Ever noticed how criminal defendants always claim their victims are lying? No matter how much evidence has been presented to show their guilt, when the prosecutor asks the defendant "what do you say about all these witnesses testifying against you?" They always claim "they're all lying". If you watch the majority of Mockingbird television commentators, they all say pretty much the same thing. When the alt-right media asks "Where's your journalistic integrity?" They all read from the same script: 'We must protect our democracy from misinformation. It's FOX News and the other right-wing extremists that are lying. All of them'. The mainstream media speak in near perfect syncopated harmony across multiple news programs like The Evening News, Meet The Press, CNN's Reliable Sources and dozens of others. Whatever the current headline story is, it is articulated with precisely worded, often misleading narratives. Sometimes the biggest lies are lies of omission. For example, President Biden proclaimed, "Can you believe the MAGA extremists want to ban books? Ban Books for God's sake!" Of course the storyline omitted the important qualifying word that Republicans want to ban PORNOGRAPHIC books from elementary school libraries and curricula, not public libraries or retail booksellers. Selective media messaging is nothing less than propaganda. The Mockingbirds smear any media platform that challenges the administration's approved dogma. FOX News is the primary recipient of slander and unsupported claims of "lying" to an audience that dwarfs all of the Mockingbird viewership. Apparently the public invests a higher degree of credibility in FOX than in news organizations that simply repeat the party line. The Mockingbird Media reinforce their self importance with gratuitous awards. In 2018 the Washington Post and the New York Times received Pulitzer Prizes for their reporting on the now totally debunked Trump RussiaGate hoax. Knowing what we know now, those fabricated reports led to his impeachment hearings and interfered with his reelection efforts. Was anyone held accountable? Did they return the awards? No. Meantime, the Mockingbirds continue to claim that FOX News lies. Fake Newsgroups have misinformed their audiences repeatedly on important stories such as the likelihood of the EU rejecting the BREXIT initiative, on the origins and status of the war in Ukraine, on projected deaths from COVID19, and on the safety and effectiveness of the mRNA vaccines (Johns Hopkins University, January 2022). They lied about the metal cages used to separate and imprison illegal immigrants at the Mexican border. It turned out it was Biden's policy, not Trumps. Let's not overlook their collusion to ignore and impugn any accurate reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop from hell. The White House regularly lies about a variety of subjects. They claim to have created 15M "new" jobs. The truth is the overwhelming majority of those are the return of 22M jobs lost during Biden's extended lockdown. It is one thing to go back to a job that was artificially shut down, as opposed to finding work after your manufacturing job was shipped overseas (Ben Winck, Insider, Aug. 5, 2022). Several major financial institutions have collapsed in just the last few weeks, and dozens of bank stocks are crashing, but the WH says our banking system is secure and stable (Reuters, May 2, 2023). Biden claims that inflation was on the rise before he was elected, when the evidence is clear it was at an all time low four years ago (1.81% in 2019 > 4.98% now). The Federal Reserve has increased the money supply (printed dollars) by 30% just since the end of 2019 (Fee.org Oct. 2022). More money in circulation decreases its buying power. Simple as that. Biden's Border Czar, VP Kamala Harris, claims the border is secure. WH spokesperson, Karine Jean-Pierre, recently claimed that the illegal immigration rate has "come down more than 90%!" Testifying before Congress, Border Patrol Chief Modlin said: “I can tell you that in fiscal year ‘18, ‘19, and ‘20, the Tucson sector had about 60,000 apprehensions. In 2021,190,000 apprehensions, so we tripled the previous year… Last year it quadrupled. Last year it was 250,000. We’re 20,000 ahead right now so we went from what I would describe as unprecedented to a point where I don’t have the correct adjective to describe what’s going on.” When the White House ordered an additional 1500 troops to help secure the "secure" Southern border, the NY Times covered the obviously contradictory directive by explaining the end of Title 42 "might lead to increased border violations". Media pandering is beyond disingenuous. The Mockingbird Media is lying about the liars in Washington. |
