The Media went right for Sarah Palin’s jugular and blamed the Tea Party when Loughner shot Giffords and others in Arizona. Without even a shred of proof they blamed the right. Even after the facts came out and Loughner was proven to be a wackadoo with no connection to the right or conservatives what so ever, they continued with the false narrative for months!!
So, it only make sense when a committed left wing radical socialists commits a school shooting for the Media to scrub the “inconvenient” aspects of the shooters background and character.
The Media in America continues to be a vile, dishonest, and corrupt institution that will cover up, exaggerate and flat out lie to further its own agenda and the truth be damned!!!
. . . but that assumes that “the media” is a single institution. Why would that be? We have lots of independent journalism institutions, don’t we?No:
People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. It is impossible indeed to prevent such meetings, by any law which either could be executed, or would be consistent with liberty and justice. But though the law cannot hinder people of the same trade from sometimes assembling together, it ought to do nothing to facilitate such assemblies; much less to render them necessary. - Adam Smith, Wealth of Nations (Book I, Ch 10)Do our independent journalism institutions ever meet together? Only continuously, 24/7, since the founding of the Associated Press before the Civil War.
