They have plenty of opportunities to work for private networks—but they shouldn't be allowed on public TV pushing those fringe extremist agendas.
Exactly. We spent four years dealing with all that partisan nonsense just so a tiny handful of extremists could spout their rhetoric on CBS? Not happening.
At the end of the day, their main guy is yesterday's news— 👎
In a few months, nobody is even going to remember that loser.

And who gets to decide who "breathes American" and who doesn't?
You?
Me?
Some failed political faction?

And what then? Are we just supposed to let the TV stations sit there gathering dust? If anyone actually needs to be cleared out, it would be those who rose to power back in 1999 and have stayed there ever since. Just take a look at which presidential candidates are constantly plastered all over the news and in the papers, while everyone else is left fighting for scraps. At this point, the only people left to kick off the airwaves are those who haven't sufficiently fallen in line with Latin and the corporate machine.

I heard a rumor—not sure if it’s an ultimatum or just a race to see if we lose the Latin alphabet—but if they're actually ditching it, then things are getting messy.
If that's the case, it just isn't right.

Dennis is a great candidate. He just needs to get on ABC!

What exactly isn't right?
Are we really talking about scrapping the Latin alphabet while using Latin script in the campaign?

Honestly, they might as well just appoint them as the editor of the ABC informative program right now. Why bother waiting for the ABC director to finish their campaign cycle?

It’s almost unbelievable. You look at our supposed champions of democracy, those loudmouths who constantly preach about media freedom and rail against political interference in journalism... and suddenly, they’re ready to toss all those precious principles out the window. 🤣

I haven't seen any evidence of them actually acting like advocates for media freedom—or, you know, people who protest against political influence over newsrooms. I certainly haven't noticed them speaking up when actual media liberties are being stifled...

It would be quite an interesting scenario if Latin were to become President, while that porcupine took charge of the Latin alphabet.

In my estimation, absolutely no one would even notice the difference.

1. That man isn't physically fit. To hold a position like that, you need to be in peak health, not ending up in the hospital every few weeks.
2. Hosting political shows while simultaneously running for President is a massive 🙂

An interesting interview with M. Harmon regarding Mason, fascists, anti-fascists, various opposition candidates, Vesna Pusić, and those Royalist gatherings in Mexico 👍

Is Latin dealing with some serious illness—leukemia or something?
Lately, they haven't been keeping up with their medication either. That's definitely not ideal. 😛

From what I understand, he actually has Crohnov disease.

The only real mistake was letting him run his South-of-the-border nonsense on American TV for the last decade instead of just kicking him out. If he sticks around, Hebrang should definitely take over running The Wall Street Journal.

dustymarlin10 said:It’s not fair.
Why shouldn't he be allowed to do his job?

Did Vidošević quit the Chamber of Commerce?
Did Josipović ditch college?
Did Hebrang leave Congress?

Nope, they didn't. And they won't. They’ll keep doing their day jobs while using those positions to lobby for their own campaigns.

There's nothing wrong with Latin staying on the clock.

But then again, you've got HloNoSrz involved, and since we all know whose side they're really on, I guess there's a reason for this supposed ban.☕

🙏🙏

Nobody seems to mind when it comes to Hlo, Milić, Čuljakica, and the rest... but Latin? He's always an easy target. 🙄 It's funny how so many people have had massive scandals and walked away totally fine—running ABC however they please, pulling in extra hundreds of thousands in side income, or getting paid trips for their spouses—yet Latin is the one everyone picks on just because he's HONEST. Anyone who actually knows him knows he's sharp, brilliant, and most importantly, nobody can ever point a finger at him for any kind of corruption. Even back when he held positions where he could have easily lined his pockets without anyone noticing... he didn't. Not even a cent. He always stuck to his contracted pay. Since Latin has been bringing in revenue for years (even with all those shows being banned or labeled "boring"), I don't see why he shouldn't be earning a double salary. Clearly, it just bothers people when someone is actually clean, principled, and has the backbone to speak his mind. His refusal to kiss anyone's ass is his biggest "flaw" in the eyes of those trying to get rid of him.

Everyone knows Latin earned the respect of his colleagues through hard work and integrity—but what about the others? What have they actually achieved?

In my opinion, out of all the candidates, Latin would be an EXCELLENT and, above all, an HONEST president right now—though I still think his very integrity might make it hard for him to lead a country where it seems everyone gets arrested whenever they feel like it. He wouldn't know how to stay quiet or tolerate the shady dealings and dishonesty.

Who cares if he's running for office? But you just can't go around threatening people at their jobs.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

But what happens when someone actually violates the labor rules at that specific job?

I mean, are we really going to pretend we don't see the blatant conflict of interest here? Is it even remotely possible to serve as a lead journalist for an info-political news program while simultaneously running for President of the United States or any other political office?

Or are we all just playing dumb?

If Hlo were to try something like this, they would be torn apart in a digital lynching within minutes...

Actually, why am I even surprised? We see people cheering on Mr. Grubišić for voicing his political opinions, yet the second a priest steps into a sacristy to do the same, everyone loses their minds.

It's just classic left-wing "principle" in full swing.

You really aren't getting this.🤷

If you're threatening to cancel a show forever just because they want to run a campaign—effectively killing their career—that's not right.

But if you tell Dennis, "Look, you can run, but you can't host this specific show during the campaign because it's common sense; find something else of equal weight," then that's a different story.

Clear enough?

And please, drop the whole "liberal" obsession already. Try to post a few times on the same thread without mentioning John.

He’s honestly not much of a host—whenever he speaks, everything comes out sounding a bit dim-witted and overly timid. If he ever decided to step into politics, I suspect he’d be even more clueless than he is now.
