View Full Version : Tribune propaganda, again?
1bigfrog 08-18-07, - 10:21 PM Dang...anyone read Thursday's Tribune "Age may decide PLP chief" Nah personally I cool with that head line...but the subheadline sayings "Christie, "wont" in quotes back anyone of his own generation"...what a load of bull...pure propaganda. Certainly for a Newspaper which supposed to be responsible for recording Bahamian history and report the News instead of sensational crap, they are definately doing the country an injustice...And to imagine they ga own the Guardian too, they ga make up news as they go along...anyting to sell a paper and to promote their agenda.

Why would you say they are making situation up, alot of person were put in place by perry in there party for such a case that is why perry feels confident that he could win the leader again if they hold a convention.But the reality is that he is hoping they gain some strenght in the election courts but it's starting to look dismal for them. If you know persons in the PLP party of credibility then you would have know this unless they are misleading you as they are trying to do the bahamas with half truths.
And if you want to get alittle technical the guardian was a PLP paper so why none of there so call friends look to assist with the money problem they had.
Charles carter is thinking now of starting his own paper why didn't he but in the guardian,all of them are jokers and it just that the Carron believe in bussiness.
canewry 08-18-07, - 10:56 PM Buey, you aint answer your boy question...
he was talking about a particular article and whether the Tribune was bias in writing it...not saying that they were...but dang...answer something in regards to that topic...dread.
is it an editorial or a news item? Bahama Journal got all kinds of messed up editorials (mostly anti FNM and anti US) and such so why the Tribune cant have a couple? Whats good for the goose is not good for the gander? :(
juz asking :shaky:

Ohhhh! Das why they were the last online new paper to report the FNM has won the May 2nd election! The truth is they didn't want to. I always knew something was up with that paper ya know. After election I notice Nassau Guardian has reported it and The Bahama Journal didn't. I thought this was rather unusual for an 'always updated' online source of news:sarcastic
Alien 08-19-07, - 07:19 AM is it an editorial or a news item?
The entire Tribune, whether it is editorial or front page, is wrought with that type of reporting.
Bahama Journal got all kinds of messed up editorials (mostly anti FNM and anti US)
Prove both.
and such so why the Tribune cant have a couple?
The Tribune has a couple, and it has the entire paper. If they could print anti-PLP stuff in their classifieds, they would.
Whats good for the goose is not good for the gander? :(
Well, you still have to prove the Journal in being anti-US and anti-FNM. In fact, the journal and love 97 has on more FNM guests and opinions in their paper than does the Tribune. You know why? Because the Tribune is too busy bashing the PLP, to push the FNM the way they would like to.
:shhh:
With this, the Tribune has never spoken of the PLP in any good light. But, I can easily find dozens of articles by the Journal, who praise and bash both sides equally. Moreso than that of the Guardian as of late.

NOBODY KNEW. Until the count was official. With that, the Journal allways, as a good newspaper does, waits to print the right thing.
The election was close GB, no one wanted to print the wrong thing. And, as we see, 3 cases are in the election courts, and may more should have went in as well.
12play 08-19-07, - 11:05 AM I d not understand the PLP cultists; Has the former PM come out and deny the stuff that has been appearing in the Tribune? What about Alfred Sears? Shane Gibson was by far the most productive and active Minister in the Christie Administration, so Christie supporting Gibson as a potential leader before Gibson's problems is quite believable. Sears is perhaps most like Christie than anyone else who served in the Christie Cabinet. Sears is smart, thorough, and not nearly as rabid as even Christie himself. The Tribune story sounds plausible to me, and unless and until the right honorable former prime minister releases a statement to the public stating otherwise, I believe the Tribune.

lol at PLP cultist...do you belong to any cult...sounds so?
So, are you saying that if Christie comes on and refute the claims of the Tribune as mistruths and lies, then the Tribune owes the Bahamian people an apology for purposefully misleading the Bahamian public in order to sell more papers?
Certainly you read all the operative words like 'may,' 'sources say' 'could.'
The Tribune doing guess work. They found a topic they like, saw that it can be plausible...created some conspiracy theories, made up some sources...and put it out to the public as a potential truth.
Then leave it to history to see if they were writing about the truth or not...We all know how leaders of particular parties come about...there is a mass convention and people vote for who they want...this thing the Tribune wrote about was to get people's emotions running and to agitate particular political parties.

These things are not worthy of a response. As it is the Tribune making up allegations. And, if people took them to court, they would say "the PLP is anti-free speech" and all dat other shed you talk about in regards to protecting your favourtie spin doctors.
:shhh:
For example, who in the bloody hell dreamed up the Christie and Sears issue. My God, why is that an issue, even before we discuss the truth or whether or not they should waste time denying it.
First, if the deny it, so what. Second, if they do deny it, would it matter to some of these people who believe it?
