The left-wing news media didn’t just poison the information environment with their incessantly negative coverage of President Trump going into the 2020 election. They also refused to give airtime to important arguments of the Republican campaign — both pro-Trump and anti-Biden — which meant millions of voters cast their ballots knowing only what the media permitted them to know about the candidates.
To measure the true effect of the media’s censorship on the election, the Media Research Center asked The Polling Company to survey 1,750 Biden voters in seven swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin), six of which (all but North Carolina) were called for Biden (survey details below). We tested these voters’ knowledge of eight news stories — all important topics that our ongoing analysis had shown the liberal news media had failed to cover properly. We found that a huge majority (82%) of Biden voters were unaware of at least one of these key items, with five percent saying they were unaware of all eight of the issues we tested.
This lack of information proved crucial: One of every six Biden voters we surveyed (17%) said they would have abandoned the Democratic candidate had they known the facts about one or more of these news stories. A shift of this magnitude would have changed the outcome in all six of the swing states won by Joe Biden, and Donald Trump would have comfortably won a second term as president.
Here’s what we found:
■ Burying Biden’s Bad News: The media’s censorship of Biden’s scandals had the strongest impact on this year’s election. According to our survey, more than one-third of Biden voters (35.4%) were unaware of the serious allegations brought against the Democratic nominee by Tara Reade, a former staffer who said Biden sexually assaulted her in the 1990s.
If they had known about Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations, 8.9% told us they would have changed their vote — either switching to Trump or a 3rd party candidate, not voting for any presidential candidate, or not voting at all. By itself, this would have flipped all six of the swing states won by Biden (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin), giving the President a win with 311 electoral college votes.
Even more Biden voters (45.1%) said they were unaware of the financial scandal enveloping Biden and his son, Hunter (a story infamously censored by TWITTER..

Walker’s team needs to be pointing out how Musk just released Twitter documents showing clear and rampant election interference in 2020 regarding Obama’s administration, including the FBI and Justice Dept, by colluding with Twitter to knowingly kill the laptop story as disinformation although they knew it was true. The media is just as culpable for their willingness to forgo due diligence in such a potentially important story. This is certainly the biggest case of election interference in history and much worse than Watergate. Right now Walker’s team should be asking Georgia voters if they honestly think these same people can be trusted to not be covering up damning information on Warnock. That would be the best move but I am sure McConnell would come to the dems defense and put yet another dagger in the back of the party he pretends to represent. Plus they would never take advice from any of us Freepers and instead follow the advice of someone like Karl Rove, who has not been helpful in getting a Republican elected in several decades.
I swear, even if the bad news about the Biden Crime Syndicate had been blasted out every night on the MSM, no Dem voter would have changed his or her mind. They would have said it was all made up by the Trump-owned press to get Biden.
The only way you couldn’t have known is if you had your head up your ass.
That indicates that the other 83% condone illegal activities. No wonder this country has gone the chit.
Re my tag line.
“Watch out where the huskies go and don’t you eat that yellow snow...’’ :-)
Yes, they would have stolen the election anyway.
And yet damned near every one of them voted "D" in the midterm elections. Idiots.
In that case, he would’ve gotten 85 million votes. The fix was in. The devil had orchestrated our demise perfectly.
And those 17% of people should not have the right to vote. They are idiots.
This is all irrelevant.
They would still vote for ANY d,no matter who it is.And even if they didn’t,what’s a few more hours,or another day to manufacture enough votes to put Biden on top.
And Deep State would still have stolen the election.
Twitter doesn’t fix the fact that RCV, RCV-enabled voting machines, early voting, and mail-in voting still exist.
Musk can fix Twitter, but if we don’t secure the ballot box, we won’t restore our republic.
That would have meant a 49 state landslide for DJT.
Democrats stole that election. Plain and simple. Biden is an illegitimate president.
For me that makes this seventeen percent even more stupid than I’d previously judged them.
Bkmk
Then they are idiots because if I knew the scandals then everyone should know the scandals.
BS they didn’t wan t know it’s why they cling to the liberal media they knew but won’t admit it to hide their stupidity and how things turned out.
Biden voters are just as disgusting as Biden. Biden is a chomo sexual predator and it is all out in the open. But they still voted for him.
