Media Admits They Lied About That Russia Collusion Thing But Are Totally Telling The Truth About Everything Else

After John Durham's newly released report confirmed the Trump-Russia collusion narrative was entirely fabricated, several notable media figures admitted they lied to the American people for 3 years but promised that they're totally telling the truth about everything else.

"I would never lie to the American people. Except for that one time. That doesn't count," said CBS News Anchor Scott Pelley. "Just look at how serious and trustworthy my face is. Look at my sincere gaze as I stare soulfully into the camera and deliver my prepared lines with the gravitas of a real truth-teller. Come on!"

"You can still trust us," agreed CNN Anchor and part-time anonymous message board foot model Jake Tapper. "Even though we divided the country in hatred and anger for three years to try to destroy Trump over a false narrative, and then continued to do so even after we found out it was fake, and then insulted the intelligence of everyone who was skeptical about what we were saying, it doesn't mean we would ever lie to you or anything."

Media-approved anonymous sources claim that 10 out of 10 media experts agree that in spite of the lies about Trump and Russia, Americans should still unquestionably believe every claim the media makes about Ukraine, COVID, domestic terrorism, the 2020 election, and who is a racist and who isn't.

At publishing time, Joy Reid also chimed in, saying everyone who doesn't agree with her is a racist.

It’s probably safest to just assume everything they say is a lie until proved otherwise. I mean, if you found out the $20 someone gave you is fake, are you going to take another from the same person?

It’s all lies.
And we don’t have a government.
These people are just looters who have positions of power.
There is nothing legitimate about anything which is going on in the 21st century.

Many have suspected it for about 30+ years now?

Then there’s what BushCountry on FR said elsewhere:

“The [Durham] report also stated that the FBI refused to investigate her crooked foundation and Clinton’s involvement in creating the controversy surrounding Trump’s collusion with Russia.”

Prolly longer. But at least they threw us a crumb or two to keep us believing. The scales have fallen from many eyes. We used to have common goals just different methods to get there. we have little in common with the “Progressives” . Where does this take us from here?

He already tried, it was dismissed.

Because in the current “justice system” only Republicans get to be defendants and Democrats get to be Plantiffs.

More confirmation bias than lies. Why should we believe you about Covid or Global Warming? You are as easily duped about those things as about Russia™.

I know this is satire. But I wonder if the democrat media understands that more people than not have tuned them out and won’t listen to them at all anymore. Their ratings prove that out. Americans don’t like being lied to and most of us know cheap political propaganda when we hear it.

I wonder how much bribe money was paid to the FIB out of the Clinton foundation’s coffers to buy protection?

We have NOTHING in common with progressives. We’re diametrically opposed to them now.
