    Looks like if Trump is listening to a Fox host on Iran right now, it isn’t Carlson.

    Anyway, if you want to read something that actually involved a little bit of research into PragerU and isn’t just a glowing profile from the same people who brought you tHe iNtELLeCtUaL DaRk WeB, I wrote this:

    This NYT profile of PragerU is ... not good

    How could ⁦⁩ write this long, deep account of Prager U without talking to the leading scholar of it, ⁦⁩?

    It is extraordinary that the NYT allows a President and Secretary of State who lie with reckless abandon to write their headlines for them with absolutely zero evidence.

    and there's the ny times, again

    Ed Henry co-hosting a show with the pro-war crimes guy (, via ) is always illustrative of the supposed network division between "news" and "opinion."

    Fox 'straight news' host Ed Henry dismisses concerns about Iranian counterattacks and the possibility of war with "Iran is on defense right now and may be cornered and that may be a very good thing for the world"

    This is why it was so reckless for news outlets to uncritically cite the administration’s justification in their headlines:

    1. I’ve had a chance to check in with sources, including two US officials who had intelligence briefings after the strike on Suleimani. Here is what I’ve learned. According to them, the evidence suggesting there was to be an imminent attack on American targets is “razor thin”.

    Despite all the lies, cable news pundits assert no reason to doubt what the Trump administration says about Iran

    TV pundits assert no reason to doubt what Trump says about Iran
    Not only has Trump lied; not only has the Trump administration lied; but multiple wars have been sold to the American people based on lies -- including Iraq and Afghanistan.

    We sort through all...10...times Trump said Obama would attack Iran to win re-election: Trump: "Some time prior to the election they'll be some kind of war started." Hannity: "That would be the single most chilling abuse of power in American history."
