There is no democracy without a free press. Right now, there is no democracy.

 

There is no democracy without a free press. That’s been echoed by many people. Here’s one view:

The purpose of a free press is to ensure that the people are free to receive and impart information that is not manipulated or serving a particular person, entity or interest. Its duty, in fact, is often to investigate people of power, and especially the government, to ask the hard questions and to attempt to uncover what’s really happening, regardless of the political fallout.

“not manipulated or serving a particular person.”

Today much of the press is manipulated in favor of a particular person- Joe Biden. Censorship by the left-wing media is very troublesome- it cost Donald Trump the 2020 election. Trump has been harassed and pursued by phony charges and accusations since 2015.If you pay attention to the media, you see that every accusation about Trump is true but every piece of evidence against Biden is false. Each time a credible piece of evidence against Biden appears, the DNC media  ignores it.

 

On Friday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight,” journalist Matt Taibbi stated that he believes there has been a lack of coverage of allegations of influence-peddling against President Joe Biden because “it happens to be politically inconvenient” and stated that it almost seems like members of the media “just get a memo to not cover stuff.”

Taibbi said, “I think a lot of journalists of an older generation feel the same way, which is, once upon a time, most reporters didn’t really care who was in office. If they were corrupt, if they did something wrong, we’d do the reporting. It didn’t really matter to us. The idea that you would non-report something like the Biden story because it happens to be politically inconvenient would have been inconceivable, I think, in the mainstream press, even a dozen years ago.”

The dog whistle gets blown

He added, “It appears that sometimes they just get a memo to not cover stuff. That happened with me with the Twitter files reports. Sometimes, we’d put something out, and it seemed clearly newsworthy, but everybody would react to it the same way, they would respond to it in the same language on Twitter, and I have no idea how that happens. It’s a mystery to me.”

Censorship of Donald Trump by the left-wing media is over the top, wrong and it is dangerous to freedom. And it’s getting worse.

But for some reason Biden’s chronic lies are acceptable

Let’s also remember what the wannabe dictator said:

He’s got the army of the left-wing media marching to that beat. A US President has had his primary political opponent arrested. It’s a sad day in the history of America.

And here’s the kicker in all this
