book confirms Trump marriage is complete joke.

why hasn’t that been a 5-yr story?

Trump’s going to run in 2024, his wife hates his guts and only shows up for $$$ and **this isn’t huge political story**? nytimes.com/2021/09/28/us/…
NYT once interviewed 50 (!!) people for a news story abt state of Clinton marriage, after they left the WH
different media rules for Dems
oh snd the person who interviewed 50 people abt Clinton marriage has since been promoted to politics editor at NYT

so that’s how that game is played

NYT reporter was pushing idea that Biden is just like Trump

you can’t make this stuff up
it’s all part of continued efforts to normalize Trump for his 2024 run, which NYT reporters are salivating over

the @AP is broken

Americans favor mandate by **nearly 20 pts** so AP spins it as “deep divide”; apnews.com/article/corona…
first person quoted in story is Republican voter who opposes mandates even tho, according to poll, they represent just 34% of country
why the “divide”? bc GOP’s don’t like the mandate. (Dems and independents do)

so in eyes of AP, the radical minority (34%} is just as important as the overwhelming majority

North Korea-level propaganda

Dear Leader must not be angered; pressrun.media/p/how-the-ariz…
“Fox News didn’t even try to spin the Arizona results, which confirmed Biden’s victory again. Instead, the network made a wholesale decision not to cover a story which the network *had covered all year long*.”

the press plays nice w/ radical obstructionists; pressrun.media/p/headlines-yo…
“Starting from the assumption that of course the party out of power is in favor of creating a financial collapse, the press continues to normalize radical, internal attacks on U.S. security.”
“News outlets prefer to dance around the disturbing truth by spreading the blame around and claiming the looming debt crisis is simply “legislative gamesmanship,” as the New York Times recently stressed.”

my latest—this ain’t “vaccine hesitancy”; pressrun.media/p/media-ignore…
“Millions of conservative Americans are being brainwashed about the pandemic, and thousands are killing themselves in the process. Yet the media downplay the huge story, framing it simply as “vaccine hesitancy.””
“the press shies away, nervous about offending conservatives by portraying them as mindless zombies being easily duped about a miraculously safe and effective vaccine

Instead of calling them out, the press coddles them depicting them as “vaccine hesitant” and “vaccine skeptics”
