Hey, @natashavc, Sorry Your Dishonest Scott Walker Smear Got Breitbarted

Posted on | February 28, 2015 | 51 Comments

Breitbart (verb) — to expose dishonesty or corruption in a way that destroys the elite media’s preferred narrative, especially when done by a citizen-journalist.

Example: “Brian Cates totally Breitbarted that Walker smear.”

20 seconds of Googling would have cleared up what was going on here, but it was apparently more important to some to rush a piping hot new Walker smear out the door before doing any due diligence.

Jezebel’s “senior political reporter” Natasha Vargas-Cooper got Breitbarted, exposed as a dishonest and corrupt partisan hack, by a guy who did 20 seconds of Googling. Darleen Click:

“But hey, facts don’t matter when a White Patriarchal Werewolf must be defeated at all costs!”

Feminists and Democrats have so much in common — no standards, no integrity and no shame. Their sole principle is the selfish pursuit of power. Somebody should write a book about this.

    Is there a difference between lesbian feminist, a Marxist feminist or an ordinary LYING feminist? They are all seriously deranged!

    Semantically, yes.

    In practice, no.

    The difference between semantics and practice, while vast in practice, is rooted in “the essential paradigm of creating partially situated
    identities out of actual or potential social reality in terms
    of canonical forms of human contact, thus renormalizing the phenomenology
    of narrative space and requiring the naturalization of the intersubjective
    cognitive strategy, and thereby resolving the dialectics of metaphorical
    thoughts, each problematic to the other, collectively redefining
    and reifying the paradigm of the parable of the model of the metaphor.”

    It seems that every day the real Daily Beast is becoming more like Evelyn Waugh’s fictitious Daily Beast from his 1938 novel Scoop. I’m pretty sure this is where our sadly real version The Daily Beast got it’s name.

    Waugh wrote of the character Wenlock Jakes a “star reporter” –
    Why, once Jakes went out to cover a revolution in one of the Balkan capitals. He overslept in his carriage, woke up at the wrong station, didn’t know any different, got out, went straight to an hotel, and cabled off a thousand-word story about barricades in the streets, flaming churches, machine-guns answering the rattle of his typewriter as he wrote, a dead child, like a broken doll, spreadeagled in the deserted roadway below his window — you know.

    RSM,
    Remember the last time Ms. Natasha Vargas-Cooper committed journalism?
    http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/02/ken-silverstein-the-intercept-115586_Page3.html#.VPIM3-EbKXd
    “In my final months, I helped edit and write a few stories for The
    Intercept with Natasha Vargas-Cooper about the wildly popular podcast
    Serial. Natasha landed two key interviews with figures in the murder
    case and she wrote a series of stories that I helped edit and shared a
    co-byline on two of them. The stories challenged, directly and
    indirectly, the narrative laid out in the unexpected podcast hit by the
    makers of This American Life. The podcast’s narrative followed
    the investigation and prosecution of Baltimore teen Adnan Syed, who was
    convicted and is serving a life sentence for the murder by strangulation
    of a teenage girl (and who dumped her body in a park in Baltimore). Serial’s thesis was straightforward: Syed did not get a fair trial.”
    Yea all her lefty friends dropped her like a hot potato because she showed the American way was right with justice in this case.
    So it would only make sense for a disgraced reported to head to Jezebel and try to rebuild her creed via a hack job like this.

  8. Daniel Freeman
    February 28th, 2015 @ 2:24 pm

    Disgraced by doing her job right, so she had to do it wrong to make up for it? That’s a sick industry.

    February 28th, 2015 @ 2:35 pm

    Remember its left wingers in the industry. So yea anything that shows how the “Man” did it right, well that is wrong. Since its the wrong “Man” they are supporting.

    Another stellar quote from the same article:
    “I remember during one meeting speaking up out of exasperation because we
    were so far behind schedule, saying something like, “Journalism is not
    rocket science,” meaning, “For God’s sake, writing and editing and fact
    checking and posting stories on a website is really a pretty easy thing
    to do.” And Pierre, clearly annoyed, replied by saying something like,
    “No, it’s not, but it is rocket science to find an audience.” True to a
    point, but you can’t find an audience without posting stories for people
    to read.

    editing and fact checking aren’t rocket science? Then pray why does so many reporters have problems with those simple things.

    So… it’s okay to lie if you can blame the person you’re lying about for not explaining himself well enough? For bad optics?

    Sort of like it’s okay to call a woman a slut because of the “bad optics” of wearing revealing clothing? Hey, not MY fault she had bad optics!

    It is true that they don’t have to be smart, but many actually are. They’re just too lazy. They don’t care whether their narrative fits reality, whereas a rocket that doesn’t fit reality will get you fired.

    RSM: I’ve been following your work ever since the Kate Hunt debacle. The amount of research you put into your articles is astounding and I can’t thank you enough for doing the dirty work so that us readers can be informed without completely losing our minds – the deeper you look into this rabbit hole the more it fucks with your mind, I’ve tried and had to slow down because it really pulls a number on you as you realize how far this thing goes. I will definitely be buying your book as soon as I can. Keep at it sir, you’re doing God’s work.

    And now…she apologized after asserting she wouldn’t.

    Once again, the Throne of Skulls is triumphant. And once again, the victim offered itself up. People ask what it is about Scott Walker. The answer is simple: Flat out, Walker wins. And he does it without ever losing his cool, his message, or his sense of what he believes in. That’s a good thing. And I can accept some philosophical difference with a guy whose honest about the distinctions…and wins.

    […] Nice Deb has video from Saturday, and wonders “I don’t know how he has been able to keep his own sanity after immersing himself into the creepy and disturbing world of radical feminism.” I don’t know how he could stand it either, I could barely get through the back cover of one of the 52 feminist textbooks he subjected himself to. I joke that I read his posts on the subject as a way of reaffirming my own sanity, but this is a serious subject. As Stacy noted “They want to change the way we think of basic concepts of masculine and feminine.” They want to deny nature and biology. They say that female heterosexuality is abnormal, that it’s a PTSD response to “the heteronormative patriarchy.” Seriously, these people are nuts, but they have a ton of influence. Watch out for them. […]
