The media kept JFK’s affairs secret.

The media kept LBJ’s racism and cursing secret.

The media tried to spike the Monica Lewinsky story.

This is no surprise. We do not, and never have had, a free and fair press in this nation.

It is the rise of the internet and citizen journalists (like Drudge) that is finally restoring some honesty to the information we receive.

I am sure that over the next 20 years, even more will come out about Obama that was buried by a sympathetic media.

Citizens have more work to do.

You got that right.

Drudge is no longer honest and now spikes stories on his own (FBI collusion, etc.).

Most Americans are busy with life making ends meet and are more interested in sports than politics for relaxation.

Sorry, but that's the way it appears to be.

Barack’s 20 year association with Jeremiah Wright should’ve tanked his candidacy.

Barack’s association with Pentagon bomber and traitor Bill Ayers should’ve tanked his candidacy.

Talk about radical Left...

Pot and more black separatists only confirmed what was already known and admitted to.

The Press has never been unbiased. Google “yellow journalism” sometime. The Little Rock Democrat-Gazette and Tallahassee Democrat did not get their names accidentally.

However, once upon a time, there was media with editorial policy on both sides - left and right, Republican and Democrat. Now a few corporations own most of the newspapers and there is only left-wing journalism. Ditto for the media.

I was in a fast food joint this weekend and they had Crap News Network on the TV.

Haven't seen that channel in many years, I actively avoid them and the other loony one, MSNBC.

They had a graphic across the bottom of the screen that almost made me drop my lunch.

It said "PRO TRUMP MEDIA ESCALATES ITS WAR ON MUELLER" , and they had three talking-head liberal buffoons spewing garbage.
There are many indisputable FACTS that are 100% TRUE and these nimrods were trying to say they were false.

ALTERNATE REALITY.
