PBS: Frontline - American Insurrection
PBS Frontline ^ | 4/13/2021 | A.C. Thompson ProPublica

Posted on 04/13/2021 8:33:11 PM PDT by MacNaughton

Over the last three years, FRONTLINE has collaborated with ProPublica to investigate the rise of extremism in America. In the aftermath of the assault on the U.S. Capitol, FRONTLINE and ProPublica team up again to examine how far-right groups were emboldened and encouraged by former President Trump and how individuals were radicalized and brought into the political landscape.

The official video of the Frontline broadcast is at the web-site. Forced myself to watch this drek on PBS. A.C. Thompson and ProPublica are dreadful. All parties involved totally dismissed AntiFa and BLM.

“PBS: Frontline - American Insurrection”

About time they started reporting on the violence committed by the Left.

Patriots need not be “radicalized.”

They need merely to be righteously enraged.

There is absolutely no reason PBS exists, NONE. Why is it so hard to defund this piece of pure unadulterated crap?

Imagine if President Trump had even hinted that people should come armed to his rally for a march on the Capitol and a real insurrection. Would the Capitol have been burned down like a Minneapolis business or would the Capitol police have surrendered it peacefully? And would we be voting on a new constitution yet?

That is the result of a real insurrection - not some velvet rope line tourism.

“’.. Why is it so hard to defund this piece of pure unadulterated crap? ....”

Because an army of freeloading “Karens” who want you to support their artistic whims and hobbies will descend on and make life hell for any politician that tries to defund!

The first Insurrection without any weapons confiscated, surrendered, brandished or fired. I think it is a Guinness Book of Records or something.

Fake news

Then again PBS celebrates the SLA, Black Panthers, Weather Undserground, and Chicago 7.

Even Jim Jones was a well meaning Democrat/Socialist.

The loony left, which worships at the altar of the Fake News dispensers, are still, collectively, unaware of the shambles at the border; and in the crime-infested, homeless overwhelmed, urban areas.

Why ? Because the Ministry of Truth has withheld the information from their compliant prisoners.

Because Sesame Street made MILLIONS on market tie-ins over half a century’s time and thinks taxpayers should pay to keep their program on the air, that as popular as the characters and merch are the pitch that they could not compete in the marketplace.

Because the Bush League Republicans are really just Assistant Democrats and want that organ of the Ministry of Propaganda funded.

I’m really having a hard time not cussing PBS and Frontline out right now on this thread. Out of respect for FR I’ll keep it to myself.

PBS and NPR have been a burr under my saddle for my adult life.

That said, there have been a few things I liked.
