WE ARE THE NEWS
Newsweek responds to my chart on the "BIG 6" media outlets attacking Q.
Below is a Newsweek story on a chart I created and posted two days ago as part of the cumulative total of MSM articles about Q:
After I posted my monthly report on MSM articles on Q, I was pretty blown away to discover the main chart in Newsweek the day after I posted it here. (See >>6027475 MSM articles on Q: 697 and counting, 3-31-19'''
Apparently it was picked up on Twitter, where it came to the attention of Newsweek writer Daniel Moritz-Rabson (one of the writers featured on the chart). Below are highlights of the article (also CAPPED) with my bracketed comments beginning in CAPITAL LETTERS.
PROMINENT QANON ACCOUNT POSTS PICTURES, NAMES OF JOURNALISTS 'ATTACKING Q'
BY Daniel Moritz-Rabson, 4/4/19
A prominent Twitter account promoting the Qanon conspiracy theory posted photos and names of journalists working for the "'Big 6' Media Platforms Attacking Q." The graphic showed reporters for The Washington Post, NBC and MSNBC, The Daily Beast, Right Wing Watch, the Daily Dot and Newsweek. (The author of this article was among those listed on the graphic).
[THE ARTICLE AUTHOR IS REFERRING TO HIMSELF HERE; he's credited with 4 articles on Q, fewer than most of those listed.]
The image was first posted on Twitter by account "CJTRUTH." It was then reposted by a an influential user going by the name "Joe M" whose following has grown substantially in recent months.
Joe M wrote posted that the image was "A nice graphic showing who the #Big6 have deployed to try push back the advance of #QAnon as it sweeps over them like a wave, sucking the media impressions away by the million. We are drawing them out of their holes into a public confrontation they cannot win."
The graphic misidentified at least two reporters. An image of right-wing provocateur Laura Loomer appeared under the name of Daily Dot journalist Ellen Ioanes, and the image accompanying Newsweek reporter Andrew Whalen depicted the incorrect inidividual.
[THIS IS NOT CORRECT. REPORTER ANDREW WHALEN IS CORRECTLY IDENTIFIED (see Cap)–unless there are two "Andrew Whalens" that work at Newsweek. ELLEN IOANES WAS INCORRECTLY ID'd BY ME because she has very few pics; the first I found was fuzzy and in the second, she's wearing huge dark glasses. The search also turned up a sharper picture with the words "Daily Dot–Ioanes' employer–underneath. It looks enough like Ellen Ioanes' pics that I thought it was her (it's really Laura Loomer, but looking a lot more demure than we usually see her). No one else noticed it was Loomer initially, but I wish I had. One of the disadvantages of working alone.]
Travis View, the co-host of QAnon Anonymous podcast, told Newsweek that the post was "part of the Q narrative that there is no legitimate criticism of QAnon, and 'media attacks' only happen because the MSM is scared and/or secretly believes that QAnon is true." View said that someone channel in 8chan tracks articles about Qanon "and writes an analysis of what they believe it means."
[THAT SOMEONE IS ME. SINCE I JUST PROVIDE STATS–and the articles themselves–TRAVIS VIEW CAN't SAY MUCH ABOUT MY IDEAS, because I really just list info on who writes the articles, the monthly themes, and the article links. Most of the links–which serve as titles–use such inflammatory language that it's obvious they are extremely slanted. He's smart to stay non-commital.]
