Corrupt media's failed smears on Trump cabinet picks shows its poltiical bias | Eastern NC Now

An MSM media whose election coverage was heavily tilted to the Democrats to the point they were more propagandists than  journalists, has now made themselves even more irrelevent by a mean spirited and partisan smear campaign against Trump's cainet picks.  This is the same media which did not dare look into some of the screwball cabinet and sub-cabinet picks of Joe Biden.

OFten they will allow a lower level quasi-media outlet do the initial smear before the MSM jumps in.  That was all set up recently for a new smear on incoming Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.  The leftist site "Pro Publica" was poised to do a hit piece, in collusion with woke West Point officials against Hegseth claiming he was lying about being admitted to West Point.  That blew up in their faces when Hegseth got wind of what was afoot and premempted them by releasing his acceptance letter from West Point, something the schemers probably never anticipated he would have kept.

As our media keeps playing partisan politics, they make themselves even more irrelevant. Polls now show they are less trusted than even Congress.

Joe Concha has an excellent opinion piece in the New York Post on the sad state of affairs in the American media:

Fortunately, the public is tuning out the MSM.  In the latest ratings, CNN was beaten by . . . wait for it . . . the Food Network.
