Media are just plain lying about Kayleigh McEnany 'science' quote
Wash Times ^ | July 16, 2020 | Becket Adams

It has been said before, but it bears repeating: You are better off watching raw footage of the White House press briefings than trusting the word of journalists.

Put more simply, members of our vaunted Fourth Estate cannot be trusted to report accurately on this administration. They are just making stuff up at this point.

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Wednesday tried to explain President Trump’s position that schools in the United States should reopen sooner rather than later...

Dr. Scott Atlas said — I thought this was a good quote — ‘Of course we can do it. Everyone else in the Western world, our peer nations, are doing it. We are the outlier here.’ The science is very clear on this — that, you know, for instance, you look at the [Journal of the American Medical Association's] pediatric study of 46 pediatric hospitals in North America that said the risk of critical illness from COVID is far less for children than that of seasonal flu.”

The White House press secretary concluded, “The science is on our side here. We encourage for localities and states to just simply follow the science. Open our schools.”

Journalists are clearly not trying to “inform the public.”
Journalists are just “trying to get Trump.”

“the risk of critical illness from COVID is far less for children than that of seasonal flu.”


Even taking the ‘PCR-positive tests’ with a huge grain of salt, this has been clear since late April, with substantial evidence in February...for children.

Where is the controversy?

Look
Kids

We had two years Of the Russia hoax bull crap which I did with not even a fizzle is Herman mueller finally showed up and couldn’t find his shoes with a flashlight.

Disappointed that they couldn’t impeach him on Russia the Democrats quickly switched gears to Ukraine And some phone call with the president were supposedly he was trying to “dig up dirt on Joe Biden”

They held onto the documents a month and then finally handed them over there was a sham quick trial which was laughable and then 100% of the Democrats voted for impeachment and 100% of Republicans voted against it. The liberal media of course the entire time said he should be removed

Anybody that thinks after those two events that the media has any credibility whatsoever in or just a mouthpiece for the Democrats is laughable

They are clearly hostile and just really can’t even help themselves and do real journalism it’s quite laughable

No of course they think they control the narrative because they on the media and that they can get the gullible Americans to buy end of their hate Trump nonsense and defeat him

Unfortunately for these media types they haven’t had a very good showing lately with their Democrat brown shirt idiot kids out there in the street riding looting and burning

And now they’ve moved on to cancel culture and even pissing off their liberal regular liberal brothren

And we still have four months to go until the election

And we certainly hope we’re gonna get some indictments out of Durham

The 4th Estate is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party. The propaganda arm of the DNC.

It’s obvious, once again, that the MSM take their marching orders from a single source. That is NOT what the Founders wanted when they added Freedom Of The Press to the First Amendment.

We need freedom *from* the press, or at least what pretends to be the press.

It is also possible that The Democrat Party is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the 4th Estate. Not entirely sure here who is the tail and who is the dog.

Are you kidding? They informed people that they shouldn't drink Bleach after Trump said they should.
