The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Your brethren here don’t consider them to be credible and always say they distort the news.

It's not whether "my brethren" consider right-wing media to be credible or not - after all, the folks here already accurately perceive that the Trump "peace plan" isn't something that Ukrainians are going to accept. They're not going to blame Ukraine or Zelenskyy for refusing it.

The question is whether Trump's base will blame Ukraine for not taking the deal. And that will depend on how the right-wing media cover the issue. If they falsely present the peace plan as something that Ukraine ought to have accepted, that it's Ukraine's fault that deal didn't come to pass, then Trump's base will continue to believe that as well. You and I both know that would be distorting the news, as my brethren claim the right-wing media does.

Will they do the right thing and not distort the issue? We shall see.
