NBC News' 'Defcon 1' Framing of New Conservative Spanish-Language Channel Is Something Else
Red State ^ | 3/7/2022 | sister Toldjah

As we’ve talked about before, during Donald Trump’s presidency, panic began to set in among Democrats who understood that without a virtual lock on the “minority” vote, their chances of winning elections would become increasingly difficult to near-impossible in some cases, especially in battleground parts of the country.

Their concern was in response to Trump making significant inroads with Hispanic voters during the course of his time in office, which was reflected in the 2020 election results. In them, we saw a noticeable shift in the Hispanic vote in places where they normally voted Democrat. There was evidence of this shift in the Gavin Newsom recall election effort, as a closer look at the final results revealed.

Unfortunately for Democrats, support among this key voting bloc continues to drift to Republicans, so much so that a new Spanish-language conservative network called “Americano” is set to debut in an effort to increase the momentum.

Not surprisingly, the mainstream media is already fretting about this development, as seen in how they framed the story on what one Hispanic pollster called a “Defcon 1 moment” for Democrats who the news outlet said were worried about the alleged spread of “disinformation”(snip)

The network’s founder responded accordingly with the perfect message:

Americano’s founder and CEO, Ivan Garcia-Hidalgo, bristled at the notion that the privately funded network is going to purvey disinformation or misinformation, and accused Democrats of trying to cancel speech they don’t like.

“They’re scared. And they should be,” Garcia-Hidalgo said of Democrats in an interview. “Democrats took Hispanics for granted for too long, and no one thought to create a home for us in conservative media. There is an appetite for this. You see it on social media. You see it in elections.”

The Democrat Media lexicon has had to adapt to the party’s shrinking numbers and disastrous “leadership.”

“Disinformation” is now any information that a Democrat doesn’t enjoy hearing.

“Far Right” is now anyone who disagrees with a Democrat about anything.

The more they sink beneath the political waves, the more laughable their pompous self-importance becomes.

They don’t highlight the name of the new network.

I think it is Americano.
