Elon Musk dismantled a BBC interviewer over the obvious bias BBC has. For example, BBC never corrected the COVID misinformation it spewed. Never "showed the other side"Bbc has to be impartial so if they show one side they show the other. Most news has a subjective factor and it's a question of whether they try to eliminate bias or don't try. In the us now they don't try, unlike in the past when objective reporting was the goal.
They are ALL either "Left" or "Right" biased. A person has to watch BOTH, or NONE. Otherwise they are misinformed. It's pathetic what media has turned into.Elon Musk dismantled a BBC interviewer over the obvious bias BBC has. For example, BBC never corrected the COVID misinformation it spewed.

BBC has left bias.
Agree. I also think every person has bias. For example in science you can unintentionally bias an experiment based on how you think it's going to turn out. Similarly a camera man on the street makes the choice to shoot one thing and not another. So there is a built in bias based on past life and conditioning from society or whatever but also from what one expects to see. The key imo is are they looking for bias and actively trying to eliminate it. Damn rare to find that in US news these days, almost non existent.They are ALL either "Left" or "Right" biased.

For the record I watch none. I read the banter here to get a general idea how things are. I think I can safely say that things in America, at this time, are pretty messed up.
Gave up tv around 95-96' never miss it.Yeah I said the same thing when they canned ORiely and put Tucker in his place, however I doubt they have anyone of Tuckers size to replace him with. Gave up TV last year, dont really miss it.
America according to the founders accepted slavery and the slave trade, only male property owners could vote, and in most states women could not own property, sign contracts, and had no legal identity other than as wives or daughters of males, the real human beings. No thanks.As far as I'm concerned, America, as I believe it should be according to the founders, and has been, is coming to an end.
Ahhh, the good 'ol days! About the only thing missing was penicillin.America according to the founders accepted slavery and the slave trade, only male property owners could vote, and in most states women could not own property, sign contracts, and had no legal identity other than as wives or daughters of males, the real human beings.
Congratulations. Best troll I've seen on NWFA..Ahhh, the good 'ol days! About the only thing missing was penicillin.

Many of them were opposed to slavery and wrote about it as a blight on humanity and it needed to come to an end, but building a nation that could make it happen was step one. Let's not forget slavery has existed throughout the history of mankind and the founding fathers were born into that world, they did not create it.America according to the founders accepted slavery and the slave trade, only male property owners could vote, and in most states women could not own property, sign contracts, and had no legal identity other than as wives or daughters of males, the real human beings.

The founders got many things right, I believe. Perhaps the most important was they realized they could not envision future needs, and set up a constitution that could be amended, changed. They considered the Constitution and Bill of rights just the best they could do at the moment. They themselves were not Constitutional Originalists.
These rotten aspects of our Constitution were not invented by the US, incidentally. They were inherited from Britain, and those and worse were standard throughout Europe and even worse elsewhere. Slavery was accepted universally, for example. Africans captured fellow Africans from weaker tribes, kept many for themselves, sent many to the Atlantic coast for the Atlantic slave trade, and sent even more to the Arab world. The Arabs wanted eunichs, not intact males who could reproduce, so the males sent to the Middle East were usually castrated on the way. The survival rate from adult castration may have been 50% or worse. The capturing of slaves was all done by Africans, and the slave trade was controlled by them. Europeans could not do it because the average survival time of Europeans in Africa was less than a year before the era of quinine and antibiotics. The African slave trade had been going on long before the European settling of the Americas.America according to the founders accepted slavery and the slave trade, only male property owners could vote, and in most states women could not own property, sign contracts, and had no legal identity other than as wives or daughters of males, the real human beings.

I agree with paragraph 1. Not with Paragraph 2. No. It was not that women were uneducated. It very much was that the majority of men running things were against any kind of rights for women. Not any more so than Britain or Europe of that era. But not any less either. Paine explicitly brought up voting rights for women in his various writings and was fiercely opposed. And had education been the issue it could have been dealt with by a literacy test. These were common in Southern states after the Civil War, usually being enacted to prevent blacks from voting.Many of them were opposed to slavery and wrote about it as a blight on humanity and it needed to come to an end, but building a nation that could make it happen was step one.

Don't forget pay taxes. The whole women thing was not that they were anti women, it is just that most women back then were mostly uneducated and the nation they envisioned was to be to ran be educated people. We see the result of the ignorant masses voting today. We would probably be better off to require a civic test be passed before one is allowed to vote. Man or woman.
The Bill of Rights took years to be agreed upon just to make it work, again a stepping stone.
