Many on the right are still gloating
about the 2024 elections and the “fact” that wokeness is in full-fledged
retreat. Why, they say, corporations, a few Democrat influencers and donors…
and even the media are beginning to see the light.
Call me a skeptic (and many have),
but:
NBC News recently bent over backward
to avoid "misgendering" Robin Westman, the would-be mass murderer who
shot at children and adults who were praying inside Annunciation Catholic
Church in Minneapolis, killing two and injuring 17. But, to the network,
the real crime was that it used male pronouns in its original article when
describing the shooter and his heinous crime. NBC subsequently issued a
correction reading: "A previous version of this article used the wrong
pronoun for the shooter. She used female pronouns.” Sure, the satanic bastard destroyed
the lives of multiple families, but NBC thought it owed it to her—actually
him—to abide by his preferred pronouns. Monstrous.
Not to be outdone, ABC News declined
to report that Westman had placed the message "Kill Donald Trump”
on the magazine of one of his weapons. Instead, ABC News chose to report that
Westman had written "the name of President Trump" on the firearm, effectively
insinuating he was somehow a Trump supporter, the polar opposite of the truth.
This is outrageous, akin to reporting that John Wilkes Booth was at Ford’s
Theater “hoping to see President Lincoln.”
And, of course, CBS got into the act, despite the fact it had previously
been sued by President Trump for substantively altering an interview with then
Vice-President Kamala Harris in an attempt to make her appear less incoherent…and
enhance her chances of defeating Trump in the 2024 Presidential election, a
lawsuit it lost. This time CBS only aired a part of Homeland Security Secretary
Kristi Noem’s response to a question pertaining to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an
illegal immigrant that the Trump administration deported to El Salvador earlier
this year. In the clip that CBS aired, Noem stated, "Prosecution decisions
are always made by the Department of Justice and Pam Bondi’s department, so we
will let them do that, although this individual does have criminal charges
pending. He has charges pending against him civilly as well. And the one thing
that we will continue to do is to make sure that he doesn’t walk free in the
United States of America."
Here is the rest of Noem’s answer,
that CBS edited out:
"This individual was a known
human smuggler, an MS-13 gang member, and an individual who is a wife beater,
and someone who is so perverted that he solicited nude photos from minors and
even his fellow human traffickers told him to knock it off. He was so sick in
what he was doing and how he was treating small children. So, he needs to never
be in the United States of America, and our administration is making sure we’re
doing all that we can.” Why do you think CBS didn’t include Noem’s full reply
to the question she was asked? Could it be it was because the rest of her
answer contained facts that made Abrego Garcia look like the dirt bag he is…and
that runs counter to The Narrative? You think?
Hilariously, CBS is still insisting
that the aired interview-- and processes leading up to it-- met the network's standards.
I have no doubt that is the case. It
is also the problem.
Once again, it is impossible to
disdain and despise the mainstream media to the degree it deserves.
