This 'liberation' will NOT be reported

If the 2024 presidential contest proved anything, it's that the mass media no longer drive the national conversation. They can no longer stoke fear and outrage in average voters. They can no longer prop up terrible candidates. And, like him or not, President-elect Donald Trump's success with black, Hispanic and Jewish voters, if exit polls are even close to correct, proves that the entire "fascist" scare was a flop...

It's also a tragedy for a free nation that we have a barely functioning press. Reporters probably tell themselves they're disliked because they're fearless truth-tellers. But, far more likely, it's a referendum on their deceit...

There was never a reckoning for the Russia collusion hysteria that enveloped the nation or the concerted effort to censor and gaslight us on the Hunter Biden laptop story. There will be no reckoning for spending years fearmongering about the coming Nazism, either.

Recall, as well, how we got here. Most of the media had spent four years covering up... Joe Biden's mental and physical decay by the time the first presidential debate rolled around. It was perhaps the most stage-managed presidency in history, and not one reporter with access to the White House, outside of Fox News, thought it important enough to let us know that the commander in chief could barely function...

Then came "Kamalot," the shameless, sycophantic, contrived campaign to persuade voters that a woefully inadequate candidate, one who had never won a primary contest, was actually a generational political talent...

... there isn't a single person on MSNBC or NBC News or ABC News or CBS News or on any of the editorial pages of most of the biggest newspapers in the country who can articulate positions held by half the country, much less agree with any of them...

With every debacle, the institution gets worse... On the bright side, though, most people have stopped listening.
