Sheryl Attkisson-Slanted Journalism and the 2020 Election

Hillsdale College lecture
Among other things she points out how the media included Obama's trips to South Korea when counting presidential trips visiting combat zones but didn't include Trump's visits to South Korea. Also tells how NBC claimed Trump was the first president since 2002 not to visit the troops during "Christmas time" even though he visited troops in Iraq on Dec. 26. They claimed the day after Christmas was not Christmas time. She points out that Trump made four visits to troops in active combat zones while he was president. Before Trump U.S. Presidents had made a total of 27 visits to troops in active combat zones in American history. Shows an article written by a journalism professor at New York University claiming that journalism was no longer non-partisan and everyone should be happy that it isn't. Nothing that is going to surprise anyone here but still stuff that will make you shoot napalm out of your eyes.

She is a damned fine person and I just don't know why more like her don't go into "journalism".
Well, I know, it is because they are blocked and run off but fine people don't even seem to want to start any more.

Al Jazeera would be proud for the state of journalism in America.

Sheryl Attkisson is a real fact based investigative reporter. That's why they ran her off at CBS. They didn't like her taking the BS out of CBS.

Her lawsuit of when our govt spied on her, gas lit her names Rod Rosenstein.
The swamp will win every time because they are every where in govt.

I bet they left out the fact he went to North Korea as well.

Because they would be stopped from writing truth just like she was. I highly recommend her book. She was the first person to identify this use of language by journalists:
We were told that to counter right wing arguments use:
a. debunked
b. conspiracy theory
c. disinformation
