Were these the “journalism professors” from the Goebbels school of Propaganda.

journalism professors = communist propagandists

And I think “journalism professors” are a danger to public health and should be exiled somewhere safe from the virus - like the middle of the Atlantic ocean.

The so called journalists focus on Trump and non-stop coverage figuring they could neuter him helped elect him w/o spending much money.

Now the COVID-19 daily briefings are launching him to landslide status in November 20 and the media tried to neuter him for 3 years.

They must be going broke paying their psychologist bills.

Their science & math requirements are whatever is required by the schools liberal arts program. So a minimal grounding at vest & its probably watered down.

Other words the media is annoyed there is still 1 in 8 of us not totally losing out shite over COVID 19. Every one must be glued to the TV shaking in their boots because the media told us to.

What the hell are they talking about? The news from Fox has been pretty upfront on the seriousness of this issue.

Journalism professors are a danger not just to public health, they are a danger to America. Put them on a space capsule and send them to Pluto. Permanently.

Fox is not alarmist and hysterical enough for them

Professor was the term used for the piano player in the whore houses at the turn of the 20th century. Very. Apt for this bunch.

We go to CSPAN when Fox leaves. Record to go back later.

Wall Street Journal reported on a study of college majors ranking them on the SAT tests of those in the major and upon the difficulty of the course material in each major.

Journalism was next to last in both measures.
Education was last on both majors.

The only conclusion that can be made is that the opinions of a professor (educator) of journalism should be ignored.

Fox already fired one popular prime-time host, Trish Regan, for telling the truth and has sidelined another, Kennedy, for repeats of Lou Dobbs afternoon show. Right now I listen to Tucker and Laura and sometimes Hannity (he continues to grandstand when interviewing). Varney continues to be my go-to for business info every morning.

If there are any people with less credibility than journalism professors, it would have to be journalists.

I'd sooner see my children become truck-stop hookers than journalists.

Journalism professors are on par with Negro Studies and Feminism Studies professors.
