Former member of President Bill Clinton’s administration and longtime ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos prodded Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to take a second shot at impeaching President Donald Trump.
Schiff, who chairs the powerful House Intelligence Committee, appeared on ABC’s “This Week,” on Sunday to discuss his usual talking points about Trump and Russia. During the conversation, Stephanopoulos quoted James Madison’s speech from the 1788 Constitutional Convention to push Schiff to impeach Trump for commuting Roger Stone’s sentence.
“If the President be connected, in any suspicious manner, with any person, and there be grounds to believe he will shelter him, the House of Representatives can impeach him, they can remove him if found guilty,” Stephanopoulos quoted from Madison before asking Schiff, “Is this an impeachable offense?”
As NewsBusters <a href="https://newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/ryan-foley/2020/07/13/ex-democratic-hack-stephanopoulos-pushes-democrat-schiff-support">reported</a>, Stephanopoulos also referenced Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who said, “the President and Stone can still be indicted once Donald Trump leaves office.” Stephanopoulos then asked Schiff if presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden should “ask his Attorney General to take that step if he indeed does become president?”
Schiff did not commit to impeaching Trump again but did fall back on his old talking points about Trump being worse than President Richard Nixon and Watergate. He claimed Trump “urged the Russians to hack Hillary’s e-mails,” referencing a joke Trump made in 2016 during a campaign rally. Schiff also continued to push the idea that Trump’s 2016 campaign colluded with Russia to steal the election, even though a two-year special counsel investigation found <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-cleared-no-collusion-no-obstruction-no-ryan-saavedra">no such collusion</a>.
“According to Schiff, what Trump did was actually worse than any actions Nixon took because ‘the Republicans at that time would not have stood for this and Nixon understood that.’ Schiff contrasted the Republicans of the Watergate era with the Republicans of today, who ‘won’t defend the rule of law,’” NewsBusters reported. “As the segment continued, Schiff mentioned that he warned Republicans during the impeachment process that ‘the damage he could do between now and Election Day could be severe’ if he was not removed from office. At this point, Schiff blamed Trump for the deaths of 130,000 Americans because of coronavirus.”
Stephanopoulos did not push back on any of Schiff’s claims.
As NewsBusters noted, it is a similar tactic Stephanopoulos took two weeks ago when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) <a href="https://newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2020/06/28/abc-clinton-lackey-refuses-call-out-pelosis-crazy-conspiracy">appeared on the same program</a> to spout her own Trump-Russia conspiracy theories.
“Just as I have said to the President with him, all roads lead to Putin. He will not &#8230; I don&#8217;t know what the Russians have on the President politically, personally, financially, or whatever it is,” Pelosi said in reference to a New York Times report quoting anonymous officials who claimed Trump ignored intelligence that Russia was paying the Taliban to kill American troops. “Because the President wants to ignore any allegation against Russia. As I&#8217;ve said to him in that meeting when I&#8217;m pointing to him in a blue suit, ‘with you Mr. President, all roads lead to Putin.’”
Stephanopoulos did not push back or demand any evidence for Pelosi’s claims.

Media Bias

Russia

In a &#8220;fact check&#8221; published on Saturday, USA Today claimed to &#8220;confirm&#8221; rumors that President Donald Trump&#8217;s re-election campaign was selling merchandise emblazoned with a &#8220;Nazi symbol,&#8221; the &#8220;Imperial Eagle.&#8221; By Sunday night, however, after being fully embarrassed on social media, the paper walked back their claims.
The &#8220;fact check&#8221; came in response to claims made by two Twitter accounts, Bend the Curve, a left-leaning anti-Semitism watchdog account, and The Lincoln Project, a Republican anti-Trump political action group. The two organizations both noted that Trump&#8217;s campaign was selling shirts featuring a design with a right-facing eagle, with outstretched wings, holding a medallion in its talons.
Both groups claimed the symbol was associated with the Nazi Party.
&#8220;The President of the United States is campaigning for reelection with a Nazi symbol. Again,&#8221; Bend the Arc tweeted.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
The President of the United States is campaigning for reelection with a Nazi symbol. Again.
On the left: an official Trump/Pence “America First” tee.
On the right; the Iron Eagle, the official symbol of the Nazi party. ⁰It’s not an accident. Bigotry is their entire brand. <a href="https://t.co/mSOBxwf7Wa">pic.twitter.com/mSOBxwf7Wa</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
In a Facebook post, a Trump critic added that Trump&#8217;s campaign was now &#8220;selling straight-up nazi propaganda shirts.&#8221;
The shirt, though, appears to actually reference the &#8220;Great Seal of America,&#8221; a symbol adopted in the 1780s to represent the American experiment, according to the State Department, and used liberally by the federal government across hundreds of departments. Most notably, it&#8217;s used in the official seal of the Office of the President &#8212; the office Donald Trump currently holds and hopes to retain in November.
&#8220;The eagle is widely used in American political imagery,&#8221; USA Today itself points out. &#8220;The office of the American president and many Cabinet-level offices have official seals that also incorporate an eagle as the central design.&#8221;
But, the paper notes, eagles are also associated with Nazi Germany.
&#8220;The Nazi eagle was developed by the German Nazi Party in Germany in the 1920s, and became a symbol of the government after the party took power. It was derived from the German coat of arms,&#8221; USA Today points out. &#8220;The Reichsadler, which translates to “Imperial Eagle,” was derived from the Holy Roman Empire’s coat of arms.&#8221;
That eagle is still used in the official seal of the German government but now without the swastika.
Ultimately, USA Today decided the Trump campaign was going for the Nazi eagle, not the American one.
&#8220;The claims that a Trump campaign T-shirt has come under criticism for using a symbol similar to a Nazi eagle is TRUE, based on our research.&#8221;
Social media users quickly fired back.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) compared the USA Today fact check to an article in the satirical news outlet, The Onion.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
This “clarification” reads like The Onion.

The paper later returned to social media to issue a clarification.
&#8220;Clarification: The claim that Trump 2020 has put out a T-shirt with a symbol similar to a Nazi eagle and is being criticized for it is true. Worth noting, the eagle is a longtime US symbol, too.&#8221;
That is, in fact, worth noting.

NEWS: JAN 09 Trump Rally

FAIL: USA Today Fact Check Claims Trump Campaign Using ‘Nazi’ Symbolism, Faceplants Spectacularly

2020 Election

Nazis

New York Times columnist Tom Friedman&#8217;s proposal that Joe Biden shouldn&#8217;t debate President Donald Trump unless &#8220;a real-time fact-checking team&#8221; is part of the mix is an ironic illustration of the closed-mindedness of the left.
Why would Friedman want a candidate who is eager to contrast his views with Trump&#8217;s to impose conditions that would make a debate less likely, unless, of course, Friedman realizes that the failing Biden would be particularly disastrous in a debate?
That seems to be the case here, as Friedman&#8217;s other condition — that Trump agree to release his tax returns for 2016 through 2018 — is just as unrealistic but not for the reason Democrats would have you believe. It&#8217;s not that they think Trump is concealing some sinister criminality but that the returns would be a gold mine for ginning up class resentment against the mega-wealthy Trump and fodder to smear him with innuendo.
Friedman recommends the fact-checkers be approved by both candidates &#8220;and that 10 minutes before the scheduled conclusion of the debate this team report on any misleading statements, phony numbers or outright lies either candidate had uttered. That way no one in that massive television audience can go away easily misled.&#8221;
He arrogantly implies that his candidate — Biden — would automatically win in a truth contest. But why should anyone assume the confessed plagiarist and policy chameleon would have an advantage here?
The answer is that Friedman knows, perhaps subconsciously, that any such process would be rigged. Like so many terms in the liberal lexicon, &#8220;fact-checker&#8221; doesn&#8217;t mean what progressives want you to think it means.
Invariably, fact-checkers are adjuncts of the liberal media who depict opinions as facts, such as a conservative&#8217;s assertion (or progressive&#8217;s denial) that we have a crisis on the southern border. At one point, the network-news broadcasts were pregnant with panting anchors apoplectic over the claim and dubbed it an outright lie. As conditions at the border steadily deteriorated to undeniable crisis levels, we heard no retraction from Democrats, much less from the opinion-checkers.
We shouldn&#8217;t ignore Friedman&#8217;s ludicrous proposal simply because it will never be adopted, as it provides a window into the progressive mind. Many progressives are frighteningly narrow-minded, intellectually cloistered and authoritarian. They tend to believe their opinions are facts (or so morally superior that they ought to be treated as such) and so are justified in censoring opposing views as inarguably false, immoral, offensive or politically incorrect.
In institutions they dominate, such as academia and Hollywood (or bar associations), they get to define what is offensive and then ban it — by diktat. For example, Cambridge University rescinded a speaking invitation for psychologist Jordan Peterson because of his skepticism about white privilege and climate change. Compounding foolishness with absurdity, the censors claimed they disinvited him to promote an &#8220;inclusive environment.&#8221;
Similarly, some state bar associations now require, as part of the continuing legal education lawyers must imbibe to retain their licenses, a course in diversity, inclusion and anti-bias. Attorneys must sit through the propaganda, during which certain debatable assumptions are treated as fact and the progressive agenda is advanced. One presenter admonished his captive audience to consider the possibility of bias in every aspect of their law practice — that they should always be mindful of it as they tackle any legal problem, presumably even those that couldn&#8217;t remotely touch on the subject. How&#8217;s that for thought control?
One takeaway from these examples and hundreds more is that the left, at its core, lacks confidence that its views could prevail in the marketplace of ideas, and so it manipulates the playing field. We see this in its support for the destruction of monuments and erasing our history because it wants to control not only the current narrative but also the historical one.
Friedman&#8217;s fearlessness of fact-checkers doesn&#8217;t mean he&#8217;s confident that Trump&#8217;s dishonesty and Biden&#8217;s truthfulness will be exposed but that today&#8217;s&#8221; fact-checkers&#8221; will almost always come down on the side of progressives. Progressives are so used to controlling the narrative that they&#8217;re confident their subjective ideas will be presented as factual. Perhaps even scarier is that they think their opinions are objectively true.
Why must they control people and their thoughts? Why can&#8217;t they allow people to draw their own lessons from history instead of purging it? Why are they afraid of debate viewers deciding for themselves whether Trump&#8217;s or Biden&#8217;s ideas are more compelling and truthful?
How often do conservatives propose that we erase evidence of our history? That we ban certain speech because they find it offensive? Do conservative business owners ever send employees to sensitivity training because their views aren&#8217;t conservative enough?
Tom Friedman&#8217;s laughable idea is no laughing matter because he represents the authoritarian progressive mindset. That many such progressives sincerely believe their ideas are superior isn&#8217;t the problem. The problem is that they want to limit your freedom to oppose them.

LIMBAUGH: The Authoritarian Left Fears A Level Playing Field

Joe Biden

The July 6 Washington Post carried a typically colorful headline on top of the Style section. &#8220;A binder full of bombast: Kayleigh McEnany plays her boss and his base with derisive news briefing walk-offs.&#8221;
Media reporter Paul Farhi wrote McEnany&#8217;s &#8220;would-be smackdowns seemed so orchestrated&#8221; they only lacked some kind of musical flourish, like the opening witticisms that lead into the theme song on the crime drama &#8220;CSI: Miami.&#8221;
McEnany flourished again later that day, noting: &#8220;I was asked probably 12 questions about the Confederate flag. This President is focused on action. I&#8217;m a little dismayed that I didn&#8217;t receive one question on the deaths that we got in this country this weekend.&#8221; She wasn&#8217;t asked &#8220;about New York City shootings doubling for the third straight week, and over the last seven days shooting skyrocket by 142%.&#8221; Reporters groaned and protested.
For analysis of this tactic, Farhi turned to Ryan Lizza, the chief Washington correspondent of Politico. Lizza said these mic drops create delight for Trump and &#8220;the universe of Trump-friendly websites&#8221; who turn these commentaries into clips &#8220;for the MAGA-sphere.&#8221; That&#8217;s true. McEnany&#8217;s commentaries are great clickbait for people who want to see arrogant reporters get a dose of their own medicine.
But is Lizza really an objective observer? He then claimed: &#8220;We used to have this quaint idea that the press secretary wasn&#8217;t just a mouthpiece for the president, that half of the job was serving the press and the public. &#8230; That model is gone now. Now it&#8217;s almost pure theater, and (she&#8217;s serving) the negative partisanship that drives all else.&#8221;
Lizza isn&#8217;t being honest, because he represents &#8220;pure theater&#8221; and &#8220;negative partisanship&#8221; from the other side of the exchange. On May 26, he asked McEnany this beanball question repeatedly: &#8220;We&#8217;re about to cross the 100,000 dead American milestone &#8230; on Election Day, what does the White House view the number of dead Americans where you can say that you successfully defeated this pandemic? Is there a number?&#8221;
Recently, Lizza asked her facetiously, &#8220;Does President Trump believe that it was a good thing that the South lost the Civil War?&#8221;
Lizza&#8217;s live-in girlfriend, Olivia Nuzzi of New York Magazine, beat him to the sleazy punch when she asked Trump on April 27, &#8220;If an American president loses more Americans over the course of six weeks than died in the entirety of the Vietnam War, does he deserve to be reelected?&#8221;
This kind of question is performance art. It&#8217;s a look-at-me spectacle, a Jim Acosta bump and grind. There&#8217;s nothing &#8220;quaint&#8221; about it.
Farhi closed out this article with the expertise of Jennifer Mercieca, described merely as &#8220;an associate professor at Texas A&amp;M who specializes in rhetoric and public affairs.&#8221; McEnany&#8217;s &#8220;leave-taking behavior&#8221; points to &#8220;how adversarial the relationship between the press secretary and the press is at present,&#8221; she says. &#8220;The abrupt ending signals a lack of respect for the press, especially after she has berated their reporting.&#8221;
The Post didn&#8217;t note that Mercieca has a brand-new book about Trump called &#8220;Demagogue for President.&#8221; Its dust cover promises she will show, as one review reads, &#8220;how a bombastic pitchman emerged as America&#8217;s authoritarian PT Barnum, using nothing more than his weaponized words to transform a polarized and dispirited nation into his own reality TV show.&#8221;
This would seem to signal a lack of respect for the president — or the ringmaster/dictator, in her overactive imagination. This book sounds like quite a &#8220;binder full of bombast.&#8221; But The Washington Post is pretending that political bombast is a one-way street &#8230; like no one ever reads its front page.

GRAHAM: The Press Secretary Puts Down Bombastic Reporters

Washington Post

Nandini Jammi, an instrumental part of the liberal ad-targeting group Sleeping Giants, is splitting from the organization over a what she says is a lack of credit for her contributions.
Jammi, who works in marketing, wrote a roughly 2,400-word <a href="https://medium.com/@nandoodles/im-leaving-sleeping-giants-but-not-because-i-want-to-d9c4f488642">blog post</a> Wednesday on Medium. Explaining why she was quitting the group she had been a part of almost since its inception as an anonymous Twitter account in 2016, she claimed Matt Rivitz, an ad industry veteran and original creator of Sleeping Giants, increasingly sidelined her and downplayed her contributions in numerous media interviews.
“Without my knowledge, my story was being defined by someone else — a white man who could use his platform to exclude me, diminish me, or disappear me entirely. He never once invited me to join him. I never had any idea he was doing any of these interviews until it was too late,” Jammi wrote.
Rivitz created the Sleeping Giants Twitter account on Nov. 16, 2016, to campaign against advertisers touting their products on platforms that share “hateful” content. Before the end of the month, Jammi joined Rivitz and agreed to run the campaign’s Facebook page while he controlled its Twitter.
Since its founding, Sleeping Giants has led or pushed boycott movements against Breitbart News, Bill O’Reilly, Fox News host Tucker Carlson, and others. The rupture between two of its leading activists comes as the group is pushing an advertiser boycott against Facebook for not restricting more content, largely from right-wing sources.
The schism between Rivitz and Jammi began after <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2018/07/16/sleeping-giants-founder-rivitz/">The Daily Caller News Foundation</a> outed Rivitz as Sleeping Giants’ founder in July 2018. Two days later, the pair spoke openly about their involvement in the organization with <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/20/business/media/sleeping-giants-breitbart-twitter.html">The New York Times</a>.
For the article, Jammi requested she be named as a “cofounder” of the group, but Rivitz shot down her request and said she would be identified as a “member of Sleeping Giants,” according to <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/meghara/nandini-jammi-leaving-sleeping-giants">BuzzFeed News</a>.
“For better or worse, every organization needs a leader and that role in Sleeping Giants has belonged to me, regardless of title,” Rivitz told BuzzFeed.
“Given that we never discussed her title previously, I was definitely surprised to hear that she had named herself cofounder,” Rivitz said. “As I did not believe that was her role, having come on after I had already established the campaign, I corrected the record according to this belief.”
Rivitz went on to conduct numerous media appearances, interviews, and talks as the founder of Sleeping Giants. Jammi complained to Rivitz of being “sidelined” in an Aug. 12, 2018 email.
“In the NYT, you’re founder and I’m an early partner. In AdWeek, you’re founder and I’m a helper. In WaPo, you’re founder and I’m one of 10 helpers,” Jammi wrote, according to a screenshot of the email in her Medium post. “I’m starting to feel wary of being sidelined. I’m wary that this above ambiguity could keep me from realizing my ambitions and the impact I want to have as a pro marketer/WOC in my space.”
Rivitz replied that he felt “horrible about this and had no idea,” according to BuzzFeed. He took the title of “cofounder” off the table since he was already the founder, but gave her wide authority to pick another title. The two agreed she would be a “founding organizer.”
Rivitz and Jammi’s relationship began sliding after Rivitz accepted an award on behalf of Sleeping Giants at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity in France in June 2019. Jammi felt slighted after previously asking Rivitz that she be informed about and invited to participate in any big awards or media appearances for Sleeping Giants. She learned of the Cannes award from posts on Rivitz’s Instagram.
Jammi then posted a series of sarcastic and critical messages on social media directed at Rivitz. The feud came to a head in a phone call in which Rivitz questioned whether Jammi was a part of Sleeping Giants for the mission or to raise her own profile.
Afterwards, Jammi began marketing herself as a “cofounder” of Sleeping Giants and doing more press appearances herself. The two went about seven months after the call with minimal contact until a January call in which Rivitz attempted to repair the broken relationship.
“The simple act of calling myself co-founder changed so much. People looked up to me as a leader and respected what I had to say. Doors were opening and I had a pathway into the adtech industry that allowed me to start building the next thing,” Jammi wrote.
She decided to break with Rivitz completely after learning from him that he was working on a new campaign with the Anti-Defamation League and had left her out of the talks.
“Once again, he was leaving me out of the room,” Jammi wrote. “I’m sorry I have to leave Sleeping Giants. There was always space for both of us, just not on this campaign.”
Rivitz did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Liberal Boycott Group ‘Cofounder’ Splits After White Male Partner Tried To ‘Disappear’ Her

Facebook

Twitter

As you already know, we’ve descended into full idiocy. The world — with its cancel culture and PC police, its race riots and pandemic panic — has gone insane, and there’s no end in sight.
Think that’s hyperbole? Then consider this: CNN wants to ban such “racist” words and phrases as “blackball,” “sold down the river,” “whitelist” and, of course, “master bedroom.” The liberal cable network notes that the term “master bedroom” first appeared in 1926 — 63 years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves — but adds this wonderful line, “While it’s unclear whether the term is rooted in American slavery on plantations, it evokes that history.”
What’s the point of all the madness, you ask? It’s all to discredit President Trump, which CNN and most every liberal “news” outlet has been painting as a blatant racist since before he moved into the White House.
And for CNN, it’s a game they play openly and brazenly.
Case in point: Trump’s visit to Mount Rushmore on Independence Day weekend. CNN called the massive carved sculptures of Lincoln, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Teddy Roosevelt a “monument of two slave owners” on “land wrestled away from Native Americans.”
But the monument was something very different when Democratic President Barack Obama visited the monument.
“Barack Obama is campaigning in South Dakota,” CNN anchor Ron Marciano said in 2008. “That state’s primary is Tuesday. Obama arrived there late last night and got a good look around Mount Rushmore — it’s quite a sight if you haven’t seen it.”
“Barack Obama is in South Dakota today,” added fellow CNN anchor Betty Nguyen. “He arrived there last night. Take a look at this. He got a good glimpse of the majestic Mount Rushmore.”
On Friday, when Trump visited, somehow the site had morphed into a racist ode to slave owners.
“At a time of racial unease, when protesters are tearing down statues of slaveholders and calling for the names of Confederate generals to be removed from army bases, the Rushmore event is a reminder that Trump is fighting to preserve these relics of heritage and history that some see as symbols of oppression,” CNN’s Washington correspondent Joe Johns said. “And to indigenous people, Mount Rushmore, with four white presidents, two of whom were slave owners, is one of those symbols.”
CNN correspondent Leyla Santiago echoed the sentiment. “President Trump will be at Mount Rushmore, where he’ll be standing in front of a monument of two slave owners and on land wrestled away from Native Americans told that, uh, be focusing on the effort to ‘tear down our country’s history,’” she said.
During her report, a chyron on screen said, “Reexamining ‘Independence’ Day” (yes, the word “Independence” in quotes). And at the end, anchor Jake Tapper said simply: “All right. Leyla Santiago, with that report, thank you so much.”
CNN also turned to an “expert” — Sioux Falls Argus Leader columnist Stu Whitney — who said: “I think that is a source of concern for people that see this certainly within a state with a Native American population nearly 10% and much higher in Rapid City, concerned about a place that has a lot of spiritual significance. And historical significance when you look at what they and most historians consider to be broken promises and broken treaties.”
Many astute viewers caught the blatant two-faced bias. Trump campaign Deputy Director of Communications Zach Parkinson posted a video clip from 2016, when then-presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders visited the monument.
“In 2016, CNN’s Jeff Zeleny called Mount Rushmore a ‘monument to four great American presidents’ &#8230; Bernie Sanders said ‘this is our country at its very best,’ called it an ‘incredible achievement,’ and said it ‘really does make one very proud to be an American,’” Parkinson wrote on Twitter.
He added: “Fascinating how CNN called Mount Rushmore ‘majestic’ and ‘quite a sight’ in 2008 when Obama visited, but now it&#8217;s a symbol of slavery and stolen land.”

And he noted that CNN’s Jim Acosta — a longtime sufferer of Trump Derangement Syndrome — gushed when Obama visited Mount Rushmore, calling it in 2008 a “fitting stop for a presidential contender.”
Others chimed in. “Pursuant to the new moral stricture promulgated this week by the NYT &amp; CNN — that Mount Rushmore is a shameful monument to racism and white supremacy — both CNN and Bernie Sanders ought to repent for this praise they jointly heaped on it in 2016,” said Glenn Greenwald of The Intercept.

The answer: The president now is a Republican, not a Democrat.

CURL: CNN Exposes Deep Bias In Widely Different Coverage Of Trump, Obama Visits To Mount Rushmore

Barack Obama

Bernie Sanders

Mount Rushmore

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) unloaded on The New York Times on the Fourth of July for characterizing President Donald Trump’s speech at Mount Rushmore — where he unapologetically defended American principles, described the history of the four presidents depicted on the monument, and encouraged the country to live up to its ideals — as “dark and divisive” in nature.
President Donald Trump gave “a majestic speech before Mt. Rushmore, celebrating America &amp; recounting the magnificent champions for Liberty Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln &amp; Teddy Roosevelt,&#8221; said Cruz.
“He vows to defend America,” continued the Texas senator, who then pointed out that The New York Times characterized the speech as “dark &amp; divisive.” Cruz added: “We are living in parallel universes.”
“Only in the mind of deranged Leftists is defending Mt. Rushmore, Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, &amp; Teddy Roosevelt ‘leaning in to the culture wars.’ The culture warriors are the mobs burning our cities, defacing American heroes,” concluded Cruz.

As <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/media-outlets-describe-trumps-rushmore-speech-as-dark-and-divisive">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported, other mainstream media outlets have run stories about the president’s speech, framing it through the lens of division and not as an embrace of American principles and ideals and the founding of the country.
As Trump said during the speech:
<blockquote>We gather tonight to herald the most important day in the history of nations: July 4th, 1776. At those words, every American heart should swell with pride, every American family should cheer with delight, and every American patriot should be filled with joy, because each of you lives in the most magnificent country in the history of the world, and it will soon be greater than ever before.
Our Founders launched not only a revolution in government, but a revolution in the pursuit of justice, equality, liberty, and prosperity. No nation has done more to advance the human condition than the United States of America. And no people have done more to promote human progress than the citizens of our great nation.
&#8230;
And yet, as we meet here tonight, there is a growing danger that threatens every blessing our ancestors fought so hard for, struggled, they bled to secure.
Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values, and indoctrinate our children.</blockquote>
The Los Angeles Times accused Trump of using the “Fourth of July celebration to stoke a culture war.”

ABC News accused Trump of pushing for “racial division,” despite Trump explicitly saying during the speech that Americans “embrace tolerance, not prejudice” and that “we believe in equal opportunity, equal justice, and equal treatment for citizens of every race, background, religion, and creed.

Senate Impeachment Trial Of President Trump

‘We Are Living In Parallel Universes’: Ted Cruz Unloads On NYT Over Rushmore Speech Coverage

4th of July

New York Times

Ted Cruz

A litany of falsehoods and misleading headlines from the media has hounded President Trump from even before his inauguration. Many of these false claims range from the trivial to the dire. Here are some of the more egregious assertions put forth by the media.
1. Trump touted improved employment numbers as a “great day” for George Floyd
A favorite ploy by many in the media is to take Trump’s statements out of context then mock and deride him for it. <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/06/politics/trump-george-floyd-maine/index.html">The way CNN misconstrued his statements</a> on George Floyd is just another example:
<blockquote>President Donald Trump showed his breathtaking disconnect from the pain and tumult that has unfolded in this country after George Floyd&#8217;s death, declaring Friday that new economic numbers and nationwide protests against racism and police brutality had made it &#8220;a great day&#8221; for Floyd.</blockquote>
In fact, what Trump said was far more dignified, as a fact-check by <a href="https://factcheck.thedispatch.com/p/did-trump-say-he-hoped-george-floyd">The Dispatch</a> revealed. Here&#8217;s what Trump actually said:
<blockquote>Trump: Equal justice under the law must mean that every American receives equal treatment in every encounter with law enforcement, regardless of race, color, gender, or creed. They have to receive fair treatment from law enforcement. They have to receive it. We all saw what happened last week. We can’t let that happen. Hopefully George is looking down right now and saying, &#8220;This is a great thing that’s happening for our country.&#8221; This is a great day for him. It’s a great day for everybody. This is a great day for everybody. This is a great, great day in terms of equality. It’s really what our Constitution requires and it’s what our country is all about.</blockquote>
Context counts. What Trump said about Floyd was both generous and honorable and not at all some dismissive, self-serving remark.
2. Trump declared COVID-19 a hoax
Earlier this year, many news sites ran headlines stating that Trump had declared COVID-19 a hoax. <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/28/trump-says-the-coronavirus-is-the-democrats-new-hoax.html">CNBC ran with it</a> and even stated the following:
<blockquote>President Trump says that Democrats are using the virulent coronavirus as a &#8220;hoax&#8221; to damage him and his administration.</blockquote>
A media avalanche ensued, insisting that Trump considered the pandemic a hoax.
Amid the onslaught, <a href="https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-coronavirus-rally-remark/">Snopes</a> offered surprising clarity on the matter given the site’s general bias toward the left. Trump had only insisted that the Democrats&#8217; criticism of his response was, in fact, a hoax.
&#8220;In context, Trump did not say … that the virus itself was a hoax,&#8221; Snopes concluded. &#8220;He instead said that Democrats’ criticism of his administration’s response to it was a hoax.&#8221;
3. Trump claimed all Mexicans are drug dealers, rapists, and criminals
In 2016, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-37230916/drug-dealers-criminals-rapists-what-trump-thinks-of-mexicans">The BBC</a> ran a headline claiming that Trump considered all Mexicans criminals in some form or another. The content of the piece featured a heavily edited video featuring curated sound bytes from Trump during his campaign seemingly supporting the headline’s claim. <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/06/16/theyre-rapists-presidents-trump-campaign-launch-speech-two-years-later-annotated/">Other media outlets</a> ran with it as well.
As documented by <a href="https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2016/aug/08/tim-kaine/tim-kaine-falsely-says-trump-said-all-mexicans-are/">Politifact</a>, Trump actually stated the following:
<blockquote>Trump: When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you… They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.</blockquote>
Too broad a generalization on his part? Inaccurate even? Perhaps, but in no way was Trump declaring that all Mexicans were rapists and criminals. That was just yet another specious attempt at spin by the media. He made a point of saying that he assumes some are &#8220;good people.&#8221;
Trump’s condemnation of “rapists” followed multiple reports, like this <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/facing-risk-rape-migrant-women-prepare-birth-control">tragic PBS report</a> from 2014, on the horrific treatment of women and girls at the hands of “coyote” guides as they immigrate to America.
4. Trump referred to undocumented immigrants as “animals”
Trump supposedly referring to undocumented immigrants as “animals” is easily one of the more egregious examples of the media misleading the American public. It’s a lie that continues to hound the president as well. <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2018/05/16/trump-calls-undocumented-immigrants-animals-echoing/617762002/">USA Today</a> even went so far as to not only mislead its readers about the alleged claim, but used it to compare Trump to Adolf Hitler, slave owners, and the Hutus during the Rwandan genocide:
<blockquote>“These aren&#8217;t people. These are animals.&#8221; That&#8217;s how President Trump described undocumented immigrants during a White House meeting…Trump&#8217;s not the first to use such rhetoric: Adolf Hitler justified the Holocaust by saying Jews weren&#8217;t people but rats, <a href="https://www.npr.org/2011/03/29/134956180/criminals-see-their-victims-as-less-than-human">as NPR notes</a>. In the Rwandan genocide, Tutsis were called not people, but cockroaches [by the Hutus], and slaveowners justified slavery by calling their slaves not people, but animals.</blockquote>
In fact, Trump was specifically referring to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS-13">MS-13</a>, one of the most brutal, murderous criminal gangs in the entire world, in an exchange with Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims as detailed by <a href="https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-animals-hitler/">Snopes</a>:
<blockquote>According to a White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-california-sanctuary-state-roundtable/">transcript</a>, Mims referred to &#8220;bad guys&#8221; and specifically named the violent criminal gang MS-13 immediately before President Trump’s &#8220;animals&#8221; remarks…</blockquote>
Trump even clarified his statement a day later, though it seemingly fell on deaf ears. “I’m referring to the MS-13 gangs that are coming in,” said Trump.
5. The infamous photo of kids in cages
One of the more glaring problems with headlines or stories that end up being false is that the redactions later offered rarely achieve the same level of attention as the initial claim. In effect, the misleading claims hold true for many, especially when confirmation bias is so pernicious in today’s climate and fact-checking is at a premium.
<a href="https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/07/071019-obama-era-photo.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=618&amp;h=410&amp;crop=1">An infamous photo of kids</a> amassed in a border detention center circulated by House Democrats in 2018 is a glaring case in point. In fact, the photo was <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/06/02/the-lying-about-donald-trump-is-now-completely-out-of-control/">taken in 2014 during Obama’s administration</a>.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Continuing to prove that Dems are only playing politics with the border crisis, House Democrats promoted a hearing on “kids in cages” with a photo taken in 2014. 
As in, during the Obama Administration.

6. Trump called white nationalists “very fine people”
In 2017, <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/08/trump-defends-white-nationalist-protesters-some-very-fine-people-on-both-sides/537012/">The Atlantic</a> insisted that Trump supported white nationalism after the violence in Charlottesville. The piece opened with the following line:
“President Trump defended the white nationalists who protested in Charlottesville on Tuesday, saying they included ‘some very fine people,’ while expressing sympathy for their demonstration against the removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee.”
Of course, missing from The Atlantic’s piece was full context of the four-word phrase as well as <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/896420822780444672?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E896420822780444672%7Ctwgr%5E&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2Ftrump-never-called-neo-nazis-fine-people-michael-j-knowles">Trump’s tweet</a> that morning condemning hatred and violence and calling for unity:
“We ALL must be united &amp; condemn all that hate stands for. There is no place for this kind of violence in America. Lets come together as one!”
As the transcript of the exchange reveals, Trump was arguing that the demonstration involved far greater complexities than what was being reported. The rally was not inherently “white nationalist,” containing many people there to protest the removal of tributes to America’s complex history. Fringe elements on the Right were indeed present, as were violent radicals on the Left, but Trump made a point of distinguishing between those there to promote patriotist and those there to spread hatred.
Below are excerpts from the contentious August 2017 <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2017/08/15/full-text-trump-comments-white-supremacists-alt-left-transcript-241662">exchange</a> in which Trump made his “some very fine people” comment:
<blockquote>Trump:I will tell you something. I watched those very closely, much more closely than you people watched it. And you had, you had a group on one side that was bad. And you had a group on the other side that was also very violent. And nobody wants to say that, but I’ll say it right now. You had a group – you had a group on the other side that came charging in without a permit, and they were very, very violent.
Reporter: Do you think what you call the “alt-left” is the same as neo-Nazis?
Trump: Those people – all of those people, excuse me – I’ve condemned neo-Nazis. I’ve condemned many different groups, but not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me. Not all of those people were white supremacists by any stretch.
Reporter:Well, white nationalists –
Trump: Those people were also there, because they wanted to protest the taking down of a statue Robert E. Lee. So – excuse me – and you take a look at some of the groups and you see, and you’d know it if you were honest reporters, which in many cases you’re not. Many of those people were there to protest the taking down of the statue of Robert E. Lee. So this week, it’s Robert E. Lee, I noticed that Stonewall Jackson’s coming down. I wonder, is it George Washington next week? And is it Thomas Jefferson the week after. You know, you really do have to ask yourself, where does it stop? […]
Reporter: Mr. President, are you putting what you’re calling the alt-left and white supremacists on the same moral plane?
Trump: I’m not putting anybody on a moral plane. What I’m saying is this: You had a group on one side and you had a group on the other, and they came at each other with clubs — and it was vicious and it was horrible. And it was a horrible thing to watch. But there is another side. There was a group on this side. You can call them the left — you just called them the left — that came violently attacking the other group. So you can say what you want, but that’s the way it is. &#8230;
Reporter: The neo-Nazis started this. They showed up in Charlottesville to protest —
Trump: Excuse me, excuse me. They didn’t put themselves — and you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.</blockquote>
7. Trump is to blame for the looting and violence during the BLM protests 
In another case, of fantastically spurious reasoning, CNN’s David Gergen insisted that Trump’s supposedly constant “race-baiting” inspired the looting and violence during the recent BLM protests. Writing for the Washington Post, Dana Milbank offered a similar wild assessment, as reported by the <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/06/02/the-lying-about-donald-trump-is-now-completely-out-of-control/">New York Post</a>:
<blockquote>CNN political analyst David Gergen said Tuesday that Trump’s referrals to himself as ‘the president of law and order’ functioned as &#8220;race-baiting&#8221; and, in turn, &#8220;would deliberately incite violence.&#8221;…Liberal Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank wrote Monday that the riots and destruction we’re seeing &#8220;are the wages of Trump’s hate-filled incumbency.&#8221;</blockquote>
These were nothing more than caustic, inflammatory remarks devoid of any real substance or logic on the part of Gergen and Milbank. At best, the comments were built upon previous lies made against Trump. Much of the reason why Trump is painted as some race-baiting hate monger is due, in no small part, to the incessant falsehoods the media promulgates about him as the examples above demonstrate.
Trump has made his fair share of comments that deserve criticism from the media. But the reality is the establishment media has largely thrown off all pretense of objectivity in its coverage of him, and at times even knowingly promoted false narratives. And it&#8217;s not just Trump. Many mainstream outlets have allowed themselves to devolve into petty, dogmatic activism with little regard for the truth or the division and destructive consequences that result from their actions.
Given all the bogus claims and misleading reports targeting one side of the aisle, it should come as no surprise that trust in the media has eroded. A <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/1597/confidence-institutions.aspx">Gallup&#8217;s survey</a> found that by 2019, confidence in newspapers had plummeted from 51% in 1979 to just 23%, while confidence in televised news was even worse: down from 46% in 1993 to just 18% in 2019.

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany shut down two left-wing reporters during a press briefing on Wednesday after they tried to attack President Donald Trump over something he tweeted concerning Black Lives Matter earlier in the day.
&#8220;NYC is cutting Police $’s by ONE BILLION DOLLARS, and yet the @NYCMayor is going to paint a big, expensive, yellow Black Lives Matter sign on Fifth Avenue, denigrating this luxury Avenue. This will further antagonize New York’s Finest, who LOVE New York &amp; vividly remember the horrible BLM chant, &#8216;Pigs In A Blanket, Fry ‘Em Like Bacon,’” Trump tweeted. &#8220;Maybe our GREAT Police, who have been neutralized and scorned by a mayor who hates &amp; disrespects them, won’t let this symbol of hate be affixed to New York’s greatest street. Spend this money fighting crime instead!&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
&#8230;.horrible BLM chant, “Pigs In A Blanket, Fry ‘Em Like Bacon”. Maybe our GREAT Police, who have been neutralized and scorned by a mayor who hates &amp; disrespects them, won’t let this symbol of hate be affixed to New York’s greatest street. Spend this money fighting crime instead!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The first question that McEnany fielded on the topic came from ABC News&#8217; Jon Karl, who asked, &#8220;Kayleigh, why is the president calling &#8216;Black Lives Matter&#8217; a symbol of hate?&#8221;
&#8220;Well, what the president was noting is that that symbol, when you look at some of the things that have been chanted by Black Lives Matter, like &#8216;Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon,&#8217; that&#8217;s not an acceptable phrase to paint on our streets,&#8221; McEnany responded. &#8220;Look, he agrees that all black lives matter, including that of Officer David Dorn, Patrick Underwood – two officers whose lives were tragically taken amid these riots. All black lives do matter; he agrees with that sentiment. But what he doesn&#8217;t agree with is an organization that chants, &#8216;Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon&#8217; about our police officers, our valiant heroes, who are out on the street protecting us each and every day.&#8221;
&#8220;Kayleigh, Americans of all races have protested in all 50 states around that phrase, &#8216;Black Lives Matter,'&#8221; Karl continued. &#8220;And the president is here calling it a symbol of hate?&#8221;
&#8220;He is talking about the organization,&#8221; McEnany responded. &#8220;I would note to you that the Greater New York BLM president has said, &#8216;If this country doesn&#8217;t give us what we want, [that] we will burn down [the] system,’ and ‘I could be speaking literally.’ I’d call that a pretty hateful statement.&#8221;
Karl continued to interrupt McEnany on the topic as she tried to call on another reporter.

The second reporter that McEnany dealt with on the subject was PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor, who is often combative with the White House.
&#8220;The first question I have – two questions. The first is: On Monday, the president went after stripping racist names on buildings. On Tuesday, he went after a rule to combat racial segregation,&#8221; Alcindor said. &#8220;And then today, he said that, he described the words &#8216;Black Lives Matters&#8217; as a symbol of hate. Why is he digging in on race in this way?&#8221;
&#8220;So, first, I mean, if you&#8217;re saying that the fact that he does not want to rename our bases – if you&#8217;re considering that racist, then apparently 56% of America is as well, because 56% of America is against changing the name of U.S. military bases,&#8221; McEnany responded. &#8220;He believes that our young men and women who left these bases overseas – many of whom lost their lives, and the last thing they saw was being on one of these military bases – that they should not be told that the base that they trained in, the last place they saw on American soil, was a racist institution.&#8221;
Alcindor responded, &#8220;I just listed three (inaudible), including him saying that the words &#8216;Black Lives Matter&#8217; – as you noted, it has been chanted in 50 states – why is he saying that that&#8217;s a symbol of hate, on top of all the other things that he&#8217;s done just this week alone, in terms of race?&#8221;
&#8220;Well, is &#8216;Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon&#8217; racist? I mean, is that – is that hateful?&#8221; McEnany responded. &#8220;That is a hateful thing to say, I would argue. I would think the vast majority of America would agree with that, too.&#8221;
&#8220;I think the vast majority of America would think it&#8217;s hateful to say that ‘We will burn down this system, and I could be speaking literally,’&#8221; McEnany continued. &#8220;I think the vast majority of America would agree with him, yet again, that holding up a severed pig&#8217;s head is unacceptable. &#8221;
Alcindor then accused McEnany of not engaging with the question.

Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany Holds Briefing At The White House

Left-Wing Reporters Go After Trump Over ‘Black Lives Matter’ Tweet. Kayleigh McEnany Shuts Them Down.

Black Lives Matter

Major broadcast networks devoted time to covering Supreme Court decisions that aligned with liberal values while ignoring wins that favored conservatives.
A <a href="https://newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2020/06/30/scotus-study-nets-spent-25-minutes-extolling-dem-wins-zero">new study</a> from the conservative NewsBusters found that the big networks – ABC, CBS, and NBC – spent nearly 25 minutes covering Supreme Court decisions that were considered wins for liberals and absolutely no time covering the decisions that were considered wins for conservatives. In the past two weeks, the Supreme Court issued six major rulings, three of which were considered positive for conservatives and three that were considered positive for liberals.
“[A]s a Media Research Center study discovered, the broadcast evening newscasts only focused on the wins for Democrats. Those wins were on gay rights in the workplace, keeping Obama&#8217;s executive order on illegal immigrants who arrived as children, and striking down [a] Louisiana abortion law requiring hospital admissions privileges. In all, they gave the liberal wins almost 25 minutes (24:55) of airtime,” NewsBusters reported. “Contrast that with the rulings the networks completely blacked out: quick deportations for failed asylum seekers (June 25), executive branch control over the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) (June 29), and religious freedom via school choice (June 30).”
Further, the amount of airtime dedicated to each of the liberal wins “shows us who they prioritized in the left’s identity politics hierarchy,” the outlet added.
<blockquote>On gay rights, one of the points the liberal networks reveled in was conservative Justice Neil Gorsuch siding with the liberal justices, even writing the opinion. Each network gave their win a full report. ABC’s World News Tonight dedicated two minutes, one second; CBS Evening News gave it two minutes, 39 seconds; NBC Nightly News had two minutes, 12 seconds.
It was similar with DACA as Chief Justice John Roberts sided with the liberals in the majority. ABC’s report lasted three minutes, 55 seconds; CBS had two back-to-back reports that ate up six minutes, nine seconds; NBC had the least with two minutes, 18 seconds. And as <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2020/06/18/nets-boast-scotus-loss-trump-victory-dreamers">NewsBusters noted at the time</a>, the networks first celebrated the DACA decision as a “big blow” to President Trump before saying it was a win for the so-called “Dreamers.”
…
The Supreme Court striking down Louisiana’s protections for mothers and the unborn got the least amount of airtime out of their wins, but still received full reports from all three. ABC gave it one minute, 47 seconds; CBS clocked in at two minutes, six seconds; and NBC inched out ABC with one minute, 48 seconds.</blockquote>
Not only did the networks champion the liberal-leaning decisions, they made sure to note when conservative justices sided with liberal justices (while ignoring the decisions where liberal justices sided with conservative justices).
“The math was simple: three wins for liberals and three wins for conservatives. But only one batch was even noted, let alone celebrated by the broadcast networks,” NewsBusters concluded.

SCOTUS

Networks Covered Liberal SCOTUS Wins, Ignored GOP Wins

Supreme Court

An &#8220;analysis&#8221; in The Washington Post this week apparently sought to discredit a claim by President Donald Trump about violence in Democrat-controlled cities and ended up proving him correct.
The Post noted that Trump has sought to portray Democrats as soft on crime as part of his re-election strategy and pointed out the following quote from Trump on Wednesday: “You hear about certain places like Chicago and you hear about what’s going on in Detroit and other — other cities, all Democrat run. Every one of them is Democrat run. Twenty out of 20. The 20 worst, the 20 most dangerous are Democrat run.”
The Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/06/25/trump-keeps-claiming-that-most-dangerous-cities-america-are-all-run-by-democrats-they-arent/">reported</a>:
<blockquote>It’s not clear how Trump is defining “most dangerous” in this context. So let’s look at two related sets of data compiled by the FBI: most violent crime and most violent crime per capita.
The most recent data to that effect is from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report covering the first half of 2019. The cities with the most violent crimes are many of the most populous cities in the country, as you might expect. Those with the highest rates of violent crime are from a range of different states.</blockquote>
The Post then included a graphic (featured below) in their report that showed that overall 17 out of the top 20 cities with the most violent crime have Democrat mayors, while two have independent mayors, and one has a Republican mayor.
The graphic also showed that per capita, Democrats controlled 19 out of the top 20 most violent cities with independents controlling one and Republicans controlling none.

&#8220;Trump would no doubt shrug at that detail, decrying as &#8216;fake news&#8217; the revelation that his assertion was only slightly wrong,&#8221; Washington Post blogger Philip Bump wrote. &#8220;And, in fairness, it actually doesn’t matter that four of the 32 cities listed above have non-Democratic mayors — because it doesn’t really matter that the other mayors are Democrats.&#8221;
Violence has surged in major cities across the U.S. in recent weeks — including in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-shreds-chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-in-letter-over-chicago-violence-lightfoot-snaps-on-twitter">Chicago</a>, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/16/us/new-york-city-crime/index.html">New York City</a>, and <a href="https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2020/06/09/lapd-crime-homicides-up-250-percent/">Los Angeles</a> just to name a few — as far-left activists have demonized law enforcement officials and called for defunding police departments in response to the death of George Floyd.
Violent rioters have also plagued streets across the U.S. in recent days as they try to destroy statues and monuments.
The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-trump-signs-executive-order-protecting-monuments-barr-creates-task-force-to-tackle-extremists-includes-antifa">reported</a>:

Washington Post ‘Analysis’ Tries To Debunk Trump Claim On Violent Democrat Cities. It Proves Him Right.

Democrats

Violence

The New York Times is urging readers to overlook a woman’s crime because of her contribution to feminism: A manifesto that argued for the extermination of men.
Valerie Solanas shot Andy Warhol in his studio in 1968. He nearly died. Yet Solanas is now getting <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/26/obituaries/valerie-solanas-overlooked.html?smid=tw-nytbooks&amp;smtyp=cur">a positive writeup</a> in the Times’ new series called Overlooked, which is “a series of obituaries about remarkable people whose deaths, beginning in 1851, went unreported in The Times.” Solanas gets an article because of her contributions to feminism.
“She made daring arguments in ‘SCUM Manifesto,’ her case for a world without men. But her legacy as a writer and thinker was overshadowed by a violent act,” reads the sub-headline for the article.
The Times explains that Solanas’ writing “is still read in some women and gender studies courses today.” The outlet describes her as “a radical feminist (though she would say she loathed most feminists), a pioneering queer theorist and the author of ‘<a href="http://kunsthallezurich.ch/sites/default/files/scum_manifesto.pdf">SCUM Manifesto</a>,’ in which she argued for the wholesale extermination of men.” The Times also claims her manifesto “reads as satire” even though Solanas “defended it as serious.” The Times explains that she was starting a coalition called the Society for Cutting Up Men.
Solanas managed to work her way to “the fringes” of Warhol’s social circle and she tried to get him to produce her play, “Up Your Ass,” about a homeless prostitute. Warhol didn’t like the play but cast Solanas in one of his erotic films. Solanas eventually met French publisher Maurice Girodias, who wouldn’t publish her book. Solanas then convinced herself that “Warhol and Girodias were conspiring to suppress, censor or steal her voice,” the Times wrote.
Solanas was eventually diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and continued to harass Warhol and Girodias “with threatening messages,” the Times reported.
A book about Solanas included an exchange where she said she didn’t “want to kill all men” but thought “males should be neutered or castrated so they can’t mess up any more women’s lives.”
The Times includes all of these details of her life yet couches them with words like “daring” and several reminders that her work is read in women’s studies classes without a hint of disdain.
This coverage of an attempted murderer who wanted to eliminate men from society stands in contrast to the Times coverage of the current race riots, where protesters across the country are pulling down statues of anyone who ever did anything that could be deemed racist. For example, two years ago the Times published an article asking readers to vote on which statues in America should be torn down. The second option on the list was former President Ulysses S. Grant, who led the Union in victory against slavery in the Civil War. The Times, however, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/29/upshot/statues-quiz.html">described</a> Grant like this: “Led the Union Army in the Civil War. He has been <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/29/upshot/%E2%80%98http:/newyork.cbslocal.com/2017/08/22/new-york-city-statue-removal'">accused of anti-Semitism</a> over a Civil War-era order, for which he later repented, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/29/upshot/%E2%80%98http:/www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/history/2012/03/ulysses_s_grant_and_general_orders_no_11_how_the_infamous_order_changed_the_lives_of_jews_in_america_.single.html'">expelling &#8216;Jews and other unprincipled traders’</a> from parts of the South.”
When a Grant statue was toppled during the current move to eliminate statues, the Times described Grant as “the former president who led the Union army to victory and who also <a href="https://www.nps.gov/people/william-jones.htm">owned a slave</a> whom he later freed.”
The Times’ acceptance of removing statues of people who, while remembered for the good things they did in life, may have also held wrong beliefs or did bad things is contradictory for its insistence that we forget Solanas’ attempted murder of Warhol because of her contributions to feminism – which were themselves objectionable.

She Shot Andy Warhol. New York Times Books Wants To Overlook This Because Of Her ‘Contributions To The Feminist Movement.’

The following is satirical.
A new poll shows the news media dead last in public trust. According to the poll, Americans have the most trust in hospitals at 93 percent whereas only 48 percent trust Congress, 36 percent trust cable news advertisers, 23 percent trust a guy who wrote to them saying he was the son of Prince Ungoozi of the Republic of Shagmandu and he was holding a multi-million dollar inheritance for them, 17 percent trust the two spooky twins from the movie The Shining, 12 percent trust the unshaven man in a slouch hat who’s been following them around for the last three days, and finally the news media is trusted by 2 percent of people running to catch their connecting flight to Philadelphia who saw a guy talking into the camera on TV but said they weren’t really listening to what he said but he seemed nice.
There was a disparity in the poll between Republicans and Democrats with the Republican who trusted the news media being named Oscar Gunthauser, though it was difficult to make out what he was saying because he was a recent stroke victim and might just have been asking for a sip of water.
Conversely, on the Democrat side, a full 25 percent said they did trust the news media and were also considering making a donation to Joe Biden’s campaign as soon as they received their inheritance from the Republic of Shagmandu.
The company that conducted the poll has been doing follow up interviews trying to understand the results and say they feel the Republicans may be more suspicious of the news media because the news media lies all the time, whereas Democrats trust the news media more because they’re gormless idiots.
In a sampling of remarks from the interviews, a typical Democrat statement was listed as, “Gawrsh, Mickey, it sure is a beautiful day, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh,” whereas Republicans were more likely to say words to the effect of “Get off my lawn before I blow your head off.”

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany called out on Friday the media&#8217;s double standard in how it has covered left-wing protests in recent weeks versus how it has covered President Donald Trump&#8217;s upcoming rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
&#8220;One thing I would note, and I think it’s just very important especially as we go into the weekend and we begin to look at some of the news coverage out there, is that I would encourage all of you to cover the protests in the same way that you cover the rallygoers,&#8221; McEnany said. &#8220;It’s really quite something when you look at this extraordinary video by Media Research Center and Newsbusters where you have multiple hosts on MSNBC, CNN, and CBS boasting about the &#8216;massive crowd, I mean massive, tens of thousands of people, thousands and thousands, up to 200,000 people,&#8217; they exuberantly exclaim, but then they have grave concerns about the size of the Trump rallies.&#8221;
&#8220;You have MSNBC contributors saying social justice over social distancing, but when the president looks to celebrate the accomplishments for minority communities in this country, our rallies are derided as breeding grounds for coronavirus while Lawrence O’Donnell celebrates arm-in-arm protests. So, I really think that we should have internal consistency here in the way we cover large crowds,&#8221; McEnany continued. &#8220;We should be guided by science not cherry-picking science, as I see all too often on the airwaves, especially from CNN.&#8221;

TRANSCRIPT:
<blockquote>REPORTER #1: Thank you Kayleigh. Given that the campaign had attendees of the rally on Saturday sign a waiver to indemnify the campaign if they should get sick with the coronavirus, would the president consider starting or contributing to a fund for the sick or the bereaved if we see a spike in cases come out of the rally Saturday night?
WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY KAYLEIGH MCENANY: I think that’s a hypothetical and that’s a speculative question. Yes.
REPORTER #2: Thank you, Kayleigh. Looking towards the election, we know that the Biden campaign is pushing back on adding any additional debates to the schedule. How many debates would the president be willing to participate in?
MCENANY: Yeah, so the president talked about this yesterday. The president is happy to debate when given the opportunity. Right now there are three debates and he’s happy with that, but certainly if others were proposed he’d be willing to look at them and he very much looks forward to those debates. One thing I would note, and I think it’s just very important especially as we go into the weekend and we begin to look at some of the news coverage out there, is that I would encourage all of you to cover the protests in the same way that you cover the rallygoers.

Joe Rogan, host of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” said on Thursday that left-wing news media has &#8220;completely ignored&#8221; remarks by presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden allegedly showing that Biden is in &#8220;some kind of cognitive decline.&#8221;
&#8220;I’m seeing this one thing that I keep hearing over and over again from people on the Left that really disturbs me – it’s this concession that what you’re voting for is the Cabinet, you’re voting for the Supreme Court, you’re voting for someone who’s not going to reverse Roe vs. Wade,&#8221; Rogan, who made positive comments about Bernie Sanders during the primary, said. &#8220;That’s what I keep hearing from my friends on the Left. They’ve basically just made this concession in their head like, &#8216;Hey, you know, this is what I’m voting for now.&#8217; And the news media on the Left has completely ignored all of these Biden speeches that clearly show some sort of cognitive decline.&#8221;
&#8220;Like David Pakman, who I respect a lot, he was kind of arguing against it, that it didn’t show his decline,&#8221; Rogan continued. &#8220;I was trying to look at it in a way that made sense, I was trying to be rational about it. I’m like, &#8216;Okay, maybe he’s just exhausted, or maybe this, or maybe it’s pressure.'&#8221;
&#8220;Sometimes people get really tongue-tied and panic under pressure, and words come out all f**ked up. That is possible. But there’s a trend,&#8221; Rogan continued. &#8220;If you go back to when he was a younger man, that trend didn’t exist. You’re seeing a change. The idea that as you get older you become less comfortable with the media, less comfortable with speaking publicly, that doesn’t jive with me. That doesn’t make any sense.&#8221;
Scientist Bret Weinstein, who was Rogan&#8217;s guest on the show, responded, &#8220;I agree with you. I see a decline. But irrespective of what that is, Joe Biden is an influence peddler. He’s not an idea guy, right? He’s the same idea as Hillary Clinton in a different morphology. &#8230; How dare the Democratic Party do this to us again at this moment.&#8221;
&#8220;Well they did it to us before this moment happened, that’s the thing,&#8221; Rogan said. &#8220;They did it to us before COVID, they did it to us before the looting, and before the demonstrations.&#8221;

Joe Rogan: ‘News Media On The Left Has Completely Ignored’ Biden In ‘Cognitive Decline’

Joe Rogan

Oklahoma State head football coach Mike Gundy was pictured last week wearing a T-shirt with the logo of conservative news outlet One America News Network. Even though Gundy apologized, the Left is still coming after him. People are now accusing the college football coach of using racial slurs 30 years ago – in 1989.
Remember, the Left is trying to destroy him because he wore a T-shirt – a T-shirt – with the logo of a news network on it.
OAN, as the network is referred to, has pushed some controversial segments (full disclosure: I have appeared on OAN numerous times). Most recently, it claimed the 75-year-old man who was pushed to the ground by Buffalo police and hit his head was an “ANTIFA provocateur.” Buffalo police said the man was trying to stir up the crowd, but there was no evidence he was a member of the violent Antifa organization.
President Donald Trump, however, shared this baseless theory, and even though the protesters and rioters had probably never heard of OAN until that moment, decided it was public enemy number one. And thus, Gundy became public enemy number one. So Gundy <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/oklahoma-state-player-protests-mike-gundy-t-shirt-gundy-backs-down-in-apology-now-hes-being-brutally-mocked">apologized</a> in a video that looked like a hostage situation.
“I had a great meeting with our team today. Our players expressed their feelings as individuals and as team members,” Gundy said. “They helped me see through their eyes how the t-shirt effected their hearts. Once I learned how that network felt about Black Lives Matter, I was disgusted and knew it was completely unacceptable to me.”
OAN has been critical of the Black Lives Matter movement and its tactics, as have many people. But in today’s political climate, even wearing a T-shirt that doesn’t conform to the mob’s demands is enough to make somebody a pariah.
Even though Gundy apologized, the Left won’t give up. An old rival of Gundy’s – who played football at Colorado University when Gundy played at Oklahoma State – went to The Washington Post (an outlet that just got a random woman fired for an insensitive Halloween costume worn back in 2018) to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2020/06/19/oklahoma-states-mike-gundy-alleged-have-used-racial-slurs-1989-game/?utm_campaign=wp_main&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter">claim</a> that back in 1989, Gundy used the n-word toward him and other CU players. The issue was addressed in <a href="https://twitter.com/RJ_Young/status/1273394364673392640?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1273394364673392640&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fsports%2F2020%2F06%2F19%2Foklahoma-states-mike-gundy-alleged-have-used-racial-slurs-1989-game%2F">a news article</a> back in 1989 and Gundy denied using the word then.
“It’s not true,” he said. “They were doing the talking. Why would I say those things? I’ve been here four years, and half my friends [on the team] are black. It makes no sense.” Gundy at the time also pointed out that CU had off-the-field issues that had been reported in Sports Illustrated, suggesting reporters refer to the article for a character reference.
Again, that was thirty years ago. The same accusation is now being dredged up again even after Gundy apologized for wearing a T-shirt of a news network that protesters don’t like.
Once the mob surrounds someone, it’s game over.

The mainstream media has apparently learned nothing from the reckoning it faced after Justine Sacco, a random woman with barely 100 Twitter followers, was fired from her job for tweeting about AIDS and being white.
The media – and people on social media – still seem to enjoy the power trip they get from getting a random person fired. The latest example comes from The Washington Post, where two reporters wrote 3,000-plus words about a woman who was not previously a public figure who wore blackface two years ago at a Post cartoonist’s party.
The woman whose life has been upended (who will not be named by The Daily Wire) attended Post editorial cartoonist Tom Tole’s Halloween party, where political elites and others gather each year, many dressed in politically relevant costumes. For example, in 2018, the Post reported, Dana Milbank dressed as Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who had just been confirmed a couple weeks earlier. Milbank made a satirical reference to Kavanaugh by wearing a “beer-dispensing device on his head.”
As is often the case, someone thought they were making a satirical reference but instead fell flat. One woman at the party dressed as Megyn Kelly in blackface, following the then-NBC host’s statements about wearing blackface. The woman was trying to mock Kelly, but two other women at the party confronted her then and have apparently been stewing about the incident ever since. They have now been rewarded by being featured in the Post’s article about the incident from two years, which has been dredged up in the wake of race riots across the country. One of the two women first emailed Toles – whom she had never met – telling him how offended she was that a guest at his party dressed that way.
“In 2018, I attended a Halloween party at your home,” the woman wrote. “I understand that you are not responsible for the behavior of your guests, but at the party, a woman was in Blackface. She harassed me and my friend — the only two women of color — and it was clear she made her ‘costume’ with racist intent.”
The woman then asked for Toles’ help in identifying the woman and emailed the Post to get them to cover the incident – which it obviously obliged.
The other offended woman said she didn’t want an apology (read: she wanted to destroy the woman who wore the costume), and she wanted Toles to atone for the incident.
The costumed woman was apparently run out of the party in tears, so it’s not like she wasn’t made aware of her mistake. She had already been punished and was embarrassed and regretful of her costume choice. But that wasn’t enough for the two women who convinced the Post to punish this woman further – two years after the fact.
The woman has now been fired from her job. One partygoer told the Post that reopening the incident would “be too much of a punishment.” The Post did it anyway.
People on Twitter shot back at the Post. Reason reporter Elizabeth Nolan Brown tweeted: “If you’re an adult who is ‘physically &amp; emotionally’ threatened by an offensive Halloween constume [sic] and still scarred by it 2 years later— get help y’all. That’s not on anyone but you.”
Katie Herzog tweeted in jest: “BREAKING: Woman No One Has Ever Heard of Commits Microagression Two Years Ago.”
Others pointed out that the woman being ostracized is a liberal who vehemently opposes President Donald Trump, but that isn’t enough to save her in today’s current climate, where being offended gets people media attention.

Microaggressions

CNN law enforcement analyst Charles Ramsey blamed the media on Wednesday when asked about why large numbers of police officers are resigning across the country in recent weeks after the death of George Floyd.
&#8220;Chief Ramsey, you have a phenomenon now in a number of police departments, in a number of communities, where you have police officers who were resigning in numbers in the midst of this,&#8221; CNN host Jim Sciutto said. &#8220;And I wonder, if you were still commanding the police departments in Philadelphia or New York, how would you explain to your officers that this is not targeting police officers in general. It is targeting certain bad behaviors that lead to bad and sometimes deadly outcomes. How would you get that message across?&#8221;
&#8220;Well, I mean, listen, obviously you&#8217;d be, you know, visiting roll calls and so forth, but that&#8217;s a hard sell because, unfortunately, there&#8217;s really not a whole lot of balances taking place in terms of the reporting, in terms of the demonstrators,&#8221; Ramsey responded. &#8220;And don&#8217;t get me wrong, we need demonstrations. I mean there needs to be police reform. But in the &#8212; I think one of the consequences of what&#8217;s going on right now, police are being demonized to a large extent.&#8221;
&#8220;That&#8217;s the good cops that really are looking at this saying, you know, why am I bothering?&#8221; Ramsey continued. &#8220;Why am I doing this? So I think we need to find that balance and encourage the good police officers to continue doing what they do, but also help work to &#8212; to get rid of those officers that should not be police officers. So we need to find a little better balance because right now morale is really, you know, weighed down, and understandably so.&#8221;
When pressed by host Alisyn Camerota on the issue, Ramsey said, &#8220;Well, I mean, just &#8212; wherever you can find balance, find a balance. St. Cloud, Minnesota, the other day, a police officer was shot by an 18-year-old black youth.&#8221;
&#8220;The kid was not injured. In Philadelphia, last August, five police officers shot by an individual who was taken into custody without injury. I mean there&#8217;s been a lot of examples out there where police have used a tremendous amount of restraint. And all I&#8217;m saying is, if there&#8217;s balance there, then maybe we can start to get that message across to the men and women because right now, every time you turn on the television, all you&#8217;re seeing are the bad shootings, the use of force, and so forth,&#8221; Ramsey continued. &#8220;But, without balance, it does affect moral and you&#8217;re going to get some of these young cops that will say, listen, I can find some other line of work. I don&#8217;t need this. And that&#8217;s unfortunate.&#8221;

TRANSCRIPT:
<blockquote>CNN HOST JIM SCIUTTO: Chief Ramsey, you have a phenomenon now in a number of police departments, in a number of communities, where you have police officers who were resigning in numbers in the midst of this.
CHARLES RAMSEY, CNN LAW ENFORCEMENT ANALYST: Right.
SCIUTTO: And I wonder, if you were still commanding the police departments in Philadelphia or New York, how would you explain to your officers that this is not targeting police officers in general. It is targeting certain bad behaviors that lead to bad and sometimes deadly outcomes. How would you get that message across?
RAMSEY: Well, I mean, listen, obviously you&#8217;d be, you know, visiting roll calls and so forth, but that&#8217;s a hard sell because, unfortunately, there&#8217;s really not a whole lot of balances taking place in terms of the reporting, in terms of the demonstrators. And don&#8217;t get me wrong, we need demonstrations. I mean there needs to be police reform. But in the &#8212; I think one of the consequences of what&#8217;s going on right now, police are being demonized to a large extent. That&#8217;s the good cops that really are looking at this saying, you know, why am I bothering? Why am I doing this? So I think we need to find that balance and encourage the good police officers to continue doing what they do, but also help work to &#8212; to get rid of those officers that should not be police officers. So we need to find a little better balance because right now morale is really, you know, weighed down, and understandably so.
CAMEROTA: Chief, we hear you. I mean, and that&#8217;s a really unfortunate by-product of all of this. Obviously, I mean I know that you&#8217;re saying that you blame the reporting in part, and I hear you. I mean, you know, we report on the extremes. We report on the things that are outside the norm. We report on the deadly encounters. Not all of &#8212; I mean on NEW DAY we also report on, you know, at the end of our show, &#8220;The Good Stuff&#8221; and good things that police do all the time. But I understand why that&#8217;s being eclipsed right now by these deadly encounters.
RAMSEY: Yes.
ALISYN CAMEROTA: And so what&#8217;s the answer?
RAMSEY: Well, I mean, just &#8212; wherever you can find balance, find a balance. St. Cloud, Minnesota, the other day, a police officer was shot by an 18-year-old black youth.
The kid was not injured. In Philadelphia, last August, five police officers shot by an individual who was taken into custody without injury. I mean there&#8217;s been a lot of examples out there where police have used a tremendous amount of restraint. And all I&#8217;m saying is, if there&#8217;s balance there, then maybe we can start to get that message across to the men and women because right now, every time you turn on the television, all you&#8217;re seeing are the bad shootings, the use of force, and so forth. Not that that&#8217;s not important. It is important and it&#8217;s flat-out wrong.
SCIUTTO: Yes.
RAMSEY: But, without balance, it does affect moral and you&#8217;re going to get some of these young cops that will say, listen, I can find some other line of work. I don&#8217;t need this. And that&#8217;s unfortunate.
CAMEROTA: Yes.
SCIUTTO: Yes. And we don&#8217;t want that.
CAMEROTA: Chief Ramsey, Toluse, thank you very much.
RAMSEY: Thank you.
SCIUTTO: Thanks to both of you.</blockquote>

On Sunday, Fox News’ Howard Kurtz and Chris Wallace engaged in a discussion about journalistic integrity.
“Is journalism becoming more intolerant?” Kurtz asked. “I mean, ten or twenty years ago, would we have seen the publisher of The New York Times completely flipping and criticizing a conservative op-ed that he had defended because a bunch of newsroom staffers didn&#8217;t like it?”
Wallace replied:
<blockquote>It feels like the inmates are running the asylum. You know, I&#8217;ve been critical sometimes of the Times, and I think that their liberal tendency tends to bleed out onto their news coverage – some people have accused Fox of the same thing in terms of our tendencies – but I thought that what happened in the last week at the Times was just extraordinary.</blockquote>
Wallace then explained that Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) had written an op-ed in which he advocated using the military to end the riots that erupted following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
After the op-ed was published in The New York Times, the paper received major backlash from their own staffers, and publisher A.G. Sulzberger defended it before backing down. The editor for the NYT editorial page, James Bennet, later reportedly apologized and resigned.
“It was a profile in a lack of courage,” Wallace stated.
Kurtz continued, asking Wallace: “Given the long history of racism and police brutality in this country, crystallized by the killing of George Floyd, does it now seem to you that there are many people in newsrooms – this goes far beyond The New York Times – who just don&#8217;t believe that dissenting views, let&#8217;s say sending in the military to control riots, should be aired at all, that it&#8217;s just too offensive to them?”
Wallace replied in the affirmative, noting that while there aren’t “two sides to every issue,” it isn’t “over the line to even discuss the issue of how you put down violent protests,” which is what Cotton advocated in his op-ed.
“I&#8217;m not sure I agree with him about it, and it certainly would have been an extraordinary step, but it doesn&#8217;t seem to me that it&#8217;s so far over the line that there aren&#8217;t two sides to that argument,” Wallace said, later adding, “but to suggest that it was improper for that – and this is a U.S. Senator – to suggest it was improper for him to even express that opinion, boy, that&#8217;s not good.”
“It’s called debate; it&#8217;s called free expression,” Kurtz stated.
The host went on to explain that he believes the “new woke standard” began “in part” when President Trump was a candidate, and that there were journalists that discarded the rules of journalism because they “deemed Donald Trump to be such a threat to the country.”
Kurtz noted that he believes this is still going on.
“Now they want to see him defeated in November,” the host said. “Do you agree with me, and do you think that&#8217;s a slippery slope?”
Wallace agreed, but he added that this standard appears to have begun before Trump. The Fox News anchor claimed that people will compliment him on his “fairness,” which he said he finds “fairly depressing” as fairness is the most basic standard of journalism.
“Today, I think that it&#8217;s gotten so polarized, whether it&#8217;s on cable news, whether it&#8217;s in newspapers, that fairness is kind of unusual, and that is a terribly sad reflection on our business,” Wallace suggested.
Kurtz pivoted, asking Wallace about his criticisms of Trump referring to the press as “the enemy of the people,” but also the Fox News anchor’s indictments of the media.
Wallace replied in part:
<blockquote>You see some reporters now who have become advocates. I see it in the press briefings now. You know, I was pretty tough in the press briefings with Ronald Reagan and his press secretaries in the 80s, but we were basically trying to get information. Some of the press briefings now &#8230; it&#8217;s more playing gotcha or more just trying to get in arguments and advance their point of view. That’s not what we&#8217;re supposed to be doing, and that&#8217;s what I see too often among my colleagues in the media&#8230;</blockquote>
Kurtz then brought up the idea that younger journalists might see objectivity as an outmoded method of reporting, and Wallace rebutted that by saying that the “truth” is what matters. He cited the coverage of the civil rights movement and the “the brutality of southern sheriffs” as evidence of the importance of journalists simply “shining a light on reality.”
“When reporters start taking sides, I think that&#8217;s very dangerous,” Wallace concluded.

Wallace BLASTS New York Times Over Cotton Op-Ed Scuffle: ‘A Profile In A Lack Of Courage’

Tom Cotton

Liberals are beginning to swagger around as if the 2020 election is already over. Eugene Robinson at The Washington Post exclaimed that President Donald Trump&#8217;s reelection campaign is &#8220;beginning to look like the Titanic.&#8221; Joe Biden should be preparing his inauguration remarks.
One reason for this arrogance is the absolutely punishing media coverage of Trump. The coronavirus pandemic did what some might have thought was impossible: made Trump coverage even more negative. Rich Noyes of the Media Research Center found that from March 4 (when Joe Biden had basically wrapped up the Democratic nomination) through May 31, Trump coverage on the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts was 94% negative. In May, it was 99.5% negative, an all-time low.
There were 474 evaluative comments about President Trump during this period, and 445 were negative. By contrast, there were only 85 evaluations of Biden, and 51 were negative (61%). They were nine times more negative about Trump.
This sounds a lot like the warp and woof of the 2016 campaign coverage, during which Trump drew the lion&#8217;s share of media attention and it was overwhelmingly negative, while Hillary Clinton seemed like an afterthought. Even in the last three months of the campaign, Trump was evaluated four times as much as Clinton.
The Democrats thought that made her a shoo-in. It didn&#8217;t turn out that way.
Here&#8217;s the problem for them. Anyone who has spent time with these networks knows they have a throbbing, swelling urge to destroy Trump politically. They can&#8217;t possibly be considered &#8220;referees&#8221; of presidential campaigns. One reason they&#8217;ve been so angry about the fate of &#8220;democracy&#8221; is they can&#8217;t stand it when voters ignore their incessant advice.
Jonah Goldberg recently wrote a column in which he argued Trump must think his voters are idiots since he proclaims he is running against the media instead of Biden. Obviously, the media aren&#8217;t on the ballot. But Biden&#8217;s attacks on the president cannot possibly match the media&#8217;s 24/7 aggression and firepower. They are not some irrelevant bystanders, especially now that Biden is campaigning from a cold computer screen.
Their protective coverage of Lovable Grandpa Joe is just as transparent. Noyes reported that ABC, CBS and NBC could barely muster three minutes of airtime on how Biden told black voters, &#8220;If you have a problem figuring out whether you&#8217;re for me or Trump, then you ain&#8217;t black.&#8221; NBC gave it a few seconds. ABC and CBS both rushed to &#8220;balance&#8221; the story with negative Trump news. CBS showed Biden was leading among black voters, 90% to 3%.
When it broke that Biden, in his last days as vice president, joined a list of other Obama officials requesting the &#8220;unmasking&#8221; of an American who turned out to be incoming Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn — which led to a smear about the former Army major general being a Russian pawn — the story drew merely 62 seconds of coverage: 55 seconds on ABC, 7 seconds on CBS and none on NBC. Voters who rely on these cynics for &#8220;news&#8221; wouldn&#8217;t even understand the Big Picture: that Team Obama improperly spied on the Trump campaign and was still trying to ruin Trump&#8217;s presidency during the transition.
Biden&#8217;s TV interviews are littered with please-trash-Trump questions, such as this beaut from MSNBC&#8217;s Brian Williams: &#8220;What is President Trump&#8217;s level of culpability — what&#8217;s his level of responsibility, say, toward the illness and fatalities we&#8217;re witnessing every few minutes these days?&#8221;
This sums up the tone of the latest evening news: How many Americans has Trump killed? They hope their nightly onslaughts demoralize Trump voters and energize Biden backers. But to many Americans, this is not journalism. It&#8217;s badly disguised campaign advertising.
