Mainstream Media Nonesense 2

Anyone who believes anything the mainstream media has to say is taking a big risk of being misled or outright lied to.  So many of them have stooped so low that they have little if any credibility left.  Quote: "The leftist mainstream media staked everything it had on the Russia collusion hoax and the Ukraine impeachment effort bringing down President Donald Trump. Now, with their own credibility in shambles, they once again have put it all on the line to hype the unprecedented overreaction to a pandemic much like those encountered during the Obama administration. But despite the ensuing coronavirus panic’s success in tanking the once-bullish economy, Trump has risen to the occasion, reinventing himself as a wartime president in response and holding daily press briefings to update the public directly. That’s as high as he’s gotten and perhaps more striking, his approval rate on handling Covid 19 is 60%. I bet that owes something to his much-criticized briefings and the participation in them of top public-health officials."    https://www.libertyheadlines.com/media-freakout-trump-approval/

More rank left wing hate filled and unethical mainstream media nonsense and filthy lies exposed.   https://www.redstate.com/nick-arama/2020/03/16/wapo-opinion-piece-debunks-another-false-sttory-no-trump-didnt-eliminate-the-pandemic-response-office/?  The things they are willing to do is beyond belief.   AND, if you still don't think that NY Times editor Mara Gay is nothing more than a left wing fake news denizen, read this and you will learn that she has absolutely no journalistic ethics.    https://www.redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2020/03/16/fed-up-writer-cuts-through-media-bull-to-explain-trump-admins-strategy-to-combat-wuhan-coronavirus/? This journalists is a traitor to her profession.  She is not seeking legitimate information. She is seeking to demean the president to make herself look good in front of her left wing peers.  But to the viewing public she looks like unethical the left wing unethical she is.   https://www.redstate.com/elizabeth-vaughn/2020/03/26/trump-to-cbs-reporter-its-very-clear-people-in-your-profession-write-fake-news.-you-do.-he-does?    These people are unbelievably unprofessional fake news journalists and should be ashamed of themselves. 

More trouble in store for the NY Times.  Quote: "There’s finally a chance that The New York Times will be held accountable for lying to the American people. The Trump campaign just filed a lawsuit against the Times for a 2019 article that falsely claimed the campaign had “an overarching deal” with “Vladimir Putin’s oligarchy” to “help the campaign against Hillary Clinton” in exchange for “a new pro-Russian foreign policy, starting with relief from the Obama administration’s burdensome economic sanctions.” The Times peddled a wild, baseless conspiracy theory, yet the author, who spent nearly a decade as the Times’s executive editor, simply presented his politically-motivated assumptions as unassailable fact. It was a classic example of the “collusion delusion” that gripped the political left throughout the first two-and-a-half years of the Trump administration."    https://townhall.com/columnists/harmeetdhillon/2020/02/28/the-new-york-times-is-about-to-face-a-reckoning-for-its-lies-n2562162?

In case anyone did not already know that the Washington Post is not interested providing factual information to the public this will help you understand that is indeed the case.  They only want the public to know what they want them to know and think so they recast anything Trump, or anyone working with him says so it says what they want said.  Quote: "In a fact-check, the Washington Post gave Dr. Anthony Fauci four "Pinocchios" on Friday for claiming that Italy's lax travel policies contributed to its ongoing coronavirus crisis. But the Post's fact-check is wrong."  In other words they told a bold faced lie. Here is what Fauci said.  "Our shutting off travel from China and, more recently, travel from Europe, has gone a long way to not seeding very, very intensively the virus in our country. Unfortunately, Italy did not do that. They had an open border, they let people in."  The Post claimed that Italy DID NOT have an open border. Liars, liars, liars pants on fire.  Their hatred for anything Trump and his team does/says is way, way out of control.  Their goal?  Get rid of Trump. To heck with him.  We wanted Hillary to win so she could finish what Obama started. Destroying our Democratic Republic and converting us to Socialism.   https://www.theblaze.com/news/fact-check-washington-post-fauci?

Yet more Times nonsense, as well as other left wing mainstream media outlets.   Quote: "John Keats wrote in his “Ode on a Grecian Urn” that Beauty is truth, truth beauty, —that is all — Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.” These days truth is in precious short supply in much of journalism."  And,  "Two major facts are currently dominating the MSM news waves – the Coronavirus and the 2020 Election. Both of these events and their headline stories are generating significant levels of fear in the minds of America’s citizenry, and both are going to be with us for awhile. The fear surrounding the Coronavirus is understandable and may grow even worse as the possibility of a pandemic dominates domestic and international news. The fears surrounding the 2020 Election, though admittedly less deadly, are just as real in the minds of many Americans and the news media. Two important questions to consider in evaluating media fearmongering of the 2020 election are: 1) how justified are concerns of foreign intervention in the election and 2) should the public be alarmed by how the media present these events to us?"  And,  "To construct and manipulate facts to fit a favored narrative simply isn’t legitimate journalism; it is more akin to indoctrination, brainwashing and propaganda. It puts an unprofessional thumb on the scale of truth. We have seen several examples of fact creation and manipulation to fit a popular, predetermined, polarizing narrative."  Examples follow.   https://townhall.com/columnists/jamesmccoy/2020/02/29/the-problematic-truth-in-todays-journalism-n2561946?

Yet another sickening example of the NYTimes and its infamous lack of journalistic ethics.  Quote: "Adam Popescu’s hagiographic, Biden puff-piece would be unthinkable to most old-school reporters. But Popescu is no old school scribe. He’s a climate change activist, naturally, who appears to dip his toe into other areas in order to keep a roof over his head. Far more likely to be writing about Arctic Bowhead whales or farmed salmon than corrupt former Vice President’s sons, Popescu’s political naivety is on full display during his bootlicking two-thousands words about Hunter: a man who suckled at the teet of corrupt foreign businesses while his father pimped out the office of the Vice President. That father now wants to be President, of course. Painting “puts my energy toward something positive,” Popescu allowed Biden to wax lyrical about his new, Harvey Weinstein-walker attempt to distract from the real story about his corruption. The Times makes brief mention of his dealings in China, Ukraine, and with Romanian oligarch Gabriel Popoviciu. Then they let him get away with not answering questions on the matters. “He declined to answer questions about them,” Popescu wrote. As if that somehow excused utilizing the rest of his 1800 words to help Hunter reform his image on the same weekend his father would wrap up the South Carolina nomination in the Democratic primary, alongside a handful of big-name endorsements from the party faithful. Doubtlessly the strategy was an intentional one. No one could accidentally flex such shoddy journalistic morals."    https://thenationalpulse.com/news/new-york-times-journalistic-malpractice-hunter-biden/ 

Still don't think the NYTimes has been reduced to being little more than a left wing rag with full intentions to mislead the public for left wing political purposes?  This is what they have been forced retract a piece they printed because they purposely misstated the actual facts to make people they don't like look really bad.  Quote: "As Streiff covered, last weekend the New York Times printed an above-the-fold hit piece on Project Veritas, attempting to link O’Keefe, Erik Prince, Betsy DeVos, and the Trump administration in an alleged scheme to use foreign spies to infiltrate unions. Their alleged source? “[I]nternal Project Veritas emails that have emerged from the discovery process of a court battle between the group and the [American Federation of Teachers] union – ha[ve] not previously been reported.” The New York Times writers completely ignored the substance of Project Veritas’ reporting on the internal workings of the AFT and how they handled teacher-student molestation complaints. Had they included that information, it would have detracted from the conspiratorial fairy tale they were attempting to create. It turns out the true basis of their allegations wasn’t internal emails; it was “source” interviews. Unnamed sources, of course."   Get the full facts here.  https://www.redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2020/03/12/ny-times-forced-to-print-retraction-in-project-veritas-hit-piece/? 

All of the previous items and the ones that follow set the stage for this one.  Quote: "That journalism is dead has been a punchline for so long that we’ve forgotten how that fact has real world consequences. We’re now paying the price for the failure of that profession to hold itself to any semblance of standards. As worry and straight-up panic sweep large swaths of the country, causing irrational toilet paper hoarding and runs on canned goods, there is no outlet and no journalist worthy of trust when it comes to conveying truthful information to the public or to hold anyone in power accountable. Eight years of sycophantic, throne sniffing coverage under President Barack Obama gave way to four years of nitpicking, hostility, and conspiracy theories. There are no standards anymore; if someone on TV hates President Trump, there is no outrageous, medically dubious statement they can make on CNN or MSNBC that will be challenged and if they love him, there is nothing that will be challenged on Fox. The opposite is true on those networks if you replace “President Trump” with any Democrat. This cheerleading is fine if the story is about politics, but this isn’t about politics, this is about life and death. Coronavirus is a serious threat, but only to a very small segment of the population. Hyping or downplaying it is profoundly unhelpful when honesty is needed. But there isn’t anyone trusted across the board in media to convey truthful information. So you get manufactured panic and runs on toilet paper; supermarkets have empty shelves and fights break out over a lack of basics."  And,  "The death of journalism has left Americans with nowhere to turn to for reliable, honest reporting. All of these outlets could and should have only experts on to talk about coronavirus. What someone on the payroll with zero background in medicine thinks about this situation might be good for ratings, but it’s not journalism. And people tune in to news networks expecting to get news, especially in times like this. Unfortunately, you can’t find news anymore because journalism is dead. It didn’t die of coronavirus, it didn’t even die of Trump Derangement Syndrome (though that helped push it over the edge), it was a slow suicide. And now we’re paying the price."    https://townhall.com/columnists/derekhunter/2020/03/15/were-paying-the-price-for-the-death-of-journalism-n2564967?
