Isn't it staggering that if this had happened when Trump was in office it would have been on every single headline in the country -- as well as a major focus of the 24 hour news cycle on every channel?
Even this far in, and these fanatic douche bags are still running cover for Biden.
It's pure zealotry at this point. I can't think of any other way to describe the way the media continues to obfuscate and cover for this clown.
The crazy part is I'm sure that the family was hoping to send a powerful message, and the the media decided that the people didn't need to hear it. Yet, this same media wants to pretend they support the troops and the people? Get the hell outta here.
The media states that the media is a virtuous, vital part of a functioning democracy.
The last four years of media-driven TDS has, I think, shown what they truly are, but I expect they'll demand a substantial quid pro quo for keeping as much heat as they can off Biden. Look for Silicon Valley to go nuts over the next couple of years, I guess, or state handouts to media in the Canada vein.
I've said it before: they are, at best: shitty, for-profit, privately funded intelligence agencies.
They are not even close to that right now.
They are unprofitable, semi-public, propaganda firms that a swath of America doesn't even believe.
They are a part of "Democracy" though. The mass media is necessary to create a People's State where the state is the people and the people are the state. Which is why the final form of a Democracy is a Totalitarian Dictatorship.
Definitely. As a whole, the egos on the people in media are just staggering. They truly believe themselves to be the gatekeepers of the truth -- even when they know they're lying.
It's pretty crazy that these people can so openly push certain agendas or beliefs and still think that they can maintain their credibility. Especially in this day and age, where the media can be fact-checked in real time.
That idea gnaws at them and they hate it, so they immediately label any who question them as some -ist or -phobe; however, the signs were there the moment they removed comment sections from all of their websites that their primary concern was controlling the narrative -- not speaking the truth.
This is one of the primary reasons that the media has switched it's stance in the last few years on free speech.
They now advocate for speech restrictions and hide behind sophistry such as "we need to stop the spread of misinformation!" What they really mean to say is that they want to stop people questioning them, because more often than not, those people preaching "misinformation" tend to be correct in the end.
It's also why they're ardent supporters of Big Tech censorship as well. It all serves to empower themselves so that they can have control over information.

Big tech will be a huge obstacle in the future. I'm normally not one for Government intervention, but it's become blindingly apparent that Big Tech has too much power and influence in our current country and society. They need to be regulated in a similar manner to how oil/railroad monopolies were during the industrial revolution.

They are the enemy of the Republic though.
Even their weather reports are just more propaganda segments. Who still watches to this crap, boomers?
Pretty much. Watching daytime TV is like an alternate plane of existence.
