Don, all you need to do is reinstate the Fairness Doctrine, then the mean ol media will have to be fair to you! Do it today! Executive order!

Trump’s economic adviser: ‘We’re taking a look’ at whether Google searches should be regulated

You know, 2 Scoops, Google News has source preferences. If you’re like me, you have Fox News checked as “hidden.” Of course, I can understand that the technology may be beyond the reach of a person who can’t operate a speakerphone.

No rotary dial. Give the guy a break.

Who in the hell even uses a desk phone anymore? Mine exists merely as a forwarding device to my cell, which is picked up on a ring by my Bluetooth. A phone handset is sort of like paper money to me, do people even use them these days? If you do you’re stuck in 1964. Sheesh.

They are probably mad at its advocacy for the silver standard and for being an allegory for the Progressive Movment during the last Gilded Age.

“Will be addressed.” As it is in Russia, in China, In Turkey, in Egypt, in Iran . . . “Illiberalism” marches on . . .

Elected Republicans do.

Please oh please I hope some news channel has a panel to discuss this and somehow Santorum agreed to be on it.

jonney_5 · August 28, 2018, 2:32pm

However this is a positive development as it puts other actual news bits down a few pages…

Actually, you get the infamous “502 - Bad Gateway”.

playitagainrowlf · August 28, 2018, 2:36pm

Isn’t it obvious? They claim the whole thing was a “Witch Hunt”!

Trumpy Google with his pig, pig, piggly eyes.

dannysgrandma · August 28, 2018, 2:43pm

Anyone under the age of what won’t get this at all.

Is he going to try to outlaw Google now, for being mean to him?

ETA: I thought I was joking, but apparently not.

My mother used to sing this to me when I was a child, among with ‘Barnacle BilI the Sailor’ and “Three Little Fishies”, and numerous other little ditties of dubious taste and artistic merit.

dannysgrandma · August 28, 2018, 3:04pm

Both my parents sang that when I was little.
