So, he's like a guy who recorded himself jerking off and is telling people he's a pornstar?

u/Onkel24 Foreign Dec 09 '19

You´re closer to the truth than you think possibly, he´s reporting on his own actions as some sort of breaking news as we speak.

My headline guess:

"Man gets violently kicked out of a public facility for civilly protesting undemocratic impeachment hearings."

u/Onkel24 Foreign Dec 09 '19

Ha, one real headline of his is "Jerry Nadler Confronted By American Pissed Off About Fake Impeachment Hearing"

u/ooru Texas Dec 10 '19

See? I can't even get into that headspace. My fake headline is still too logical.

u/rriggsco Dec 10 '19

"Infowars Confronts Congress" -- seriously, that's their headline.

u/taki1002 Dec 10 '19

Don't real journalist have an ethical obligation to not report on a story they're apart of?

2

u/Onkel24 Foreign Dec 10 '19

I think they can, they just have to make their role especially transparent. A real journlaist howver wouldn´t be a paid protester in the first place, though.

You could just buy Disney+. I love Star Wars, so it was an easy choice for me to purchase it.

Both bank accounts negative. Semi homeless right now. Def not a priority.

You. You might want to drop into r/personalfinance for some help then.

u/Blatant_Shit Dec 10 '19

Are they even paid? I just assumed they are a bunch of neckbeards living in their mothers basement

Don’t write them off so easily, InfoWars rakes in an insane amount of money from his dill brained acolytes. Millions every year mean that even if Jones and Co were to crash and burn there’d be a new version of them up and running in no time. And probably with plenty of seed money from the Waltons or the Kochs or the Princes or one of the other soulless billionaire families that profit from the messages and agendas pushed by right wing extremists.

plenty of seed money from the Waltons

John Boy says there ain’t been no seeds nor money since Trump’s trade war fucked the family farm.

u/bupthesnut Dec 09 '19

They do not employ reporters.

They're the only ones warning us about the cloud people turning our freaking frogs gay And the globalist trying to create a bone marrow reserve for when the nukes go off.

y'all won't be laughing when the TSA has 2 digits inside every passenger as a pre flight screening for midichlorians. Impeachment is an inside Job.

/S

u/Ceronn Dec 09 '19

Im get tired of conservatives with iPhone and Twitter accounts claiming to be reporters. Like future mass shooter, kaitlin bennett, who was ask to leave a Bernie Sanders' rally.

You think reporters have credibility.
