Column: When The Media's Resisting Isn't Rewarded
McKay Coppins of The Atlantic – a very partisan magazine – penned an article headlined “The Resistance’s Breakup With the Media Is At Hand.” He admitted “In the Trump era, many Washington reporters became resistance heroes, showered with book deals, TV contacts, and Twitter followers.” Journalists couldn’t be distinguished from protesters, and the fame and fortune was irresistible
Nets Give Cold Shoulder to Eco-Terrorist Attack on Aspen Gas Lines
Bias by omission was the theme Tuesday for ABC, CBS, and NBC. While they ignored a dubious Democratic campaign event in Georgia and liberal California releasing sex offenders, they also turned a blind eye to an attack in Aspen, Colorado by eco-terrorists who targeted natural gas lines in the area, and killed the heat to around 3,500 customers as temperatures dropped to near ZERO with a…
