WashPost's Dionne: MSM Scandal Coverage Too Fair to Trump
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/06/2019 12:08:05 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

This might sound like a sick joke—if not a Kafkaesque nightmare—but E.J. Dionne of the Washington Post is actually complaining that the problem with the MSM's impeachment coverage is that it has been . . . too fair to President Trump.

Appearing on Joy Reid's MSNBC show today [guest-hosted by Jonathan Capehart], Dionne began by approvingly citing Washington Post media columnist Margaret Sullivan's latest, in which she claims that the MSM have not done "nearly enough" in pushing back against Trump surrogates. She demands: "the mainstream media must end its addiction to both-sides journalism."

If these beltway humps ever travelled further west than the Potomac they’d have a nervous breakdown.

How out of touch are these people? She's at least fifty years behind the times.

Is it my imagination or are thtings really coming to a boil this week?!

I’d like to take about 150 of them to the River of No Return Wilderness in Idaho and turn them loose. Be dead in 45 minutes and good riddance.

Audiences of the mainstream media must end their belief that today's journalists are anything more than partisan propagandists.

That’s the magnitude of the inside the Beltway delusion that they believe they’re objective.
