FunnyShe was trying to do a fluff piece interview, and he was trying to drop hard facts. I'm glad he didn't back down on his points.
Haven't watched it but sounds like someone with strong convictions and an idea why things are the way they are. Hopefully eventually enough people recognize the fact that we need a functional society that allows the random person to feel comfortable. Cause if you get enough itchy people things get scratched.
She pulled back the microphone mid sentence when he refused to let the conversation get derailed.
Very sus
This guy is my hero
Crazy how fast she pulled back on that. Like she has been trained to not allow that sort of talk. It was almost instant.
From to in an instant!
A dog watching another dog bote the hand that feeds her.
It really makes you wonder how these reporters are trained. What else can they not talk about on air?
Anything that goes against the values of Sinclair or NexStar would be off the table.
So general common sense like fuck ICE and free Palestine?
Pretty much everything that isn't on their script, IIRC.
She knows exactly what she is doing. She probably wouldn't even get into any trouble if she had let the guy go on for a bit since it is just a random, live interview. Doesn't matter, though, as boot-fellating, spittle-licking toadies will instantly and hungrily provide cover for the owner class. There will always be a critical mass of just about every demographic (even those you would not expect it from) who will be willing to sell out for that payday. If she doesn't try to silence or steamroll any even remotely anti-greed rhetoric she might be passed over for that next promotion.
Shout out to Washington Heights. I used to live at Fort Washington and 181st. I miss it.
They better never interview me on live TV. Ill be asking the reporter where they will be hiding when the revolution comes.

Don't worry, they'd make sure that clip of you'd never make it to air. 🫡
If the fediverse can focus on integrating content from from other fediverse sources extremely organically, the fediverse will win. I shouldn't have to leave Lemmy to watch this video.
You need to leave? I could just watch it on the timeline. Using jerboa, I guess it depends on client.
Ok web, its embedded. On mobile, I have to hop out.
Time for a new client, it sounds like 🖖🏼🤓
On voyager, I have to go out of client.
Woah weird, I just watched it by clicking on it in voyager. Maybe something with the instance I'm logged in to?
(Ok, voyager opens the loop link in an embedded browser window,)
yeah thats what I'm talking about.
Ok, it sounded like you needed to manually open it outside. I agree it's not perfect and can be improved , but it still works without needing to click too often.
It's embedded for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Are there some federated video sites? Most of the video results in duckduckgo are hosted by the tech giants, would be cool if there was some alternatives
PeerTube is the biggest player for fediverse video as far as I know. There is also Loops, which is where this video is hosted.
Did you have to leave on .world? I didn't have to on my instance, but I don't know exactly how all that works.
In this case I'd say it's especially good for the sake of loops rather than lemmy. Loops is quite a small platform, and looking at it now, this post has 23 likes and 2 comments. But two posts I've seen on lemmy, totaling ~800 upvotes and ~45 comments.
Seems like pulling that info into loops would make it all feel much more lively, though I'm sure this isn't insight to the already busy loops creator!
lol I love that guy, he definitely like "oh ya, it's my time, I'm over this shit, but I'll be polite about it"
she smiles like the woman from ba sing se,
the back in the 90s part screams body language of desperation to signal to him to play along and say what she wants him to say.
The news reporter wanted a feel good puff piece regardless of how inappropriate it is. The interviewee wanted to report the actual news.
The company that owns that NBC affiliate wanted a feel good puff piece. I doubt she had a say in the matter.
Yeah, she's just following orders.

But it wasn’t inappropriate…
A misunderstanding on your part I thinks. I believe they are saying it was inappropriate to attempt to sanitize reality so they could release a "feel good puff piece".
To the holding company it is.
hoarding company*
🤌🏼
Amazing
Can't let people say the truth, it would inconvenience your masters.
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.
Didn't a literal Nazi coin that phrase while talking about jews?
I knew it was the kids with cancer all along!
Damn, Adolf. Is your name a unit of measurement for bad-but-good jokes. That one gets ya right in the Schmitler, ya know?
Yeah! Those little brats have had it too easy for too long!
Well not that long EACH, but you know 🤷
Careful with that quote, it's by Kevin Alfred Strom a Neo-Nazi from an 1993 essay in the national Vanguard, a white nationalist publication and it refers to the antisemitic trope of world Judaism.
I'm not criticizing you, just want to contextualize it because it could be misconstrued to be a antisemitic dog-whistle, especially in the context of the linked article.
It's an axiomatic truism. It's logic is self contained.
To learn who is wet, simply find out who is in the water.
Why does that preclude it from being in the zeitgeist?
Because it's literally a white supremacist talking point?
You and I are in agreement; the user I responded to seemed to be implying otherwise.
Edit: I think it’s a bit strong to say it’s “a literal white supremacist talking point.” Your average boomer is going to mistakenly associate it with Voltaire. I think folks that are some level below terminally online have seen one of the many pieces pointing out its origin. Away from the author, it could stand on its own merits which is why “kids with cancer” is a funny response to it. In the US, at least, I haven’t seen a lot of discussion from the white supremacists who run the government on this quote which further makes me question if it’s a literal talking point. Perhaps you are aware of groups that are actively pushing it? If not, it’s a bit more reasonable to say what the first response in this thread said. Be careful.
Logic self contained within nature's perfect geometry, a circle.
Well, that just means he has experience ruling over people, and not allowing them to criticize him.
That means it's valid.
