No One Trusts You, Bro

No one trusts the mainstream legacy media for fair news coverage anymore.

One CBS News reporter, Tony Dokoupil, flat out admits it on air and is seemingly asking for a second chance from viewers.

But will people actually go back? Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

AI Streamer Now No. 1

An AI anime VTuber named Neuro-sama is now the most popular Twitch streamer in the world — and she’s not even real.

She also streams tirelessly 24/7 and probably doesn’t eat much.

Is THIS the future of streaming? Some other streamers seem to think so. It’s so over, man. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

Project Mockingbird: Not Gone

Project Mockingbird… the CIA’s secret project that infiltrated our news rooms and controlled our news cycles for decades is still alive and well. That’s just one of the many revelations from Kevin Shipp.

He’s a veteran of the CIA who’s been exposing the shadow government that essentially controls Washington DC. Here, Shipp talks about the reporters and news anchors who do the biding of the CIA. Here’s more from Clayton Morris on Redacted News.

Microsoft Isn’t Woke Enough?

Microsoft has become the gaming media’s punching bag ever since they dropped DEI, embraced AI, the CEO sucked up to Trump and something something Israel.

Remember when the games media would go out of their way to defend poor Xbox and Starfield from the mean ol’ right wing chuds? Yeah, game over man. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

How The CIA Controls The News

Meet the CIA’s favorite journo outlet, paid by USAID and set up by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

It’s called OCCRP, standing for the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project.

Here, Mike Benz, former cybersecurity expert with the U.S. State Department, discusses the OCCRP. The report is drawn from a private livestream he did for X subscribers earlier this year.

Journalists Rage Against AI

Video game journalists have a new boogeyman — generative AI being used in game development. The problem?

Pretty much EVERY studio is using it to speed up production. So good luck with boycotting pretty much everyone.

On the upside, maybe they’ll lay off cancelling people for political difference? Maybe? Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

Fired By Newsmax On Air!

Former Newsmax prime-time host Dennis Michael Lynch joins the program with a revealing conversation about his time at the network. Lynch recounts the shocking moment he was fired live on air and breaks down the internal dynamics that led to his ouster.

Netflix Wants Your Children

Netflix House is an interactive theme park like experience that has a lot of TV fans excited.

But their Terms Of Service are shady AF, and it reads as if they can steal your (and your children’s) biometrics to train their AI and use that info in perpetuity! What’s going on here, Netflix? Here’s more from Clownfish TV.

Lock ‘Em Up

Not the kids — the devices. Specifically, the social media programs. Australia has decided that the harm caused to young people by apps like TikTok, Instagram, SnapChat and all the rest far outweigh their benefits.

Should kids be kept away from social media? And perhaps more to the point: CAN THEY be kept away from social media? Here’s a new edition of The Right Angle, led by Scott Ott joined by Bill Whittle and Steve Green.

YouTube Purging Channels

Millions of YouTube channels have been deleted this year, with over 7 MILLION getting gone in the last quarter alone. YouTube’s official explanation is that those channels violated something and were mostly from Southeast Asia (aka India.)

But is that REALLY what is going on here? Has their AI moderation run amuck? Or is there something more sinister going on here? Is YouTube purging “dead weight” to get the platform ready to take on Netflix? Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
