TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARCrooks and Liars:
Jon Stewart goes through talking head TV and finds some gems over the immigration debate. Bill Frist telling us that deporting 11 million people is “workable” was priceless in itself, but Lou Dobbs takes the cake.
I think in the heat of the battle some of the talking heads say the most ridiculous things to make themselves right.
Stewart: Lou, do you understand that N.Y. is a parade-based economy?
The storytellers of chaos tried to manipulate the political and media narrative in 2025, but independent journalism exposed what they tried to hide.
When you read Truthdig, you see through the illusion.
