The way the media circled the wagons when Dan Rather was busted for airing a forged memo as bombshell “fact” in the closing months of the 2004 presidential election shows journalism has been dead for some time.
The MSM never did air the overlay gif.
They continued to assert “fake BUT accurate”. Time-Lies-Warner-HBO even created a propadrama teleplay to sell this lie.
The collusion of Journolist reporters to coordinate on press talking points was never publicly aired on the MSM.
The coverup of video of Obama toasting an Islamic terrorist, meeting with Nation of Islam’s black separatist antisemitic leader, photos of him smoking pot, were ALL suppressed until after he was safely in (or even out) of office.
It’s clear now the Watergate reporting was not journalism but rather a partisan attack on Nixon.
Before Dan there was CNN’s Eason Jordan admitting that all the news coming out of Baghdad prior to the war was just Hussein’s propaganda......
It has morphed into urinalism.
