I remember when a columnist marveled that Bush won a second term while “running against the media”

"Before that. You should have seen what they did to Joe McCarthy and Barry Goldwater."

I was in Vietnam at that time and didn't get much political news, but I was in South America From January to October 1992 and only could get the U.S. news on CNN on the rare occasion I stayed in a hotel in the city. CNN run a constant diatribe on what a loser President Bush was and how we needed Bill Clinton to save our country. That was to be expected from CNN (Communist News Network), but when I returned to the U.S. in October, I found ABC, CBS, and NBC doing the same thing.

How George W. Bush managed to get elected and reelected can only be because Fox News came along with "Fair and Balanced" news, and I've depended on them for my political news ever since.

"We have become the most entrenched example of crony capitalism that has ever existed (after all we have greater wealth to exploit in this way)."

If a Democratic Republic doesn't protect its electoral system from voter fraud, it will lose its Democracy to a Thugocracy, as we have lost ours to a Chicago Mob coup d' etat.

As criminals now run our government and the rule of law no longer applies to them, we meet the definition of a Thugocracy, and not Communist.

Like shooting fish in a barrel. Thankfully, Justin Raimondo, a brilliant scholar of Murray Rothbard’s economics, has done the work for us.

Deception in the media and irresponsible journalists are harmful to our Federal Republic. The media defeated Nixon in 1974 and smelled blood. The media has tapped into demonic forces to stay energized. They are defeated by everyday Americans who ignore their garbage.

I hang out with two brilliant people who write for the LA Times. We never talk shop. They do not want to talk about the LA Times. Painful subject, like talking about working at the DMV. They are fearful of losing their jobs. They should be. We just never talk about it.

What person with a lick of sense watches the MSM nowadays? The internet has made the alphabet networks, the major newspapers, and assorted radio and TV “personalities” totally irrelevant. I haven’t wasted my time with their BS in years.

To call them the “mainstream media” only does them a favor. There is nothing mainstream about their beliefs or reporting.

The term “The Corrupt Liberal Media” is much more accurate and if it becomes widely used will do more to blunt their power than hundreds of scholarly articles like this one.

The left is good at creating the terms in the language that enable them to control the narrative. Words like homophobia, Islamophobia, Sexist, Transgender, etc etc.

The operative word in “The Corrupt Liberal Media” is “Corrupt”. Liberalism has killed journalism. Use the CLM term every time you discuss liberal media bias. In the long run it will hurt them badly.

Once again I will state that media coverage of this election is and has become the single biggest gaslighting operation in US history.

It's globalist vs nationalists.

Almost all of the MSM are ashamed of the USA and are are devout globalists. Many Freepers are globalists too.

W. was elected initially because despite all the hype about BJ Clinton’s “economic accomplishments”, by 2000 the economy was in bad shape for us little people. Gore would have destroyed W. if the Clinton economy was half of what it was hyped to be...
