That election event was worse than Watergate (I’m old enough to remember both) since Obama used the powers of the government to spy on American citizens.
They voted for HRC.
Besides being lowlifes? Well they wanted to pretend to be Woodward & Bernstein who btw are lowlifes.
That’s right; they all work for the same people - the “media” is the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party, nothing less (and nothing more).
You are correct. Watergate was a Media coup.
The media destroyed a president they disliked, with a crisis they mostly created.
We have been living in a mediacracy since, though you could argue it really started when they destroyed McCarthy.
democrats still screaming about obstruction- Juliani shuts them down by saying something along the lines of “It’s impossible for there to be obstruction if there is no underlying crime”
Boom- No crime, no obstruction- period!
The lame stream media has no longer any serious journalism and has become the propaganda arm of the DNC. It was obvious during the Bush and Obama years when every network parroted the same DNC talking points. With Trump the press morphed into a 25/7 version of Orwell’s ”Two minute hate” where the talking heads give spittle spewing rants about Trump’s utter evil. Hillary’s minions created the Russia collusion narrative as part of an orchestrated effort to topple Trump and prop up Hillary after her humiliation at the pols. This narrative was manipulated by the DOJ and FBI into what can only be characterized as an attempted coup. Sedition was rampant all the way to the Obama White House. The media was wholly complicit in this attempted coup.
“I think a huge number of them believed it”
(Oh sure, and, Joseph Goebbels was actually a sincere, mistaken chap.)
“They were in on the conspiracy. They didn’t believe it because they helped to fabricate the lie.”
Amen, brother/sister.
Now, instead of aspiring to be agents of accuracy and truth, those in journalism want to ‘change the world’, and feel justified in spinning what they report and write in a manner that pushes their messianic agenda. Pathetically, it's all about ego. ;
I believe a few highly placed, elite, news editors drove this. The peon copy writers were sympathetic to it because of their journalism school indoctrination, but had no choice in what was actually published. They knew what to write to please their bosses, but couldn’t have written the truth without losing their jobs.
Why? Because much of big media is the propaganda/communications division for deep state. Like foreign countries they seek to destabilize, or overturn, they always go after the communications, Including right here in the United States.
IF any of the media those involved are essentially decent human beings, then they just have collectively suffered from Dan Rather disease. They believed it because they wanted it to be true, and ignored the proportional font of reality. The only that this could have been worse for them if it was printed at Kinkos.
And they wanted another Watergate without accepting that reality either. Nixon won 49 states in the 1972 election; if the Watergate break in had not happehed, Nixon would have won 49 states.
Another favor to hitlery/obama

Trial by media...
Remember how the press fawned over Michael Avenatti for months?
Out here in flyover we spotted his creepy type within minutes. He's a bad guy. Journalists didn't catch on to what he was until it was thrown in their little faces.
Didn't that strike you as weird at the time?
I think people in the press can't tell the difference between good people and bad people. Journalists usually can't do math either. And they're more emotional and easily fooled. It might have to do with extremely high verbal skills. Brain over-development in one area at the expense of other areas. People with math over-development also have their own sets of 'in common' traits.
I think people in the press can’t tell the difference between good people and bad people.
But they do try - I've known journalists and too many of them lack that deep understanding that allows a person to tell the difference between good people and bad people. It's weird.
Still stranger to see it on a large scale ... so many of them falling for a thug like Avenatti for so long. Or for a 'Beto' ... Beto's such a jerk. And they can't see it.
It's a mystery
