Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans

Its million-plus users democratically filter the torrent of online media, upvoting or “digging” desired content while “burying” rubbish and spam.

Democrat operatives have LONG done this on Yahoo News and other sites.

"desired" content and "rubbish" my a&&.

“...in order to not only spread conservative disinformation throughout the internet, but to censor and suppress anything resembling a liberal opinion.”

WAHHH!! They are using “our” tactics against us! WAHHHH!

There's another way to run your posts right to the top on Google.com.

Find a very popular thread somewhere on anything. Post your screed.

Google.com has an algorithm that's going to look at every element in the thread, see your stuff, and puff it to the top.

Always make sure to post something about anything on any Freeper thread that has a 1,000 plus post count.

When DUmmies and MUslims do this DUmping, DUping, and ISLAMming polls, the media just shrugs. It is a LIE by omission to pretend that NO other groups do this.

Only FR gets called out on it. WAHHHHHHHHHHH.

It’s wrong to this?

Is the idiotorial writer some kind of Diggot? Can we accuse him of Diggotry?

I got banned from that place during the 2008 election for my rants against Obama and have never been back. Guess I’m not persistent as you guys.

Put me on the ping list and I’ll go back and help you out.

I was on the Digg ping list for a while, but was too busy to keep up with it at the time. Sounds like I missed a lot of fun!

[kanawa]

Digg it :)

I’ll bet that Digg liberals voted down reports of Journolistgate and the 400 journalists who colluded on the daily media talking points with the DNC.

[NeoCaveman]

I had forgotten all about Digg.

Just recovered my login and have started up again :)

Thanks

Sounds like it’s working, if it makes them whine like that. Keep up the good work! :-D

They pretended to be African-Americans in order to call their opponents racists:

EdHurl: I reported DDR Skata for using the racist term ‘Beulahs and Uncle Toms’ when referring to a conservative black woman. Additionally, I also told a fib and I stated I was African-American. I said that I was deeply offended by the terms he used.

The terms ARE racist, regardless of what skin color the one pointing it out happened to be or claimed to be.

they’re malignant...keep shining the light on them and watch them scurry...they KNOW their ideas can’t survive scrutiny.

[Twotone]

Yep. We are evil conservatives & the other side is blameless. They never do dirty tricks & they never commit vote fraud. Watching their lying faces & reading their lying commentary just makes me ill. Lord, please let them get creamed this November!!!

I tried making it through his piece but couldn’t find the scandal in it.

What, there was collusion between conservatives to note certain stories? AND? The Left routinely does this.

How about collusion between 400 journalists and the DNC to not report negative news about Lord Obama?

[a fool in paradise]

Also in skimming over it, I couldn’t find these examples of conservative falsehoods that were being elevated.

Were the stories “factually incorrect”?

or did they just not hold the Politically Correct slant?

What’s a digg? If it’s not FR i’m not interested.
Everything else is just grey noise.
