In reply to the discussion: Comcast Orders MSNBC To Remove Anti-TPP Hosts [View all]uhnope
(6,419 posts)139. billhicks76: your CT would be hilarious if not for the outright lying
billhicks76: The NSA online efforts were very specifically aimed at websites in the Middle East and were designed to cut down on the number of young Arab men being recruited into extremist beliefs via ISIS, Al Qaeda etc. The languages used were specific to that region. So not English and not in the USA. If you read those articles you know the truth--and therefore if you're trying to portray them otherwise now you're lying. So either you're sorely mistaken (ignorant of what you cite) or you are making shit up for the sake of your CT.

Real bummer. We're also losing Jon Stewart & Bill Moyers although Bill still has a website.

It bothers me quite a bit. Ed's show is one of the few I might take the time to watch.

I think Ed has been the only host who has had Papantonio on his show as a guest.

Well certainly the networks that pumped the nation for the Iraq war are soooo much better than RT.
