I'll gladly give you that BLM protests are "mostly peaceful", but they just so happen to be the only protests that become riots. I've yet to see a single example of gun-rights activists commit ANY sort of violence during their protests. In Pennsylvania they even openly carried their guns to show that their guns can be out in the open and cause no violence despite what leftists claim guns do. Give me one example of right-wing protests devovling into riots. Charlottesville wasn't a right-wing protests fyi, it was a fascist protest.
Luke F I imagine most of the economical shortcomings you (and I, myself,) am angered by in our times are the result of corporatism, that parasitical tumor upon the free market. The corporation does not exist without the state, and I think we'd both agree they suck in their entirety.

It IS filled, but you're not going to see it on television, or in print, or on Facebook, Google, or Twitter. If you think censorship in the United States is new, it's not. There were a few years where Google wasn't censored, but it didn't last long. Facebook and Twitter have always been censored.

Just saw a Facebook “fact check” about a story. The story was about a woman who got arrested for not wearing a mask. The fact checkers said “well ACKSHUALLY she was arrested for criminal trespassing”. What they didn’t mention in the headline was the criminal trespass resulted in her refusing to leave after being told to put on a mask or leave. So yes, she was arrested for not wearing a mask, just not in the very specific way they said.
I tend to agree with the trespassing. While I think the mask rule is stupid, the restaurant has a right to their property and their rules as long as they are not being discriminatory. The law doesn't force you to wear a mask, but it also doesn't protect you if you refuse to leave someone's property

TheVideomaker2341 This isn’t an accurate analogy. First of all, let’s agree that when it comes to the total city area, of New York, it’d be 100% accurate to say the city is mostly peaceful if only one bomb exploded in Times Square. So if it’s a truthful statement, why would it not be appropriate to say that? Because the rest of the city was never in question if you’re talking about Times Square, so it makes it sound as if you’re downplaying the seriousness of the issue. (Your analogy is actually exactly analogous to saying White Lives Matter or All Lives Matter in response to Black Lives Matter. The fact of the statement is not in question, but you sound like you’re downplaying the actual subject being discussed.) Compare and contrast to a scenario where someone is asking whether or not there have been more bombs set off in the city. Now it would be appropriate to say, “No, there hasn’t been more bombs, the city is mostly peaceful aside from this incident.” So why is it appropriate for journalists to state the fact that the protests are mostly peaceful? That’s right, it’s because it is in question whether or not they are peaceful or if most of the protestors are there to incite violence or not. There is a running narrative you will see even in this comment section that most of the protesters are violent, when the facts on the ground are that they are mostly peaceful with a few hooligans *on both sides* hijacking and taking advantage of the opportunity to stoke division and hatred. Most people don’t have a nuanced understanding of politics because they only listen to one news source and can’t look at things objectively or from more than one side. It’s important to find that nuance when it comes to controversial subjects like this. Controversy doesn’t happen spontaneously, it’s because two side have a different understanding of the facts, and it’s important to understand where all sides are coming from.

How about Trump receiving his THIRD Nobel Peace Prize nomination? Yeah, I had to resort to an Australian news source to learn that myself. That’s quite important and impressive. All these crazy people negate ANY thing remotely honest about Trump. It’s Flippin bizarre. Stossel should know...HE came directly from reporting amongst those same “reporters” of which he’s speaking about. This insanity HAS TO STOP.
That is a fallacy and you know it. A relationship is two people. There were 7000 people surveyed and 7 percent were not peaceful. Stop being disingenuous.
@@samuelbekele3601 it's actually not statistically fallacious to compare an average to an average. It's a bit disingenuous to compare one-on-one violence to tens or hundreds-on-one violence, though.
Honestly, I believe the media swing left because left=change. Conservative, by definition, means status quo. The left is the opposite to that, and that means change. They feel it is improvements, but that is simply a matter of opinion. The point is, though, that status quo is not news worthy. Change is something to talk about. Therefore media is, by default, going to be left leaning, because they report on things that are out of the normal/constant. The real issue is that the media today is MAKING the news. By saying they are unbiased, but actually not reporting in an unbiased way, they sway public opinion to support the minority viewpoint. This then turns a small, local and rare event into looking like something 50% of the people support. That then gets more people to believe in that minor viewpoint and thereby making it into an issue that comes up more and more. It gives them more to report on. They create more of the news they report on. The media is the real problem, not because they lean left, but because they aren't told what they are doing is wrong.
@@jimkid1392 Its not that simple. Yes money plays a role here *it always does* but at the same time controlling what people think is paramount when you have an agenda.

~ Mr. Stossel....you should have been the moderator for the debate between Trump and Biden. *You are truly an honorable journalist and probably a great moderator.* My hat off to you.....
At this point, I don’t believe there are any undecided voters. Those on the left, and those on the right, are dug in, no debate or news story is going to sway anyone’s opinion. it’s turned into a giant shit show, and condoning riots and attacking police is never acceptable, who could have predicted the public would not take to them favorably? When I was in school, long, long ago, we had to read Orwell’s 1984. I thought it was the most boring book I’d ever read! But now, now I know why it was required reading.

Yeah. And World War Two was "mostly" peaceful.
Megan Lockhart
Indeed. Most people contributing to the war effort weren’t shooting, and even the soldiers on the frontline weren’t shooting most of the time.
ObviouslyKaleb Copy-pasting an earlier comment that also applies here: This isn’t an accurate analogy. First of all, let’s agree that when it comes to the total city area, of New York, it’d be 100% accurate to say the city is mostly peaceful if only one bomb exploded in Times Square. So if it’s a truthful statement, why would it not be appropriate to say that? Because the rest of the city was never in question if you’re talking about Times Square, so it makes it sound as if you’re downplaying the seriousness of the issue. (Your analogy is actually exactly analogous to saying White Lives Matter or All Lives Matter in response to Black Lives Matter. The fact of the statement is not in question, but you sound like you’re downplaying the actual subject being discussed.)
Compare and contrast to a scenario where someone is asking whether or not there have been more bombs set off in the city. Now it would be appropriate to say, “No, there hasn’t been more bombs, the city is mostly peaceful aside from this incident.”
So why is it appropriate for journalists to state the fact that the protests are mostly peaceful? That’s right, it’s because it is in question whether or not they are peaceful or if most of the protestors are there to incite violence or not.
There is a running narrative you will see even in this comment section that most of the protesters are violent, when the facts on the ground are that they are mostly peaceful with a few hooligans *on both sides* hijacking and taking advantage of the opportunity to stoke division and hatred.
Most people don’t have a nuanced understanding of politics because they only listen to one news source and can’t look at things objectively or from more than one side. It’s important to find that nuance when it comes to controversial subjects like this. Controversy doesn’t happen spontaneously, it’s because two side have a different understanding of the facts, and it’s important to understand where all sides are coming from.
I wish this guy had more viewers.
This video helped red-pill my mom. Thank you, for all your work, John!!!
I for one am sick of propaganda "news".
Propaganda to Americans is like water to fish. Ever since Operation Mockingbird, the CIA has controlled the news media.
@@psychegoddessoflight9358 what exactly is propaganda
Thank you John for being an HONEST voice crying out in the wilderness!!! 🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🙏🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🙏
I grew up reading The NY Times and watching CNN ...I now have gotten rid of both,so blatantly and disgustingly biased towards the Left.
Stossel is the man, I can watch him for hours, he’s like a new vsauce for me of information
D-Day was mostly peaceful in the hours before the landing!
Thank you Mr Stossel. I am so grateful that I found your channel! Producing this content and walking the line without setting off a land mine could not be easy while delivering the message that needs to be received by the general public. I am very grateful to you in possibly more so to your staff. Excellent work all of you!!!

Stossel is one of the best reporters ever. Unbiased and completely fact based.
How about Trump receiving his THIRD Nobel Peace Prize nomination?
Yeah, I had to resort to an Australian news source to learn that myself.
That’s quite important and impressive.
All these crazy people negate ANY thing remotely honest about Trump.
It’s Flippin bizarre.
Stossel should know...HE came directly from reporting amongst those same “reporters” of which he’s speaking about.
This insanity HAS TO STOP.
which Australian news source
Subscribed!! Thank you for being one of the few journalists with integrity!
Calling riots “mostly peaceful” is like saying an abusive relationship is “mostly peaceful”.
"Sorry you have a tumour, but mostly harmless"
That is a fallacy and you know it. A relationship is two people. There were 7000 people surveyed and 7 percent were not peaceful. Stop being disingenuous.
@@samuelbekele3601 Not at all. Did you learn a new word today? disingenuous
@@samuelbekele3601 it's actually not statistically fallacious to compare an average to an average. It's a bit disingenuous to compare one-on-one violence to tens or hundreds-on-one violence, though.
@@samuelbekele3601 The same report called CHAZ peaceful were multible people died so I am sure that the percentage is even higher then 7%
The morning of Sept 11th, 2001 was mostly boring.
Lmao!!
Thank you John. The truth will set you free.
My mom always felt that one of the reasons why the media swings left is because FDR bailed them out in the 30's and 40's.
The media is still pissed off over WW2 restrictions that kept them from leaking information to the world about Allied military operations.
Honestly, I believe the media swing left because left=change. Conservative, by definition, means status quo. The left is the opposite to that, and that means change. They feel it is improvements, but that is simply a matter of opinion. The point is, though, that status quo is not news worthy. Change is something to talk about. Therefore media is, by default, going to be left leaning, because they report on things that are out of the normal/constant. The real issue is that the media today is MAKING the news. By saying they are unbiased, but actually not reporting in an unbiased way, they sway public opinion to support the minority viewpoint. This then turns a small, local and rare event into looking like something 50% of the people support. That then gets more people to believe in that minor viewpoint and thereby making it into an issue that comes up more and more. It gives them more to report on. They create more of the news they report on. The media is the real problem, not because they lean left, but because they aren't told what they are doing is wrong.
I love how the left helps the right. I'm in the middle, but I will run like Hell to the right...the right thing to do...
Daniel Campbell then do
Spot on!
I'm really annoyed how these so called "fact checkers" are popping up more than ever to silence the people's voice.
Ikr. I laughed my ass off back when Hillary said "go to my website for fact checks"
"Mostly peaceful ", "Slightly violent " these inaccurate descriptions serve to mislead common people.
"It is NOT, generally speaking, UNRULY."
Blazing inferno burning in the background LOL
The most blatant contrast in a news video I’ve ever seen
Not only that but it was the police station burning in the background!
Journalism is akin to entertainment. There was a lawsuit a few years ago that explained that. Yet no one is mentioning that ruling
@Joseph Seibert Every business is about gaining more money. They are no different. It's their main focus and everything else is way down the mist.
@Joseph Seibert precisely. It is vastly different from then. The news doesnt have to inform you of anything.
@Sic Semper Tyrannis my apologies but I don't have it off hand. I had to dig around to even find it
@@jimkid1392 Its not that simple. Yes money plays a role here *it always does* but at the same time controlling what people think is paramount when you have an agenda.
@Sic Semper Tyrannis thank you. It's going to be a task to find it. Use search engines other than Google
Man this is great I have wanted to start a news company in the middle of the country for some time now. I’ll never be able to do it but maybe someone could! I think we just need to separate before something bad happens because I don’t want anyone to get hurt no matter what side you are from.
Peaceful secession
Thank you John God bless
I'm not from the US, as outsider i saw the same most media lean to the left
Show me where in the constitution protesters have to be peaceful
“The right of the people to *peaceably* assemble”
~ Mr. Stossel....you should have been the moderator for the debate between Trump and Biden. *You are truly an honorable journalist and probably a great moderator.* My hat off to you.....
The only people I know that watch CNN are old bitter shut ins.
Be nice to the mentally challenged cat ladies...
At this point, I don’t believe there are any undecided voters. Those on the left, and those on the right, are dug in, no debate or news story is going to sway anyone’s opinion. it’s turned into a giant shit show, and condoning riots and attacking police is never acceptable, who could have predicted the public would not take to them favorably? When I was in school, long, long ago, we had to read Orwell’s 1984. I thought it was the most boring book I’d ever read! But now, now I know why it was required reading.

This content like yours is deeply needed in Brazil. With CNN getting more and more popular and traditional journalism shifting towards opinion journalism in here, we're destined to the same abysm.

The Joseph Goebbels play book is a plank in the Democrats platform
Saying that the Protests were “Mostly Peaceful” is like a woman saying she’s a little bit pregnant.
More like "he's just a friend, don't worry"
Or a cheater that he was "mostly" faithful.
You're completely illogical, false analogy. A better analogy would be "93 percent of the forest didn't burn down". The few bad apples should be tried as individual. Authoritarian clowns are pushing for the suppression of free speech just like Occupy Wallstreet. Fishing for likes from similar minded people?
@@samuelbekele3601 Simpleton, the movement itself is violent. It's an authoritarian Marxist organization, and the leaders in Chicago and elsewhere endorse looting and rioting. Ignorant idiot.

We need more wonderful people in the media like John Stossel!
He was viciously, maliciously, horribly, shot 7 times in the back while peacefully resisting arrest while going for a weapon to kill the officers.
Cable news and shorter and shorter news cycles turned journalism into entertainment. It's no longer journalism.
John, I have long respected your journalistic rigor and integrity. This piece reaffirms your commitment to true, investigative reporting. Keep up the good fight, brother.

Everyone sees the bias. The sycophants just cheer them on.
I have always loved John Stossel. Life long fan.
A friend of mine used to watch CNN. He told me that he had to stop watching CNN because Trump was all they talked about. I haven't watched CNN in 20 years so I have no idea what goes on there.
The people who get degrees in journalism are not our brightest.
Thanks, Mr. Stossel. I started watching you when you were on ABC 20/20, so glad to see your channel on TH-cam. I've to being looking for 1000 thumbs up button so I can click because you deserve more than just one thumbs up 😂. You have given me hope that there still good journalists out there. Keep up the good work.
It's so funny that they clearly wanted to use a "mostly peaceful" narrative but couldn't stop themselves from filming the chaos.
It's funny are media tells everyone the world thinks trump is a joke, but if you watch the news broadcast from other countries the paint a very different picture. It's hard to find any of them putting him down.
