In another thread you created today you railed against intolerance, bias and lies yet “it’s alright to be deceptive” is a polarizing question.
The truth is Time admitted its error as soon as it discovered it - which in my book is honest and honorable. Yet you seem to believe that it was intentionally deceptive.

What Do you think; did Time purposely mislead its readers by knowingly using an incorrect image? Or, did they make a mistake and take ownership of it right away?


The problem is, you read the liberal play book where any lie is acceptable. Time did this on purpose to plant a fake image in voters minds, they lit it circulate around the world, then say oops. Wouldn’t ever buy another Time again and I cancelled my subscription. It is a liberal lying piece of shit rag.

This is a serious slap to Trump, but also a funny slap at Trump, who made a large fake copy of Time Magazine with him on the cover in the past and had it posted at his resorts. See: http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-time-magazine-with-trump-on-the-cover-hangs-in-his-golf-clubs-its-fake/2017/06/27/0adf96de-5850-11e7-ba90-f5875b7d1876_story.html?utm_term=.9d425389a63d

So I think that this "turnabout is fair play"!

So would the use of Hispanic people be a symbolic figure of all illegal aliens?


The symbolism is a child crying whilst Trump turns his back. I'm not saying that it's a true reflection of what's happening, but I think that most can see the message.

No I don't think that is what is being said. Any child could have been chosen and the message would have been the same! Where is your umbridge over the average of 4.5 lies per day by this President?

What fake news?

Just more proof that the fake news is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the DNC.
Like the photos of caged kids were what obummer was eagerly doing not the President.
Then the faked kids caged saying the President did it until exposed as a 3 sided cage on a sidewalk set up for the fake news to get closeups of kids posing then going out to protest.
As all Americans know it is all fake. What is really happening is completely different and as we know the President corrected what Clinton and obummer were doing by caging kids.
But democrats can't let the truth get in the way of fake news propaganda and they fall for it every time like the lemmings they are.

Sure, I'm still waiting to hear from you about a single program or action that 0bama took to make the economy better.

Are you aware of the retraction?


Once more you show your ignorance. Time did NOT retract the story or the cover. What they did do is post a small correction at the bottom of the story. http://time.com/longform/john-moore-getty-photo-separation/?xid=tcoshare

They didn't correct the story or the headline at all.

They also issued another statement that states they stand behind the fake cover.

Yes, Time is dishonest and it doubles down on its lies; "fake but accurate." And it's not even accurate. That little girl was crying because she was tired, hungry and thirsty. Her mother put her through unbelievable dangers, taking her from he home and family in Honduras, leaving her father and three other children behind, paying $6,000 to a coyote to get into the USA illegally. Since she had already been caught and deported some years back, that was the only way she could enter the USA. She used her daughter as a pawn to try to get in.

That's the real story and the Time ignores it, because it doesn't fit the narrative.

What is ironic is that libs and the fake lying media do this every day and they believe just like the bag lady believed, that voters won’t notice. We do notice, it going to be 8 long years for libs.

Yes, we see the message every day. The fake media lies and distorts as a means to influence liberal idiots who are easily led like sheeple. You are one of the sheeple.

We are way past irony now, we're into the caricature of the double standard. If it weren't for double standards the left would have no standards at all.

That guy is also blind, the cover doesn't have Trump turning his back on the little girl.

As to ignorance, I feel you are making a customary pedantic distinction.... fine, most of us know you are far more demanding of others than you are of yourself. The net impact is Time admitted that cover was a bit misleading. Their intent was to exemplify the impact of the disastrous family decisions made by Trump…. I don't give a damn that the woman used a child to help gain asylum; Trump is doing far worse using that same child as a ransom tool to get funding. What I do give a damn about is the welfare of that innocent child. Whether you or anyone else is willing to admit, those children as suffering great harm; the lack of compassion for their plight is hateful. It isn't just the "libs" saying that, it is the entire world.... the whole world is watching our actions and we have lost the moral highground.

By the way, Trump is continuing the children's crisis by not providing clear direction to the problem resolution. He has reversed his direction to his subordinates a number of times since stopping the separations of new illegals being detained. It is reported by "fake news" there was a very heated meeting in which he intensely criticized his staff sycophants when they sought clarification of his directions.

You paint me as a liberal but I am not as I've repeatedly stated, I voted Republican but not for Trump. I voted my conscience; I could not vote for either of the terrible choices so I wrote-in a Romney/Huntsman ticket. What I am is a conservation Republican, not a closet anarchist as I find Trump and his supporters to be. I agree with George Will; it is no longer the Republican party. It is now the party of Trump and Congress beginning with O'Connell and Ryan, are his kowtowing, spineless toadies. Finally, the behavior of some posters here is what I expect of guttersnipes with a keyboard who are getting a chance to act out without any accountability. It disgusts me.
