So the FCC chair is threatening networks that broadcast unfavorable news

[Crepitus]

He called news that said 5 US air tankers were struck during a Iranian drone attack "fake news" and threatened the various station's broadcast licenses.

This in spite of the fact the tRump himself had already acknowledged this as factual even though he took pains to minimize the damage.

Any of you tRumplings gonna defend their first amendment rights?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The "damage" was minimal on them. It is more a case of the USAF applying an abundance of caution to their operation following the attack.

This is a shot, post strike of the tanker fleet. I don't see any heavily damaged aircraft in it.

Thats nice, kid, but completely irrelevant to my post.

try again.

It is relevant. Those posting that 5 aircraft were "struck" are full of shit. That's amplifying what occurred to make it sound like the planes were smashed to bits like this:

when the reality is they were barely damaged at all.

Nope, tRump himself said 5 were struck.

Ted Lie2u is very low IQ.

Pesky details.

[T. A. Gardner]

Nope, tRump himself said 5 were struck.

And, if by struck, say one were hit by a piece of shrapnel that punctured the skin of the aircraft and that needed say, a two-hour repair would you argue that the aircraft was somehow destroyed or left inoperable for an extended period?

Almost certainly better than yours kiddo!

Your jealousy makes me smile every time!

You're starting to look pretty desperate here, maybe you should take a break.

I'm being reasonable and accurate. It is you that wants America, and Trump in particular, to fail in fighting Iran.

NOpe, you're splitting hairs in a desperate attempt to be "right".

So, do explain how the 5 aircraft "struck" were significantly damaged or unserviceable.

The only claim made was "struck".

Your ridiculous thrashing around is pointless.

And my point was that statement was irrelevant. It's like saying you lightly bumped into the car ahead of you at a light is a traffic accident.

Your interp means nothing. Trump is everything when he says five aircraft were struck. Five too many, southbean.

This thread is about the fascist wannabe dictator Crazy Trump, suppressing the news that is not favorable to him.
