And Biden got 80 million legal votes? More fiction.
Millennials aren’t journalists.
The vaccine was announced a week after the election.The hard drive got its first “mainstream” coverage about a week after the election.Coincidence?
It must have been the same miracle that made the economy improve so dramatically for three years. We just need one more actual:miracle.
Moderna was ready to submit their Emergency Use Authorization request data on October 25th before the FDA added another month to the required “safety wait” period.
Of course, that had absolutely nothing to do with wanting to move it until AFTER THE ELECTION. /sarc
Still cutting your blog off in the middle, even though it it all cut and paste. Mens recreation is strange.

NBC Fact check: Coronavirus vaccine could come this year, Trump says. Experts say he needs a ‘miracle’ to be right.https://t.co/Pu6hDrWGgP

More Media Failures
We certainly wouldn’t want to single out NBC News as the only media outlet who thought they could fact-check President Trump’s prediction on a vaccine and ended up failing miserably.
NPR ran a column about an FDA adviser, an official at probably one of the slowest, most overly-regulated government organizations in America until Trump came along, saying the swift arrival of a COVID vaccine simply is “not realistic.”
MSNBC managed to find an expert who said the idea of a vaccine by January is “preposterous.”

A special shout-out does go out to NBC though, as they again ‘fact-checked’ President Trump on his vaccine prediction in August.
“We are delivering lifesaving therapies, and will produce a vaccine before the end of the year, or maybe even sooner!” Trump claimed at his GOP convention speech.
“This is largely false,” NBC wrote.
Where are all the media reports fact-checking their own fake news story on the COVID-19 vaccine? Where is the apology to the President Trump? The humble admission that any self-respecting news organization should stick to actual facts, not ones that they make up?

“journalism is a dying industry”
BS. It is MORPHING into a new Dem-owned beast that controls what the Deep State ALLOWS us to see.
It is no longer print newspapers and tv networks (those are all way past their prime). The new journalism is Twitter, Google, Facebook, Instagram, Drudge (shrinking in influence and reach.
Most of the folks I worked with were solid and tried their best to stick with facts while also being fairly aggressive in pursuit of stories.
But there were the select few stenographers and yes men (women) who would write whatever dreck got them in good with their alleged sources.
And then there were the solipsists who believed they were completely "objective" and would NEVER admit to their own bias and slanted reporting. They were hopeless against all reason even when demonstrably in front of them. They are the self-righteous propagandists of today.
There's nothing wrong with "bias" in news reporting, it's unavoidable. But the self-deception of many/most reporters today as being "objective" is kooky and pathetic.
I often wonder if many are mentally ill sociopaths.
Btt
Once the DNA of the Covid-19 virus was sequenced in February 2020, the main stream media said the vaccine wouldn’t be available within a year. There were predicting no vaccine before February 2021.
