Fuck WGN

So WGN tells viewers to "Call this number" if they have information on the Officer Involved Shooting in 011 last night.

Problem is, the number is to COPA.

Bigger problem is that they didn't even bother to put up the number to Area Detectives to at least hint at impartiality (which we all know they don't have anyway.)

The major cause of today's Societal problems are the concentration of Media ownership into very few hands.

Obama legalized propaganda with the signing of H.R. 4310 into law in 2012.

WGN ownership:
Nexstar Media Group is America's largest local television and media company with 196 full power stations (including partner stations) in 114 markets addressing nearly 63% of US television households and a growing digital media operation. Nexstar's platform delivers exceptional local content and network programming to inform.

Headquartered in Irving, Texas, Nexstar Media Group, Inc. is the largest local broadcast television group in the United States and one of the world's leading diversified media companies.

The founder, chairman, president and CEO of Nexstar is Perry A. Sook. He also owns the Tribune National Marketing Company, LLC at 435 N Michigan Ave Chicago.

Maybe it was intended. Even if you didn’t know how to reach the detectives, everybody knows you can reach the police by calling 911.

I have faithfully watched the very talented and genuine people on the WGN Morning Show for years. They have always swam upstream against the norm and seemed to call out stale formats. Since they were purchased by the new Sinclair Corp they seem to have stuck to following the Liberal/Marxist script leading us to anarchy and an eventual race war. Im done,every single story seems to have an anti police slant and an “Anarchy is Cool” vibe.

i grew up with wgn a long time now. pitiful what a bunch of woke assholes theyve turned into. any real news they spew is far left lies and all the rest of their programming is third string low rent imbiciles yucking it up over sophmore humor. read on here tonight man shot in portland had thin blue line patch on his shorts and some religious thing on his hat. while listening to cbs 560 am tonight they said the man had far alt right radical insignia on his clothes signalling i guess that it was ok for the commie anarchists to shoot him. when did blue lives matter become an alt right hate group ? the media is complicit and trump was right when he said the msm is the enemy of the people. all this shit goes unchallenged, just another white nazi shot i guess. cant wait until antifa turns its sights on the msm for not being woke enough. and they will, its just a matter of time. i gotz your dimmer switch right here lori.

August 28, 2020 - (Chicago Tribune) WGN America to launch ‘News Nation’ on Tuesday, aiming to transform the house that Bozo built into the next CNN. WGN America, the erstwhile home to Bozo and Andy Griffith, is set to reinvent itself as a cable news network with the Tuesday launch of “News Nation,” a prime-time newscast that pledges to deliver unbiased reporting. - Nexstar Media Group

Because we all know how “unbiased” CNN is. What a crock of shit! Honestly, our family and friends stopped watching WGN a long time ago when it became apparent that they were becoming more and more biased in their reporting and nothing more than the left nut in the ball sack of the Tribune. Haven’t watched it in awhile but are they still just stealing stories from the internet and passing them off as their own investigative reporting!? The house that Bozo built is still full of clowns.

When I am out there standing a post we see the WGN reporters or camera men......

They love to start filming without any concern for their safety or others!

When asked to move they start with the rights of the media Crap.......

Later we watch them running from the peaceful protestors, until the come back and
want uniforms to enforce the law to protect the WGN crew!

Guess when they they get hurt or killed by some protestor it will be a media story......
But now there is no news story?

Ben Bentley is a Channel 7 reject and Patrick Elwood is a 32 reject, that's bad!!! Potash on Back Story should be retitled Re-hashed stories.

Before I speak to my Democrat brother, I check MSN beforehand. That way, I already know the short, half-sentence slogan that he will shout out when he brings up Trump. Yes, the situation in Chicago is Trump's fault according to my brother. This week, if Trump comes up, he will screech, "we have 180,000 people dead from Covid"! He only cares because he heard it from Maddow.
One of Biden's top advisors gave an interview this weekend. When he was asked a direct question about Biden's economic policy, he quickly screeched "we have 180,000 dead people because of this President".

Years ago a talking head at WGN, who has since left, was drunk and requested our help. Her complaint was bogus, however we had to listen to her drunken rant about the only thing police officers do is "beat black people".

I'm not shocked that her co-workers at WGN feel the same.

$16 mil operation like COPA too lazy to post flyers on street light poles?
I know they work from home due to the flu closing they’building but the phone bank they installed in Mumbai is working at capacity.

Is WGN too lazy to verify phone numbers or did they know it was COPA’s Hotline?
Did WGN just simply take a side, did COPA solicit WGN to be a partner?
COPA was given an interfering investigative authority that’s unchallenged, besides nitpicking for uniform, appearance and demeanor infractions. Why is COPA being given access to investigative materials, like reports, supps, statements, audio/video, even at times before CPD ?
Because politicians have given permission to them (untrained civilians on a movement mission) in order to develop opinions and conclusions.
That shouldn’t be allowed under chains of evidence.

The media is an enemy of our Republic and should be treated as such. They are all in with the plan for a new world order in which this country is brought down in stature in order to fit in with third world countries.

Politicians gutted our country's industry by enacting policies causing companies to move south of the border or overseas to Chi-na as part of the plan. These high paying jobs were replaced by low skill service industry jobs like burger flippers, baristas, or Wallmart greeters, gutting our middle class, and creating a permanent underclass dependent on the government to get by.

There is an overwhelmingly negative portrayal of President Trump in the media because he wants to reverse the damage that has been done to this country by this leftist plan. President Trump is working on building a wall to seal the southern border, and renegotiating unfair agreements with other countries made by former politicians that put our country at a severe disadvantage, in an attempt to lure industry back to the United States. You would think these actions by our President were a good thing, but not according to the media, and those in government bent on tearing down this nation.

The left knows they are losing and thus they are pulling out all the stops by creating a fake pandemic with the Wuhan/ Covid 19 scare, and by loosing their shock troops of BLM and Antifa in our democratic controlled cities while tying their police forces hands. These democratic politicians are allowing mayhem and destruction to occur as their last ditch effort to get President Trump out of office. This is a fight for our country to the death. Either they hang or we will hang.

Search your DVR for WGN’s half-hour promo for News Nation: the program name is "Your News. Your Nation. The making of NewsNation". It’s a huge commitment, and the scale of it impressive. Over and over and over again they talk about how they’re going to give unbiased balanced news. But this is the same operation that lets Mike Lowe spout pure far-left screeds most nights.
