New Year Reflections, Part III (The Corrupt Mainstream Media)

Make no mistake, the Democrat-Mainstream Media Complex (D-MSMC) is corrupt.  Not just biased, but corrupt.  Following former President Trump's historic win in the Iowa caucuses, Rachel Maddow explained why MSNBC would not air Trump's victory speech.  "We will let you know if there is any news made in that speech, if there is anything noteworthy, something substantive and important."

Maddow:  "The reason I'm saying this is, of course, there is a reason that we and other news organizations have generally stopped giving an unfiltered, live platform to remarks by former President Trump.  It is not out of spite, it is not a decision that we relish, it is a decision that we'll regularly revisit.  And honestly, earnestly, it is not an easy decision."

But there is a cost to us, as a news organization, of knowingly broadcasting untrue things.  That is a fundamental truth of our business and who we are.  And so, his remarks, tonight, will not air live here, we will monitor them and let you know about any news that he makes."  

Well isn't that special.  Here is the truth, however.  The D-MSMC wants Biden to win, regardless of the cost to their journalistic integrity.  And they will do their best to make sure that Biden does win.  They certainly do not want their viewers to see a man, only a few years younger than Biden, able to speak extemporaneously, unlike the presumed Democrat candidate.  And just how elitist are these people, telling the American people that they do not need to hear the words of the likely Republican nominee for President of the United States.  You also have to wonder how Maddow was able to say with a straight face that they do not want to broadcast "untrue things."  Here is the short reply I would give to Maddow:  Russian collusion hoax, which you repeated over and over again.

Should Biden and Trump end up being their party's nominees, and in the unlikely event Biden agrees to a debate, I have a recommendation for the D-MSMC.  When Biden is speaking, air all of his remarks.  When Trump speaks, mute his comments and put up on the screen "we will let you if the former President says anything newsworthy."  Ridiculous?  Of course.  Yet that is exactly what MSNBC just did.

Not surprisingly, CNN joined in.  Here was Jake Tapper:  "A relatively subdued speech as the(se) things go so far.  Although, here he is, right under my voice."  Under my voice?  Why are you talking over him?  Here is one excuse why people should not be allowed to hear Trump.  "You can hear him repeating his anti-immigrant rhetoric."  What???

The American people view the open border and illegal immigration as the biggest issue facing the country.  Big city mayors across the country - Democrats - are complaining about the flood of illegal immigrants.  Here is Trump's so-called anti-immigrant rhetoric:  "W are going to seal up the border.  Because right now, we have an invasion.  We have an invasion of millions and millions of people that are coming into our country.  I can't imagine why they think that's a good thing."

So, Trump is saying he is against illegal immigration, not all immigration.  But the corrupt D-MSMC never makes that distinction when talking about Republicans.  Trump said it's an "invasion."  Well, what the hell else would you call it when as many as 10 million people have entered the country illegally during Biden's first three years in office.  Anybody need a better example of why I refer to most of the media as the Democrat-Mainstream Media Complex?
