Just when you thought the corrupt, fake news media could not possibly become any more corrupt or fake than it already was, they go and prove you wrong. As President Donald Trump and his administration mobilize the entirety of the federal government in the fight to contain the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus, he and his task force members are doing everything they can to keep the public informed. Simply put: Our country is now on a war footing, regardless of anyones opinion about whether or not such measures are actually justified.
The President and his team hold press conferences at least once every day, often twice or even more, as a part of this effort. During a time like this, any patriotic American who cares about this country and our fellow citizens would hope that people who hold themselves out to be news reporters would focus their questioning on actual news-related stuff, and do their best to leave their leftist political correctness and active grudges against the President secured away in the enormous fanny packs in which all their rage-filled grudges are stored.
Well, you can hope that, but you would be disappointed if you did. Take the raging nitwit below as a prime example of a corrupt reporter using yesterdays televised press conference as an excuse to grandstand her own grudge against President Trump and his ongoing, 100% accurate use of the term Chinese virus to describe what he is fighting:
ALX 🇺🇸 @alx President Trump asked again why he uses the phrase Chinese Virus:
It comes from China, I want to be accurate
Embedded video
Reporter (no idea who she might be): Ok, why do you keep calling this the Chinese virus? There are reports of dozens of incidents of bias against Chinese Americans in this country. Your own aide, Secretary Azar, says he does not use this term because ethnicity does not cause the virus. Why do you keep using this? A lot of people say its racist?
President Trump: Its not racist. Its not racist at all, no. Not at all. It comes from China. Thats why. It comes from China. I want to be accurate. I have great love for all of the people from our country. But, as you know, China tried to say at one point maybe theyve stopped now that it was caused by American soldiers. That cant happen. Its not going to happen, not as long as Im President. It comes from China.
[End]
Now, about those dozens of incidents of bias against Chinese Americans, which this reporter wants people to believe were somehow caused by the President correctly identifying where this virus originated: Most likely almost all such reports assuming they even exist anywhere outside of this reporters mind are false. Possibly all of them made up by leftist activists pursuing their political agenda, an Alinsky tactic that Democrats and their media toadies use all the time.
Do idiots exist in our society who exercise bias against Chinese Americans? Sure. There are idiots in our society who exercise bias against all races, colors and religions in America. No society of 339 million people can ever be free from the acts of idiots.
This reporter is one of those idiots, exercising her rage-filled bias against a President trying to get accurate information to the American people. And she wasnt even the worst example from yesterdays press conference check out this raging clown show:
The Hill ✔ @thehill Reporter: "A person at the White House used the term Kung Flu... And do you think using the term Chinese virus puts Asian Americans at risk?"
President Trump: "No, not at all. I think they probably would agree with it 100%. It comes from China. There's nothing not to agree."
Embedded video
Reporter (Again, no earthly idea who she is): Theres reporting that the federal government has a plan that shows this coronavirus outbreak might last as long as 18 months are you seeing those numbers?
President: No, Im not seeing that at all.
Reporter: And my second question is, there are some, at least one White House official who used the term Kung flu, referring to the fact that this virus started in China. Is that acceptable? Is it wrong? Are you worried that, that having this virus be, be talked about as a Chinese virus, that that might
President: I wonder who said that. Do you know who said that?
Reporter: That, Im not sure the persons name, but would you condemn the fact
President: Say the term again.
Reporter [clearly lying]: Th, um, a person at the White House used the term Kung flu'
President: Kung flu.
Reporter: My question is, do you think thats wrong Kung flu and do you think using that term Chinese virus, that puts Asian Americans at risk?
President: No, not at all. No, not at all. I think they probably would agree with it 100%. It comes from China.
[End]
You seriously could never make this up, folks. In the middle of a national emergency, an emergency that is going to end up ultimately killing hundreds, if not thousands of Americans, all these tiny-brained journalists can focus on is political correctness. If these people had been alive on D-Day, they would have used their time to chastise FDR for someone in the White House using the term kraut, or maybe for using unfair stereotypes to demonize Herman Goehring.
It is a stunning display of not only inexcusable, pervasive bias in the American media, but also of what can only be called rank stupidity. These reporters are just plain stupid people who have no sense of priority.
But hey, in case anyone is sitting there thinking Im picking on the women, fear not: The award for absolute dumbest, most brain-dead corrupt reporter take of the day goes to Richard Engel of NBC News:
Daily Caller ✔ @DailyCaller NBC News @RichardEngel:
This is a virus that came from the territory of China but came from bats. This is a bat virus, not a China virus. It doesn't speak Chinese. It doesn't target Chinese people. It targets human beings...

*sigh*
The American media is garbage. Smelly, rancid, putrid garbage.
That is all.
I personally like calling it the “Wuhanic Plague”
Hoo Flung Dung would say:
“Kung-flu reporter woman who fly upside down over grave yard have clack up.”
This is a virus that came from the territory of China but came from bats. This is a bat virus, not a China virus. It doesn't speak Chinese. It doesn't target Chinese people. It targets human beings...
This morning I have reached my breaking point with NBC. They have been acting like a Chinese "news" service.
I created a helpful email at work that shows the latest stats on the virus (https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/).
I was severely chastised for sending it out because the title was “ChinaVirus helpful information”. I was accused of being very insensitive.
There was some private back and forth between me and the two liberal females that were most upset. I politely responded and said I would call it whatever the new vernacular required. But they called me hateful and many other names. One of them even came out in her private email to me that she really hates Trump.
They must have complained to the manager because she sent out an email telling eveeryone to not call it the china virus and don’t link anyone to non-government sites.
Thing is, the manager likes me and I know she is at least a little bit trump fan. Those women must have shown her my response to them and not even realized that their response to me was juvenile and hateful while mine to them was always respectful. I think she just acquiesced to their wishes to calm them down.
I feel like an ex-college professor working among a bunch of precious snowflake teenage girls - except these women are all in their 40’s to 60’s. They are all single, make no bones about their hatred of men, and have even adopted children to raise without a father. Toxic femininity running fatherless homes. What could go wrong?
China needs to be banned from the community of nations. We have no need for China. America hummed along nicely before we traded with China; we can do so again.
China with blood on its hands must pay reparations. Its disregard for human life and financial markets is beyond the pale. The Chinese need to be BANNED from travel to the United States permanently. Until the communists are deposed it will be business as usual and the same thing can happen again.
ask them what ebola should be called
How low can these idiots go? They are now towing the communist Chinese party line
Firstly, it is not JUST the American media, and secondly, I would replace the word 'garbage' with 'excrement'. Thirdly, I would add 'disease infested' to describe the media.
I would instead write, 'The world media is excrement. Smelly, rancid, putrid, disease infested excrement.' That disease is socialism/communism further purified by secularism.
I wonder what their thoughts are on the name “African Swine Fever”.
“Racist”, I would imagine.
First person to say racist is the racist. Some types of racism is socially acceptable now.
WHO issues best practices for naming new human infectious diseases
BTW, someone might want to tweet this to Trump's Twitter feed.
Oh wait, we cant call it Kung Flu.., to confusing yo the Hong Kong Flu
Democrats like to rename everything. They should get on that, Im sure that it will prove very helpful. NOT.
Im calling it the Chinese Wu Flu.
They want to make sure the POTUS is blamed for all this.....never forget that.
