Impeachment Is as Impartial as Adam Schiff. Mr. Schiff he wanted to be the attorney general under Hillary Clinton. Oops, that was a disappointment. No one in the country worked harder to protect Hillary than Adam Schiff. He’s every bit as trustworthy and honest as she is. Career aspirations and character… Schiff wanted to be … Read more

Facebook-Censored Social media, Shadow-banning

Is Facebook Throttling Our Content?

September 27, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Something strange happened this week. Our likes and follows continue to climb on Facebook, but out of nowhere reach, and interactions have dropped off a cliff. Hmmm, he says, what might cause that to happen?

Trump Challenger Joe Walsh Runs Into Media’s Racism Brick Wall – Should Probably Give Up Now

August 27, 2019 Steve MacDonald

I itemized some impressive things about former Congressman Joe Walsh Yesterday. Great scores from Club for Growth and AFP. But only days into his “run” what little hope he had could be doomed. By the way, he responded to charges of racism.

Is Google’s Section 230 Immunity at Risk as Execs Hide After Veritas Sting?

June 27, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Companies like Facebook and Google avoid prosecution for the content they traffic by claiming that they are carriers, not publishers. It protects them from copyright, libel, and slander suits for the things shared. Section 230 is their shield, but it could become a club used against them.

June 27, 2019June 25, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Nobody Covers (Up For) Maggie Hassan Like WMUR

June 22, 2019 Ed Mosca

This: Get it? The news, according to #FatLazyAndBiased at WMUR, is that the GOP are trying to make political hay out of Maggie employing two felons, not Maggie employing two felons. Here is how the Hill, hardly a right-wing media source, covered it: A second ex-aide to Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) has been charged in connection with … Read more

Student’s Trump Hats Blurred out in High School Yearbook Photo

May 27, 2019 Steve MacDonald

If you’ve ever watched the Ten Commandments – the original movie – Pharoh declared the name Moses be stricken from every record, tablet, stone, everywhere. The BC equivalent of “you’re dead to me.” This seems a lot like that to me.

Why is The Nashua School District Network Blocking GraniteGrok.com?

May 22, 2019 Steve MacDonald

We’ve been having some fun with the Nashua School District and the clown car they call their Board of Education. And maybe that’s why they’ve banned us. According to their network, it’s because we might be a blog or a forum. Okay, so why aren’t any of these other Blogs blocked as well?

Why Isn’t the Media Obsessing Over the Shooting in Denver?

May 12, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Notice anything different about the recent ‘School Shooting’ in Denver? It’s not all anyone on the left is talking about, for starters.

Will the Democrat Presidential Primary Please Pick Up the Nearest Bias Response Team Courtesy Phone.

Old white men are evil. Ask any college professors of gender identity studies. Or almost any college professor. They are descendants of evil, colonialist oppressors.

Trump Meets With Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey About What They Did to GraniteGrok (sort of)

April 24, 2019April 24, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Yesterday I published a reminder that GraniteGrok’s Twitter account was still blocked. The same day President Trump met with Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey over the question of Twitter-Bias.

We’re Still in Twitter Jail For Something NPR, AP and Others Reported on Twitter- Why?

April 23, 2019April 23, 2019 Steve MacDonald

In early April Twitter froze GraniteGrok’s account. Tomorrow will be three weeks. Why? Reporting on a vote in New Zealand to ban Automatic weapons violates their Twitter Rules. So, we’re not allowed to publish real news on Twitter?

Well, I guess we’ve joined a good club: Twitter has locked the GraniteGrok account

April 4, 2019April 4, 2019 Skip

(the female’s voice on most GPS units): “You have arrived!“. Yes, we have. Yep, that PC gaggle of speech totalitarians decided that we’ve broken some kind of rule. Frankly, I could care less – it seems every day a few dozen hundreds of Conservatives and Conservative sites get their Twitter accounts yanked so we’re in … Read more

Project Veritas: Insider Exposes Facebook Deboosting, Targeting, and Blocking of Conservatives

March 3, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Facebook owns the social media landscape. Not playing in their sandbox is a tough sell. GraniteGrok has seen a significant rise in traffic and engagement. From 30-50% of our traffic starts on Facebook. And traffic is way up. Could it be better? Probably. Are we subject to tactics meant to limit access to our content? Probably. But no … Read more

Local News in San Diego Exposes CNN’s Bias over Border Coverage

January 11, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Sorry for the double-tap on the Current Narrative Network (CNN). But a local news channel in San Diego shared a story on the air, calling out CNN for trying to make news instead of reporting it. Which is not news to us but it is news. As part of their coverage of the border fence debate, CNN decided … Read more

Arctic Sea Ice, and Google’s Search Results “Reality”

July 10, 2022November 24, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The Danish Meteorological Institute’s most recent data shows Arctic Sea Ice Extent rapidly approaching the 1981-2000 mean. Rapidly. But if you Google “Arctic Sea ice 2018” you will find a series of headlines on the subject of the 2018 arctic minimum. I didn’t search the annual arctic minimum. In the absence of other details “minimum” was … Read more

“Plastic Guns” – The 1980’s Want Their Gun-Grabber Hysteria Back

September 26, 2018August 12, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Have you heard about the “undetectable plastic gun”? The gun control lobbies call it is “tailor-made for terrorism.” The Washington Post reports that a state sponsor of terrorism is already attempting to obtain these guns. A Postcolumnist warns that the police “vehemently oppose the introduction of plastic guns into our armed society.” Newsweek predicts the NRA will face a member … Read more

Gallup Poll: Inaccuracy, Misinformation, and Bias in Media News Coverage

September 26, 2018June 23, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Gallup’s latest opinion poll adds another nail to the Media coffin. A growing majority believe it is biased.

Overall, U.S. adults estimate that 62% of the news they read in newspapers, see on television or hear on the radio is biased. They think the news media mostly provide accurate information, but still estimate that 44% of what they see is inaccurate. And they believe that more than a third of the news they see in these channels is misinformation — false or inaccurate information that is presented as if it were true.

Inspector General’s Report: Let There Be Bias

September 26, 2018June 18, 2018 Steve MacDonald

I doubt we will ever get around to plumbing the minutia inside IG Horowitz 568 page report on how the FBI handled the Clinton Email Investigation or their pivot to Trump. But we can pull and explore some of the bits the media is more likely to ignore, gloss over, or spin.
