Liberal editors like @ClaraJeffery spent the day re-tweeting supporting for the NPR story even after Sotomayor and Gorsuch jointly debunked it.

Then, when Roberts denied it, she and they ignored that, just moved to other things.

However much you hate the media, it's not enough.

I worked within this media sector for more than a decade and have friends at every outlet. I'm not saying this for effect or exaggeration:

Most of them don't care if they publish lies and false stories as long as it's targeting political enemies. They see that as their function.

They dont care if they publish lies because they aren't in the news business anymore.

In other words, propaganda.

We need more Nick Sandmanns. The media won't stop lying until they have to start writing a check to pay for every lie.

Well, they are so that makes sense.

The problem is that too many viewers DON'T see them as that.

And, I mean, after Trump was elected, they pretty much ANNOUNCED it was their function.

So, it's not like he's going out on a limb. They're admitted liars.

Can I just point out that this is why, whatever else you think about Jan 6th, it was misdirected.

The mob needs to show up at CNN HQ, MSNBC, Facebook, Twitter etc etc.

The mob needs to make working at these places terrifying.

Because they don't see themselves as journalists seeking the truth.

They are activists.

Well to be honest, most of the people on the Hill in DC are just as bad. They should be terrified of the people just as much because they are supposed to be WORKING for us.
