10 Major Disasters From History And How The Media Reported Them
« on: November 30, 2021, 01:06:51 PM »
Whenever we think of mainstream media journalists, one word comes to mind: incorruptible. As long as there have been human atrocities throughout history, there have been fair and honest mainstream media organizations courageously reporting on them! Thanks, mainstream media!

Here is a list of disasters from history, and the headlines that were found in the media the next day:

French Revolution: "Hundreds Of Guillotine Accidents Reported"

Tiananmen Square: "Man Killed In Collision With Tank"

OJ Simpson: "Pair Of Gloves Strangles OJ's Wife"

Aztec human sacrifice: "Native Peoples Discover Innovative Way To Reduce Carbon Footprint"

Pompeii: "Trump Destroys Pompeii"

Oklahoma City Bombing: "Fertilizer Mishap At Government Building"

Las Vegas mass shooting: "Bump Stock Accidentally Explodes"

9/11: "Shortsighted Contractors Build Towers In Path Of Oncoming Planes"

Hitler invades Poland: "Poland Invades Hitler!"

Herod killing babies: "Strong Attendance At Pro-Choice Rally In Bethlehem"

What would we do without the media? Thanks, media!

That would be funny if it weren't indicative of how the media attempts to distort facts.

Disgusting and unconscionable. "SUV drives into Christmas parade participants." As if the damned vehicle drives itself.  :whatever:
