The editor of The Plain Dealer in Cleveland told readers that critical coverage of Donald Trump was necessary despite their objections.
“The north star here is truth,” Chris Quinn wrote in a letter from the editor on Saturday. “We tell the truth, even when it offends some of the people who pay us for information.”
“The truth is that Donald Trump undermined faith in our elections in his false bid to retain the presidency,” he continued. “He sparked an insurrection intended to overthrow our government and keep himself in power. No president in our history has done worse. This is not subjective. We all saw it.”
Quinn expressed sympathy with Trump fans who were frustrated that their local news source does not “recognize what they see in [Trump].” But that won’t stop the coverage. “The facts involving Trump are crystal clear, and as news people, we cannot pretend otherwise, as unpopular as that might be with a segment of our readers,” he wrote. “There aren’t two sides to facts. People who say the earth is flat don’t get space on our platforms. If that offends them, so be it.”
Quinn wrote that President Joe Biden’s “mindset” and “success” were up for debate but cited the “false equivalency” by some readers who equate him to Trump.

Sadly, the majority of Internet users have their Internet browsers set to start up and go directly to something like:
https://www.[name of metropolitan area][live].com
Or to google.com, yahoo.com, abc|cbs|cnn|nbc .something
And search engines are now a disaster that reply with dozens of “results” from those same narrative-foundries.
Absolutely no one has been charged for any insurrection, but they continuously call it an insurrection. It’s all just a BIG FAT LIE and that’s why they’re all repeating it endlessly.

He probably thought Al Gore’s selective recounts in Florida were just fine.
Not the truth at all!
left misuse of language is part of the reason they believe so many preposterous things
Libtards must smear Trump even if it offends just like they always have from the very beginning before he was even elected
So, when does the truth telling start?
Because there isn’t a shred of it told in this bit of propaganda..
“This is not subjective. We all saw it.”
In my dealings with leftists on the internet for almost 30 years, is that there are many of them that see and hear things that simply did not happen. They are literally delusional.
One time some liberal woman claimed we conservatives condone rape. Of course, I denied it. To my surprise, for proof she provided a link right back here to freerepublic. It was a thread about some female in the military accusing fellow soldiers of sexually harassing her.
There was some debate as to whether or not she was telling the truth, but not a single comment condoning rape. I pointed this out to her and her response was “maybe I misspoke”
This dude is brave. Most of the media is afraid to say anything negative about Donald Trump.
Basically what they all say
“We are going to tell the truth even it alienates half the nation because Trump blah blah blah”
Within days they called any questioning of election malfeasance The Big Lie just like they did over Covid or Russiagate
Whatever new happens they just all run with same talking points
I’ve seen a half dozen media mouthpieces all ape same tack today and over the weekend
Like this guy is an arbiter of truth. I would bet if you go back there are stacks of writings hating Trump and Republicans going way back.
The true is, that's a lie.
That's not the north star, Chris - it's Uranus.
In other words, he's more than happy to flip the bird at the MAGA Trumper's. This nation's going to have to go through a correction.
No kidding... Some of the inner city polling places had more ballots come in than they had registered voters, and by a lot. They went ahead and counted them all as valid anyway, even though they were obviously not, and that would have been easy to prove. But, I guess all those ballots were marked the democrat approved way, so they just snuck them through.
That whole entire election season was a deal breaker for America, and the democrats have exposed themselves as the totalitarian Stalinist's they are.
They’ve all got the same script, the same slander, the same lies.
