The media always tries to drum up ratings in February by pretending the frontrunner is in “trouble.” Joe Biden is the frontrunner, so he’s the designated target. It’s starting with today’s false report that Biden is in so much trouble, John Kerry is entering the race. Fake news.
To be clear, I don’t use the term “fake news” lightly. I almost never use it. But this is literally a fake story. Kerry is overheard explaining to a friend on the phone why he’s not going to enter the race, and NBC pretends Kerry was saying he’s considering running. Come on.
This is nothing new. When the media decided to get ratings from the “Hillary is in trouble” narrative in early 2016, it ran with fake stories about how John Kerry, Al Gore, and even Michael Dukakis were planning to enter the race to replaces Hillary.
Because Iowa and New Hampshire tend to produce very different results than what we’re likely to see in the rest of the primary states, February allows the media to get ratings by pretending the Iowa/NH winners is the new frontrunners, and that the actual frontrunner is in trouble
This is not to say that Biden is necessarily going to be the nominee, but he is the clear frontrunner. We won’t start to get meaningful results until South Carolina and Super Tuesday. In the meantime, the media is going to really screw with us to generate ratings. It always does.
This is complete horse crap palmerreport.com/analysis/john-…
And yes, when the mainstream media knowingly pushes a fake story for ratings, I’m going to call it out as fake.
If you give me grief for this, I’ll hit the “block” button on you, and only because there’s no “fuck you” button.
