I know your above comment was rhetorical. I would like to comment that as of six to ten years ago, I no longer question what to believe.
I now know that if the national media reports it, except for a very short list of known reporters writing their own stuff, it is a lie. Not only is it always untruthful, it is malicious in nature.
I don't even rate Democrat politicians as low as the national media or a large university professor. Politicians are just everyday scumbags. The journalists, media heads, talking heads and university subversives are truly consumed with destruction.
These people are vile and should be identified as such at every opportunity to our countrymen.
We are up to the point where “mainstream” media are like the Soviet-era media. People derive information by interpreting exactly the contrary of what the media say (an ex soviets told me that).
Case in point :
Lying media says “Gun makes US suicide highest in world” => US suicide is far from highest in world and gun has nothing to do with suicide rate.
