I Got Them Lügenpresse Blues
Former Reporters for Politico Claim Outlet Squashed Negative Stories About the Bidens [More]
Pointing out Nazi origins in an attempt to stop being called what they are doesn’t work with those not afraid to call a national socialist a national socialist. Besides, Democrats lying about the Second Amendment use Nazi terminology all the time.
That, and I don’t think they’ll like my alternative any better…

The ‘Convicts’ Tar Vanishes
US newspapers are deleting old crime stories, offering subjects a ‘clean slate’ [More]
So now it’s the job of “Authorized Journalists” to suppress relevant information. My “For ‘progressives,’ every day is Opposite Day” adage just keeps proving itself.
That’s one way for authorities to absolve themselves of the predictable results of catch-and-release.
This is CNN
CNN Tries and Fails – Again – to Make Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law Controversial [More]
So a 42-year-old with a violent criminal history threatens an armed 79-year-old with a chainsaw, who responds appropriately, and that’s reason to disparage”Stand Y0ur Ground”?
The only thing controversial is why anyone still watches CNN.

‘Fact Checker’ Meltdown
Doltish reporters Rebecca Shabad and Ryan J. Reilly breathlessly reported that “Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., falsely claimed in a lengthy post on X this morning that ‘thousands of peaceful grandmothers’ gathered Jan. 6, 2021, to take a tour of the U.S. Capitol building and that people peacefully explored the building.” They go on and on about “false” and “untrue” claims in Collins’ post, including some assertions that aren’t false. [More]
Doltish is right. I remember Ryan J. Reilly freaking out over “rubber bullets” that earned him his own special Fauxtoshop that seemed so appropriate…

Mexican Standoff
60 Minutes Gets Dragged on Twitter/X Over Story Praising Gun Control Policies in Mexico [More]
To paraphrase Rhett Butler, they should be dragged and often, and by someone who knows how.
They had a chance to sustain real journalism about guns and Mexico with Sharyl Attkisson, but instead decided that didn’t fit the approved narrative. They could’a been contenders instead of DSM bums, which is what they are, let’s face it.

An ‘A’ in My Book
Kansas gets an F in gun legislation, national report says [More]
So, how many of the killers of those 500 people were inclined to obey existing laws, and which proposed new ones would have made them reconsider?

Into the Grey Zone
There aren’t just democracies and dictatorships. There are many countries occupying a grey zone, where elections happen but harassment of the press and the opposition allows the regime to keep a vice grip on power. You can’t help but think that’s where Trump wants to take us. [Watch]

Call Roto-Reuters, That’s the Name
The Biden Admin paid Reuters over $300 million in government contracts. 11 different Biden government agencies targeted Elon’s businesses. All 11 agencies paid millions to Reuters. Reuters then won the Pulitzer Prize for “their work on Elon Musk and misconduct at his businesses” [More]
I always put as much faith in their fidelity as I did in Roxanne Pulitzer’s:
So far Pulitzer or his witnesses have testified that Roxanne, 31, went to bed with a local real estate salesman, a French baker, a Belgian race-car driver, the beautiful young wife of a handsome old Kleenex heir, an alleged drug dealer and a supernatural trumpet. That’s right, trumpet. There are charges of drug use. And menages a trois. And incest. And death threats.
But what does #justablogger know, except that we just don’t hate the media enough?

Axios Head Exemplifies Media Denial of Its Own Part in Public’s Rejection

The meme is true. We don’t hate “the media” enough.
The Authorized Journalist Protection Act
Dubbed “Protect Reporters from Exploitative State Spying Act,” the broadly supported bill would ensure federal protection for journalists. It would prevent authorities from abusing subpoena powers and protect reporters from being forced to reveal their sources. [More]
I know what it’s like to live with that fear hanging over my head, so I guess my biggest question is will us “just a bloggers” have the same expectation of protection or will we have to prove ourselves eligible under the presumption that we are not?

Think of It as Plague Insurance
“Mr. Labarge’s terror campaign sent ripples of fear throughout the journalism community and violated the bedrock principles enshrined in the Bill of Rights. Our office remains steadfast in our commitment to safeguarding the rights of journalists to report without fear of retribution and to put behind bars those who try to silence the media through threats and violence,” Levy said. [More]
The DOJ suddenly finding it in its self-interest to virtue signal about the Bill of Rights notwithstanding, Levy knows the First Amendment is a restraint on government, and that’s reflected in the actual charges that didn’t mention it:
…conspiracy to commit stalking through interstate travel and using a facility of interstate commerce… conspiracy to commit stalking using a facility of interstate commerce… stalking using a facility of interstate commerce and aiding and abetting… stalking through interstate travel and aiding and abetting.
Sudden interest in rights is the DOJ careerists’ equivalent of painting lamb’s blood on the door frame so the wrath of Trump passes over them. I do wonder, though, if the same amount of energy would have been spent on “just a blogger” as on “real reporters.”
Still, it’s analagous to more ways a proactive AG could protect the Second Amendment from state and municpal infringements… if she was instructed to.

Nothing Short of a Media Revolution
The Mainstream Media is in the complete free fall we have been expecting for the last decade. With MSNBC and CNN both losing 50% of their viewership (this time last year vs now), we are about to see MAJOR changes in the media landscape worldwide. The propaganda machine is on its last leg. [More]
Mark Walters and I discussed this yesterday on Daily Defense.
In spite of everything the multi-billion dollar DSM threw into creating the Kamala Harris illusion and propagandizing it 24-7, we small furry mammals ate the dinosaurs’ eggs.
#Justabloggers, and YouTubers, and social/alternative media pundits kicked the “real reporters'” @$$e$. A critical mass just isn’t buying the lies anymore, and I don’t see any way they can get that back.
They made a big collective miscalculation and they lost.

It’s an attractive thought but the Deep State relying on it and its search engines burying alternative sources won’t give up so easily. And 50% of the population, by definition, is still 50% dumber than the other half, with the 30% above that still nothing to write home about.
Now look for the era of GIGO AI “fact checkers.”
