Two question I have to ask:

There are people smart enough to join Steemit who believe what they see in the MSM?

There are people smart enough to use the internet who believe anything they read on snopes?

This story may not be 100% legit, but who cares, nothing on snopes is legit!

Someone asked about this on quora, the first reply was this (from "Archie D'Cruz" fyi)

" the biggest difference here is that the story on the left was written after Donald Trump’s visit to Mexico, and the one on the right was updated after his speech late that evening in Phoenix."

A bit further in his post he said this

"It should be noted that many major newspapers (including the WSJ) regularly publish multiple editions. Some of the publications I have worked at did this because of distances—early editions were destined for areas outside the city, and making the newsstands in time meant pushing one edition to press a couple of hours before the main city edition. At other times, major late-breaking stories would be captured in a third (or fourth and fifth) edition."

So I think this provides a bit more context, otherwise yeah it would look very bad.

Nice job researching it before breaking out the pitchfork.

People need to be careful. Blindly dismissing the media can be just as dangerous as blindly believing it.

Don't think many will notice this though, people just looked at the newspapers and come to a conclusion without looking deeper. OP provides no context but since most people on here already hate msm they automatically agree with it.

edit : he updated his post, kudos to OP

Because getting news out first is more important than getting facts correct

Because facts never change over time and because people NEVER say one thing in the morn and another in the eve. Which was the case here. Many thanks to OP as well for the edit.

Even the shoe ad is passively colored and worded on the left, while the other has aggressive red, "the rise of" and a person jumping (forming a pyramid). #conspiracy

The ad on the left was ''waiting for the second shoe to drop''. To everyone's surprise not only was it still in the air on the right ad, but the first shoe had also rised & joined the second one to form the bottom of a pyramid.

lol. good eye... ;-)

Not to be skeptical, but can you provide a source for this.
Just curious is all.

Interesting... thanks for the verification!

the picture of the papers is not source enough?

No.
There's a lot that can be edited with a picture.
I've seen plenty of pictures that were falsified but seemed real at first.

No, because it's missing lots of context. They could have used better headlines, it's just not as bad if you look into it.

I think American media is the most corrupt in the world at the moment. This Trump saga opened my eyes.

Perfect, simply perfect display of the media messing with our minds. Thank you for pointing this out! It truly does make me so bad to see it right in our faces and they call alternative media fake news!!!

OR, there may always be more truth to the first impressions left from a meme...

Yes perhaps you are right

It's messed up that the media would try to dissuade us to buy Loafers in some demographics and not others.
Inconceivable . Preposterous .

Time, and other magazines have been known to change their covers and often entire articles depending on the demographics.

Talk about being two faced.

check the update to the feed. I was mistaken...

Well, effin shi... that is... proof of what I knew all along. Thanks for sharing this.

That is not media training your brains, it is media reacting to the people's wishes.
Since nobody buys a newspaper that shows him how wrong he is.

Free market, nothing more, go on, nothing to see here.
