Remember when the Wall Street Journal tried to run a piece on Joe Biden's decline, and was blasted by other media sources?
The entire media may or may have not been aware - but they did attack anyone who reported on the issues, instead of investigating further.
This is covered in the book.
You pat yourself on the back because you can see how outrageous Trump is, like Liz Cheney and a handful of others. But you refuse to acknowledge the damaging delusions of the pro-Trump GOP.....but it's not the conservative who left the GOP to become a Trump critic for the past decade.
The MSM's "abuses" don't begin to touch the rightwing media's complete abandonment of journalistic responsibility.Sure. It's just also no longer the left wing's friend. This isn't a zero game where FOX setting it's credibility on fire means that somehow the MSM's abuses cease to exist.
What? Tapper questioned Biden's decline? How is that possible in the far-left, socialist MSM?????? How is Tapper still employed? Who are the Tappers of the right-wing media?Tapper himself started down the line of questioning Biden's decline after the SOTU, and people got very mad at him for it. So, he switched back until after the NYT came out with their post-debate editorial and it was "Safe" for a leftist in good standing to Say Something.
Your spin on them could only be convincing to someone who has marinated in far-right misinformation.Bro. All of those examples happened.
Lies are not "data," and treating them as such is a disservice to the audience. That's the rub. It's taken the MSM years to finally start calling the right's constant lies what they truly are.Aye, there's the rub. You want not the data, but commentary. You want the narrative.?
I guess you missed the entire 2020 election. Never mind then.Are you trolling me right now?
Remember Whitewater? That was, what -50? - front page articles in the NYT? As opposed to Bush and Cheney lying about WMD? Which one of those led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people?Remember Abu Ghraib? That was, what - 50? - front page articles in the NYTimes? As opposed to the Kill Squad under Obama... which had.... zero ?
I remember when this kind of thing would be a major scandal. Now it's just business as usual.Tapper himself started down the line of questioning Biden's decline after the SOTU, and people got very mad at him for it. So, he switched back until after the NYT came out with their post-debate editorial and it was "Safe" for a leftist in good standing to Say Something.
No, I don't. A citation would be nice, including the WSJ's piece and the subsequent "blasts."Remember when the Wall Street Journal tried to run a piece on Joe Biden's decline, and was blasted by other media sources?
The entire media attacked anyone who reported on the issues. Hmm. I doubt it.The entire media may or may have not been aware - but they did attack anyone who reported on the issues, instead of investigating further.
A book written by a member of the MSM, right?This is covered in the book.
One side plays the tribalist game far better than the other. The MSM's media's determination not to appear biased constantly gets in the way of reporting reality.One of us here is definitely still trapped in tribalist dogma, and unable to accept new information that clashes with his preferred vision of reality.....
No, I don't. A citation would be nice, including the WSJ's piece and the subsequent "blasts."
Not the entire media.The entire media attacked anyone who reported on the issues. Hmm. I doubt it.
For sure. Is that a problem?A book written by a member of the MSM, right?
OK? Weird.We don't need any books by, say, Sean Hannity, do we? We already know exactly what it would say.

The MSM's "abuses" don't begin to touch the rightwing media's complete abandonment of journalistic responsibility.
Oh, wow, what a blast. One opinion piece, that points out an obvious fault in the WSJ's report, which was the obvious bias of their sources.
For those who insist that the MSM is uniformly biased, yes.For sure. Is that a problem?
Don't pull a muscle pretending to miss the point.OK? Weird.
I never said the left is perfect. But continued attempts to equate the two gives the anti-democratic forces a pass.Again. One side's abuses don't mean the other's didn't happen. Nor is one side's abuses somehow made less because you find the other's more offensive.
The MSM is biased toward science.Jeffrey Dahmer was a mass murderer and sexual predator who also ate people. Derek Chauvin callously kneeled on a man's neck until he killed him. Chauvin doesn't get to walk into court and declare that Since Dahmer's Crimes Were Worse He Shouldn't Be Considered Guilty Of His Own, Or Should At Least Get A Reduced Sentence. That so much of Right Wing Media has proven willing to be dishonest does not somehow by zero-sum alchemy make the MSM not left-wing biased. willing to suppress tribally inconvenient narratives
"Dishonest" means intentionally lying. I've seen no examples of that.and occasionally also dishonest.
So you dislike presidents who lie? Is that your point?
Get back to me when you can even acknowledge Biden had cognitive issues.So you dislike presidents who lie? Is that your point?
Or are you trying to equate Joe Biden to Donald Trump?
Good luck with that.
Yes, this is just one easily verified example of what the authors of the book have laid out.Oh, wow, what a blast. One opinion piece, that points out an obvious fault in the WSJ's report, which was the obvious bias of their sources.
Well go bug them.For those who insist that the MSM is uniformly biased, yes.
First you acknowledge that the 2020 election wasn't "stolen," that climate change is real, that Trump sold out Ukraine because he likes tyrants better than leaders who were democratically elected, and that Jan 6 was an attempted coup.Get back to me when you can even acknowledge Biden had cognitive issues.
Worse than that, the assholes who hid it (some members of his staff and family members) enabled the return of Trump to the White House, an unmitigated disaster for our nation and the world.Hiding Joe Biden's decline, and attacking people who pointed it out, was dumb. Those people ****ed around and now they are finding out.
It's more fun bugging you.Well go bug them.
Reagan had far more serious problems. He was hands off type POTUS from day one and his admin ran amok. Stockman used to use flashcards for Reagan to get him to make decisions. People used to leave his cabinet meetings wondering what he said or meant. We've had mentally or physically handicapped presidents before.What's he running for again?
Also, where are the threads about the end of Reagan's second term? He was diagnosed with Alzheimer's pretty soon after leaving office. I'd hate to think that the far right wingers who have been all over Biden today might be displaying some hypocrisy and are just shitting on Biden for partisan reasons while not being consistent.
People get old if they're lucky and have decent immune systems that can find and kill cancerous cells before they become a serious problem. However, some degree of mental decline is likely as one becomes elderly.Reagan had far more serious problems. He was hands off type POTUS from day one and his admin ran amok.

Sounds awful. Did the economy tank? Did essential freedoms die? Were people pulled off the streets by ununiformed officers and tossed into unmarked vehicles to be whisked away without due process? Did essential aid to desperate people around the globe get yanked away for no reason but to stick it to the libs? Were our world-class medical research centers gutted by idiots who think vitamin E is better than vaccines? Were our educational institutions attacked because things were being taught that hurt the feelings of bigots? Was NATO's belief in America as a bulwark against tyranny shattered? Was America's standing as a leader of free markets destroyed? Was the status of the dollar as the world's reserve currency attacked?
Do tell.
Tapper himself started down the line of questioning Biden's decline after the SOTU, and people got very mad at him for it. So, he switched back until after the NYT came out with their post-debate editorial and it was "Safe" for a leftist in good standing to Say Something.

The MSM is biased toward science.
The MSM is biased against bigotry.
The MSM is biased toward women's freedom to choose, but not to the point that they lie in their reporting.
The MSM is biased against denying the holocaust.
The MSM is biased toward honest portrayals of American history.
The MSM is biased toward honest economic analysis.
The MSM employs serious journalists who feel a responsibility to the truth and to their readers who demand factual reporting.
"Dishonest" means intentionally lying. I've seen no examples of that.
