WASHINGTON POST: AMERICANS BELIEVING THE MEDIA IS A “PATRIOTIC”* DUTY. At Frontpage, Daniel Greenfield writes:

Margaret Sullivan has been melting down for a while. But this meltdown, as the public backs further away from impeachment, is truly glorious.

“I don’t know what to believe’ is an unpatriotic cop-out. Do better, Americans.” – Washington Post

We’re in Bertolt Brecht territory here. Time to replace the people with a people the media approve of. Open borders for everyone.

More from Sullivan:

If every American did any two of the following things, the “who knows?” club could be swiftly disbanded. Subscribe to a national newspaper and go beyond the headlines into the substance of the main articles; subscribe to your local newspaper and read it thoroughly — in print, if possible; watch the top of “PBS NewsHour” every night; watch the first 15 minutes of the half-hour broadcast nightly news; tune in to a public-radio news broadcast;…

That’s pretty rich coming from a columnist at a newspaper that tweeted yesterday, “Trump tweets doctored photo of his head on Sylvester Stallone’s body, unclear why.”

Frontpage’s slogan is “Inside Every Progressive Is A Totalitarian Screaming To Get Out,” and Sullivan’s “do better Americans” demand is simply a kinder and gentler sounding version of the eternal primal scream of writers employed by the Post: “Yeah, I’m in the media. Screw you.”

* Which the left believes is the last refuge of a deplorable scoundrel.
