Journalism truly has become a gutter profession.
That reporter was probably more worried about how his peers back at the paper would react if he gave your story full exposure.
Probably a gang of liberals and he ddn’t want to rub them the wrong way.
I’m not sure if it’s just that, or if there were threats made to newspaper companies as well as to TV and radio media companies.
The reason I say that is because the reporter for the World-Herald interviewed me after my testimony and listened very diligently to what I was saying. She asked for a copy of the booklet I gave the senators and later said that she had read it, and I believe her. She asked me what evidence I based my claims on and was interested to understand. She seemed genuinely grieved over what she was hearing and seemed to me to be a gentle person wanting to understand.
Her report still made the standard boilerplate claims and ignored a lot of what I said, although it did bring up that I had cited legal sources and court cases regarding the definition of “natural born citizen”, which was better than anybody else has done. So even though she had the information and seemed interested in getting it right, her report ended up being only a little bit better than the LJS guy who deliberately deceived. I don’t think she wanted to deceive anybody; I think she was told what she had to say and what she couldn’t say.
Whether that is because newspapers are in the libs’ pockets, or whether they were threatened, I don’t know. I do know that Wall Street Journal has been one of the jerkiest, most backwards newspapers anywhere for censoring me from posting information on their website. And Fox has been the worst at censoring me from posting on their pages. They’re owned by the same people so I’m thinking that the threats extended to radio and TV companies were probably extended also to the newspapers. I have no way of proving that, but it’s a gut feeling.
