...um....let me see.....ahhhhh...no!

No

That's been business as usual out of Washington for at least the last 70 years. Granted, it's become much worse since 2001, but the Orange Moron is hardly the first president to be playing both sides like that.

Yeap, brainwashing. But not mine!

Our local news station (owned by conservative Sinclair Broadcast Group) really went all out to spin it all in Trump's favor. The only negative thing they reported was Trump saying "I'm fucked", but they buried it so far into the story that it seemed as if Trump was being persecuted, not blurting consciousness of guilt. Everything else was "no collusion", clips of Barr's intro, Trump declaring "no collusion", his "Game Over" tweet, and "now Democrats will" bla bla bla.

The local Sinclair station has had slanted stories before, but this was go-for-broke idiocy. Most of it was tape from out of state, but they even added on "local" voices to say they should "get past" this and "stop being so divided" and "just govern", yada yada yada. As if Trump has nothing to do with the division and the gears of government grinding into dysfunction.

I wonder how many people know or care that their local news stations are being bought up for propaganda purposes?

From wikipedia:

"Sinclair has faced scrutiny from some media critics, as well as some of its station employees, for the conservative slant of their stations' news reporting and other programming decisions, and how the company's rapid growth has aided the airing of content that supports these views.[2][3][4] Sinclair has also faced criticism over business practices that circumvent concentration of media ownership regulations, particularly the use of local marketing agreements, accusations that the company had been currying favor with the Trump administration in order to loosen these rules[5] and about its management lacking diversity and being totally controlled by a single family.[6] Critics including former news anchor Dan Rather have described Sinclair's practices as being "an assault on our democracy" by disseminating what they perceive to be Orwellian-like propaganda to its local stations.[7][8][9]"
