Mainstream Media Patriot Blackout

Big Gerry

It seems to me that the media are completely ignoring the patriotic political parties such as the National Party, the Irish Freedom Party, Anti Corruption Ireland and Identity Ireland etc.

The Irish media are not very "inclusive" when it comes to allowing Irish Patriots on the airwaves.

By trying to ignore the patriotic political parties the media have made them into the only real opposition.

Augme

There isn't really enough time to to devote to every crack pot party in existence.

They won't even acknowledge Sinn Féin in some of the biggest televised debates and very little mention of Labour/Soc Dems and the rest.

Some of the media are acting in an undemocratic manner. That much is evident.

You spelled racist wrong.

They are probably to unhinged to be let on TV.

Let them have 60 second twitter rants or 240 character soundbites

All they can manage.

I see James Reynolds of the National Party is 7/1 with Paddy Power..very interesting.

One of the most pathetic and laughable aspects about the blackout is the likes of Sinn Fein supporters are happy to have other parties excluded from the narrative whilst raging that they themselves are excluded also.
What a bunch of hypocrites.

There simply is next to no support for the headbangers you've listed.

This may be true but theres something else going on. In their breakdown of the Limerick electoral candidates the Irish Times listed every candidate running except for the National Party candidate.

Fake news or did 'The Paper of Record' make a mistake?

Rightwingers don't like objective coverage anyway.

There is no ReNua candidate in Limerick - unless one was announced in the last day or two.
They wouldn't have a hope anyway.

The thing I find worrying is that the aontu guy is a school principal and the nazi woman is a teacher.

The national parties leader is quite fond of the nazi's.

Headbangers don't need any attention.

The only irish times article i could find was on limerick county so i presumed they were talking about that constituency. But limerick city or county they will be out in the first or second count.

If they have no support then there be would no harm having them on the airwaves because they would pose no threat to establishment.


But the fact that the are deliberately kept off the air like the way Sinn Fein were during the troubles it makes them look a lot more important.

None of the political parties I listed are in anyway dangerous.

Sinn Fein have been involved in and defended Terrorism yet they will get on the media no problem while patriots who question Mass Immigration are banned from the Irish media.

If the media is biased maybe you're better off?

As has the U.S., the U.K., Israel, Charles Haughey, Charlie Flanagan and FG etc. etc.
A patriot is a matter of opinion and ultimately timing.

Like my post on Right wing politics.

Media ignore anything to do with Nationalism or the immigration debate.

How can your vote matter if they are all the same?.


Surely a right wing party should be given some media coverage but nope. Usual left wing dross all day!

The televised debate last night featured the leaders of...wait for it...two right-wing parties.

But none of the political parties you’ve mentioned had any seats in the last Dáil. Whether people on this thread support them or not on this thread, the situation is different with Sinn Féin. They are in the position of the Labour Party 2010. They are the third largest party in the Dail and look likely to remain that way another 5 years. Eamon Gilmore was included in the Rte debates in 2011. It’s only fair Sinn Féin is afforded that same opportunity. I’d say this for all parties but it’d make these debates go on too long where someone will bring up the subject of transgender fish in rivers and more people would just end up changing channel.

I don’t see how this is the fault of Sinn Féin, Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil or others that the media aren’t paying attention to smaller parties. these parties could join up with Sinn Féin, the greens and Labour in trying to seek an injunction against Rté.

Maybe these parties/supporters you’ve mentioned should go picket outside Donnybrook, D’Olier Street etc. There’s no point coming on boards.ie complaining about it. Your fight is with the IT, Rté Indo etc

I'm on left my self but I oppose Mass Immigration because it drives down wages and puts pressure on services.

Right wing parties LOL. Thanks for the laugh pal. :rolleyes:

Fine Gael and Fianna Fail couldn't be any less right if they tried they despise Nationalism and won't even discuss immigration. Not even for a second.

Sure you were looking at them all gooey eyed and in admiration but I don't fall for their nonsense.:rolleyes:

Right wingers can be nationalist. Have you heard of the Nazi party or closer to home the Blueshirts?

Being concerned about lowering wages and pressure or services makes you a Nazi now? Interesting.
