Title: Bitcoin plunge story somehow bursts onto the Sydney MSM frontpage??? Post by: Bitcoinpro on January 06, 2017, 04:54:24 AM They barely ever talk about bitcoin or bitcoin related stories then as soon as a plunge hits they are
all over it like this moring's breakfeast http://www.smh.com.au/business/markets/currencies/bitcoin-drops-after-chinas-yuan-reverses-direction-20170105-gtmr85.html Title: Re: Bitcoin plunge story somehow bursts onto the Sydney MSM frontpage??? Post by: Kakmakr on January 06, 2017, 05:50:32 AM These people make money from sensation, so it is just natural for them to nitpick news that would grab people's attention. Bitcoin got a lot of attention in mainstream media, when the price hit record high prices too, because it was news worthy. Most of the journalist know very little about Bitcoin, so they just react, when something big happens and then they back this up with 5 minutes of research via Google.
A lot of the media companies are shills for fiat slaves, so pushing Bitcoin down, would fit their agenda. < selective reporting > Title: Re: Bitcoin plunge story somehow bursts onto the Sydney MSM frontpage???

Post by: Ryan Dugan on January 06, 2017, 07:18:20 PM I guess they just talk crap because bullshit sells and they jump on any opportunity to sensationalize over any negative happenings of bitcoin. Also like the second poster said they make money off of causing hype so it only makes sense they will work people up or excite them or do whatever it takes to create some buzz and activity on their site.

Post by: Mometaskers on January 06, 2017, 08:52:34 PM Took them long to notice the gradual climb up, only reporting when it broke its record. It's only natural that they'd then sensationalize the plunge. Even without the fiat mafia interfering, I doubt the networks would be able to report properly about bitcoin. They probably don't even know much about it to begin with.
