The medias lies have a price.
Politico, the media outlet of choice for flacks and hacks, has declared that Ron DeSantis, the conservative Republican running for Governor of Florida, against the medias favorite new socialist, suffered his fifth race-related controversy.
That fifth controversy is about something that somebody who isnt DeSantis tweeted. The fourth controversy also involved a DeSantis donor. The third controversy falsely smeared the David Horowitz Freedom Centers Restoration Weekend attended by DeSantis (and Medal of Honor winner Clinton Romesha). The second involved a GOP official who also isnt DeSantis. And the first was that DeSantis had been added without his knowledge to a Facebook group where other people said racist things.
And the media actually dares to get offended when people call it, Fake News.
What the five race-related scandals have in common is that none of them involve DeSantis. Theyre all guilt by association. Even by the loosest possible association, a donor, a GOP official, someone on the same Facebook page or someone in Florida.
These fake news scandals arent being generated because theres any basis to the racism smear. Its a strategic campaign decision made because DeSantis opponent, Andrew Gillum, is African-American. Since Gillum is black, the Democrats decided to accuse DeSantis of racism. (If DeSantis were running against a woman, he would be accused of sexism.) And the media decided to advance the smear by inventing race-related scandals based on the flimsiest of premises to help the Democrats win.

Now it has become a cross between Orwellian Doublespeak and Joseph Goebbels Propaganda.
Both are the enemy of a free society. And the Media is an integral part of the threat.
This must be understood.
Thew medias reliance on the 1st amendment does not allow themn to yell fire in a crowded theater, and it should not allow them to assassinate and impugn the character of our politicians.
They either stop, or we will change the election laws to allow candidates to sue media outlets for slander and defamation.
And if that does not work, then we can take down their broadcast capability, a relatively easy thing for a few dedicated individual patriots to do, taking them down every time they repair, over and over.
We need to start a campaign to cancel their federal broadcasting permits.
Very sad and true
The employees in the news print media are especially angry. These employees spent a lot of money getting their journalism degrees and now find themselves in dead end jobs, low pay, and huge student loan debts to payoff.
The newsprint media has alienated its customers for many years by publishing leftist news stories. So when the internet came around, people found new ways to get their news and stopped their newspaper and weekly magazine subscriptions.
The result of the intense anger of the news media employees is the constant negative news about Republican candidates and especially towards conservative Republican candidates.
So to counter the media the voters need to attend rallies for conservative Republican candidates and show the media that the media’s angry rhetoric is not being listened to or read.
Yes. Agree.
CNN, Al Jazeera America and NPR are not good credentials for accuracy in news. Especially International News.
Opps, sorry. I was thinking about another related Post that I just made. I referenced the wrong article.
Just noticed something interesting:
“They chose 404 people to poll”
Wonder if that is like getting a 404 Eror? Smile. Page cannot be found?
Does someone have a sense of humor, or are they just loonie.
The media is a thug mafia conspiring to destroy our speech and fabricate opinions with the help of excellent security and armies of cops cooperating with them.
Truly disgraceful
Yes, their offenses are so bad, that type of action is totally warranted. It is not a new problem, but it is so widespread that it endangers out national survival.
Agree
Yes, it’s now time to start the conversation about the difference between free speech, slander, and blocking the flow of free speech to the public by monopoly search engines and social media.
While the despicable anti American media mental disturbed elected officials and its zombie hordes attack, republicans bend over for them and the American people know what to do, GIVE TRUMP WHAT HE NEEDS TO DEFEAT THE ENEMIES, VOTE VOTE VOTE. We now have what we longed for since the tea party we cannot lose it now
btt
Maybe we need to simply start investigating all of these areas under a special commission appointed by president Trump.
Or draft a law called the Freedom of Speech and the Media Act.
Enable law suits and class action against defamation,slander, and blocking the flow of free speech to the public by monopoly search engines and social media.
You probably don’t watch the “leftist” news media. It is hard not to.
I have in my personal library “And That’s The Way It Isn’t”, a subscription gift National Review gave me some years back. It is a very thorough and comprehensive guide to media bias against conservatives that the Media Research Center published back about 1990 or thereabouts.
One enjoyable feature of this book is to read through their countless examples and analysis and think that they could easily be speaking about how Trump and others connected to his administration today (along with others in the conservative mainstream) are being portrayed by the alphabet networks and other establishment press outlets, when of course they are discussing how Reagan, George H W Bush, and others connected to their administrations and conservatism in general were portrayed often back in the 1980s and early ‘90s.
