More “news” from MSM

Yet another example of the death of journalism and the transition to pure editorial content. From ABC:
quote:LINK
On conservative news channels, President Joe Biden’s pandemic adviser has been baselessly pilloried as a liar who misled the American people about the origins of COVID-19 to protect the Chinese government. There's no evidence of wrongdoing, but Republican calls for his resignation have grown louder, as have demands for new investigations into the origins of the virus.

This is a common tactic used by the media to dispute stories that go against the narrative. They added one extra detail that goes beyond what is being claimed and thus makes the entire claim baseless. In this story, they say that Fauci lied to protect the Chinese government. That singular claim about the motive for lying is baseless, as far as I know, and is just speculation. But if you package that with the entire claim, it makes the whole thing “baseless.”
We know for a fact that Fauci lied. We know for a fact that Fauci misled the American public. But the motive is not known as a fact at this point. Now, other media outlets will refer to ABC as a news source that determined the entire Fauci story is baseless.

I believe we do.
It was CYA for him and the NIH and the Obama decision to rev up the program 7 days before leaving office.

I think China and Fauci have mutually assured destruction scenario. And by extension the Biden administration due to how they've held Fauci out.

It’s the “Republicans pounce” strategy. Rather than discuss the charges, they talk about the Republicans’ response to the charges as a means of steering the narrative.

Right turning the story around so that the narrative is baseless attacks on Fauci. That’s the story. It’s a formula they have successfully used many times.

They learned that from the crazy cat lady at Snopes.

We need to look at this as a gift... because we now understand which “journalists” are on the Chinese payroll.
This piece of shite should have a black bag thrown over his head in the middle of night and shipped to China to live out the remainder of his days.

The MSM business model is to manipulate the public to fit an agenda.
They have zero credibility.

Only works on their idiot followers.

And it isn't a right wing claim. Fauci admitted he lied. Jimmy Dore - nobody's idea of a right winger - played the tape.

This is 100% correct. Fauci himself is using this tactic right now when being asked about his emails. He immediately and without provocation goes into the bio weapon angle. So MSM asks about his emails and he responds with “of course China wouldn’t release a bio weapon to kill themselves and others. Haha that’s so dumb Ms. She/Her/Them reporter thing.”

Pure projection on their part. Attacking a certain someone baselessly and saying he lied has been their go to move the past five years.
