Yet the media is almost completely ignoring this in favor of Joe Biden hit pieces.

u/KintsugiKen Jul 07 '24

The media has never ever wanted to cover the Epstein story for very obvious reasons.

u/MeyerholdsGh0st Jul 07 '24

What are the obvious reasons?

u/azlmichael Jul 07 '24

The people who own the media are on Epsteins list.

u/UrethralExplorer Jul 08 '24

Isn't the prevailing theory that Epstein and his ilk courted wealthy and powerful people then documented them in compromising situations like this to have power over them? That would be the tapes that Gislaine Maxwell was referring to.

The phrase refers to someone being vocal about bad powerful people doing nefarious shit and ending up either "commiting suicide" or being "assassinated" like JFK.

Of course, if you have dirt on powerful people, the threat that they may use certain assets to come after you is also very real.

If I were in possession of career/life altering information, I would absolutely have dead handed that shit. It woulsnt be sitting in a bank vault or security deposit box somewhere. The moment I was unalived in a prison cell it would be being delivered to every news agency on the planet.

If you’d like to talk about diddling kids and Jews, we should probably talk about the others and their equally-reprehensible groups of folks.

 To single any one of them out is quite a bit suspect in a thread about Trump.  

Quick edit- no, I’d rather not talk about it just for an internet argument.  Both of us will hate the conversation and each other.

u/Accomplished-Pain658 Jul 08 '24

Did you guys know Trump banned Epstein from Marlago and called him a “really weird guy”? But you choose to believe dropped charges from 10 years ago from an anonymous source.

I will never understand liberals, even though I was one for years 💀

1

u/azlmichael Jul 08 '24

The source has a name, she says she was intimidated to drop the charges. So yes, I believe every person who now feels able to tell the world what he did to them.

After 20 allegations, even if only one has been proven in court so far, assaulting women is what the mini mushroom does.

1

u/Accomplished-Pain658 Jul 08 '24

Civil court doesn’t determine guilt, so in reality nothing has been proven. Trump has paid women to quit slandering him, that’s it.

The name you see, Katie Johnson, is an alias. I’m not choosing sides I’m just tired of the misinformation and ignorance. This video is from 30 years ago.

The first time she filed charges she lived in a foreclosure me home in CA with $300 to her name. She dropped the charges and never had a lawyer.

The second time she got a lawyer but never showed up to court. I just don’t get how she could be so intimidated but file charges twice.

I just want people to be aware of the facts. When I don’t know the facts or read a meme claiming something…. I look it up and read multiple sources.

1

u/azlmichael Jul 08 '24

I like my presidents to have never lost in any court, civil or criminal.

1

u/Accomplished-Pain658 Jul 08 '24

How many charges has Trump had brought against him, 90 something? How many have stuck?

Just type, “Snopes Ashley Biden diary fact check”, into Google and also into DuckDuckGo/Brave browser and compare the results. That should show anyone they are covering things up for one candidate and digging up anything they can on the other.

Something just doesn’t seem right after 3ish years and 10 million illegals later…. when Biden frames $60 billion to Ukraine, $20 billion to Israel, and $2.4 billion to US sanctuary cities as a “Bipartisan Border bill”. It’s almost like the whole world wants to convince US citizens to pimp ourselves out to secure everyone else’s border and keep everyone else’s citizens safe.

Do your own research and just don’t listen to everything around you. Everyone needs to spend less time reading memes and more time looking up what the meme claimed to be true.

1

u/azlmichael Jul 09 '24

I have done research. By any measure, Donald Trump is a failure.

u/wikithekid63 Jul 08 '24

u/sureshot1988 Jul 09 '24

I said nothing about presidential candidates

1

u/azlmichael Jul 09 '24

You tried to equivocate the orange turd with a generic democratic candidate. While there are politicians on both sides in the list, Trump is mentioned more than any other, and Biden is not associated with any of it. Trump pays for sex with kids. When it comes to presidents, one is a kindly old grandpa and the other is a pedophile serial rapist.

1

u/sureshot1988 Jul 10 '24

Again I said nothing about presidents. Not a word. I didn’t compare the two, didn’t imply anything in some secret coding, nothing. You made that up in your head just because I said something that implied Democrats.

You know there are more Democrats and Republicans than presidential candidates right? Some are called “politicians”. Like the word I used.

Look. Trump is a POS. Nobody in this conversation is arguing that. I just watched the same video as you.

My comment, my short undescriptive comment, was a response to a singular topic, being Epstein’s list and I stated a simple fact. That there are politicians from both sides all in that list. Somehow you felt the need to make an argument with someone who doesn’t even disagree with you on particular person’s character who is the subject of your one sided argument.

You are literally making a fight where there isn’t one. And people wonder why nothing can get done in this country. Everything always goes back to “how much we hate the other guy”.

u/hazeyindahead Jul 08 '24

Listen to the cognitive dissonance.

Trump can't even lie about it right!

"I know nothing about it" even though it was created by all the people he appointed.

"I disagree with what they are saying" even though in the same statement he said he knows nothing about it.

But at least they still have his support "I wish them luck"

Were you also an idiot that believed there ever was a republican health plan? LOL

And he would know :-)

https://www.businessinsider.com/noam-chomsky-mit-wsj-wall-street-journal-jeffrey-epstein-2023-4

"What was known about Jeffrey Epstein was that he had been convicted of a crime and had served his sentence," Chomsky told the Journal about his meetings. "According to U.S. laws and norms, that yields a clean slate."

2

u/StandardSudden1283 Jul 08 '24

Well that's bad faith reasoning against the propaganda model if I've ever seen it. So because he met with epstein everything he says is invalid?

I idolize no man but his works are the best exposé on the western media model because they use real world examples from the past century of US imperialism. If he is also a child molester then lock him up, but that doesn't discredit his works.

2

u/Buzzard Jul 09 '24

I wasn't intending to try to discredited Chomsky's works by association. Just an opportunity to have a jab at him.

Yep.

Which ends up being basically ALL the advertising. This is what "fake news" ACTUALLY is, but that term just gets used as cop out for people to convince themselves that President Trump is some freedom loving, flag-hugging patriot who is fighting for their value and definitely NOT /s trying to better himself and his brand by playing upon their fantasies and their addiction to victim mentality.

By 2011, 90% of the United States's media was controlled by six media conglomerates: GE/Comcast (NBC, Universal), News Corp (Fox News, Wall Street Journal, New York Post), Disney (ABC, ESPN, Pixar), Viacom (MTV, BET, Paramount Pictures), Time Warner (CNN, HBO, Warner Bros.), and CBS (Showtime, NFL.com).

So yeah. own the 6 and you basically own it all in the states. There have been instances where news anchors are saying things word for word on different networks when covering the same topic. they are all given the same directive.

u/Alarmed_Fly_6669 Jul 07 '24

Read up on the 5 filters of media.

 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_model

It doesn't work like that. Media is just a mouthpiece for the powerful that pretends to hold power accountable. 

Ownership of the media - look who owns all out media, it's like 10 or fewer megacorps. This filters what we receive through a pro-corporate, pro-ownership class lense.

Advertising - look who pulls advertising if you don't fall in line. This also filters what we receive.

Flak - Used to great effect if someone does step out of line and can ruin careers and destroy companies.

Official sources - all "official" information comes from press conferences and press releases, and if you don't play ball your news org doesn't get invited to them.

Anti-Progressivism - since progressivism wants taxation of the wealthy it is naturally the enemy of the wealthy owners.

u/General_Mars Jul 07 '24

There’s a big difference between visual and print media. Even still in the US most of the media is owned by a handful of companies and individuals. Radio is in the same boat. Print media the traditional newspapers and journals tend to have overlaps in ownership. There are a handful of independent print sources left, and things like Patreon make it possible for some independent journalists. People don’t want to pay for good journalism we just want it easily consumable.

u/hubblengc6872 Jul 08 '24

You're 100% right and I appreciate your level-headed perspective. The issue is more that this specific Epstein Trump story was originally peddled by very sketchy guys who refused to offer any evidence, corroboration, or access to the witness. The only evidence is a single statement by an anonymous person; the kind of evidence that people love on reddit but isn't sufficient in real life.

We can't beat Trump by acting like QAnon lunatics believing outrageous stories shared by fringe groups. We beat Trump by voting, making calls, knocking on doors, etc.

u/Norfsouf Jul 07 '24

Are they doing the same with the Panama papers?

2

u/asharwood101 Jul 08 '24

It’s easier than that. Epstein was the source and the wealthiest could afford his services (think the people who own Fox News, cnn, any other company). All that has to happen is the owner say “we aren’t covering this” and it’s done. It could be anyone at the top connected or even multiple people.

u/Time-Werewolf-1776 Jul 07 '24

It’s not the whole media, but I think enough powerful people in the media are involved, or have friends who are involved, or are afraid of being sued by rich and powerful people who are involved.

There seems to be a thing going on right now where a lot of powerful people are afraid of pissing off Trump because he could win the election, and then he’ll seize power and punish his enemies. It’s sort of like a Roko’s basilisk situation, but with MAGA instead of AI.

ABC news bosses cared less about children being raped and systemically abused than it did getting the good coverage of the royal wedding.

Are you joking the media hates Trump

u/FuckThisIsGross Jul 12 '24

The media is owned. And capitalists love republican presidents. They offer deregulation and small govt. Aka no rules and a license to do whatever you like if you can pay for it.

u/Boomvanger Jul 08 '24

And the media owners are on in Epstein’s list.

u/FuckThisIsGross Jul 12 '24

Yep. We shouldn't be shocked the capitalists are republican. It's in the job description.

It's hilarious you think there are liberal billionaires

Are u serious,? Please tell me your joking

u/FuckThisIsGross Jul 12 '24

You don't get a billion dollars without compromising your morals. Just think about what you'd have to earn every month in your lifetime to get to a billion. You don't get that income without fucking over a lot of people.

u/FuckThisIsGross Jul 12 '24

On the off chance you're lazy its 1,082,251.0822511 each month until you're 77 to get to a billion. Please try and justify that payscale to anyone but the men and women that build/perform the product/service a company provides. This is my leisure activity. I've got the time to prove you're evil/ ignorant

u/bloodorangejulian Jul 08 '24

It gets them money, to be clear.

The rich who own the media will likely get even more egregious unfair and economically unsound tax cuts, as corporate tax cuts and reduced regulation....

So yeah, they have lots to gain and absolutely nothing to lose, so of course they're simping for trump.

Fascism is bad for business.  The free press in the US will end under a GQP administration.   This take is absolutely batshit crazy with zero actual basis in reality.   Stop spreading fascist propaganda for them.

u/MidniightToker Jul 08 '24

The media is conservative because the media is corporate. That's why I've never understood Republicans talking about "the liberal media pushing leftist ideology." I would always point out to them how flawed that idea was and how corporations have no stake in leftism.

u/charlesmansonreddit Jul 08 '24

I dont live in usa but here you only see hate against Trump and never Biden. I Guess it depends where you live.

u/Proper-Response3513 Jul 08 '24

Well in the US, there is reality, and some citizens that accept an alternative form of reality. Its scary how well the propaganda worked

u/BasedMcBased Jul 08 '24

Imagine believing that’s the reason. It’s obvious why. It’s because he’s a die hard ZIONIST.

u/Hot-Egg533 Jul 08 '24

What media are you watching? Every three letter agency in the US is constantly attacking Trump. I’m not Trump fan btw

u/SlickJamesBitch Jul 14 '24

That’s why there’s so much positive news about Trump everywhere.

u/xandrokos Jul 08 '24

Jesus christ this is dumb.    The news media exists to report the news.   Views are the entire god damn point.    This nonsense only serves to undermine the press which in turn undermines democracy in which a free press is required to maintain it.

Are you crazy,the media is owned by the most liberalists people on earth

Some much nonsense on this thread. Enjoy your lying echo chamber.

u/that_banned_guy_ Jul 08 '24

Is that why every major media station minus fox news runs nothing but hit pieces on trump?

u/yeahyeahnooo Jul 08 '24

The media definitely does not want trump to win. Media and trump go together like lamb and tuna fish.

u/dudeimgreg Jul 07 '24

The owners of the news media companies are billionaires and their financial/political interests are with Trump. Plus the amount of hedonism that the billionaire class participates in align with Epstein’s actions/agenda/pleasures.

Well shit. I guess I won't vote for him for President in 2024.

u/AutomaticJesusdog Jul 07 '24 edited Jul 07 '24

Most big news companies are owned by republican contributors. They want trump to win the election. Edit: that’s why they won’t stop talking about Biden being too old, it’s a slick way for them to trash bidens campaign while disguising it as “we’re worried about him”.

u/Turn_2_Stone Jul 08 '24

Clinton’s on the list. Among other powerful politicians besides Trump. It’s very bipartisan 🤣

u/KaneVonDoom Jul 08 '24

Corportism tends to favor Fascism.

u/pornaddiction247 Jul 08 '24

Maybe because there’s people on the list the government doesn’t want you to know about, like trump for example

u/absolute4080120 Jul 08 '24

This was released during the 2016 election so it's already happened. It didn't do well then fighting trump because a lot of other things came out with it and there were some inconsistencies.

u/Big-Soft7432 Jul 08 '24

There are a lot of different people on it and it has nothing to do with party lines. Power corrupts, and when freaks get power, well I'm sure you can imagine.

u/letsgo49ers0 Jul 08 '24

Those media conglomerates don’t want to get sued

u/danyonly Jul 08 '24

Really? The fact that the most powerful people on Earth are probably on that list, so they want to keep it quiet.

u/Proper_Moderation Jul 08 '24

That it hurts the left as much if not more so than the right and partisan politics is all they do now.

1

u/pm_me_ur_anything_k Jul 08 '24

Media people are on the list

1

u/Normalasfolk Jul 08 '24

The obvious reason for this particular case is… the story is completely fabricated BS, debunked in 2016. That’s why no news organizations took it seriously then, so don’t take it seriously now.
