SPLC Guts Staff As “Journalism” Collapses

I’m glad that I was too busy to react to this story.

The dominos have continued to fall over the past few days with the Stanford Internet Observatory shutting down and more news about the mass buyouts and layoffs at The Daily Beast. This comes in the wake of VICE going bankrupt and mass layoffs at Media Matters and BuzzFeed.

Democracy might even die in the darkness at The Washington Post:

FOX News:

Washington Post publisher and CEO William Lewis had a blunt message for his staff during a tense meeting following the sudden ouster of executive editor Sally Buzbee, according to the paper’s own reporting. 

“We are going to turn this thing around, but let’s not sugarcoat it. It needs turning around,” Lewis told the paper. “We are losing large amounts of money. Your audience has halved in recent years. People are not reading your stuff. Right. I can’t sugarcoat it anymore.” …

Kat Abu at Media Matters is out of a job.

Michael Edison Hayden is apparently out at the SPLC.

Taylor Lorenz wasn’t exaggerating in that video about the death spiral of “journalism.”

  1. “. Your audience has halved in recent years”

    It should have gone to zero, 50 years ago, if Americans had any judgement.

    “Taylor Lorenz wasn’t exaggerating in that video about the death spiral of “journalism.”

    The quotes on ‘journalism’ are well warranted.
    The trash they publish is verbal sewage.

    People such as yourself, Ryan Dawson, redice, the right stuff and others are doing real journalism.

  2. I just hate Taylor Lorenz.
    I don’t know who I hate more, Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow, Joy Behar, Sharon Osbourne, Whoopi or Taylor.
    Since when did the corporate legacy media hold corporations, government and the military accountable?
    Is she from some alternate universe or something?
    They’re not journalists, in the main, they’re propagandists and apologists for woke neoliberal imperialism and Zionism.
    Grassroots, independent journalism is where it’s at, the dinosaur media needs to die.
    Fox needs to go too, Tucker was the only thing that wasn’t completely worthless about Fox.

    • Faux News fired anyone who stepped too far out of bounds. They’ve got millions of people conned into believing they’re some kind of accurate, alternate news source.

    • It is indeed a sight to behold-all the above names are highly paid employees of gigantic, internationally interconnected corporations yet they actually have the chutzpa to go daily in front of a large audience and shamelessly pretend they are edgy, independent, investigative journalists (another sight to behold is that a large portion of their audience actually believes this is so).

  3. Soooo, the Lügenpresse is finally dying. Good!, stick a fork in them, it’s about time. Now for CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, NYT, WSJ and WP to go tits up. One can hope but they will never go bust, at least as long as the GloboHomo Shopping Mall Empire is in business.

    They are their Ministry of Truth, constantly spreading lies, part of the essential, irreducible GloboHomo Shopping Mall Empire that will get funded, even at reduced levels, until GloboHomo itself goes bust.

  4. I think we should save our rejoicing and instead keep praying this anti-White anti-South hate organization is completely torn down and its hostile bunkers destroyed. This arrogant/wicked/ anti-family/woke/Marxist/Communist/etc enemy in our midst on Southern soil who dares to list/map all our Southern icons/monuments/memorials/etc and inviting the dregs of society who hate the South to rip them all down truly hates us.

    The question fairly stated is, Has the Constitution delegated to Congress the power to coerce a State into submission which is attempting to withdraw or has actually withdrawn from the Confederacy? If answered in the affirmative, it must be on the principle that the power has been conferred upon Congress to declare and to make war against a State. After much serious reflection I have arrived at the conclusion that no such power has been delegated to Congress or to any other department of the Federal Government. It is manifest upon an inspection of the Constitution that this is not among the specific and enumerated powers granted to Congress, and it is equally apparent that its exercise is not “necessary and proper for carrying into execution” any one of these powers. So far from this power having been delegated to Congress, it was expressly refused by the Convention which framed the Constitution.

    • Thanks! The South’s chance to peacefully regain independence is coming. Organize your family friends and neighbors.

  5. Thanks for the video selection on the “death spiral” of “presstitute” corporate journalism. The Elites will rely increasingly on AI robotic communication to create “news” to propagandize/misinform the workers, which will increase profits, because they won’t need to pay as many flesh-and-blood presstitutes to control what they write. The Elites don’t want self-supporting independent, real journalism to exist at all, and They don’t want the hoi polloi to be in the habit of reading and thinking for themselves.

    Another thought: As the Empire shifts to a HOT war mode, it will need to swing its domestic, “homeland” politics and political journalism toward the explicit Right, away from fake-left journalism such as SPLC, Daily Beast, etc.

  6. Gee, golly, gosh, gloriosky, a major segment of the American Public is getting tired of wokism (or illiteracy is more prevalent than supposed).

  7. It would be nice to live long enough to see that ugly brutalist architectural scar in Montgomery also known as the SPLC which is right down the street from Alabama’s capitol building. Terrible building. Terrible organization that appears to be partially supported and protected by Alabama tax payers.

  8. “Taylor Lorenz wasn’t exaggerating in that video about the death spiral of “journalism.”

    Awwwww, well roads need paving. The criminals they’ve defended to point of ridiculousness are too noble for that work anymore. Road paving desperately needs more female diversity anyway lol.

  9. Watch this Monkey with the tin cup, and little hat perform – funny !

    “Trump’s GA Prosecutor’s ABRUPTLY Stops CNN Interview After Question About Affair!”

  10. Looks like our good friend MEH got shitcanned for his pro-Palestinian stance, same with many of the others who were let go. Also looks like his pajeet dominatrix wife left him.

    MEH, pretty accurate description of that asswipes life and career.

    • MEH used to 9 a.m. drunk Twitter post as far back as he came onto my radar, around 2014. He would still be drunk/hungover from his posts the night before that went well into the early a.m.
      I think he was still under 30 at the time.
      He’s always been a self loathing miserable s#it.

  11. Patrick Cleburne has an interesting report on this “Night of the Long Knives” over that the $PLC cathedral of the Church of Woke. Two major points stand out.

    1. Seems the departments which were gutted were filled with those who objected to ‘muh’ Izrael’s’ depopulation program for Gaza.

    2. $PLC is really a financial racket pretending to be a charity (quelle surprise!).

    3. Looks like they just bought themselves a handy 2.5 acre parcel in Atlanta for a tidy sum of 10.2 million.

  12. I hear Catholic Inmigrant aid Society is hiring

    So are Lutheran immigrant aid society

    So is Hebrew immigrant aid society but apparently most Js wanting to work full time to replace us and earn big $ , they prefer to replace us using “ Christian “ charities

  13. NEWS: Nordic Resistance Movement has been classified has a terrorist organization in U.S, so Americans cannot have links with that organization….. This is ridiculous because Warren Balogh recently did a podcast with Nordic resistance movement.

    • Nordic type people have been targeted for extinction, so coming from the (fake)Diversity Empire, this is no surprise. I say fake because you can’t have true Diversity when you mix everyone together. You will end up with a mass of rootless mongrels with no culture other than materialism.

      • “you can’t have true Diversity when you mix everyone together. You will end up with a mass of rootless mongrels with no culture other than materialism”:

        TRUE diversity – so well said! True diversity could be called something like inter-national Multi-polarity. Yes, the unnatural, selfish “Invisible Hand of the Market” MIXES all kinds of “human resources,” while the NATURAL human ethnocentric tendency is to separate into pure, distinct kinds – and the godly tendency (of God in man) is to respect one another and treat others, of all kinds, as you would have them treat you.

      • “end up with a mass of rootless mongrels with no culture other than materialism.”

        There won’t even be materialism, it will just be a struggle for survival. like most 3rd world slums, the next meal will be the only imperative.

    • Regarding: “SPLC just purged that group” and “They SAY they are pro-palestinian; never ever believe a Jew”:

      I do believe it is possible for people of Talmudic heritage to be true socialists who really do (not just say they do) oppose Western imperialism with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, and respect the rights of all peoples, including the Palestinians who are the indigenous people of Palestine or Levant. Palestinians are true, lineal descendants of the original inhabitants of the Levant in Biblical times, whereas Ashkenazim and Sephardim are mostly related indirectly by religion and name more than by blood.

  14. Supply and demand. All j0rNaliSts want to serve the far far far Left of the market while cancelling, banning , censoring, and smearing the middle and God forbid anything to the right of center. There is only so much market for Marxist “news” and opinion. We all know Leftists and Normies who have lived their entire lives in the Leftist media bubble. They have never heard differing opinions. When my Normie Dad tells me that I need to read mainstream news to get a different perspective I tell him that no one in America needs to seek out Leftist (mainstream) opinion. We are bombarded with it. Its in every TV show, every movie, every song, every aspect of pop culture, every football game is steeped in feminist Marxism.

    • “the far far far Left of the market (…) We are bombarded with it. Its in every TV show, every movie, every song, every aspect of pop culture, every football game is steeped in feminist Marxism”:

      That is FAKE leftism that you are being bombarded with in “the market.” That “left” in name only (really anti-left) distracts from, covers up and never opposes the class and usury system. You can’t find ANY Left in the rotten system’s rotten TV, movies. songs, pop culture and sports. It is prevented from appearing – and not really by conspiracy but by the logic and nature (the way it works, being all about money) of the private profit system.

  15. “New Lines Magazine” is the future of mainstream “journalism,” crafting and telling lies nonstop for the benefit of the elites, under the fullest, most direct control by the elites. While mainstream media are losing funding and having to cut staff, the big money is flowing to new mainstream media including “New Lines (which is) a very new organization that was established only in 2020. Despite this, it has already become a key player in setting U.S. agendas worldwide, boasting a staff of more than 50 and working with over 150 contributors. Headquartered on the prestigious Massachusetts Avenue NW (some of the most expensive real estate in the world), it sits between foreign embassies and many of America’s most prestigious think tanks, a stone’s throw—metaphorically and physically—from the White House (..) New Lines joins an ever-growing list of (news media) organizations like Graphika and Bellingcat that present themselves as independent but are funded directly by the U.S. government. Former U.S. state and intelligence officials staff them and dutifully repeat U.S. government narratives and talking points. Through their reports and studies, groups like New Lines launder Washington’s narratives into the public domain, smuggled in under the guise of objectivity. Worse still, New Lines has been at the forefront of attacking and demonizing the few dissenting voices left in American society, their reports being used to further marginalize alternative media”: https://mronline.org/2024/05/11/from-propornot-to-new-lines/ If you thought press-titution was bad, this new presstitution is completely evil.

  16. in public school they’re still suggesting to your grandchildren that perhaps they would be more happy as a homosexual or by changing themselves into the opposite sex.

    we aren’t winning anything yet

  17. Of interest:

    This could explain facelift joe’s peculiar gait and hand posture and be contributing to his dementia.

    “Ongoing research, however, has revealed an unintentional and rather alarming consequence: Botox injections in the forehead and face rearrange the brain’s sensory map of the hands. What’s concerning is that clients typically come back for regular injections, because the limited paralysis the toxin induces lasts only two to three months. The ongoing question is whether repeated treatments over a period of years result in permanent changes to one’s brain .”

    “Altered cortical activation from the hand after botulinum toxin treatment.” Ann Clin Translational Neurol 2014, 1:64-68 by Arko Ghosh and colleagues

    Some members of congress have complained about joe’s addiction to plastic surgery.

  18. This is great news as regards the SPLC. The only way it could be better is a nuclear mini-burst right over its headquarters.

  19. The decline of civilization began the moment we achieved a level of prosperity sufficient to create the excess wealth to support people that write for a living.

    The moment you divorce your action from the reality of the time value of money, you lose all touch with the inescapable fact of resource scarcity. If you don’t produce value, eventually you won’t exist.

    Journalism produces value when it truly informs people of things they wouldn’t otherwise have known, but needed to in order to be informed citizens actively engaged in their day to day attempt to be productive. The moment “journalists” begin to manipulate people instead of inform them, their utility is lost because the audience immediately has to spend resources (time) to verify what they are being told because the average mid IQ person has a nearly perfect bullshit detector in their head called common sense. They may not know the flavor of bullshit or exactly where it is, but they know its there and resent it.

    Nobody that writes for a living is immune to this reality. Respect your audience or your audience will go somewhere else or just ignore you like a town cryer on a street corner. I feel no sympathy for these oxygen thieves.

  20. Behold the power of Christ and if you think it is not he who is vanquishing your enemies well then you just can not see.

  21. Another Johnny-Comes-Marching-Home song…

    Here is a song written about a Confederate soldier coming back from the war to his home — Yellow River. The song was written and sung by a young man, Jeff Christie, from Leeds in England. He was fascinated about the American Civil War and had read a lot about it. When it was released in 1970 the Vietnam Vets related to it and it was very popular. The songwriter doesn’t say the place Yellow River is located in the South but there is a Yellow River in Georgia.

    The SPLC can’t take everything away from us…

    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my blood, it’s the place I love

    Yellow River

    Lyrics

    So long boy, you can take my place
    Got my papers, I got my pay
    So pack my bags, and I’ll be on my way
    To Yellow River

    Put my gun down, the war is won
    Fill my glass high, the time has come
    I’m goin’ back to the place that I love
    Yellow River

    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my blood, it’s the place I love
    Got no time for explanations
    Got no time to lose
    Tomorrow night you’ll find me sleepin’ underneath the moon
    At Yellow River

    Cannon fire lingers in my mind
    I’m so glad I’m still alive
    And I’ve been gone for such a long time
    From Yellow River

    I remember the nights were cool
    I can still see the water pool
    And I remember the girl that I knew
    From Yellow River

    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my blood, it’s the place I love
    Got no time for explanations
    Got no time to lose
    Tomorrow night you’ll find me sleepin’ underneath the moon
    At Yellow River

    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow River, Yellow River
    Is in my blood, it’s the place I love
