زندگی کرنے کے دو ہی راستے ہیں
پہلا نظام سے مصالحت کرکے یس سر ، یس میم کہتے کہتے خود سر یا میم بن جانے کا
دوسرا غیر درست نظام سے منہ موڑ کے، غلط کو غلط کہہ کے سوال کرتے ہوئے احمق، لاابالی، ان فٹ کہلاتے مگر انسان بنے رہنے کا
جس میں ہمت ہو وہ دوسری راہ چنتا ہے

مگر بے ہمت یا کم ہمت لوگوں کی اکثریت پہلے راستے پر چلتے رہنے کو درست سمجھتی ہے
اور نظام سے جڑے رہنے کا درس دیتی ہے

Many journalists don't understand the role they play in keeping politicians honest—which their audience *says* they want. When Trump told us on live TV that the shutdown was his, it became his—it could be reported as the "Trump shutdown." The media now acts like it's a coin flip.
2/ Trump can't be held to his word because US media fails to
"scaffold" coverage: folding into tomorrow's news (in an ineluctable—i.e. fully ingrained—way) the info we learned today. *Every headline* mentioning the shutdown has a *responsibility* to call it the "Trump shutdown."
3/ Once media decides that scaffolding yesterday's *facts* into today's coverage is somehow biased—which any journalism professor will tell you it isn't—you create an environment in which Donald Trump knows in advance that he can lie today with *few media repercussions* tomorrow.

Goodbye to the rest of my day. Here are all of the Russian ads.
democrats-intelligence.house.gov/facebook-ads/s…
One of the first more successful/costly ads, from 2015. Posts promising "updates" (including one about the Charleston shooting) seem to perform better so far. Also notice targeting- Baltimore, Ferguson, and surrounding.
Nothing like some good old patriotism to generate some clicks 🇺🇸

Just like with RT's cat and tsunami videos, this page was looking to draw people in before delivering more divisive content...
