The central strategy of media bias is defining your terms. The most obnoxious strategy of liberal journalists is defining the Republicans as ideological extremists engaging in culture wars and weaponizing partisan narratives for political victory.
They pretend Democrats are nothing like this. The epic political battles of our time are between the ultraconservatives and the nonpartisans.
The same exercise happens with federally funded messaging, from public broadcasting to national museums. When President Donald Trump demands a review of these taxpayer-subsidized narratives, it’s considered some kind of authoritarian crusade against nonpartisan truth-telling. It doesn’t matter how much left-wing propaganda Trump voters have been forced to support. It’s automatically defined as the gold standard of information—because Trump questions it.
One hot topic this week was Trump’s crusade to impose the notion of “American exceptionalism” in taxpayer-funded museums before the nation’s 250th anniversary, and to root out divisive and partisan narratives.
On CNN, Anderson Cooper proclaimed this was “insulting to the memory of people who fought and died for this country. And I’m not just talking about those who fought in wars overseas. I’m talking about, you know, Americans, enslaved people who died in this country, who were lynched, who were chased by mobs.” Cooper struck a dramatic pose, or danced a partisan pirouette, as a spokesman for all dead Americans.
Cooper brought on former NAACP boss Cornell Brooks to share in the outrage. In a similar exchange on Cooper’s show in March, Brooks exemplified the liberal argument: “When I think about an American president charging the vice president with rooting out improper ideology at the Smithsonian, I think about a couple things. It is not the job of an American president to charge the crown jewel of American art and history and culture with having a proper ideology, right?”
