The Left-Wing Legacy of the Mainstream Media

Original Article

Posted By: DW626, 12/7/2021 6:20:21 AM

Over the past eight decades there have many frauds promoted by the mainstream media. Perhaps the most notable, and consequential, was the media persuading an overwhelming majority of citizens over the years that their brand of journalism is a not only the epitome of a noble profession but one that always strives to be fair and balanced. But the legacy of the mainstream media is that it has always been the cheerleaders and propaganda arm of the left and the Democrat Party. The modern-day mainstream media can trace its beginning to the passage of the Communications Act of 1934

I've despised Walter Cronkite for 50+ years, then his acolyte Lying Dan Rather took over. How much better-off would America be if those two never existed? Huntley & Brinkley were almost as bad and started the NBC legacy of America last!

I was driving shortly after Cronkite's death, listening to local WDBO radio news, when it was reported that Cronkite's FBI file, released at the FBI Vault site, described his work behind the scenes calling and cajoling student Vietnam War protesters at Rollins College and FTU (now UCF) to get out there and protest at some event. I think it was at Cape Canaveral. In return, he offered them prime coverage on CBS Nightly News. Kindly old Uncle Walter! I got home and read it with my own eyes. Later, his file was REMOVED from the FBI Vault site. How does a dead commie news reader get his FBI file scrubbed? Commies everywhere, working together.

My eyes were opened as to how much lying the media does back in 1970 when the national media broadcast for a week about a huge riot. That huge riot was confined to a one block area. In fact, in the next block over, it was business as usual with people going about their business and families shopping like nothing was going on. The so-called rioters were nowhere to be found because the police had blocked off that particular block. If one had just watched nothing but the network news, one would have thought the riot was taking place over a large section of the city. From that day forward, the network news was dead to me.

An "overwhelming majority", Steve? I really doubt it. Perhaps there was some truth to this during the Walter Crankcase days or that other buffoon Dan Blather among several others. But, now that we the people have better access to the truth about anything, no way it is even a slight majority. You might want to browse public opinion polls regarding today's msm to see for yourself, Steve.

I wonder how many people truly realize the extent of Cronkite's hatred for this nation? If you read John O'Neill's book about the Swift Boat guys of Vietnam that came out when Kerry was running in 2004, you will see Cronkite's true hatred for our military revealed in all its putrid glory. He lied nightly on his broadcast, and stole the victory from our boys. We were winning in Vietnam, and the North Vietnamese General in charge of their war department actually said in his autobiography we were within 6 weeks of getting their surrender. But Cronkite gave comfort and aid to our enemies back then, and we had our win stolen. I have loathed the media ever since. Woodward and Bernstein and their boss at the WaPo simply finished what Cronkite started.

Peter Navarro is uniquely qualified to provide an insider's account of the 2020 events that circumscribe the COVID crisis. He was a senior adviser to President Trump during the campaign and through Trump's term in office on economic matters as assistant to the president and the director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy. Dr. Navarro graduated from Tufts, then got an MBA in Public Administration and a Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard. Dr. Navarro has published more than a dozen books on economic and foreign policy.

At law, fraud is a very specific act requiring that the person charged with fraud knowingly makes a false statement intending that people rely on it. The fraud becomes actionable if people do rely on it to their detriment. The falsehood can be from commission (telling an affirmative lie) or omission (suppressing a critical fact). From the moment Trump entered the White House, chipmunk-cheeked Rep. Adam Schiff (D. Hollyweird), has been defrauding the American people with one lie after another. Schiff’s latest fraudulent act as part of his role on the Soviet-style show trial that is the January 6 committee was to doctor a text message

President Kamala Harris. When the prospect is raised, people of either political party shudder. But President Harris may be coming to a theater near you. President Joe Biden is a faltering soul. His unfortunate state is not due to overwork (First Lady Jill claims Joe toils for the country 24/7). No, Joe falters due to early entry into old age. Joe strains mightily to read a teleprompter. His handlers tell him to just read the damn words and don't insert any of his own. Joe faithfully complies. With squinting eyes and monotone voice he recites every word scrolled. Including “end of quote.
Steven Spielberg's 'West Side Story' sees

Full disclosure: I despise Steven Spielberg movies and dislike both Romeo and Juliet and the 1961 West Side Story (WSS) movie. For that reason, I take particular delight in noting that Steven Spielberg's remake of WSS may have enthralled critics, but no one is rushing to see it. And no wonder, given that it's so darn woke that parts of it are in a language most Americans don't speak, but Spielberg refused to include subtitles. Let me quickly get through my biases. I hate Steven Spielberg movies because I find them overblown, predictable, and incredibly boring. I also dislike the way he presents children.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. dissects identifies and exposes the evil influences that produced the COVID response and explains the danger of "regulatory capture" of government alphabet agencies and the globalist strategies that created the inappropriate and unprecedented COVID response. Kennedy exposes the mendacious nature of Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci in his ambitious and thorough 480-page book with more than two thousand references. The book is far-ranging and thorough and covers the Faucet's career and serial malfeasance that goes back to the 1980s. It also explains the growth of the public health global pharma edifice that has hijacked health care and the Fauci-orchestrated COVID response

I shall soon be heading back to my beloved desert to spend about 14 hours a day on a bike in order to deal with all of the carbohydrates consumed during my time away. Seriously, I should probably avoid beer until either Joe Biden or Kamala Harris are out of office.

Pete Buttigieg is a lazy, ineffectual empty suit with a sonorous voice. His "husband" (a term I put in quotations because I will forever believe that marriage is a heterosexual institution) is even worse. This useless degree jockey put out a tweet on Sunday making it clear that he feels it's an imposition that he should be called upon to repay his student loans. That's bad. What's really bad is when you discover what those loans were for and what he's done with himself since school. Chasten received a notice telling him that Joe Biden was finally ending the COVID moratorium on repaying student loans.

A jury has now confirmed what police (local, state, and federal), Dave Chappelle, and you knew all along: that Jussie Smollett perpetrated a fake hate crime, hung his friends out to dry, and tried to blame everything on Donald Trump. Jussie may as well have said, “But … but … but … MAGA! But Trump! C’mon, guys, don’t you believe me?” It turns out that the only ones who believed Jussie Smollett’s fake “beating” by his accomplices were Black Lives Matter because the group hates the police more than it hates lying to the American people.

More than eleven months have elapsed since the events at the Capitol, January 6, 2021 — and many people arrested in connection with that physical intrusion into the Capitol building are still held in pre-trial confinement. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) has published a report on her visit to the D.C. jail, with Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-Texas) on November 4. The Greene Report points out that the tour was hastily arranged by the office of the mayor after previous attempts by the representatives to visit the January 6 detainees — held for months without trial — had been denied.

When I was in medical school, I had the privilege of working in a large inner-city hospital, located right between two rival gangs. There were no emergency room residents, so trauma was handled by the general surgery residents. As such, I had firsthand views of some significant trauma. Each “emergency room” was basically curtains separating a large open space into cubicles. One day, a report came over the radio, we would receive a wounded officer and a wounded gang member. The officer was unfortunately shot in the back and paralyzed, the gang member shot in the knee, but otherwise fine.

Sonia Sotomayor, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, raised eyebrows and cast doubt on her fitness for her elevated office during oral arguments over the pending Mississippi abortion case, Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health. Constitutional scholars were taken aback by her injection of politics: “Will this institution survive the stench that this creates in the public perception – that the Constitution and its reading are just political acts?” Sotomayor asked. “I don’t see how it is possible.” And her casual rejection of the Constitution as the arbiter of Supreme Court decision-making:

The coronavirus will hit millions of Americans in a "viral blizzard" within a few weeks as infections from the Omicron variant pile on top of Delta, an expert predicts. Already, hospitalizations are rising as the holiday season gets into full swing. Long lines for Covid-19 testing formed Thursday in metro areas, including New York, Boston and Miami. The Delta variant remains a problem. And Omicron, with its high transmissibility, could strike millions more soon, said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.

He’s 80 years old and has been serving in political positions since 1992, almost thirty years. Generally, you hear a lot of retirements after the holidays.
