Just when you think the media can't get more stupid or contemptible, you get NBC's Brandy Dadrozny telling readers today, "Disinformation poses an unprecedented threat to democracy in the United States in 2024, according to researchers, technologists and political scientists."
It takes your breath away, does it not, the gall of these people?
They do nothing but mislead the public 24 hours a day, and they can pretend somebody else is to blame for "disinformation"?
The US regime lies to the public all the time, and yet the media never condemns it as a purveyor of "disinformation."
When you and I speak uncomfortable or embarrassing truths, now that's what these creeps consider "disinformation."
Two years ago I reported on a CNN panel on disinformation held at the University of Chicago. At that event a freshman named Christopher Phillips stood up and identified the real source of disinformation:
You've all spoken extensively about FOX News being a purveyor of disinformation. But CNN is right up there with them. They pushed the Russian collusion hoax, they pushed the Jussie Smollett hoax, they smeared Justice Kavanaugh as a rapist, and they also smeared Nick Sandmann as a white supremacist. And yes, they dismissed the Hunter Biden laptop affair as pure Russian disinformation.
With mainstream corporate journalists becoming little more than apologists and cheerleaders for the regime, is it time to finally declare that the canon of journalistic ethics is dead or no longer operative?
All the mistakes of the mainstream media, and CNN in particular, seem to magically all go in one direction. Are we expected to believe that this is all just some sort of random coincidence, or is there something else behind it?
Boom.
Vivek Ramaswamy recently came up with a bunch of good examples of particularly egregious cases of media disinformation, among them:
Russia collusion
The Hunter Biden laptop story
The "very fine people" hoax (mischaracterization of Trump's remarks after Charlottesville)
Bubba Wallace and the alleged "noose" in his garage stall (that turned out to be a garage door pull rope)
Jussie Smollett
Covington Catholic students
Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot
Steele dossier
Florida's "don’t say gay" bill
Georgia eintegrity law (described preposterously as "the new Jim Crow" )
Duke lacrosse case
January 6th
"Mostly peaceful” BLM riots
Ivermectin as a horse dewormer
Trump’s alleged use of tear gas for Bible photo
During the lockdown period a large number of folks sought the truth inside my private group for supporters, because they knew they'd be getting the opposite of the truth on the networks and in the papers.
I'll keep on plugging away on the Tom Woods Show to play my part in defeating disinformation.
