Reporters Blame “Right-Wing Media”
for Their Failure to Disclose Biden’s Infirmity

Original Article

Posted By: Beardo, 7/6/2024 11:54:57 PM

The media is sorry . . . sort of. After the shocking appearance of President Joe Biden in the presidential debate, the public has turned its attention to the press which has, again, buried a major scandal for years. According to CNN, the reporters at the White House are really, really sorry but explained that it was the “right-wing media” that prompted them to avoid the story. (snip) So, as an embarrassed press struggled to explain the most recent belated disclosure, the reason is the “right-wing press” and the need to counter their narratives. (snip) They were countering conservatives and framing the news.

Here's hoping the asshat warriors will take another look at FJB agenda of open borders, crime/law & order, inflation and on and on. Look at their covid coverage. They might try a bit of honesty once in awhile. That would be a refreshing difference. No respect for them.

Propaganda: information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. Some of the righteous Lefty media might want to look up Joseph Goebbels and the "good work" he did. Nazi propaganda promoted Nazi (Leftist dem) ideology by demonizing the enemies of the Nazi (dem) Party. Propaganda was also used to maintain the cult of personality around Nazi (dem) leader Adolf Hitler (Joe Biden and other dems before him). The ONLY value the media should be promoting is TRUTH. If reporters want to SELL some idea, they should be working in an ad agency or work for a political campaign. As has been exposed by confrontations at CNN and the WaaPoo as they are forced by financial considerations to reevaluate the way they report, the "news" rooms are totally filled with propagandists who are appalled that they should be truthful in their reporting. Fortunately, media is also business and their businesses are failing because of their bias and lack of credibility. The public's default attitude toward media stories is disbelief. People won't bother watching or buying a product they cannot trust. No income, no media company. Propagandists should learn how to "code".

Second thought: Advocacy journalism is what you put on the editorial page. REPORTING is what goes on the front page, and traditionally, answering Who-What-Where-When (and sometimes Why) in the first paragraph.

A mere modicum of grammatical discipline could have avoided the blatant ambiguity in the headline... Reporters blame their failure to disclose Biden's infirmity on Right-Wing media. Recent generations have taken literacy for granted, and the dangers of poor communication skills are vastly under-appreciated. Collectively heading into the new dark ages.

The old days (when I took 'journalism' classes back in the dark ages) the objective of a 'reporter' was to report the facts. Period. It was up to the reader to analyze the facts. Now 'journalists' tell you only the facts that fit their preconceived opinion of what you should think. And I think it doesn't really matter to them if the 'facts' they give are actually factual.

As I recall, the conservative media did report infirmities. Perhaps, the MSM didn’t notice because they were too busy condemning the conservative report as outrageous GOP lies while reporting that Biden was in great physical and mental condition. This will not cover up the fact that it was the MSM that was lying.

The talking points must have gone out within minutes of the end of President Joe Biden’s lame debate performance. Among the first to tell us just how fine a man Biden was Barack Obama, who called his former vice president “someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life.” It is, of course, a lie. Biden is not a good man, and the idea he’s “fought for ordinary folks” for even a single day of his “public service” is risible. Obama’s tweet also claimed that Biden is the candidate “who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight.”

For years, the Great Barrier Reef has been the poster child for environmentalists warning about the dire consequences of climate change. Predictions of its imminent demise have been frequent, with a focus on coral bleaching events, ocean acidification, and rising sea temperatures attributed to increasing CO2 emissions. However, recent reports indicate that the Great Barrier Reef has hit record coral cover for the third year in a row, challenging these prevailing narratives. Jo Nova, offers a critical examination of the factors contributing to the reef’s unexpected resilience.

Dr. Kevin R. Cannard, a Parkinson’s disease specialist, has visited the White House at least nine times in the last year, official White House visitor logs show. The logs show Dr. Cannard traveled to the White House residence medical clinic each time. He met either with the president’s personal physician or the naval nurse who coordinates care for the president and other top officials, the logs show. Dr. Cannard’s spate of visits began on July 28, 2023 and continued at least through March 28, 2024. The most recently released logs end on April 1, so it is not clear if Dr. Cannard has been to the White House more recently.

It’s just one poll, but anyway, the findings are interesting. The Siena / NY Times poll showed Trump’s lead increasing overall. (snip) One of the more interesting findings in the poll was that men accounted for virtually all of Mr. Trump’s post-debate gains…. In the pre-debate poll, Mr. Trump had led among likely male voters by 12 percentage points. After the debate, his lead among men ballooned to 23 points. That movement was particularly concentrated among younger men and men without college degrees. Mr. Biden’s five-point edge among likely women voters before the debate actually ticked up slightly, to eight points.

Donald Trump’s choice for veep is reportedly down to Gov. Doug Burgum and Sen. J.D. Vance, with Burgum having a slight edge. But the race is changing fast, and the former prez certainly isn’t afraid to shift course to up his odds in response: The larger his landslide, the stronger his mandate and the longer his coattails. So, while North Dakota’s Burgum would be fine (while Vance looks risky in any circumstances), it’s not too late to consider someone like Virginia’s Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who could clinch the case for Trump in a state that’s newly in-play — not to mention among swing voters across the nation.
