Media Matters 1

This sets the stage for the rest of this note.  Quote: "Friday was one of the most embarrassing days for the U.S. media in quite a long time. The humiliation orgy was kicked off by CNN, with MSNBC and CBS close behind, and countless pundits, commentators, and operatives joining the party throughout the day. By the end of the day, it was clear that several of the nation’s largest and most influential news outlets had spread an explosive but completely false news story to millions of people, while refusing to provide any explanation of how it happened. The spectacle began Friday morning at 11 a.m. EST, when the Most Trusted Name in News™ spent 12 straight minutes on air flamboyantly hyping an exclusive bombshell report that seemed to prove that WikiLeaks, last September, had secretly offered the Trump campaign, even Donald Trump himself, special access to the Democratic National Committee emails before they were published on the internet. As CNN sees the world, this would prove collusion between the Trump family and WikiLeaks and, more importantly, between Trump and Russia, since the U.S. intelligence community regards WikiLeaks as an “arm of Russian intelligence,” and therefore, so does the U.S. media. And, "There was just one small problem with this story: It was fundamentally false, in the most embarrassing way possible. Hours after CNN broadcast its story — and then hyped it over and over and over — the Washington Post reported that CNN got the key fact of the story wrong. The email was not dated September 4, as CNN claimed, but rather September 14 — which means it was sent after WikiLeaks had already published access to the DNC emails online. Thus, rather than offering some sort of special access to Trump, “Michael J. Erickson” was simply some random person from the public encouraging the Trump family to look at the publicly available DNC emails that WikiLeaks — as everyone by then already knew — had publicly promoted. In other words, the email was the exact opposite of what CNN presented it as being."    https://theintercept.com/2017/12/09/the-u-s-media-yesterday-suffered-its-most-humiliating-debacle-in-ages-now-refuses-all-transparency-over-what-happened/    The mainstream media so hates Donald Trump they will jump on anything to discredit him. To this point a corrupt Democrat special prosecutor after a one year investigation has found nothing to charge Trump with. Yet they ignore the well founded rank corruption of Democrats inside and outside government and multiple illegal actions of past president Obama and his administration.  The dirty details of their dirty deeds are being exposed almost every day.

The once vaunted New York Times has allowed its left wing bias take over its content.  So, that makes it a left wing propaganda agent.  Here is John Stossel explaining what the NYT is up to.  Quote: "Anyone who still believes that the New York Times is fair, unbiased journalism must be living under a rock. You probably wouldn’t have to look past one edition of the paper to find one or more articles written with a painfully liberal, anti-conservative spin."   http://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/deceitful-bias-of-new-york-times-against-conservatives-revealed/

I agree with the sentiments expressed in this piece.  https://spectator.org/the-american-news-media-is-repugnant-donald-trump-is-sane/

This item points out how the media has been normalizing the terrible behavior of members of the political left.  Quote: "Normally so censorious of shutdowns, the media seemed eager for one on Thursday. Pundits offered up preemptive excuses for Senate Democrats who seek to torpedo a deal. The more that Democratic senators behave like hack liberal activists, the more the media cheers them on. The media is in a disruptive mood and sees a shutdown as a win for Trump’s enemies. Even as the House passed a bill to fund the government on Thursday evening, MSNBC contributor Howard Fineman was babbling about the GOP as the party of shutdowns.  Normally so censorious of shutdowns, the media seemed eager for one on Thursday.

We refuse to “normalize” the unconventional behavior of Trump, say journalists, even as they constantly indulge the unruly behavior of the left. Look at the media’s endlessly uncritical coverage of mayors and governors who defy immigration law. Or look at its fawning coverage of pols who proudly say that they refuse to acknowledge the legitimacy of this president. The media is perfectly happy to normalize frivolous boycotts, trivial calls for impeachment and censure, and sabotage by civil servants.    https://spectator.org/the-media-normalizes-the-unruly-left/?

The more the truth of unethical and illegal behavior of the political left emerges, the more irrational they become in their self defense.  Jim Acosta of CNN which is the very personification of unethical practices of the mainstream media serves as an example.    http://www.conservativefreepress.com/politics/cnns-clown-trumps-rhetoric-will-lead-dead-journalists/

Leftist run media outlets of all types are little more than left wing propaganda operations.  This is but one example of the policies exercised by Twitter operatives.   http://patrioticviralnews.com/articles/undercover-video-of-twitter-engineers-admitting-they-ban-conservative-accounts/

This hatful and unethical CNN reporter claims that Trump is the King of Fake News.  However, it is CNN which has repeatedly reported fake news and been caught doing so.  Most of the time for news that ends up proving that what Trump said or did was true, opposite of their reporting.  CNN is in no way an ethical or trustworthy news organization.  This guy should have been fired long ago    https://www.mrctv.org/blog/cnns-acosta-trump-king-fake-news    He deserves all the humiliation dumped on him.    http://truedaily.news/2018/01/19/jim-acosta-humiliated-by-trump-official/

This item puts the fake news organization CNN in proper perspective.    https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2018/01/20/the-rise-and-fall-of-cnn-the-most-busted-name-in-news/
