American Journalists MIA on Global Warming
Where are the American journalists who should be covering the collapse of the man-made warming scare — the biggest hoax in human history? The public, shoveling snow amid blizzard winds, wants to know. The stock market, laboring under the threat of trillion-dollar energy taxes, urgently needs to know. Even the Columbia Journalism Review, complicit in fostering the global warming scare for 20 years, is prodding America’s mainstream media to finally do their duty.
The press in England, Australia, and even India is already breaking the story:
– “The Professor’s Amazing Climate Change Retreat,” London Daily Mail, Feb. 13. “Professor Phil Jones of East Anglia University confesses on the BBC that the world hasn’t warmed since 1995, and the Medieval Warming was perhaps warmer than today.”
– “World May Not Be Warming, Say Scientists,” Sunday Times of London, Feb. 14.
– “The Hottest Hoax in the World,” Ninad Sheth, India’s Open Magazine, Jan. 30.
– “The Great Global Warming Collapse,” Margaret Wente, Canada’s Global & Mail, Feb. 20.
Also eagerly awaiting the media confessions is that little band of hardy souls who have been telling us for years inconvenient truths about gaps in the greenhouse theory while insisting that “the science isn’t settled” by a long shot. They’ve been accused of treason, likened to Holocaust deniers, and threatened with jail and with death for telling us that the evidence didn’t stack up. They could get no hearing — not on university campuses, not in the press, not even in their own communities. While falsely accused of “shilling for corporations,” they lost jobs, tenure, and reputations.
Its hard to imagine a better option for our Old Marxist Media than just pretending it didn’t happen. The sheeple don’t trust conservative news outlets, and aren’t aware of stories that are not from liberal outlets.
I don’t think there is anything the media put more effort into in the last decade than warmism, and at this point, there is really nothing they can do but watch their credibility evaporate.
Avery has been right, right from the start of the squabble: It’s virtually all natural, see? A recent comment from across the pond summed it all up (in response to a blog posting):
“The world is about 4.5 billion years old. Judging by such things as the Medieval Warming Period and the Little Ice Age together with previous events, it seems that there is significant ‘Climate Change’ two or three times every thousand years. This means there would have been about 10/15 million such warming or cooling events in Earth history.
There are two schools of thought…
1. The sceptic camp say that all of these 10/15 million climate change events are natural.
2. The AGW camp say that all but one of these 10/15 million climate change events are natural. What they don’t explain is why natural climate change has taken a holiday just this once.”
“Where are the American journalists who should be covering the collapse of the man-made warming scare — the biggest hoax in human history?”
They are worried about their economic future. Will these journalists still be employed in the industry a year from now? How would like to be someone who may have spent the last twenty years specializing in environmental journalism? The public now realizes that you were unwittingly played for a fool. What happens now in an age of massive cutbacks in the MSM? It’s awfully hard to start over.
By all appearances, The Left Wing Media is still drunk on power. They were able to manifest that power through 4 years of non-stop attacks on Bush and the Republicans – most of which went unanswered and ultimately gave us the economy-destroying, deficit exploding Democrat Congressional majority. Again they manifested that power in 2007-08, destroying Hillary and padding BHO’s popularity by some 15%, without which his lack of experience would have continued unabated.
With successes like that, and the fact that they were never really held accountable in any substantive way for their failure to report on the John Edwards scandal, there’s really no motivation for them to report on this issue; especially since – like socialized medicine – it’s a linchpin in the leftist, totalitarian agenda most of them cheerfully support.
You have to wonder what else the MSM has buried over the years. Thank god for the internets.
The MSM people have too big of an emotional investment in this issue to back track. They have used it to ridicule, demean, smear, and laugh at the thinking population by calling us “deniers”, “troglodytes”, “anti-science”, etc.
Really, AGW has been preposterous from day one: Humans create less than 1/10 of 1 percent of total greenhouse gases–how can a small change in that amount effect the earth? HOW?
It was absurd as the ODC(ozone depleting chemical) scare. Remember that? Or the acid rain scare. Or the ALAR scare. Or the heterosexual AIDS scare. And don’t forget the king: the DDT scare that resulted in the deaths of millions of Africans from malaria.
ALL of the above were pushed by the MSM–they are a disgrace.
the established media serves the left. the left is in no mood to be further humiliated right now. even thought they richly deserve it.
My view is that the captive US media was given a lot of stock in Gore’s company to scream about global warming. They don’t, now, want to do/say anything to disturb that fantasy until they are able to sell their stock and carbon credits.
Back on the day that the release of the CRU emails was made public, I sent my own emails to ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and NBC warning them that the longer they ignored the exposure of the Global Warming Hoax as the HOAX it is, the worse it would be for them. They still haven’t heeded my warning.
I can’t hear or read the term American “Journalists” without the quotation marks around journalist part. They have become lazy, incurious, spokesmen for the left. Maybe they recognize a kinship with the lazy, incurious “scientists” who were “researching” the climate.
Just as it was hard for Herr Goebbels to admit the mendacity in his Nazi propaganda, the drive-by progressive statist media have the same problem admitting their lies and deceit. Besides, they know better than the unwashed peasants what is good for “them”.
Not only have the MSM invested millions of words, most out right lies, but they have allowed Obama to talk recently about AGW as if nothing new had come up. And don’t forget the idiots in Hollywood who have parlayed this hoax into big business. Remember the goreacal and his Oscar for the biggest work of fiction in years, “An inconvenient lie”.
We are dealing with forces that have successfully induced a mutation in ALL the cultural institutions of our society: the nihilists- subversives have transformed our schools and our universities, and have directed, commanded, led the “cultural” debate for decades: the silly story of the “global warming” scam is just NOTHING for them when compared to the colossal work of indoctrination and brainwashing that they have carried on.
The leftists are very confident that this small storm will pass and that they will keep teaching their lessons of nihilism, class warfare and marxism.
Our fight for the truth is OK, but what we need is a true cultural revolution, to roll back the subversion and take back our culture.
Oh irony! Al Gore’s greatest invention, the internet, has become the mechanism that facilitated his undoing.
Tom Wolfe always described the American press “the Victorian Gent.” Wolfe used to say that the purpose of the American media was not so much to cover the news as to give it “the correct tone” so that the rest of us would not get the wrong ideas about things. Like the Victorian gentleman the press believes that there are certain things that you can and cannot say in public. The Gent has very refined sensibilities based on class and sophistication. It holds itself above the hurly-burly of the crowd and looks with distain at what it believes is distasteful, vulgar or “ungenteel.” Global warming is a perfect example of this. In the mind of the press all of the “best” people have embraced the concept and to question it is “vulgar.” To question AGW means giving in to those who don’t know their place and have forgotten that once the Gent says something it is settled. So don’t expect the dear old Gent to do an aobut-face anytime soon.
Yeah. And the Tea Party march in Washingtion only had 10,000 people in it, too…
Right now the journalists’ dereliction of duty is mainly hurting themselves.
Oh, Dennis…I only wish that was true. They hurt us on every battlefield where we strive to keep America safe.
They hurt us in every courtroom, where we try captured enemy combatants.
They hurt us in Guantanamo, they hurt us in Baghdad, they hurt us in Kabul.
They hurt us at the polling booth, keeping John Edwards stories buried and pushing Trig Palin stories.
They hurt us in our financial markets, pounding relentlessly against capitalist gains and promoting socialist dictators abroad.
They hurt us in the voting registration scams and the lack of coverage of ACORN.
They hurt us by burying the story of the Louisiana Purchase and the Cornhusker Kickback.
They hurt us by distorting the story about the stimulus, Fannie & Freddie and Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Franklin Raines, Jim Johnson and Herb Moses role in the same.
They hurt us by hiding the truth about Van Jones, Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, Rashid Khalidi, Ali Abumninah, Mike Klonsky.
They hurt us by distorting who the Tea Party participants are…and who they are not.
They hurt us by false charges of racism against Jason Mattera.
They hurt us by false charges of racism against the Tea Party.
They hurt us by every cheap shot, dirty trick and underhanded omission. By every forged document, by every photoshopped picture, by every “false but accurate” piece of sophistry. They hurt us in a trillion ways, large and small, every day.
They take away our pride, strip us of our dignity, scrape away our honor.
The live in river of sleaze…and make us drink from it every day. That’s our “main stream”….media. I only wish…that they were only hurting themselves.
They hurt us
I agree. The media is deafeningly silent about the collapse of AGW. They are showing their bias when they refuse to report what has been going on over the last couple of months. They must take thier collective head out of the sand. They realize now that they were ‘had’ just the rest of us.
Keep up the battle. Fight the Power!
NBC owned by GE
CBS owned by Westinghouse
ABC part of Disney/CAP
So, two of the three Alphabet MSM’s are owned by major corporations that would reap million/billions of dollars from capn’tax and subsequent AGW money schemes.
Go figure.
The media went “all in” on the Global Warming/Climate Change hoax because they wanted to believe that there was finally a mechanism for socialist takeover of our way of life….and all of their hard work in parroting the progressive mantra all these years was going to pay off.
They collectively elevated Al Gore to that pedestal usually reserved for statesmen…and they didnt need to fact check a damn thing, because he was right, after all, he won and Oscar and a Nobel Prize, didnt he? So they blindly forwarded his bullshit without a second thought as to whether or not it was correct or not. It was a “NEW WORLD, MAAAAAAAAAN!
So now, the rest of the entire world is on to the scam, and is quickly distancing themselves from ever printing anything about it, and running story after story as the CLIMATEGATE house of cards keeps tumbling down. Our media is still stupid enough to believe that they are above reproach…and that no one will ever get to read a dissenting opinion…like it has been for decades.
They forgot about the internet…Al Gore’s invention is now the acid that is corroding the leaky vessel that contains any “inconvenient truths” faster than his carbon footprint on one of his many overseas junkets to exotic places….all warm, by the way. The media has it’s collective head not up their asses, but up Al Gore’s fat ass, and since he stopped abruptly, they are suffocating in the dark, being left to their own devices and coming up woefully short.
They know they perpetuated a monumental lie. They are still thinking that their opinion matters, even after being exposed as part and parcel to the scam of the millenium, and they are afraid to admit it. They are afraid to say they effed up big time. So in this misguided effort to staunch the hemorrhaging subscriptions and readership, they are cutting their own carotid artery to lessen the bleeding in the open wound of their credibility and honesty.
They get what they deserve. Nobody likes or subscribes to dishonest propagandists…and the MSM is discovering way too late that they have been regulated to the dung heap of journalism….simply because they chose to report ideology instead of “just the facts, ma’am”. They, in short, are asshats.
The root cause of the determination of the Lame Brain Media to refuse to utter any refererence to Climategate lies with an academia completely corrupted by Socialism.
We live now n a society where everyone is entitled to a “college education” which promulgates not broad knowledge and reason but blind faith in equality of results, multi-culturalism and moral equivalence. Students stewed in a numbing brew of socialist ideology emerge dedicated to “making this world a better place”, eager to enter nothing so greedy as commerce or science but to go straight into government or NFP organizations, 22 year-olds telling their fellow citizen what they must do – or not do – or else suffer the heavy hand of dictat.; “Journalists” lacking any sense of the true role of the fourth estate. honest reporting and exposure of falsehood, but wholely committed to the “advocac” school of social activism.
You cannot really claim that “the public is aware” of the collapse of the AGW fraud when 60% or more of the electorate gets its news from TV and their daily newspapers which are wilfully ignoring the subject. The National Geographic, Smithsonian, Audubon – all the,major monthlies and most of the “scientific” ones, keep pouring out the “settled science” of the global warming propaganda machine. And the White House joyously embraces it.
The blogosphere is so euphoric over its capability for rapid revelation hat it falls into the “Everyone I talk to knows” fallacy. The “Public” may be somewhat skeptical but is NOT aware of the scale of the blow-back.
The greatest challenge of the Right is how to break the deadly hold of the complicit press which is totally responsible for bringing this crisis upon our Republic.
cfbleachers:
Wow! Well done.
And yet another retraction, scientists retract the “seas will be rising”, based upon two errors.

They have to protect their sanity. Their world view is completely shattered. Give them time, after this period of denial, they’ll settle down on something else, such as the ungovernable American people, to rage against. They are getting there.
From 1772 or so the “American Press” has been notorious for artculating either the status quo (imagine a headline “Colonists Overwhelmingly Disapprove of Rebellion”)or muck-raking for Abolition of one thing or another or against Capitalism. It’s as if the essential qualification to be an American “journalist” requires an empty head and emotions of a sap.

I am beginning to think that maybe we are still in the cold war but the communists are much smarter than they were. The goals of the Leftists are Classic Communist goals. In the past, there was a lot of American Liberalism and American Socialism. Today, it is just power politics in the communist style. Communists are the only people who have been truly Orwellian; that is, only communists always treat the meanings of words as an impediment to power. I hope the National Security Council has an eye on this.
The so-called lamestream media still thinks this is the days of Walter the commie Cronkite or Dan Blather. This somewhat explains why the likes of Chris Mattspews, Kieth the Uberdork and Rachel the Madcow are on the air at an NBC affiliate. The real truth is found in the internet or talk radio, where the real America exists. These pukes are at the bottom of the intelligence scale, but are too dumb to realize it. I guess being overpaid ,underworked, and Ideologically driven lead to this weird form of mental illness. So today we have airhead Couric, blowdry boy Williams, and Dumb Dianne. These 3 combined dont have the Iq of an amoeba. And they are likely the best the lamestream media have to offer, which shows how truly stupid they really are.
Stewart Williamson-totally correct. LAW, ACADEMIA ,MEDIA AND POLITICS was attacked by the STATIST, COMMUNIST, MARXISTS after World War two in particular,but the communist influence in the media went all the way back to Woodrow Wilsons term in office in the early 20th century. Joe McCarthy WAS EXACTLY RIGHT, so the media had to destroy him. Todays Joe McCarthys are the Rush Limbaughs, The Andrew Breitbarts, The Ann Coulters and all the other various conservative media. We now have weapons to fight the media statist scum. What we now need is a similiar effort directed at ACADEMIA. TAKE BACK OUR SCHOOLS. We have only so many Rush babies-we need more. We are behind the enemy by 40 years. Common sense has to break out eventually,I only pray we are not too late.
#5 A Dood: “Thank god [sic] for the internets [sic].”
Shhh! The Internet has been relatively open up till now, but its “inventor” and his cronies are busy making sure it’s the next thing under control.
But then, they haven’t done so great a job controlling the message through the traditional media, so there’s hope.
Fear not. The lamestream media is dying in front of our eyes. Of course, anything we can do to hasten that along is strongly encouraged. (Like posting here on PJM, and keep on getting our news from alternative sources.)
Unfortunately the “average” American still gets his/her knowledge of current events from CBS/NBC/ABC/CNN/their local liberal rag. We keep hoping that is not the case. It still is. I would like to think the “average” American is aware of the stakes involved in Obama’s agenda, but I don’t think they do. It will get ugly once they figure it out.
A return to Medieval Warming would be all to apporpriate, considering that environmentalism has descended into a sort of apocalyptic religiosity that would have fit right in back then.
I think I found the missing media this morning. Here is my read on an AP story by Seth Borenstein which appeared in my local rag and boldly declared that I (we) should “Expect fewer, stronger cyclones….Experts reach consensus on global warming, storms.” The local paper put the article under the not so serious section – “WEATHER” – but on the front page (a sure sign of great and serious importance). It seems that the two scientists who reached the scientific consensus also collaborated on a book. Apparently the two scientists (Landsea and Emanuel) who were at loggerheads since 2005 reached a compromise, (in league with or at least under the influence of unnamed members of “a special World Meteorological Organization panel of 10 experts in both hurricanes and climate change”), by scientifically splitting the difference between global warming causing more or less, stronger or weaker storms. It seems that the two collaborating book authors compromised at fewer…but stronger storms. Sort of like the more taste…. less filling…. scientific method of determining the future. The article doesn’t exactly say so, but I bet they flipped a coin or something. At any rate we are apparently in for stronger but fewer storms (cat 4 or 5) and more damaging winds and rain by the end of the century. Wait a skinny minute… did he say by the end of the century? 2099? Good grief ! Sounds like the local weather forecast on steroids to me.
The article further states that such storms only occur now every 7 years on average…lets see that’s about oh say 13 more storms this century…only fewer…so maybe 12 or even 10 or fewer. Oh, not to worry, the article declares that “Outside experts praised the work”. No mention of any names yet, but James Lee Witt, the former director of FEMA (under Clinton), said that the study was a “stern warning that America needs to be more prepared and protected from the devastation that these types of hurricanes produce”. No word yet on the type of preparedness or protection we would need in oh say 90 years from now from the likes of Landsea, Emmanuel and Borenstein.
Does anyone know of anyplace that one can go to that would list all (or most) of the recent research debunking AGW? My hope would be that if such a resource were available, it could be circulated with maximum impact.
Stephen W. -
Seth Borenstein’s name was mentioned in those CRU emails. He works right along with the lying scientists as a propagandist for this global warming hysteria.
Jimmy D~ Here are two sites which may help you:
http://www.c3headlines.com/
http://co2science.org/index.php
Correctamundo FEDup & stewart williamson. No surprises here. The left controls the campuses and “journalism” schools in particular. To many mush-for-brain “journalism” graduates, “Speak truth to power!” only means criticizing anyone in a position of power who is not towing the leftist line. Notice how no one pursues a career in journalism now; it’s a career in “communications.” Anyhow, ever since Al Gore lost to Bush in 2000, the left, and especially the press, can not stand any disparagement of their hero. After all, this same press dissed Hiliary and swooned over Obama, and promoted this empty suit for the highest position in the land. And, they’ve never met an environmental “cause” they didn’t like or dare to investigate any claims made by the Greenies.
“Where are the American journalists who should be covering the collapse of the man-made warming scare — the biggest hoax in human history?”
Ditto!! And where are the American journalists who should be covering the closed door Democratic meetings that were going on recently? And the millions of pink slips that have been served to congress from disgruntled constituents who have put them on notice that they will be voted out if they don’t shape up?
There are so many things they “choose” not to cover. Why? Who owns them?
My God
I just stumbled on this site, checked out the “science&technology” articles and they are all about “debunking” work that scientists have spent years studying. It should be called AntiScience and Technology.If Pyjamasmedia viewers and commentors reflect average american beliefs then the world is in a lot of trouble.
So you’ve had more snow than usual in parts of the country for one year and all of a sudden decades of studies on the earth’s degrading environment mean nothing and all scientists are socialist lackeys or worse. My god people! Scientists made your country strong and technologically advanced and your lifestyle the envy of the world(unfortunately for Earth)but now you would rather believe people’s opinions rather thabn conclusions drawn from years of observation.
Just so you know, there’s a huge country to the north of you encompassing at least the same area of land or more than the US that has enjoyed one of the warmest winters in years(not just Vancouver). The ice that so many of you claim is proof of cooling is single year thin ice that in no way resembles the thick multiyear ice of the past. The Northwest passage has opened twice in the last”cooling” decade.
America looks to be divided to the point where it can’t be governed. The elites who run global Corporations that plunder Earth’s resources have somehow convinced seemingly large numbers of you that all is well and you should trust them with your childrens future. And how is that working out for you now that they have moved shop to China!
I know it’s futile to try and reason with predetermined attitudes so I can only hope that common sense will prevail in the long run and that somehow enough of you will agree that we are headed for the abyss when earth can no longer support all the poison being dumped on land sea and air and have to purge a large part of life to begin anew. I know many of you probably think that somehow you are the “chosen” that God will protect as you cling to the moral superiority of the right and hatred of “socialism, liberalism and all things progressive.”
Just so you know, America became a beacon to the world because of your democratic,progressive ideas, not your racial hatred and conservatism.
I don’t dismiss all conservative values as some are quite practical so long as they are tempered with a generous heart.
Anyways I wish you and yours all the best but if the attitudes expressed on this site are the views of mainstream america I fear the worst will be upon us.
People. . .people. . .people. . .don’t you understand? America has no mainstream media. MSM sold their souls to the money changers (the people behind the curtain) years ago, and have been walking the streets for them ever since. In America, the Internet is the only credible source of information remaining providing one knows how to navigate the waves of disinformation and propaganda. Oz realized they made a strategic mistake giving the public access to the ‘Net. Initially, their only way to counter the outing of their schemes, scams, and cons was with trolls, hacks, and more propaganda. Failing that, Senators Jay Rockefeller (D-W.V.) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine)introduced Senate Bill S.773 (The Cybersecurity Act of 2009)in April of last year. This bill would give the office of any sitting president the power to disconnect “critical” computer networks from the Internet if he/she/their handlers believe there is a “. . .risk of a cyberattack.” S.773 has been dusted off in 2010 and is being floated after their global warming scam was outed on the internet. If S.773 passes, a sitting president can order a shutdown of all Americans’ access to the Internet. But that’s not all. Even outside of periods of a White House-declared “cyberemergency,” this bill mandates that private-sector networks only be managed by “. . .government-licensed cybersecurity professionals.” Stay tuned for an Oz attempt to control the ‘Net. It will be aimed at bogeymen like “terrorism” or “national security” or a “cyberattack.” And don’t touch that dial! More of the false flag show coming right up.!
38. Perplexed:
I do belive in climate change, I just do not believe it is man made. I can accuse you of ignoring scientific data also. Obviously you did not actually read the article, just the comments. People like you whine about glaciers disappearing, forgetting that glaciers created the Great Lakes thousands of years ago. I’m pretty sure there was no AGW at that point, and that is one heck of a melt, but I’m sure you have some excuse for that. Funny how you folks always ignore the “science” of geology which has actual physical proof and not just theories. I’m just as worried about you as you are me.
Here is a report in the Yale Daily News about a study on global warning attitudes. The purpose of the study, which seems to assume that any global warming is man-made, was “to better galvanize the public to act against climate change, [so] it was important to [learn] the nuances of what Americans think about the topic.” I know neither what sorts of questions were asked nor the demographics of the pool from which respondents were chosen; in view of the purpose of the study, both seem suspect. In any event, here are the findings:
alarmed Americans, which represent 18 percent of the population, are convinced of the reality and seriousness of climate change and are already taking action by reducing their greenhouse gas emissions and lobbying their legislators. Concerned Americans, who make up 33 percent of the public, have similar beliefs but have not taken action yet. Cautious Americans (19 percent), disengaged Americans (12 percent) and doubtful Americans (11 percent) represent decreasing stages of understanding and acceptance of the topic, while dismissive Americans (7 percent) are certain there is no climate change and are actively opposing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Interestingly, those who don’t believe in global warming are characterized as suffering from “decreasing stages of understanding and acceptance of the topic.” The article continues,
The results of the study follow another Yale Project on Climate Change survey that indicates that Americans’ beliefs in the reality of global warming has decreased. The other survey found that only 50 percent of Americans are somewhat or very worried about global warming, a 13-point decrease since 2008. The number of Americans who think global warming is happening also dropped from 71 percent to 57 percent.
Despite the less than even handed approach taken by the press in the United States, the thirteen point decrease since 2008 in true believers is encouraging.
The American media are so engaged in the printing and broadcasting of leftist propaganda that Pravda, long ridiculed as the mouthpiece of the Soviet party line, now mocks them openly. Their pathetic avoidance of anything resembling the truth is now legendary. In an epic time, when 20 million crazed lunatics are doing all they can including suicide to kill our civilization, they are grovelling in the garbage bins of Sara Palin and Dick Cheney and reporting as fact the paranoid fantasies of Gore and the warming hoaxers. Shame upon these pitiful little water-bearers.
38. Perplexed and 40. Don: Ditto, I believe in climate change too, but not man made. Until science can prove how much of climate change is caused by man and not nature, then I might be willing to consider mitigation measures that involve real $$$$ and how damaging it may be to economies worldwide.
Until then I refuse to believe a group of AntiScience [Perplexed] “climatologists” (and the politicians and environmentalists groups that support them without question – including Nobelist Al Gore) when they “fudge” or “cook” the numbers to fit their theories; when they clandestinely disparage and seek to destroy careers of skeptics or editors who disagree with them; when they willfully seek to undermine the peer review process; and when they willfully destroy the original data or intimate that they would rather destroy data than respond to Freedom of Information requests. These are “scientists” who have total disregard for the scientific method and the taxpaying public that fund their research.
Tex Expatriate hit it on the head. The Press has never been objective or remotely accurate about anything. Closing ranks to protect the climate change hucksters is nothing new or remarkable. Lying by omission enables newspapers, magazines, and other news outlets to do incalculable damage without facing lawsuits.
Keep in mind, these people are professional gossips and rumor-mongers, not disinterested fact-finders. In the nineteenth century, newspapers all over the world fell for a faked scientific discovery of bat-human creatures living on the moon. It was concocted by one of the major New York newspapers.
Today moon-bats are still flying out of newspaper offices and pretending to do the world a service. Unfortunately, THEY define “service,” and have decided their own personal beliefs and opinions, which they never question, must be promulgated at all cost. Their arrogance and egotism are repulsive, but par for the course.
Part of the reason that the lame-stream will not admit they are wrong is that they are not “true” journalists. People don’t become reporters to present facts for personal analysis, as used to be the purpose of the career. Now everyone wants “to make a difference.”
Know better than you liberalism is like a mental disorder with no cure!! Unfortunately the newspaper and news stations are chock full of people like this. People who know how to live your life better than you do and are all too ready to do anything they can to get you to toe line. Whether you like it or not!!!
