A bit disingenuous with funny smells.
I'll wait to find out who it was that shot her
and why others have been shot at the same location.

Agreed. Treat every news story with skepticism. The business model of news orgs is to sensationalize to create clicks and shares.

Ja I don't believe that news story either. Only three words from the 3 AM public confrontation between strangers that escalated to both sides exchanging fire were included in the article, which seems conveniently selective.

I don't know about y'all, but I've noticed a distinct decrease in reporting about the protests in the recent weeks. If I only paid attention to most mainstream outlets, I wouldn't even know it was still happening.

Take a look at CNN's website - nothing about protests.

https://www.cnn.com/

Fox News? One story really related to the protests, others about Russian protests (unrelated) and the protests effect on Coronavirus resurgence.

Something less biased - USA Today? Nothing.

https://www.usatoday.com/

APNews? One link about US protests.

https://apnews.com/

I am not generally a conspiracy theorist, but it would seem that all news outlets are tampering down the stories about the protests and it looks intentional across the board. It's literally the biggest news story in the country, besides Coronavirus, I think. Are people simply not interested in it any more and these news outlets have made a financial decision not to cover it because of that lack of interest?

If people are still interested (I think they are), why won't the news continue covering it? Did the Trump administration put a bug in their ears to tone down the coverage? Did they all decide to do it because they thought it would decrease the scale of the protests? Or do some outlets (i.e. left-biased ones) not cover because they think Americans constantly reading about protests would boost Trump's chances in the election? It is also entirely possible that right-biased news outlets aren't covering it because they think it'll increase Biden's chances in the election.

I don't know. But I do know the protests are still happening in many places around the country and we're getting very little coverage about it from the mainstream press. What I'd like to know is - why?

21 injured after an explosion and fire on a naval ship in San Diego

****'s still burning and it's got San Diego so polluted that it hurts to breathe if you're outside for more than a few minutes. I'm miles inland too so it's probably absolutely ****ed closer to the shore.

The cool thing about this particular history repeating itself is that we have notes

I thought the revolution wouldn't be televised cause the world would be too busy burning for anyone to have the luxury of sitting down and watching it on TV.

Nah it's because everyone's on their phones now.

lol @ the Navy

the USA mimics old Britian the royal navy

now the USA has the most powerful Navy in the world

but China navy seems to be creping up

There aren't enough gays in China for them to ever compete with our Navy.

As far as I know they're not even trying. They're just building lots of missiles to sink our navy.

You're thinking of the game battleship.

I hope they immediately released the squirrel again because freedom.

Elephant Mass Death Could Be Caused by New Pathogen That May Pass to Humans

This story is creeper though

Not mine.

...invaluable record collection to be donated to SDSU.

sounds very 'let them eat cake'-ish

If she wants a career path without a college degree she should take dick for money. On or off screen.

Hopefully she’ll meet the same fate.

The Trump Administration has mandated that hospitals sidestep the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and send critical information about COVID-19 hospitalizations and equipment to a different federal database


We really can’t sit and watch this happen, can we? Call your local hospitals and tell them not to comply. He can’t mandate to local hospitals. This is ****ing insane.

Megan Thee Stallion says she was shot in Los Angeles, expects to recover

Shot several times in the foot?

Also wtf I thought this bitch was a smokeshow 30-something but she's actually a kind of rough 25. Weird.

I don't think they had animatronic dinosaurs before Christ.

Pretty sure the current consensus among scientists is that all the animatronic dinosaurs drowned in the flood.

Incorrect. Noah saved at least two of them.

Yep, this is definitely the most worrying development to come out of the US yesterday, and I'm surprised that the mainstream media is allowing itself to get distracted with other stories.

The Trump admin having a stranglehold on the pandemic statistics going out to the public and the CDC will surely tip the US into a quagmire of untrustable pronouncements about the progress of the virus. If you thought that hearing about the ever-rising cases in Florida was bad, wait til your only source of information is a Trump-adjusted Sharpie graph showing that Florida actually has zero cases, that it was all a Fauci hoax.

I've seen lots of reports in the mainstream media about case numbers but not much about deaths. Am I looking in the wrong places?

Maybe you're looking at the wrong time, SoundgardenRocks: the media focuses on what is spiking today, and the spike in deaths will probably not arrive for another week or so.
It is depressingly predictable:
Reports about parties and bars: two weeks later, reports about surges in cases. In two weeks time, I'd expect reports about surges in deaths - unless by that time Trump is able to declare that there have been no deaths because "coronavirus cases are 99% harmless".

In fact that's probably why the Trump admin is moving now to censor the statistics about CV: they know that very soon the actual death count will be so high that the GOP will have problems pushing the lie that "America is in a good place."

773 people died of it yesterday, in the United States.

I called our local hospital concerned citizens PR line and told them I hope the refuse Trump’s mandate and the lady sounded like she thought I was crank. I could hear her southern pro-trumpiness over the phone.

Hospitals simply cannot comply with an order to sever ties with the CDC. It’s not just covid. Respect for the CDC’s earned authority protects us from all health dangers.

Also check your local media and government sites for statistics locally.

Thanks OH. For some reason, a tendency I've found is that when I click on many links related to cases, I'm not always presented with a broad view of the deaths (sometimes the deaths are very contextualized - given state, given country, etc. but I want to see how the numbers look on a timeline).

Likewise, the same goes for when I click on links about deaths.

CDC looks like a good place to get the stats I'm looking for. Unfortunately, my news viewing habits are very ingrained, I'll have to implement the CDC into my habits whenever I'm interested in Covid stats.

That got a hearty chuckle out of me.

Russia trying to hack and steal COVID-19 vaccine data, says Britain

Boo ****ing hoo.

Actually, they are wanting to bypass the CDC completely.
The excuse they will use is that the CDC is not doing an effective job.
Well, it’s not as effective as it could be simply because they
haven’t updated their very old systems, so there’s a kernel of truth there.
It’s an old GOP trick: defund and generally screw up the system
from within and then get rid of it because it isn’t effective or doesn’t work at all.
That’s part of the reason you’re seeing the dismantling of various governmental areas with these people.

Shame on them for not making it open source. Ffs.

Gates or Bezos or whoever should give them a few billion dollars like ****ing TODAY

So in fact worse than I thought, rostasi. As the US heads into a health crisis that no-one can see the limits of, the chance of getting clear info and guidance has just disappeared. It's like putting on a blindfold as you head out on to the freeway...

Well done!

Times two.

Same for the WHO.

At least the WHO has international backing and is not beholden to the Trump Admin for its survival. It's the CDC which is vulnerable right now.

America has a responsibility to fund the WHO no strings attached.

But I hear you. Pretty sure we’re on the same page.
