'I see dead people,' and they're the liberal media
americanthinker.com ^ | Deborah C Tyler

Posted on 11/17/2016 6:56:18 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Left-wing news media, from desiccated dowagers like the New York Times to strumpets like Salon and the Huffington Post, are dead and don't know it. They only see what they want to see. People who recently thought themselves so powerful – Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi; the list is very, very long – are walking around like regular people, but their existence is over. So many are dead and don't know it. They were murdered by their own hypocrisy. They claimed to be publishing the truth, but they offered only the half-truth of blind dogma. They claimed to fight for freedom but created more lifeless government control. They claimed to stand for inclusiveness, but all they offered was soul-killing blame to the outsider.

Like the dead psychologist who could see only his theory of illness in the boy, the recently powerful deceased were poisoned by their own prejudices. They wail of their delusions from the darkness. They are useless specters with no power except futile yowls of hateful names – racist, sexist, phobic this and phobic that – against the living. Hate was the last thing they knew in life and all they can speak in death.

Great article. Not only about political truths but spiritual truth.

It was amazing to hear so many liberals, especially in comments on obviously liberally-biased articles, that the writer or newspaper was so “Trump biased,” instead.

These libs have no idea how far left they really are, to call us “Alt Right” or “Extreme Right Wing” people.

And they got their butts handed to them by a media so inherently liberal that HuffPo claimed it was “98%” certain Hillary would win, as of Election Day.

I enjoy the taste of your tears, liberals.

'I see dead people ...'

It's just classic symptoms of Recent Election Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder.

There are plenty of walking dead on the “right” as well.
National Review and all of their supposed “conservative” writers.
Conservative Review and it’s editor in chief Mark Levin.
The entire Bush family and their hangers-on and former lackeys.
All of those supposed national security and foreign policy “experts” who signed onto that NeverTrump letter.
The globalist stooges in Congress who have been helping the Democrats import poverty and leftist voters.

That was the thought that struck me when the MSM was showing scenes of all those Millennials walking around the streets of NY and other cities...mumbling with heads down buried in their smart phones. It looked like a scene from the Walking Dead without the make up and prosthetics.

We need aggressive measures to put them out of business. Ideas? Should I cancel my cable? My wife loves the Hallmark Channel.

Today it is Bannon. Tomorrow the bloodless ghosts will fling furies against someone else.

There is no point to answer them. They cannot hear anything but their own bitter frenzy.

Well articulated by author Deborah C Tyler.

"Today it is Bannon."

For the sake of argument, let's concede that over the years Bannon has said or done a few questionable things. That puts him in the category of "human."

But over the last few months, we've seen - through our own recollections, or through WikiLeaks or other sources - that Hillary Clinton, her aides and associates, and the MSM - also do and say many questionable things. The MSM virtually ignored most of those questionable things, focusing almost entirely on trying to bring down Trump. In the week since the election, we've seen that this is going to continue.

Within one week, the MSM reverted to Bush II mode, in which virtually EVERY act or statement by the president-elect is scrutinized, nitpicked, and criticized, often with unattributed sources making unprovable claims.

The media's eight year slumber is over, and they will reassume their role as government "watchdogs" with a vengeance, and vengeance is a key word. They want to get back at Trump for having the temerity to defy them and actually win.

They are not dead, they are currently reloading and will continue their agenda driven propaganda and call it objective news reporting. Don’t ever take them for granted, we need to continue to work to make them irrelevant!

Spot on, Steve. Only this is Bush II Mode of micro-nitpicking and viciousness on steroids. Have you witnessed the seemingly coked-out, frothing mania at either CNN or MSNBC...say last night?? Insane.

[V]engeance is a key word. They want to get back at Trump for having the temerity to defy them and actually win.

It's a vengence and venom targeting not only Trump but we the 60-odd million people who voted for Trump.

This MSM will say and do ANY thing (and suggest that same notion to their insane viewership) to stop Trump from governing. "BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY." They've swerved into dangerous territory that many say is seditious and subliminally suggestive of the unthinkable.
