The media’s road to ruin its own credibility in war on Trump
NY Post ^ | 02/05/2023 | Michael Goodwin

Nearly seven years after most media abandoned standards of fairness in a stampede to defeat Donald Trump, it is widely accepted that those outlets can not be trusted to deliver accurate reports. Rather than perform the journalists’ duty of informing the public of news, many of today’s reporters and editors concoct narratives about events that consistently align with the agenda of the Democratic Party.

The media abandoned it's "standard of fairness" long before Trump. They bent over backwards to hide the Clinton crime wave.

Liberalism is narcissism, expressed at the societal level.

In war the 1st casualty is truth.

Ergo they are mere propaganda outlets.

In war there are harmers & those who put themselves in harm’s way.

Ergo they are combatants & if they cause injury or loss of life lethal force is appropriate

The "media" needs to be on the road to ruin. You have to be hooked on opium to understand anything the little Millies, Snowflakes and Zeros write.

Just read a story with a headline that read, "Georgia House Democrats Drop Gun Bills". Now I'm old school raised when English was taught in school. This means to me, that the House RATS gave up on their nonsensical idea to trample the Bill of Rights. Specifically, the right to keep and bear arms.

However, the first sentence explained that the House RATs rolled out a crap pot full of gun control nonsense bills. Those generations listed above weren't sh*ttin' in Head Start when they said they wanted to "change da wurl". They didn't say they wanted to change the language also.

When is that indictment coming from Georgia? The one that was said to be imminent last month? And a few months before that?

Even worse, the media is now a direct threat to people’s health. Just look at the CoVid and vaccine disinformation foisted upon the public.
In the past, the media actually did investigative reporting. Now it’s only the alternative media that will question the government and corporate establishment.

I’ve said it for quite a while now. The mask slipped completely in 2007 when Obama came along. The corporate media went from having an obvious Leftist bias - which they laughably tried to deny - to being nothing more than the propaganda arm of the Democrat party.

That’s why they’re dying even as independent media is growing like crazy. Nobody trust them and rightly so.

The media’s war is against TRUTH. Trump is part of the TRUTH that they hate and fear.

Monica, Charlie Trie, bags of cash, Vince Foster, Ron Brown, the Rodham brothers, Rose law firm files, FBI files, etc., etc., etc.

The Clinton coverups proved the media could be as big of liars as BillyJeff and the Hildebeast.

As they continue to prove by pimping Hillary's Steele file.

Yes, but the media abandoned its charade and pretense of journalistic standards and fairness upon Trumps' candidacy and 2016 election as documented by this same author, Michael Goodwin, in an article in the May/June 2017 titled, The 2016 election and the Demise of journalistic Standards in Imprimis tracking the NYTimes decision to go full liar in a 2016 Times article flatly stating their bias against Trump followed by the Times top editor Dean Baquet interview in October 2016 with the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard stating that the pretense of fair and unbiased journalism has been abandoned because their bias against Trump "will have changed journalism".

https://imprimis.hillsdale.edu/2016-election-demise-journalistic-standards/

Obama openly radicalized the Left bringing them to the brink and the Trump Derangement Syndrome drove them over the cliff.

The article here by the same author continues to track the self-destructive demise of the Delusional Lying Media.

2016 is an important point in time and I think prophetic, where the journalistic world has decided to abandon even the pretense or importance of the truth in favor of their own delusional agenda. Previews of coming attractions.

2 Thess. 2:11-12 characterizes the wrath to come (the soon-coming 7-year tribulation) this way: for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

This is a major turning point in that direction by those who do not love the truth. They should be shaking in their boots.
