Fake media fight back armed with hypocrisy

The new narrative among the mainstream fake news media is that President Donald Trump's war on the media is making it dangerous to be a journalist. Atlantic Editor in Chief Jeffrey Goldberg said he was concerned that there are people in the country that listen to the president repeating "that the reporters, journalists, are enemies of the state...and someone is going to do something violent against journalists in a large way, and then I know where the fault lies." This, however, is the atmosphere created by the leftist media in lying and slanting the news to a visceral level that prompted the assassination attack on conservative Congressmen. It's a bitter pill when they have to swallow their own medicine.

 

It's as if the entire leftist media got together and came up with the same talking points. CNN foreign correspondent Clarissa Ward opened a panel discussion saying that President Trump's "declaration of war on the media" emboldened people in war zones and made it more dangerous to be a journalist. Playboy White House correspondent (huh?) Brian Karem agreed and talked about journalists being jailed and killed. CNN political correspondent Chris Cillizza chimed in, saying, "I think it's already dangerous what the Trump Administration is doing...taking an honest mistake, or not even a mistake, and turn it into the norm." Making up stories to undermine the President is an honest mistake? Really?

 

Even the likes of Bob Woodward, the reporter who exposed the Watergate scandal, said the media, specifically the New York Times, was going overboard in its bias against President Trump. Woodward said in remarks after a film screening of "All the President's Men" in Washington, D.C., "Tone matters, and headlines matter, and you want people to trust you...I think a kind of brief, deeply fair-mindedness is essential." Yet, CNN, with its back against the wall, is coming out swinging, saying that President Trump is endangering reporters-and the left-leaning Atlantic, Playboy and CNN political correspondents agree. It's ok if they lie and twist the truth that results in violence against conservatives, but when the President, and quite frankly, the American people call them out with the truth, they cry like cowards.

 

Being a real journalist is not easy. In the quest to find the truth, enemies will be made. As an award-winning investigative journalist in the 1970s-80s, my job, my body, and my life were threatened for exposing the truth. It was part of the job and I didn't whine about it. I also didn't slant my stories or write lies to boost an agenda. These reporters are saying that the backlash against their reporting is a threat to the First Amendment. In reality, their biased, coup-promoting, violence-inciting reporting is the real threat to the entire Constitution. Psalm 93:16 asks, "Who will rise up for me against the evildoers?" It's not the evildoers, for sure-not the mainstream media. Only God is the refuge of the righteous. Those who do not have Jesus have no foundation for the truth. This includes these reporters, who claim to be guardians of the truth.

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
