Given that a significant number of people believe anyone with a Twitter account is a legitimate news source, we likely do need law enforcement involvement in elections. That doesn't mean there's actual election stealing going on, it just means people believe most anything they read online.

Who is a legitimate news source in your view?

There are too many to list.  "One random guy on Twitter"  is not one of them.

I just asked for one so I can be as well informed as you.

If "you" are is inclined to believe that elections are being stolen, in real time, at some arena in Philadelphia and that it's necessary to form a mob at that arena to save the election, there are much deeper issues than simply not having one news source.

How do you know a random guy on Twitter is wrong if you can't name a real source?

There's no connection between those two things.  The existence of real news sources (Fox, CNN, etc) has absolutely no impact on the trustworthiness of random Twitter users or the ridiculousness of mobs forming because one person claims something on Twitter.

How can Fox and CNN both be credible sources when they generally say completely opposite things?

 I'm not talking about the dishonest talking heads on TV, who editorialize every night.  I'm talking about the online version.  Fox and CNN, if you read comparable stories on their sites, will report the same details 90% of the time.

^^^^But, again, none of this has anything to do with running down to an arena, where votes are being counted, because some yahoo on Twitter claims something^^^

What about running out and burning and looting entire city blocks because CNN and MSNBC reported that Michael Brown was shot in the back while holding his hands up?

I don't recall CNN or any other news source reporting that.  If they did, that's pretty stupid.  It doesn't change anything that I'm saying, but it's irresponsible and stupid.  ALL news outlet get things wrong, are bias, etc.  That's why you shouldn't trust any one source completely, much less trusting anything you read on Twitter....  as Syncro found out regarding the charges against Paul Pelosi supposedly being dropped. Trusting Twitter for facts is foolish. It's even more foolish to trust anything an utter moron like Lauren Boebert says (which I suspect was his source)

Oh they did that and that is just one event they lied about and irresponsibly reported in dishonest fashion that resulted in riots, looting and other damage to people.  The problem is you ignore what the MSM does, which because of the large audience they speak to does much more damage than other sources, and single out a guy on Twitter.

Can you tell me your news source that has never lied or gotten things wrong and is unbiased?

Difference is Syncro immediately realized he made a error , took adult responsibility for posting misinformation and made amends to everyone for doing so. You know like sane reasonable Adults would do. 
But the child like adult on the board continues to SSDD about something that was in a Adult manner addressed.

There is no such thing but that has nothing to do with the issue of 90% of the media running the exact same daily narratives most of which are completely dishonest.

Well, pick a recent topic and let's compare a web story from CNN and one from Fox to see how similar they are.

Pelosi's husband charged with DUI

(CNN) House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband was arrested and charged with driving under the influence after being involved in a collision Saturday night, law enforcement officials said.

Paul Pelosi, 82, was arrested at 11:44 p.m. PT and charged with driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08% or higher, according to the Napa County Criminal Justice Network's public booking report. Both charges are misdemeanors.
TMZ was the first to report the arrest.

Pelosi was attempting to cross SR-29 when his 2021 Porsche was hit by a 2014 Jeep traveling northbound on the road, according to a collision report from the California Highway Patrol, which doesn't identify either driver as being at fault in the crash. Troopers were called to the scene just before 10:30 p.m., the report said.

There were no injuries reported in the crash and the Jeep's driver was not arrested, the report said.

CNN has reached out to the highway patrol and the Napa County Sheriff's Office for additional details.

Bail was set at $5,000 according to the booking report, and records indicate Pelosi was released Sunday morning.

"The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast," a statement from Drew Hammill, Pelosi's spokesperson, said. CNN reached out for an updated statement after the collision report was released.

The speaker was in Rhode Island on Sunday to speak at Brown University's commencement ceremony.

Paul Pelosi, a native of San Francisco, has been married to Nancy Pelosi since 1963. The two have five children.

LMAO thats a basic wire story every media outlet ran. Hell read the Fox version to the end they credit TMZ for breaking the story and basically ran what they reported.  Common every day stuff.  Not Political commentary . Thats a stretch by any sense of the word.  Lets pull some stories from 2020 on the " Mostly"  Peaceful Protests by Comparison.
