Much of the US media ‘discredited themselves’ through coverage of Rittenhouse case
Sky News ^ | Nov 22,2021 | Rita Panahi

Sky News host Rita Panahi says much of the media in the United States worked overtime to “discredit themselves” with their coverage of the Kyle Rittenhouse case. It comes after the US teenager who shot and killed two men during racial justice protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was found not guilty on all charges. “The misinformation about what happened before and during the trial cannot be put down to mere incompetence,” Ms Panahi said.

They have discredited themselves so often that they're no longer viable; I use the Babylon Bee for my news.

As Mark Twain wrote: If you don't read the newspapers you're not informed, if you do read the newspapers you're misinformed.

The MSM discredited themselves long before their biased “coverage” of the Rittenhouse trial. (aka attempted leftist lynching) The MSM now has a long, sordid history of discrediting itself profoundly and repeatedly.

“There was a deliberate campaign to push a particular narrative.”


There still is, and it is not a narrative that will ever be countered by facts.

Exactly. They live by the big lie and the truth doesn’t matter at all to them.

You mean they didn’t already discredit themselves after more than three years of wall-to-wall Russia Russia Russia, Ukrainian phone conversation, and “the walls are closing in on Trump,” all of which collapsed and was forgotten?

that’s an understatement, it should say “most” or “all” instead of much. Other than some of the reporting on FOX can anyone point to a single story in any major “news” outlet that did an honest job of reporting the story over the last 15 months?

"Much of the US media ‘discredited themselves’ ..."

"Much"????
"All" of the media already had zero credit to begin with...
Sky News uses understatement as part of its usual propaganda...

Russia Russia Russia was just one of the first instances. Rittenhouse is just one of the latest. Tomorrow they will lie their a@@es off about something else. How they show up in their hairdos and makeups, and smile so brazenly at the world, as if we’re not onto them already, is one of the great mysteries. And that’s just the politicians. The media’s really bad, too.

They’re emulating the British, which is odd. I thought most Aussies were exiled Irish, who overstate colorfully, or Scottish, who flatly state. Yet they emulate the British, who understate.

Much of the US media CONTINUED TO DISCREDIT THEMSELVES through coverage of the Rittenhouse case. They’ve been discrediting themselves at least since 2008!

“discredit themselves”?
The Liberal Media Defamed Kyle.
And I hope he sues everyone of them.

I think you need to go back a lot further, maybe fifty or sixty years.

The media is controlled by the same puppet masters who control Biden, et al.

They’d already discredited themselves on their coverage of President Trump.
