Media Malfeasance

Polling clearly shows that many Americans don’t trust the so-called “mainstream media.” But many leftists think the “mainstream media” are too conservative. Yet in spite of the huge trust deficit, the media still have an incredible ability to temporarily confuse millions of Americans.

For three plus years, virtually every story about Kamala Harris was how she was lazy, impossible to work for, historically unpopular, and needed to be dumped from the ticket. But as soon as Joe Biden stepped aside, the media made it seem like Harris walked on water.

In no time at all, she erased the polling deficit Democrats had under Biden. But as the weeks went by, that new polish began to wear off. Right now, the election appears to be nip and tuck, mostly because of what the media were able to do.

Here’s an example of how the biased media work.

Trump held a historic rally in Madison Square Garden. Hours before he spoke, some comedian makes a joke about Puerto Rico’s trash problem, which is a very real issue.

Immediately, the media cooperated with the Harris campaign to make it “a rally of hate” and a “Nazi rally” after a comedian made a joke about trash problems in Puerto Rico. But it may have moved enough voters in critical areas to make the difference.

Meanwhile, Harris held a rally in Milwaukee over the weekend featuring a performance by rapper GloRilla. She performed a profanity-laced song all about a woman having sex with other women’s boyfriends. But there’s not a word about that in the “mainstream media.”

This was a rally for young people and blacks. Is that song a sign of Harris’s support for “strong, intelligent women”? How does that song explain what black voters want?

Weeks ago, Harris was worried about black voter turnout. So, to attract more black support she proposed making drugs easier to get in America.
