Don’t remember Bill Crawford having a problem when Twitter was run by self-described “commies” (their word) making sure their side’s lies were spread, while truth’s from the opposing side were censured.

Does Bill’s title “Calumniators Should not Escape Punishment” really mean he and his propaganda media leftist buddies, don’t want to be truth checked?

Bill’s writings to my knowledge express an opinion & when that opinion quotes a source he identifies the source. Unlike many media pundits who refer much too often to anonymous sources such as administration sources. While I don’t always agree with Bill’s opinions or conclusions, I do respect his journalism.

11:33, I agree. I don’t always agree with Bill but his name is attached to his post. Those who post anonymously can be vicious and cruel without fear of being punched in the mouth.

KF learned a new word.

I thought this was like the Gonculator on Hogan's Heroes.

Rarely, extremely rarely, are solutions to problems, or debates about tactics and strategy developed in this blog.

I’ll try. Bill’s solution doesn’t work because unlike newpapers and news publishers, commenters on social media are not employed (i.e. credibility, character, use of bonafied facts are not checked, etc). Newspapers and most large stream media (the sueable ones) have a vested interest in the content they produce, even Fox and MSNBC. Tucker Carlson famoused got sued (before being fired) and the plaintiff lost the case - Fox admitted in court that Mr. Carlson had no part of the news and was purely entertainment ala Stephen Colbert (my additional clarification, the court never mentioned Mr. Colbert). But I digress.

My solution would be to require by law that all members of social media verify the identities of their posters. They can still offer aliases, but the content publisher must know exactly who they are. You too KF.

Musk wanted to do this. It’s hard. But if everybody had to do it these smart guys will figure it out

The New York Times, Washington Post, Atlantic Magazine, the broadcast news networks all have credibility problems. It’s not just posters on the internet. The following are a few examples of traditional media getting it wrong:

Russian collusion by Trump
Obama Administration not spying on the Trump campaign
Trump calling Neo NAZIs very fine people
Trump degrading our military service members while in France
Hunters laptop is not real
There is no evidence that Joe Biden broke any laws related to Hinter’s business dealings
January 6th was an insurrection
The American border is secure
There is no validity that Covid 19 was developed in the Wuhan lab
Masks work
The vaccine will protect you from the Covid virus and prevent you from spreading it to others
The vaccine is completely safe
Children and infants should get the vaccine
Etc
Etc etc

Bill Crawford may “quote “accurate” sources,” as in the case of his race hustling the 1955 Emmett Till murder, conveniently before the 2019 state wide elections when Reeves was elected governor. Yea, Bill was accurate and Bill quoted sources, but that doesn’t mean Bill’s not a race hustler. Quoting accurate sources doesn’t mean that Bill “is not more concerned” about a 64 year old crime that just “might get the Democrat vote out during election time,” than Bill is about the out of control crime TODAY in the city of Jackson, being run his leftist Democrat party, including the dead children.

Regardless of which side you’re on, you can’t be a lap dog like Bill, or Sean/Fox and Rachel/MSNBC for that matter, then cry and complain when Bloggers and anonymous posters, concerned about the sad direction of our country, call you out for your hypocrisy, i.e. insane selective reporting, and your opinions that are ridiculous.

Blogs like this one are the only chance of getting the real story, and ALL OF IT, cause you sure ain’t gonna get it from Bill Crawford, and you sure ain’t gonna get it from the local “so-called news.” Bloggers like KF, that ain’t afraid of the truth, regardless of which side you’re on, and anonymous posters that can offer valuable opinions without worry of having the government weaponized against them, some chicken s__t boycott of their business, or losing their job, are the only chance we have of not being controlled by hypocritical propagandists.

Another unworkable non-solution @ 6:39 PM.

A lot of this would self-correct if we could just get back to the basics:

Lying is wrong. Don't do wrong.

When was Trump accused of calling Neo-NAZIs "very fine people"?

8:08 p.m. comment 2019 column is total fabrication. There was no such column.

Bill Crawford has always been a conservative.
It's true , he's never been a fascist or prejudiced to anyone because of their race or religion. He also never like liars or criminals.
He was a Republican when many Democrats were Klansmen.

@9:05pm
I take critism really well. But you simply proved my point about this blog, no problem solvers here, just whiners.

What’s unworkable? Have you anything other ideas to solve the problem? I liked the simply “do no wrong” solution. We’ll see how well the ten commandments on the walls works in Louisiana, but unfortunately we haven’t generations to solve the problem, and the courts will not let the experiment run its course. But we already know the answer. Just compare the quality of life, the crime, the education, the healthcare in the deeply religious south, and you’ll get your answer to how “that” solves problems.

@7:27pm
Well anyone so offended at these horrible atrocities in the press you mentioned is free to sue. Go get ‘em cowboy!

There is no proof that @7:09 AM is actually Bill Crawford.

What’s unworkable?

THIS is unworkable:

My solution would be to require by law that all members of social media verify the identities of their posters. They can still offer aliases, but the content publisher must know exactly who they are.

It is also duly noted that you didn't freely self-identify with verifiable proof to claim ownership of your comment.

7:09 AM (Bill), not a fabrication, but appears to be memory error. My sincere apologies!

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18

Did either one of Bill’s readers look up “columny?”

12:54 - please explain. Not a 'fabrication' but admit it as a "memory error"?

I don't know how it could not be a 'fabrication' if it wasn't true. How could your memory "make a mistake" about something that didn't exist?

Sounds to me more like a fabrication, or at best, a transposition of someone else's column that you dropped on (calumniated) Crawford somehow.

Kinda glad to see Crawford come on here an call you out, cause I didn't remember that column of his either, although I do vividily remember many columns he wrote trying to attack Tate both in 2019 when he was stoging for the MHA and any other way he could to help Hood, and again last year when he continued.

But your race baiting swipe is out of place - accusing someone of being a race baiter or a racist is in my mind - out of place, no matter what disagreements one might have on political positions.

@11:28, How do you know it was Bill Crawford? You don't.

11:28 PM, you ever hear a song and think it’s a certain band, only to be mistaken, find out it’s another?

Would be kind of like if you remembered years ago a Democrat said “They're (Republicans) going to put y'all back in chains," and you thought it was someone other than Race Baiter Joe Biden. Would be an honest error, wouldn’t it?

P.S. Jim Hood is a decent man. Much too decent for the Democrat Party.
