Making fun of news media becomes America's new laugh-out-loud pastime

One classic is, "What is a shipload of lawyers that sinks in the ocean?"

"A good start."

But now they're losing their place. The new subjects for the sometimes ribald, sometimes outlandish, and mostly funny stories are journalists. (Watch out for the R-rated ones on that link).

Twitchy, that aggregator of Twitter social media comments, has pointed out that #JournalistJokes is a new, and big, hashtag on social media.

"Full transparency, folks. At this point in the week, we’re just SO GLAD to write about anything other than the freakin' coronavirus. We realize it's the biggest story in the WORLD right now but we're guessing like us, dear reader, you could use a little break. And what better way to take that break than laughing … well, pointing and laughing at the media. Hey, they've earned it at this point, don’t you think?"

The first headline I was greeted with this morning came from the Associated Press, informing us all that the Trump administration “wasted two months” before acting on the pandemic.

I suspect that kind of unsubstantiated opinion peddled as “news” will be the MSM talking point from now until November.

Sadly, there are way too many LIV’s that will lap it up.

I saw that as well. No mention of obxxx and nuzzlin’joe ignoring the reduction in supplies after norovirus or pig flu or whatever debacle they DIDN’T oversee.

“”” Bottom line, the head of the news divisions encourage this disrespect and lying, they hate Trump and love that they can employ these children to act foolish.”””


Not only do the heads of the news divisions encourage the disrespect, the home office staff of the media is sending text messages to the reporters at Trump’s press conference to have them ask specific gotcha questions.

Well, those children sitting there couldn't string together a full sentence, so they need the help to formulate proper rude gotcha questions.
