fedi is the only hope of the working class.
Owners either own or control everything else government, fake news, TV, Hollywood, publishing, corporate socials.
Wikipedia will be deposed in time, they are already mawing at the foundation
Thank you for your service…
More people need to understand how media whores for the regime
