Steve Sailer peers into the swamp.
Reading all these NYT opeds by black women about how there’s very little validation available in the media for black women, I’m reminded of anorexia, a psychological disorder where women stare in the mirror at their 80 pound bodies and see only fatness. Similarly, a lot of black women are convinced that the media are out to promote whiteness.

The most obvious velleities of the major mainstream media today are, first, a hatred of Fox News, and second, a primal scream at the fact that over the last 25 years old fashioned print and broadcast media have shrunk more than coal mining.

The New York Times posted a preposterous headline over Paul Krugman’s latest column: “Bernie Sanders Isn’t a Socialist.” But he describes himself as a socialist. Our own Dan Gainor underlined the humor of this sentence with this joke on Twitter: “Paul Krugman isn’t a columnist.” Krugman admits Bernie identifies as a socialist, but he claims socialists really mean they’re social democrats, so don’t smear them with the S-word.

Radical ESPN Senior Writer Howard Bryant has released another book of political essays indicting American sports as overtly political, one where African Americans must navigate a sharp edge of whiteness. Released late last month, Full Dissidence: Notes From An Uneven Playing Field follows Bryant’s 2019 book, The Heritage: Black Athletes, a Divided America, and the Politics of Patriotism, by a year.
Not surprisingly, Bryant’s latest race-baiting condemnation of American sports is attracting attention from media who speak his left-wing language. NPR, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes and The Nation magazine all gave the book fawning attention.

The New York Times published a rather shocking article for Saturday’s newspaper. Online, the headline was an attention-grabber:
Black Workers’ Wages Are Finally Rising
Their pay is increasing after a decade of stagnation. One man’s story shows the hope — and limitations — with that shift.
Wait. So black workers’ wages stagnated….all through the Obama presidency. This is a rather stunning headline. This is NOT the headline that made the Saturday paper, published on page B-1. Instead, it was “He’s Gained A Foothold, But Worries About Falling.”

One of my more random predictions was that Trump and the new leftist president of Mexico, AMLO, were going to get along constructively. So far, they are, and it’s driving Conquistador-American Spanish language newscaster Jorge Ramos crazy.

Sen. Mitt Romney was the sole Republican to vote to impeach Donald Trump, and the New York Times front page on Thursday demonstrated its strange new respect for the Utah Republican — the same candidate it spent 2012 vilifying for standing between Barack Obama and a second term — in Mark Leibovich’s “An Act of Defiance Against a Party He’d Personified.” A text box on the jump page cast Romney as making a brave stand: “Recognizing that breaking ranks may bring ‘unimaginable’ consequences.”

Steve Sailer keeps you up with the latest fashions.
It’s almost as if it’s fashionable to racistly insult whites for being white these days.
From ‘robber barons’ to ‘black market’ to ‘price gouging’, the first step in a hate campaign is to think up a catchy smear-name for the target. If academics pick it up and embed it in the culture, so much the better.

Scott Johnson at Power Line connects the dots.
The New York Times is nothing if not predictable. In the age of Trump, it has become even more so. Having pioneered the “strange new respect” profile genre — i.e., the laudatory profiles of Republicans or conservatives who “get above their raisin’” to join the sanctified line of the Democratic Party — the Times owed Romney, and the Times has now delivered.

The nonstop campaign by bought politicians, owned news outlets, and manipulated social media platforms to control the dominant narratives about what’s going on in the world contribute vastly more to the sickness of our society than government secrecy does. We know this from experience: any time a whistleblower exposes secret information about the malfeasance of powerful governments like NSA surveillance or Collateral Murder, we see not public accountability, nor demands for sweeping systemic changes to prevent such malfeasance from reoccurring, but a bunch of narrative management from the political/media class.
