On Sunday, The New York Post<\/a> posted an article about the mainstream media’s reporting of the Twitter files that Elon Musk has been releasing. The mainstream media has pretty much chosen to ignore the story totally. When they actually report it, their reporting is not accurate.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Whatever happened to \u201cAll the news that\u2019s fit to print,\u201d and \u201cDemocracy dies in darkness,\u201d the respective mottos of the two most influential newspapers in the country, the New York Times and the Washington Post?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every morning, these august organs set the narrative for newsrooms across the country, and yet, time and again, we see them ignore stories that don\u2019t suit their own agenda <\/a>as propaganda purveyors for the Democratic Party and the security state.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This has been obvious in their non-coverage of Elon Musk\u2019s Twitter Files, four batches over 10 days so far, which have revealed a chilling censorship regime at the social media giant<\/a>, which no doubt is replicated across Big Tech, including at Facebook and Google.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We see evidence of what we long suspected, despite Twitter former CEO Jack Dorsey\u2019s lies to Congress<\/a>: Conservatives and medical professionals were silenced, as part of a crackdown on effective dissent against the government. From The Post\u2019s Hunter Biden laptop stories and criticism of the Biden administration\u2019s botched Afghanistan withdrawal to Dr. Anthony Fauci\u2019s bogus edicts on masks, lockdowns and the origins of COVID, censorship has been the order of the day. That should be a story of interest to journalists at the Times and WaPo.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article cites a few examples of how the information has been treated:<\/p>\n

Over at the Washington Post, resident disinformation expert Taylor Lorenz went on TV to falsely claim that Elon Musk had laid off the staff who monitored child sexual exploitation material. The opposite is the case. On taking over Twitter, Musk declared his \u201cpriority #1\u201d was to remove such material and, in two weeks, did more to cleanse Twitter of child abuse content than previous management had done in a decade.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The WaPo also reported that Musk was being investigated by San Francisco authorities<\/a> for creating makeshift bedrooms at Twitter HQ for employees to sleep in, which he denied.<\/strong>
\nIt was the same ignore-and-smear game across the leftie media-sphere.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOld news\u201d was how The Atlantic dismissed the Twitter Files.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please follow the link to read the entire article. It is discouraging to know that the people who depend on the mainstream media for their news are either uninformed or misinformed. Since China owns large portions of American media, profit is no longer a motive–loss of viewers or readers is not an issue, so the mainstream media is no longer subject to the rules of the marketplace. That is not a good thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
