There is no longer any universally accepted criteria for credible news anymore. Folks discount things like pulitzer prizes and shit. The only thing that folks like Trump and his supporters use, when judging a source, is whether or not they are saying what they want to hear.
Seriously, that is literally the ONLY criteria. Did they say Trump is good? They are great! Did they say Trump is bad? They are fake!
The result is that their views are entirely self contained. There’s no way to identify errors in their worldviews, because any evidence which would expose such errors is, by definition, itself an error/fake.
It’s all a misdirection campaign built on fake news by extreme left wing socialist chef news sources to try and discredit the good crew of Galactica. I will not allow such vile Cylon propaganda to go unchallenged!
If this wasn’t so embarrassing, to any American who feels any sentiment towards our society and who values at least to some degree any sort of appearance of rationality, maturity, and dignity, it would be hilarious.
Can’t we have it all? Because personally, I’m embarrassed, horrified, terrified and amused all at the same time.
That being said, even though I cheer the talented comedians doing stuff like this, I don’t think any parody or comedy sketch is ever going to be funnier than the real thing, with this administration. Nothing can be any funnier than Spicer himself, for me.
