    Or, more likely, the media outlet that they usually got their news from buried the story. Just because you are willing to look at more than one source doesn't mean that most leftists are. If it's not on Twitter, MSNBC or CNN then it didn't happen for most on the left.

        It's no different than rightists not watching anything other than Fox or Newsmax. Or getting there information from people like Geller or Carlson. It's all skewed.
        It is a willful choice to ignore the other side.

          Which, in this case at least, changed an election. The fact that various media outlets blocked news of the laptop should be concerning to all involved (BTW, this really doesn't involve you as a Canadian) as it indicates a desire to affect the outcome of the election. That is not, never was, and never should be the goal of any supposed news source, their job is merely to report the facts (opinion pages need to be labeled as such and would not fall under this) and let the news consumer make up their own mind as to what to think about those facts.

            Why don't you tell us exactly what Geller, Carlson or Hannity have said about trumpy's dinner with two very vocal anti-Semites, Kanye West and Nick Fuentes

              Do you agree with all the views of everyone you are friends with? Can you dislike someones views and still like them as a person?

                  Well, let's see, on Facebook I have very seldom unfriended anyone for their political views. I have had a lot of liberals unfriend me though for posting the truth.

                      I wouldn't have anyone in my home who publicly denied the Holocaust and was vocally anti-Semitic. How about you?

                          That's a brilliant idea. That way you'll never have a chance to change his mind and he can go through life that way. Brilliant.


                          Perhaps we should engage with those that we disagree with. Obama was once against gay marriage.


                          Would you go to Bill Ayers house?

                            I get the Geller Report in my email every day. So far she has said nothing. I also checked her Facebook and again nothing.

                            I block you and bsm2 because I do not need dozens of email notifications a day for every time one of you posts bullshit.

                            Are you sure about that? You sure do not like a lot of what I post from Pamela Geller for apparent no reason other than that she is Jewish. I guess you don't dine in public with yourself.
