You know something? Well, not to be rude, but just how would YOU know?
The recent “news” event is the amazing awareness that SOME NEWS ISN’T REAL!
Bet that caught you by total surprise, now didn’t it?
Tubularsock has now read at least seven different articles about this “FAKE NEWS” and almost that number again on the opinions about “FAKE NEWS”.
That is a hell of a lot of time given up from REAL NEWS which seems to be just the definition of news one agrees with as opposed to news THAT THE RUSSIANS ARE CREATING!
Now the only vision that comes to Tubularsock is a little short, balding, runt of a man, ahhh let’s call him say ….. puutan. This little guy is sitting at a computer typing out evil messages and converting them into NEWS to be printed by a network of evil spewing fake news cells throughout the entire globe …… ALL TOP SECRET but with only one supreme message ……. to lie to the proletariat.
And then of course a similar message is being produced by a hair impaired orange man, ahhh let’s call him say …. trummton. This small handed man is sitting high in a tower in a major metropolitan location with his cell phone tuned in to the entire world via Twitter. And he too is lying to the proletariat.
So the only REAL question is ………..
Can Tubularsock produce enough REAL TRUE NEWS to act as a counter force against this extreme evil? Sure Tubularsock can. Tubularsock has been making up news for almost sixteen years as Tubularsock, “. . . first hand coverage, second hand news.” And even the sky isn’t the limit ……. Tubularsock is talking COSMIC here!
The irony is news-producers like the New York Times and the Washington Post have the gall to even join in the conversation. Of course with some of their news staff being paid by the CIA to promote “REAL NEWS” they do know the potential of “FAKE NEWS” being a real commodity. Experience is the best teacher Tubularsock supposes.
And for fun, just where does Voice Of America fit into all of this? Or even fucking NPR!
Could it be that IT’S ALL FAKE?
Think about it ……. your parents told you that a fat man with a bag of toys came to your house every Christmas to represent the birth of Christ who was born by VIRGIN birth and you believed THAT! And that lie was told to you by your very own parents.
So THE GOVERNMENT wouldn’t create lies and make up stories?
“You bet your sweet bippy” they would as Rowan & Martin used to say.
What! The news is fake? I never would have guessed.

Tube: so what you’re saying is that real news is really fake..and that fake news is the real norm…and that none of the news we get is really real. And that bastions of the news like The New York Times and Washington Post are phony. Oh my God…Walter Cronkite where are you now that we really need you?

Well Tubularsock hates to break your “goody-goody” button BUT Walter Cronkite was involved in the CIA’s Operation Mockingbird which was designed to push “trusted propaganda” onto the American public. Cronkite, a former intelligence officer, became an important asset to the CIA. As did many main stream media commentators.
So Michael, Tubularsock doesn’t miss Walt at all ……. “And that’s the way it is,” as Walt would say.

I have never been to anyone’s house, uninvited, to bring presents! So stop accusing me of this heinous crime!
How’s that for some FAKE NEWS?
The virgin birth of Christ? Really? I think you have Easter and Christmas mixed up. Both are of pagan origin, but there really was a Saint Nicklaus, or something like that. But it’s all too fucking convoluted to go into now! And shit, I gotta go!
BTW:
“You bet your sweet bippy…” Your old age skirts are showing, Tube! But I always love LAUGH(ING) IN with you!
