The editor of The Plain Dealer in Cleveland told readers that critical coverage of Donald Trump was necessary despite their objections.
“The north star here is truth,” Chris Quinn wrote in a letter from the editor on Saturday. “We tell the truth, even when it offends some of the people who pay us for information.”
“The truth is that Donald Trump undermined faith in our elections in his false bid to retain the presidency,” he continued. “He sparked an insurrection intended to overthrow our government and keep himself in power. No president in our history has done worse. This is not subjective. We all saw it.”
Quinn expressed sympathy with Trump fans who were frustrated that their local news source does not “recognize what they see in [Trump].” But that won’t stop the coverage. “The facts involving Trump are crystal clear, and as news people, we cannot pretend otherwise, as unpopular as that might be with a segment of our readers,” he wrote. “There aren’t two sides to facts. People who say the earth is flat don’t get space on our platforms. If that offends them, so be it.”
Quinn wrote that President Joe Biden’s “mindset” and “success” were up for debate but cited the “false equivalency” by some readers who equate him to Trump.

One assclown’s lies........ Just cause he’s an ‘editor’, doesn’t mean much these days.
“He sparked an insurrection intended to overthrow our government and keep himself in power. No president in our history has done worse. This is not subjective. We all saw it.”
What kind of insurrection takes place without guns, people getting killed and then a long occupation with demands.
I didn’t need Trump to tell me the election was stolen. I saw it happen.
That’s right.
So did I. And the spineless GOP just stood by and watched it happen.
Ain’t just a river in Egypt.
It’s called R-A-T-I-O-N-A-L-I-Z-A-T-I-O-N.
“We’re the smart people, we know better than you, so shut up and listen to us, your betters, you idiots!”
He is a cretin! It is statistically impossible for what happened in the middle of the night following the election for the vote to turn that quickly. Of course, he probably doesn’t even realize how stupid he really is.
1. The editor is lying about Trump.
2. I look forward to his boss realizing why his dying media organ is deteriorating even faster than expected.
3. Let’s see if the clown still has his job in four years.
The alleged insurrectionists were armed to the teeth with smart phones and were observed shooting selfies indiscriminately.
An attempt to twart the alleged insurrection in it’s tracks was made by decorated Deep State hero police Lieutenant, Michael Byrd,
who fearlessly murdered an unarmed woman, Ashili Babbitt, before she could take any more selfies.
For his devotion to Deep State principles and ethics he was awarded a medal and a promotion.
typical ‘rat ... doesn’t know the difference between facts and opinions ...
Chris Quinn - can go piss up a rope.
What are Democrats voting for?
Bless the volunteers. What can be done if you know, to remove the fraudulent voters before the election?
Lemme guess...the Plain Dealer’s circulation has dropped from 300,000 a day in 2000 to 25,000 a day today!
Given the strength of their interest, if it can be done, I imagine they are trying . . . but I do not know the specifics other than the storyd details relayed, above.
Ok, thanks!
He’s an asshat whose “truth” bobs in a sea of his own bias.
If you want to know what blithering idiots think just listen to the MSM and read Snoozpapers like this.
