You Are Better Than The Mainstream Media
That isn’t saying much.
Conservative Social Media Exposes the Liberal Media
Today we’re going to go through two case studies—one where the right was right and one where we got it wrong.
Iran: The Green Revolution
• If a revolution happens and the media refuses to cover it, does it exist?
While people were being shot and killed in Iran, these people were waiting to report the story.
They were waiting for this guy:
Be The Media
• Find credible sources• Create relationships• Verify facts• If facts cannot be verified but you are sure it’s
true, let people know that it’s not verified but you believe the facts are reliable
• Make clear corrections• Respond quickly
SOMETIMES, THE RIGHT IS STUPID
For the length of a catheter, there was a fabulous left-wing political star in Texas. Her name was Wendy Davis.
We were caught flat footed by these people
And dummies like this helped them
How the Left Wins on Social Media
• They’re organized (see also JournOlist)• They’re paid• They’re disciplined• They’re shameless• Almost nothing is spontaneous (people with
orange shirts just don’t magically show up to things)
The Propaganda Cycle
Made Up Birth Control Story
You can make a difference
• Understand the Game• Anticipate the News Story• When something newsworthy happens call in
help• Be factual• Be persistent. DO NOT LET THE STORY GO.

QUIT RAPING PEOPLE!!
