Your source to mainline mainstream media misdeeds and misbehavior.
In today’s podcast, the press complex is all kinds of excited over the Dominion defamation case and some of the revelations that have emerged. The excitement is over the fact that the largely-reviled Fox News is coming under fire, but what is lost in the media cheerleading is that this is yet another broadside on the press that most news outlets are unbothered about and not criticizing. Then there are the facts of the case that are not exactly lining up as the excited journalists are insisting.
Apart from that, there has been a Brian Stelter sighting, and he was on yet another panel that was significantly lacking in self-awareness. Chuck Todd delivered an amusing segment on Meet The Press where he appears deeply confused that a politician was resorting to using politics, and then there are some fun and odd after-effects from the recent Academy Awards show.
Now crack one open and savor some mainstream media malarky and malpractice.
