2- How is it that a random Internet sleuth put the coming Danchenko arrest together months ago, but the entirely of corporate media couldn't make that connection?
3- Instead, throughout all of #RussiaGate, you gave yourselves Pulitzers while ignoring real journalism. You acted instead as stenographers for a cabal of bad actors.
4- Yes, the real story of #RussiaGate is big. It's that the real collusion was between the Hillary Clinton campaign and Russia, to sabotage Donald Trump (first his campaign, then his presidency).
It was the mother of all ratf***ing, the use the famous Watergate term.
5- But the bigger story is the 4th Estate as an institution completely and utterly failed. People can no longer trust you all to defend the truth, no matter which political party that helps or hurts.
6- Consumers turned to social media & smaller news outlets because that where the last bastion of real investigative journalism was occurring.
Your problem is not Facebook and Twitter, it's that you left us no alternative but to go to Facebook and Twitter.
7- Censoring Facebook to put the horse back in the barn won't help. The only thing that can fix our broken Media industry is an Adolph Ochs level re-commitment to truth-telling.
I won't hold my breath.

1- St. Michael’s college in Vermont requires all students be vaccinated.
But… (cont)
2- Friday they went back to virtual classes because:
“.. college President Lorraine Sterritt said the school uncovered additional cases that day for a total of 54 cases reported from Monday through Friday among the 1,500-student body.”
1- "..cruise operators confirmed 1,359 cases between June 26 and Oct. 21, a roughly four-month period that represents a rebound for the industry. Many of those involved breakthrough infections.."
Almost all cruises mandate vax so "most" is likely 95+%.
2- "During that time, operators reported 49 hospitalizations and 38 medical evacuations for covid-19 or covid-like illnesses. At least one person died after testing positive during a cruise."
Cruise at your own risk.
3- "Cruise lines have acknowledged positive cases over the past few months, but the full scope was not previously known."
That's because cruise lines work very hard to suppress these stories. Almost all of the stories I see are leaks, not disclosures.
1- “.. with COVID-19 infection rates rising despite Ireland boasting one of the highest vaccination rates in the world, ministers scrambled to put some mitigation measures in place to minimise any further spread and keep the whole economy open.”
“..facemasks should be worn at all times other than when people are dancing, drinking or eating, and clubgoers must also stay one metre apart in a supervised queue at the bar to order a drink.”
3- More. Let’s just outlaw fun.,👇
“Neither should they encourage fans to sing along, the guidelines said.”
