Some things the media chooses not to tell the public because it just doesn’t fit the agenda

The most watched evening news program is David Muir on ABC. I watch it every night I am home, and I am appalled at what they choose not to report while they continually seek to destroy President Trump in the minds of the public.

I don’t see all of the reports, but here are some of the things that Muir’s program seemingly avoided entirely:

1. An investigation into the Obama administration, especially the lies of John Brennan and James Comey, revealed how far they went to destroy Trump, yet the media acts like the Justice Department and intelligence agencies were independent and infallible under Obama and Biden:

"A new CIA assessment was released on Wednesday that shows how far the Obama administration went to stand up the Russian collusion hoax. John Ratcliffe announced that ‘all the world will finally see the truth’ before name-dropping James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey as those primarily implicated in the scheme.

All three men took ‘unusual’ direct roles in shaping the now-infamous ICA that was released during the presidential transition following the 2016 election. It was that report that would form the building block of the Russian collusion narrative and eventually lead to a special counsel investigation."

This is just the tip of the iceberg from the media who chose to report endlessly on the Russian collusion hoax and continually lied about the Hunter Biden laptop while covering up for Biden’s deteriorating brain.

Haven’t watched in many years.
Why would anyone?

My local news channel is bad enough.

Hey Jack Hellner, you know the Leftist Media is committed to lying to further the pro-gov’t, anti-Ame4rican goals of the Left, so why do you keep watching ABC (All Bull Crap) News every night?

Listen to the truth to sharpen you mind. Listening to lies jus dulls your mind.

The truth. They don't tell the Truth.

Not surprised. For instance, many in the media up here will lecture about guns and how distinct we are from the U.S. because of the stricter laws but can’t be bothered to tell people that many U.S. states adjacent to Canadian provinces have not only less gun control but have homicide rates at about the same as the nearby Canadian province.

GK Chesterton warned over 100 years ago that censorship by the press is a bigger problem than than censorship of the press.

Thanks for posting. When I read this AT article earlier today, one thing that stood out to me was how long the media talked about the horrors in Congo. You’d think they’d talk about the new peace deal between Rwanda and Congo, yet they refuse to because it’d make Rubio and Trump look good.

Fox News made a concerted effort to cover this yesterday.

Big whoop. That's like being named the tallest midget in Norway.

The only people who watch David Muir are gay men and people who want to catch him slipping up and showing how vain he is with stunts like clothes-pinning his jacket to make it more form-fitting.

That’s why I stopped watching Fox News back in 2008 when Obama was selected. I haven’t watched any news programming on any platform since then. God gave me a brain. I can read, comprehend what I read, analyze what I read, and make my own mind up on what I read. I don’t need some news person, reading off a teleprompter telling me what news they think I need to hear.

What was the downfall of Walter Winchell?

However, Winchell’s later years were marred by controversy, including his alignment with Senator Joseph McCarthy’s **anti-Communist campaign**, which contributed to a decline in his popularity. By the end of the 1960s, he had lost his major contracts and died in 1972.

So they would have you believe ... which personally I think is just more ABC bs. Stopped watching Muir a few years back ... don't like what he is and who he is ... I'll leave it at that.

The power to ignore is the media’s greatest power by far.

“...David Muir on ABC. I watch it every night I am home,”

Proof that are people who are dumber than Kamala Harris.
