• Megyn Kelly

    From Aaron Thomas@1:342/202 to All on Sunday, January 19, 2025 15:12:36
    Megyn Kelly is the best media personality ever, especially from the mainstream media, but perhaps the best EVER.

    I enjoyed listening to her today at Trump's final rally in Washington DC (I'm watching it on TV.)

    She asked "How great is it that J-Lo's candidate lost?"

    I loved that question. I can't stand J-Lo.

    Then she said "All she does is wreck marriages, and now she wants to wreck our country too!"

    Awesome. I nominate Megyn Kelly for best broadcaster ever.

    She hasn't been part of the "mainstream media" for at least 7 years.

    Newscaster speaking at a rally in support of a politician? what happened to "fair and balanced" ?

    She asked "How great is it that J-Lo's candidate lost?"

    Who?

    I loved that question. I can't stand J-Lo.

    Who? is that some rapper or something?

    Then she said "All she does is wreck marriages, and now she wants to
    wreck our country too!"

    oh, it's a she? or are we talking about Megyn (jesus christ what kind of way is that to spell "megan" ?) Seems like she has at least one wrecked marriage.

    Awesome. I nominate Megyn Kelly for best broadcaster ever.

    I'm pretty sure I can hear Walter Cronkite rolling over in his grave.

    It depends on your definition of "mainstream" and it also depends on your perception of "reality."

    Newscaster speaking at a rally in support of a politician? what
    happened to "fair and balanced" ?

    That's been a slogan for a long time, but just a slogan.

    She asked "How great is it that J-Lo's candidate lost?"

    Who?

    EXACTLY. Thank you!

    I loved that question. I can't stand J-Lo.

    J-Lo is nobody, really, and I envy you for not knowing who she is.

    oh, it's a she? or are we talking about Megyn (jesus christ what kind
    of way is that to spell "megan" ?) Seems like she has at least one
    wrecked marriage.

    There's a difference between getting a divorce and being a homewrecker. Megan Kelly got a divorce, and this J-Lo person wrecked somebody else's marriage.

    I was wondering if someone would pick up on that.

    Most of your internet news folks are biased, which is why heavily-biased
    people often prefer them.

    Awesome. I nominate Megyn Kelly for best broadcaster ever.

    I'm pretty sure I can hear Walter Cronkite rolling over in his grave.

    That was the first name that came to my mind upon reading "best
    broadcaster." That, and Les Nessman. ;)

    I got a subscription to Ground.news early last year. It's been rather nice to see where the biases sit.

    Wild ones can, I have seen it. Farm raised fat ones, especially ones
    purchased in the Cincinnati area, probably not so much. :D

    see where the biases sit.

    I found a site that was good about ranking the news sources. I hope I bookmarked it as it has been a while since I felt I needed it!

    It had ratings for leans left/right, moderate, and also fake/conspiracy.

    This sounds like Ground News (at least I think that's what it was called).

    I've been on the hunt for something similar, but I've upgraded my criteria. I would like to be able to filter news so that I get international news sources first, and would also like to filter out certain keywords or topics. (Like, for example, I need a mood cleanse and am interested in state political topics but don't want Trump-focused news -- on my own I'm going to get it anyway because I'm in JD Vance's state.)

    Not partisan news, just don't need to hear anymore about Dear Leader.

    In this case, it only listed a rating for a source... it wasn't a place
    where you could read news. I would go there after hearing someone claim
    that "XXX" source is "lefists/conservative," just because they didn't like
    what they reported, and then see what how it was rated there.

    IMHO, the ratings on the site were more accurate than the claims.
