The Media Reacts in Typically Disgusting Fashion to the Al-Baghdadi Killing
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 10/28/2019 4:53:15 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Our fake news media’s love affair with Islamic terrorists never dims, nor does its knee-jerking to take every possible shot at President Donald Trump, no matter how absurd it might be. – The Washington Post got things started in the immediate wake of the announcement of the U.S. military’s killing of the mass murdering ISIS “leader” with the most sympathetic headline it could muster to describe him: “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, austere religious scholar at helm of Islamic State, dies at 48.”

Oh, see, the guy who ordered his forces to film the chopping off of innocent victims’ heads and posting them on the Internet wasn’t a terrorist, oh no. Why, he was just an “austere religious scholar” in the minds of the American news media. After the Post began collecting flak from outraged readers, its depraved editors made the decision to “correct” the headline:

The Washington Post appeared to change the headline for ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's obituary. The headline changed from calling him the “Islamic State’s ‘terrorist-in-chief'" to calling him an "austere religious scholar at the helm of the Islamic State." It appeared to change once again to call him an "extremist leader."

So, he’s still not a “terrorist,” but now at least he’s an “extremist leader.” The Washington Post has a rule against using the words “Islamic terrorist” still to this day. Holy crap.

Not to be outdone, Bloomberg followed the WaPo example with this little bit of despicable nonsense:

Don Jr.'s tweet was referring to this Sunday morning tweet by Bloomberg Politics

So, in the minds of the folks at Bloomberg, al-Baghdadi was just a poor boy who made good, and his terrorist organization that mass-murdered tens of thousands and displaced millions suddenly morphs into an “entity” that “covered swaths” of the two countries that it in fact raped and pillaged. You seriously could never make these fake journalists up.

Oh, hey, but what about the New York Times? Surely, the terrorist-sympathizing slugs on the Times staff could never allow themselves to take second chair to the WaPo when it comes sucking up to ISIS, right?

Right.

Here is the tweet the Times sent out summarizing its lead story on the success of the U.S. military operation:

In its story, the Times pretends to have “multiple sources” for its obviously false narrative which is not supported by anyone with any knowledge, but fails to identify a single one of them. Just one more in a very, very long line of fake news stories published by the Times to make its rabidly anti-Trump reader base feel better about another in a very, very long line of Trump wins.

Finally, we come to the hacks at Politico, who really and truly wrote this after the President was booed at last night’s World Series game between the Washington Nationals and the Houston Astros:

IT’S A SIGN OF THE PRESIDENT’S ISOLATION, too, that he took only his staunchest Republican allies with him to the game, along with the first lady. Nats Park is perhaps one of the only gathering places in town that draws Republicans and Democrats in equal measure — but his box was all red.

THAT SAID … He was under no obligation to notify Speaker NANCY PELOSI ahead of the Baghdadi raid, but telling her and other top Democrats would’ve bought a huge chunk of goodwill. Pelosi — a former top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee — has been trusted with state secrets for decades. There is approximately zero chance she would’ve dialed up a reporter to leak the plans.

What a load of abject horse manure. First of all, Washington, DC is about 90% Democrat, as clearly demonstrated in the 2016 election results. Thus, the crowd at that game – which the Astros, a team from the very Red state of Texas, thankfully won – was most likely overwhelmingly Blue. Given the sorry behavior of Democrats in this day and time, it was easily predictable that they would boo President Trump, who they all hate with a demonic passion.

Second, thought that pre-briefing San Fran Nan, Adam Schiff and other congressional Democrats would have “bought a huge chunk of good will” is so transparently absurd that it is hard to believe that even a fake news hack from Politico would actually write it.

What, are we to believe that Adam Schiff would have been so moved by a pre-briefing on a military raid that would suddenly develop a sense of ethics and love of country? Are we to really think that San Fran Nan would have responded by calling off the whole Soviet-style impeachment operation? Did the writer of this piece just escape from his baby crib? A mental ward?

Every patriotic American is today celebrating the U.S. military operation that killed one of the most despicable mass murderers in world history. Is it any surprise to any of you patriotic Americans that the Democrats and their toadies who infest your national news media are not joining you in doing so?

That is all.

I'll channel the NYT and WaPo a bit here: Since they claim he was "just" an austere religious leader, I will have to assume they approve of him pulling out the fingernails of an American and then repeatedly raping her and claiming she was his "wife".

Way to go American media...

The Lying Media’s response is proof positive they know this makes Trump look like the true leader he is, and that his decision on Syria was spot on!

The media can try and spin this any way they want...Americans see Trump as a decisive leader!

Well, that's the biggest pantload of crap I've seen for a while.

Trump has done well to shut her and Schitt-fer-brains out of ANYTHING he does as Commander-in-Chief...'cause we all know that they leak like sieves.

Period.

Another example of the polarized nature of society where the evil people gather like hyenas. Another step closer to conflict.

Even readers of fake news have been bombarded for years about the horrors of ISIS. As recently as the news cycle before Trump killed this SOB the fakers were attacking Trump for troop movements that might allow ISIS to rebound. Now on a dime it’s “austere religious leader” who Trump dissed by calling him bad names. I know these fake news readers are group think idiots but are they really manipulated that easily by the democrat stooge press that they’ll hungrily lap up this latest BS?
