“We gave them away.”
I think a lot of people (but not me) were fooled by the media.
Long ago newspapers trained their own reporters—The copy boy became the cub reporter then the main reporter with a bi-line and lastly a columnist. Now they hire from Universities and their Media departments that churn out leftists who would make Marx Blush. No wonder all the news people are raving communists—they were trained that way. Long ago the TV News people came from the papers. In our age Clark Kent would never have gotten a job at the Daily Planet and Jimmy Olsen never advanced up the ladder. I don’t know about Lois Lane—but she was always a lefty.
Yes they were fooled.
But as responsible adults we are required to think critically.
