NewsGuard, the browser plug-in that purports to separate real news from fake news and which, unlike most plug-ins, is included in Microsoft’s mobile Edge browser by default only requiring user activation, rated the exact same story about mainstream media journalist Lara Logan encouraging people to read news outlets from across the spectrum as fake on Breitbart News, but reliable on other websites. During a podcast interview, Logan claimed the media was “mostly liberal.”

“The media everywhere is mostly liberal, not just the U.S.,” she proclaimed, adding, “Although the media has historically always been left-leaning, we’ve abandoned our pretense — or at least the effort — to be objective, today. … We’ve become political activists, and some could argue propagandists, and there’s some merit to that.”

“This is the problem that I have. There’s one Fox, and there’s many, many, many more organizations on the left. … The problem is the weight of all these organizations on one side of the political spectrum. When you turn on your computer, or you walk past the TV, or you see a newspaper headline in the grocery store If they’re all saying the same thing, the weight of that convinces you that it’s true,” Logan explained. “You don’t question it, because everyone is saying it. Unless you seek out Breitbart on your computer, you’re probably not even going to know what the other side is saying.”

What she must have had to go through to surmount those barbarous acts.

A truly strong woman.

She was raped brutally by Muslim thugs. Her liberal “colleagues” in the media poured acid on her wounds by treating her scum rapists in the usual, patronizing, politically correct manner. She had to admit what is happening for her own sanity.

Edge is now a leftist propaganda tool masquerading as a browser. In other words, Edge is a fake browser.

I just finished listening to the 3 and a half hour podcast on Mike Ritland’s Mike Drop podcast. What a unique, fascinating tough person Lara Logan is!

Can’t say I agree with all her decisions but she lead her life as she wanted and understands and is living with the consequences.

Cusses like a sailor. I never have understood the fascination with including F bombs in everyday life and conversations.

Still very fascinating.
