RE: Mainstream Media, Pewdiepie, Fake News and Why Steemit is the future for true Independent Journalism

in #news7 years ago

good post. I agree with what you say about how it fits with the MSM's neo-nazi narrative they're pushing, even though real neo-nazis are few and far between these days. He's a white guy who chose to peddle something other than blatant left-wing politics to the youth, and thus he committed a cardinal sin. A hit piece was certain to come. I think the media will be surprised though- the backlash against the media and support PewDiePie will receive, over time, will be more potent than the buy-in.

Thank so much for the comment, I just think it can only help their current push with saying everyone they don't agree with must be a nazi.

It's insane to think people are believing this bullshit, having his show cancelled didn't just affect him, over 100 people were working on the scare Pewdiepie show - they now don't have jobs let's just take a moment to see the real world effect this has had on many people who had nothing to do this but are still out of work.

The outpouring of support is amazing, but just last night I saw another article that again was manipulating and lying about the situation they are still blatantly lying about this - and some people are still listening.

I think this was a massive error in their judgement, and as the group of people aware of fake news just spread exponentially this should and could have some amazing long term repercussions on the media establishment - people will become more aware with time.
