Media Bias

Democrat-controlled media was sweating after one poll

Published

Democrats and their media allies depend on favorable press coverage.

That became painfully obvious to all during the Donald Trump years.

And the Democrat-controlled media was sweating after one poll.

Donald Trump constantly slammed the biased press as “fake news” and “the enemy of the American people.”

And a new poll suggests that Americans feel similarly.

New media site The Messenger, which purports to be balanced and objected, published a poll conducted by HarrisX.

The poll did not speak well of the corporate press.

According to the Messenger/Harris poll, two-thirds of Americans believe that journalists mainly practice advocacy instead of real, unbiased journalism.

Among Republicans, the number was 77%, and 61% for Democrats.

The Messenger added that “[t]hree in four voters agreed that the media ‘gives a biased picture of political events,’ including 68 percent of Democrats, 80 percent of Republicans, and 76 percent of Independents. More than 80 percent of voters agreed that ‘we need a new news medium dedicated to even-handed treatment of issues without political bias.’”

Journalists have destroyed their credibility by being clearly in the tank for Democrats.

That point was driven home when Trump became President.

Harris Poll chairman Mark Penn said, “Americans see many media sources today as advocates for political views and see great danger in first amendment freedoms…They are hungry for new sources of information.”

The poll also showed that people preferred local news over political news.

Respondents were most interested in local news (40%), followed by political news (31%), then entertainment news (10%).

The Messenger added that “the respondents who believed the coverage was biased were more likely to say it favored Democrats than favored Republicans. A full half of respondents said that media coverage of Democrats was biased in their favor, whereas only 27 percent said the same of Republicans.”

Adding to that, over half of Democrats (55%) said that news coverage of their party was fair, but only 19% of Republicans felt that coverage of the GOP was fair.

Many have written about this stark media bias for years.

Lifelong liberal journalist Bernard Goldberg wrote about it in the 2001 book “Bias,” which got him pinned with the conservative label.

Goldberg has been tossed in the right-wing camp because the Left have gone insane.

He was essentially forced off the HBO show Real Sports because he wanted to run stories that left-wing producers wouldn’t touch, e.g. transgender athletes competing in women’s sports.

Needless to say, the Democrat-controlled media does not like being called out for its obvious bias.

BBC just exposed Fox Corp.’s spine-chilling potential replacement for axed investigative unit

Published

Establishment globalists are circling the wagons.

Dissenting voices are being sidelined.

And the BBC just exposed Fox’s spine-tingling potential replacement for its axed investigative unit.

In light of Fox’s record-high $787 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, the network is cutting costs.

Fox’s investigative journalist unit was reportedly completely disbanded, with three people being let go and the other reassigned within the company.

With investigative journalism slowly dying out, it is being replaced with so-called disinformation and misinformation experts.

And the BBC just announced its new “disinformation” system called BBC Verify.

British presenter Marianna Spring explained the new initiative, writing, “Welcome to BBC Verify! … Everything from interrogating social media feeds using undercover accounts and investigating real-world impact of mistruths, hate and conspiracy movements to piecing together what’s happening with satellite imagery.”

In reality, BBC Verify is legacy media’s attempt to characterize alternative media as “fringe” and “far-right” and prone to “conspiracism.”

Meanwhile, outlets like the BBC are some of the biggest purveyors of disinformation and conspiracy theories.

Predictably, Spring caricatured criticism of the program by writing, “The trolling in response to this – including misogynistic slurs, threatening and hateful messages – are just more proof of why investigating this is so important. Welcome trolls and stay tuned for my latest Radio 4 podcast, more upcoming investigations – and Undercover Voters.”

Max Blumenthal, left-wing journalist and editor of the antiwar site The Grayzone, called out Spring for potentially being a minion of the NATO-aligned foreign policy establishment.

Blumenthal responded to Spring, “Hey Marianna, did you ever attend this meeting proposed by a UK intelligence contractor that was aimed at cooking up smears of The Grayzone? Why did a spook propose you as a specialist in taking down an indy outlet like ours? And what exactly is your relationship w/ UK intel?”

The international Left have gone all in on combating disinformation and misinformation in the name of saving democracy.

As Spring pointed out in the BBC Verify video, she pondered if a “January 6th” incident could happen in the UK.

She also mentioned “far-right” elements without any mention of “far-left” movements.

The Left are very panicked about the rise of right-wing populists movements that reject excessive wokeness, unfettered immigration, and endless wars around the globe.

BBC Verify is a UK response to the failed Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) that crashed and burned in the United States.

But the Left will certainly attempt to bring it back.

This New York Times columnist just used two words to describe the Target Boycott that will leave you slack-jawed

Average Americans are starting to show they’re willing to do what it takes to reign in woke nonsense. 

That is sparking all kinds of panic on the Left. 

And now one New York Times columnist just used two words to describe the Target Boycott that will leave you slack-jawed.

Even after consumers schooled Bud Light over its foray into woke politics, retailer Target decided to push its luck with all kinds of outrageous products, offered prominently for “Pride Month.”

The company’s offerings included a product line designed by a noted Satanist. 

In the past month, Target’s stock has plummeted by about 13.4% as of Tuesday. 

Now a darling of the Left’s corporate-controlled media is accusing Target of caving into “economic terrorism.”

The company has tried to stem the bleeding by citing the danger to their employees as their reason for shifting some LGBTQ displays further back in the stores and cutting out some merchandise. 

The fact that customers have been successful in expressing their dissatisfaction with the retailer has the Left all kinds of frustrated—and nobody more than the talking heads over at MSNBC. 

New York Times columnist and economics professor Justin Wolfers recently made an appearance on MSNBC claiming that—horror of horrors—if Target gives into the boycott, it will send a message to Americans that they can affect company policy. 

“When Target caves into this, then it says that the moment you threaten the employees of even a very large corporation you get to control its policies. This is economic terrorism. Literally terrorism,” Wolfers claimed. 

“Creating fear among the workers and forcing the corporations to sell the things you want, not sell the things you don’t. So I think it’s very worrying,” he added.

In reality, both the Bud Light and Target boycotts have come to represent something much bigger than either brand and their ridiculous woke shenanigans. 

It has quickly morphed into an all-out power struggle between the Wall Street elites using their access to the country’s wealth—much of it in retirement funds—to force a cultural transformation in line with their woke ideology and the ordinary Americans trying to stop them.  

The official word on Wall Street is that Target’s stock is now wildly undervalued after losing more than $9 billion in value. 

What happens to the companies which have doubled down on woke policies in reality over the next year will paint a much clearer picture of who is really running America.

Vanity Fair dropped jaws with a breathtakingly nasty jab at Elon Musk and Ron DeSantis

Published

The corporate-controlled media’s open hostility is transferring quickly from Donald Trump to Ron DeSantis. 

And Vanity Fair just showed they’re among the egregious.

Because the magazine just took a breathtaking jab at Elon Musk and Ron DeSantis that will leave you stunned.

When Donald Trump shocked the Left by beating Hillary Clinton back in 2016, the corporate-controlled media transformed overnight. 

Their claws came out, and the news was rapidly filled with headlines that proved any pretense of journalistic neutrality was a thing of the past. 

Now seven years later, that full-blown hostility is being directed toward Republicans in general—and any candidate they’re known to support. 

After years of increasingly intense bashing, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has now earned the full fury of the leftist press—and where Vanity Fair was willing to go with it was truly stunning. 

Shortly before Ron DeSantis’ recent announcement that he is running for president in 2024, the magazine ran with this snarky headline: “Report: Ron DeSantis will formally announce his 2024 bid with Elon Musk, because apparently David Duke wasn’t available.”

“Launching with the Twitter owner is certainly a choice,” writer Bess Levin added in a snide subheading. 

Levin wasn’t satisfied with merely suggesting that DeSantis and Twitter’s billionaire Elon Musk are white supremacists—inside the first paragraph she went as far as actually accusing Musk—who was Democrat up until last year—of being a neo-Nazi sympathizer. 

“After many months of refusing to confirm what so many people already suspected, Ron DeSantis will reportedly announce on Wednesday that he is running for president,” Levin penned. “And that’s not all: He is said to be planning to formally jump into the 2024 race during a conversation on Twitter with Elon Musk, because apparently other neo-Nazi sympathizers weren’t available.”

Levin’s outrageous defamatory comments against both DeSantis and Musk certainly got a reaction. 

“It’s just so patently wrong, it’s false, it’s disgusing,” Fox News’ Jason Chaffetz said during an episode of The Faulkner Focus. “It’s why people hate politics.”

“If someone really sees David Duke and Elon Musk as comparable in some way, they’re either crazy or incredibly ignorant,” author John Hawkins noted. “Either way, they certainly don’t deserve to be writing for any sort of credible publication……or even somewhere like Vanity Fair.” 

Meanwhile, Elon Musk quickly brushed off the scathing accusations pointing out that the article was nothing more than satire. 

“Looks like Babylon Bee has some competition for satire,” Musk tweeted. 

With nearly 18 months left to go until the 2024 Presidential Election, it looks like the corporate-controlled media is just getting warmed up when it comes to making complete fools out of themselves as they attempt to paint every conservative Republican in the country as a complete nutcase.
