Call it the liberal media “one word” game. All it takes is one word – one word ever so subtly and carefully placed in a news story. And with that the liberal media sets the liberal narrative about the topic of the moment.
…
Here’s the liberal media word game at work, this time over in The Hill. The headline: “Manchin says reconciliation bill must include controversial Hyde Amendment”
Note the word game at play: The Hyde Amendment, four and a half decades on the books, passed overwhelmingly, is suddenly labeled “controversial.” All manner of conservative critics called out the game.

Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election was a traumatic event for many women, especially the white ones with college educations, lucrative professional careers, and an unhealthy obsession with politics that fills a gaping void in their lives by reinforcing their feelings of moral supremacy over their fellow Americans.
Women like Jennifer Rubin, the prolific social media user and Washington Post opinion columnist who once accused former president Barack Obama of having more sympathy for “the Muslim World” than for his fellow Americans, but has since reinvented herself as “one of the most reliable defenders of the Biden administration,” according to Politico.

Recall the blockbuster New York Post story in the end run up to the 2020 election? The major scoop that Hunter Biden had left a laptop at a repair shop – and the repairman found all kind of illicit doings (and pictures!) on the computer?
The story was not only hotly denied by the Biden campaign and — falsely — assailed as part of a Russian disinformation campaign, it was suppressed by its Big Tech allies and ignored by the Democrat’s liberal media buddies.
Now comes Politico, of all places, to confess that…well, um, ahhh…ok, yes. The Post story was in fact true. An amused Post editorial headlined: “The Hunter Biden laptop is confirmed?! Color us shocked!”

It’s been nearly a week since a former field organizer for the Washington State Democrats was found guilty of terrorist attacks and violence against a railroad carrier; and so far, the liberal TV networks have not given the story a solitary second of airtime.
In December of 2020, antifa “activists” Samantha Frances Brooks and Ellen Brennan Reiche were indicted on terror charges after placing disrupting cables (or shunts) on train tracks near Bellingham, Washington. This caused a train carrying hazardous materials to decouple from some of its cars, which, according to authorities, could have led to a dangerous derailment in a residential area.
Yet despite the media’s professed interest in domestic terrorism stories, they refuse to give this one any coverage whatsoever. None of the liberal cable (CNN, MSNBC) or broadcast (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks have breathed so much as a word about this story as of September 14.

It was seven years ago that Rolling Stone magazine ran the 9,000-word cover story on an alleged rape at the University of Virginia that turned out to be a complete hoax. (File it next to Dan Rather’s Texas Air National Guard story.)
Well, it looks like Rolling Stone has done it again. I don’t know what’s up with the controversy over the use of ivermectin, normally a drug treatment for de-worming horses, as a COVID treatment, but Rolling Stone has a long piece up claiming that an Oklahoma hospital is having to treat large numbers of ivermectin overdoses, and denying hospital beds for patients with other medical needs.
There’s only one problem with the story: It is almost certainly fake news.

It isn’t easy to assemble the entire Squad in one place, but reportedly it happened today in Minneapolis. The Squad held a press conference to demand that President Biden revoke the permit to construct Enbridge Energy’s Line 3 replacement pipeline. As usual, the activists’ claims are hysterical.
…
One of the ironies here is that Line 3 will replace an existing pipeline. It incorporates modern anti-leak technologies and will be much better for the environment than the existing line. Nonetheless, Congresswoman Omar deems the pipeline a threat to wild rice.

Reporters like to imagine themselves as the nation’s most powerful defenders of democracy, and on occasion, project themselves as enforcers of political civility. If all that were true, then they might report critically on violent extremists of any ideological stripe, who find their joy in bringing anarchy and disorder. Sadly, some violent extremists are more celebrated than scorned.
On August 25, Reuters investigative journalist Aram Roston profiled Nicole Armbruster, a self-proclaimed “anti-fascist” who is putting her “body on the line” against fascism and racism. They call this “rare insight” into this movement, but instead, it’s just letting a violent radical activist explain herself.

A program that pays farmers not to farm isn’t saving the planet (Politico) If the government would quit subsidizing food prices, the price would drop to where half of the people now farming couldn’t afford it and would have to do something else, thereby producing the same effect as paying people not to farm. Most government programs are merely expensive (to the taxpayer) ways of trying to fix the bad effects of earlier stupid government programs.

Just a reminder: all talk of any insurrection, any danger to the Republic, any danger to life and limb during the mostly peaceful protest on January 6th is a hoax, brought to you by the same folks who brought you the 2020 Election Hoax, Russian Collusion Hoax, the First Impeachment Hoax, the Second Impeachment Hoax, the “Fine People” Hoax, the “No Wu Han Lab” Hoax, the Lafayette Park Gas Hoax, the George Floyd Hoax, the Jussie Smollett Hoax, the Covington Catholic Kids Hoax, the Trayvon Martin Hoax, countless variations on the Systemic Racism Hoax, not to mention the Global Warming Hoax, the Silent Spring Hoax, the Kinsey Report Hoax. It is an unbroken pattern going all the way back to Walter Winchell reporting that there is no famine in Ukraine.
