Shotened title.

Full title: Exclusive — Ann Coulter Post-Election Review: Media Bias, ‘Fake News,’ and Burning Down the Conservative Establishment

Appearing on a special holiday edition of Breitbart News Daily with SiriusXM host Alex Marlow, columnist Ann Coulter talked about how the media got the election wrong, its obsession with de-legitimizing alternative media as “fake news,” and the need to rebuild a conservative Washington establishment that was as wrong-headed as the liberal media in 2016.

The author of In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome! said she found the current media obsession with “fake news” amusing, since as she documented in her book, so many of the stories pushed about Donald Trump during 2016 were false – “from the mocking of a disabled reporter, claiming that he was referring to Megyn Kelly’s menstrual period, that he lied about Muslims celebrating the 9/11 attack.”

Remember that the left projects its own actions and motivations onto its opponents. That’s all you need to know to understand their current fixation on “fake news.”

Although I am sure Ann Coulter has some interesting insights. I bought “In Trump We Trust” the day after the election, but I have yet to read it.

Derivative News. The author should just post a link to the video or provide a transcript.

Heard a long screed on NPR “Everything Considered” on Friday about the “fake news sites” on the internet that was “praising” the Clinton operative/supporter/snide whiner who was boasting (along with NPR’s breathlessly enthusiastic “reporter/propagandist”) with creating multiple fake news sites to deliberately confuse Trump supporters and support their “gullible fantasies” with fake stories.

Not a SINGLE word in several hours about Clinton’s real crimes and corruption! But praise for a fake news writer who was making millions by selling internet advertising space (to Trump supporters) who were following links about fake FBI agents killed when they threatened to go public about Hillary’s investigations.

See, to NPR, a fake news story written about a fake reporter about fake FBI agents being killed to delude Trump supporters is much more important than real investigations about real crimes committed by a real democrat who is really corrupt. But has a vagina!

“The author should just post a link to the video or provide a transcript.”

The article provides a summary of the interview and a link to the interview.

If someone does not want to listen to the entire interview he can read the summary.

If someone wants to hear the entire interview he can go to the link.

The best of both worlds.

More and more on FR I am seeing headlines about a certain article, yet the link goes to an article about the article. Sometimes there is three layers, as when a person has something to say about an article discussing an original article on NYT or WaPo. It takes four or five clicks to get to the original article mentioned in the headline.
