Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.
Yet Another Reason Not to Trust the Mainstream Media
The night shooting footage in this segment aired by ABC yesterday is not of an attack on Kurdish civilians, it is from a commercial public firing range in Knob Creek, Kentucky that holds three-day long gun shows with night shoots every April and October. The (known) lying starts at 11 seconds.
But be that as it may, I don't believe anything the "mainstream" media claims these days. They don't seem to even care any longer that most people know they are lying and just making up crap.
LOL yeah ABC pulled it after they discovered they'd been cold busted and the owner of the footage submitted a Copyright claim to Youtube. Fortunately someone grabbed the stolen footage ABC posted and did a side-by-side comparison to the original private footage from 2010.
I don't trust any of them until it's proven fact. All add and omit what ever makes their cause sound good. Some people are gullible and believe some outrageous stuff though.
You would think that people with a bonafide intention of having a career in reporting wouldn't sell out so easily for a paycheck that requires that they lie and fabricate what they are "reporting". Becoming the shadiest of used car salesmen would be a BIG step up in their stature with the thinking public. IMHO.
Personally, I couldn't look myself in the mirror holding down a job like that. I don't care what the pay is.
We in the Houston area are used to this concept. There is a library of previous flood/hurricane clips the media drags out and run whenever there is a hurricane in the area. And in general, intentional mislabeling in sales of goods is a huge problem both in media and in actual practice, but creating billions in profits, that it is not difficult to disbelieve what you see and wonder if there is anyone left who can be trusted.
News stations and shows over the years have become more and more partisan. What happened to journalist integrity? I remember in journalism classes it was stressed about reporting facts and both sides of the story, opinions were for the opinion column. It's crazy how much has changed in just a short time.
I enjoy getting my news from Philip DeFranco show on youtube, at least he specifies when he's giving his opinion, otherwise he presents a pretty even sided show IMO https://www.youtube.com/user/sxephil/featured
