Don’t let the media get away with U-turning on the lab leak theory (Or Dr Fauci) (spectator.us)

The media got away with 4 years of 'TRUMP=RUSSIA'. They got away with calling BLM riots 'mostly peaceful', they got away with being wrong about just about every single major event of the last 5-6 years.

We are long past the point of the media being accountable. Trump had 4 years to something. Ted Cruz had 4 years to do something. They both did nothing.

Trump did and accomplished an awful lot and was and still is continually persecuted for it at every turn. Seriously! Are you blind sir?!?

I’ve said this before, assuming one person can change a corrupt government is as stupid as believing the wuhan virus came out of nature. Trump failed because he believed that like a business you could weed out shitty elements and that the workforce had the country’s best interests in mind.

He was undermined literally every step of the way, most egregiously by his own "side" and party.

I have my share of criticisms of him, but its amazing how much he got done fighting that many people every single time.

The problem for Trump was that there weren't enough of "his people" in government. He had to work with obstructionist Neocons because the actual Conservatives and Libertarians weren't there and have been sitting on their arses for too long.

It took him 4 years to even acknowledge BLM as a marxist threat. It took him 4 years to even mention section 230.

When it comes to the culture war, he was asleep at the wheel.

you know they would've called mr. trump a racist the INSTANT he called BLM a marxist threat and they would have shoved it up black folk's ass until the hood sang like they did for george floyd.

They were calling him a racist before he was even president.

they would have shoved it up black folk's ass until the hood sang like they did for george floyd.

They did all of this anyway. What could they have possibly done that they weren't doing already? Nothing.

I don't know, I recall some Antifa goons messing the CNN headquarters in Atlanta a few years back during one of the "protests". They aren't beyond being held to account, we just haven't done anything that would accomplish that goal because doing so would be outside the bounds of the law, which the Left has absolutely no qualms about. It's why they've been winning frankly.

Not quite, the left has been winning cause their law breaking has no consequences for them...if we did the same the book would be thrown at us.

They haven't got away with it though, it's just more low key than many would like. Their ratings and overall trust for the media has gone down the toilet. Defund the BBC is now far from an unpopular sentiment in Britain.

We are watching the train wreck in slow motion, essentially.
