I might be the only freeper who wasn't already aware of this column, but I thought it interesting. It's predictable... but interesting.

I don’t believe there are many “undecideds”. There are many who don’t know much about the impeachment but when they learn of it they will fall back to either pro-Trump or anti-Trump.

The lines have been drawn for some time.

From the article:

“It soothes journalists’ angst about not being perceived as inoffensively neutral,” Sullivan explained. “It’s too easy, and too often an easy coverup for, yes, epistemological nihilism: The notion that there are no facts, so let’s not bother to try establishing them.”

One of the comments:

“Alexa, why are newspapers dying?”

The WP has lost all credibility as they have taken a firm side on impeachment.

I don't think that's true, judging from the number of pollsters who leave messages on my answering machine. And MSN is sure reporting a lot on impeachment leanings.

I'm old enough to remember when the Wash-Poo was part of the Media rearguard defending Rapin Bill Clinton from the legal consequences of his serious felonies.

Now, they're advocating pushing Media propaganda to remove our President over non-crimes.

They figure that once their side regains power, we won't be around to remember since we'll have all gone on a long boxcar ride...

At this point, RT (Russian Today) is more objective than America’s Fake News Media.

George Soros and his backers (counties that are our enemies) must be absolutely astonished at how cheap they can buy the whores at the Washington Post.

LOL. As if journalists haven’t already been doing their utmost, and then some, since 2016. Diminishing returns.

I don’t read the Bezos’ Compost garbage. Can’t be swayed. I’ve totally eradicated the Democrat media from my life.

I never advocate burning down a building, but WaPo is testing me. When in the course of human events, . . .

Kind of frightening, isn't it?

Didn’t Goldwater say something about wanting to “lobb one” into the Kremlin men’s room? The same logic applies here.
Give ‘em a 15 minute warning.
