Created Controversy

Liberals are whining about a statement of policy made by the Sinclair Corp., which owns many TV stations. They're making it sound like they FORCED their on-air people to say something against their will, on pain of firing if they did not.. They are not. It's NOTHING like the times when almost ALL the denizens of the "fake news" organizations use even the SAME WORDS to promote one of their liberal ideas. This was merely a statement of policy, and anchors were ASKED to read the statement, assuring their viewers that Sinclair did NOT involve itself in the "fake news" of the day. Anchors are given scripts to read every day, and they read them. It's true, everywhere. The funny thing is that what they THINK they are whining about is exactly what they, themselves, engaged in, in the past, and will again, in the future. (I'm reminded of the "gravitas" thing, where it seems like EVERY commentator used that very WORD). Sending out a memo for on-air personalities to repeat, as if it were real news. That's a common liberal scam, accuse others of what you are doing, yourself, ignoring the contradiction that entails. (The Hill)
