Commentary: The Mainstream Media and Social Media Oligarchs Are to Blame for the D.C. Rioting

Admin

The Mainstream Media Are to blame for the D.C. rioting.

Towards that end, they escalated non-stories into major “news” and elevated non-entities into major public figures. As they did in 2014 with the tragic crash of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17, they contorted serious news into theater and abandoned their duties to investigate honestly and report dispassionately, fairly, and responsibly.

No New News: Mainstream Media and Democrats Recycle Arguments Against Mass Voter Fraud Allegations

Corinne Murdock

A current narrative dominating mainstream media and many top Democratic officials is the total absence of voter fraud.

The talking points in this election that argue against the possibility of voter fraud aren’t new, or even original. Especially in Virginia.
