Companies like IBM used to get crucified by the public when they'd do stuff like this. They'd feel shame, and go into hiding for a few years. Exxon, same thing. Now? They just call up Michael Bloomberg and Jeff Bezos and Jeff Zucker and makes sure the story gets killed, like Bezo's cheating on his wife for example.
Did your software detect the obvious fake Russia hoax we now know was fabricated bullshit? Because it was freaking obvious? Did all available information, like the Podesta Emails get analyzed? Because if not, it was an exercise in media friendly fiction.
The biggest factor to Hillary Clinton losing the most winnable election in history I think is all the lies, and when CNN got caught lying for her when half the DNC convention walked out, and CNN tried to pretend it wasn't happening, despite it being all over social media with video and picture evidence. Oh, and she would just be President right now if she had removed her head from her huge ass and made Sanders her VP pick. No question.
The Most Depressing Thing, Walking Into This Blind:
I can't trust a word of this. Yet. I have to do my own research thanks to how the media treated Edward Snowden. It's like everyone forgot when the Media went after him hard because their corporate masters told them too, and all we got was how he was the devil incarnate for weeks. And yeah, that all turned out to be lies.
So yeah, unfortunately government talking points are suspect until investigated. Looks like I have a lot of research to do.
The Media doesn't have a mirror they hold up. They don't look at themselves, or perceive their own actions. They just change the subject for their corporate masters, right on schedule.
At the same time, I totally understand why folks think they can do this crap and get away with it. They've watched Adam Schiff do it with no consequences for four years.
I'm worried about Google's political censorship they are doing on YouTube and their search engine right now to folks that might vote a way they don't like.
One of the neat perspectives you get when you give up on most American news, and you've moved on to Canadian and UK news and Entertainment is you get to see those places pick on us for having fake news, and manipulated tv shows. You get the truth through their eyes. You get hear them tell you the fake dossier is fake, and our media is insane. You get to watch their comedy shows, were we are the target. You get to see the truth in how they do that comedy about us.
So, I'm not remotely surprised that smaller countries are trying to copy our model. We showed them it's ok to bullshit your entire population rather than admit nobody likes hillary clinton.
