You may all the time inform when a leftist media outlet doesn’t like a narrative angle. They’ll cry “no proof,” and also you wish to ask them if they really spent any time trying to find proof. It’s their means of suggesting the story is simply too disreputable to pursue, like Hunter Biden’s laptop computer.
On the PBS Information Hour on Might 19, the time period was “unfounded.” Republicans are “pouncing” on the information that Joe Biden has an aggressive case of prostate most cancers. PBS anchor Amna Nawaz lamented: “Donald Trump Jr. has posted on-line, claiming that the prognosis right here was a part of a wider cover-up round Mr. Biden’s well being. He is additionally repeating unfounded claims that Biden clearly had dementia.”
Right here’s what the president’s son tweeted: “The Dem-Media is making an attempt to cowl up the coverup over Biden’s failing well being — Which was apparent to anybody with a functioning mind — As a result of they understand it implicates all of them.”
It’s not “unfounded” to say that the media cooperated in shaming and suppressing on Biden’s cognitive decline.
The web headline for Amna’s lament centered on the tip of the Monday evening pundit phase, which centered on Trump: “Tamara Keith and Amy Walter on the battle over Trump’s ‘large, lovely invoice’.” It appears to be like like they couldn’t “wreck” the house web page with Biden skepticism within the headline.
The U-word was repeated. NPR White Home correspondent Tamara Keith added: “President Trump himself has now additionally made unfounded claims about how President Biden will need to have recognized that he had most cancers lengthy earlier than this was made public.”
Nawaz and Keith made no time for Democrat Dr. Zeke Emanuel’s feedback on MSNBC’s Morning Joe that the superior stage of Biden’s most cancers strongly means that he had most cancers all through his presidency. Are MSNBC and the Democrat physician responsible of “unfounded claims”? Why can’t they spend 24 hours trying into this story earlier than making knee-jerk denunciations?
NPR’s homepage supplied an identical headline: “Trump suggests with out proof that Biden delayed sharing his most cancers prognosis.” The story started: “President Trump instructed with out proof on Monday that former President Joe Biden had delayed sharing his prostate most cancers prognosis.”
PBS and NPR would by no means air tales suggesting “Joe Biden/Kamala Harris instructed with out proof that Donald Trump is a fascist.” Or within the present second, they didn’t report “Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz made the unfounded cost that ICE brokers are ‘Trump’s modern-day Gestapo.’”
As a substitute, when Harris agreed on Charlamagne Tha God’s radio present final October that Trump is a fascist, PBS introduced on Trump-despising professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat for a narrative headlined “Trump ramps up his harmful political rhetoric in remaining weeks of marketing campaign.”
It’s apparently not “harmful” to match Trump to fascist dictators after two assassination makes an attempt.
In that story, PBS reporter Laura Barron-Lopez even platformed Harris attacking Trump for a scarcity of transparency! Harris mentioned: “He refuses to launch his medical data. I’ve achieved it. Each different presidential — each different presidential candidate within the trendy period has achieved it. He’s unwilling to do a 60 Minutes interview, like each different main celebration candidate has achieved for greater than half-a-century.”
After Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre agreed two weeks later that Biden noticed Trump as a fascist, PBS introduced on Ben-Ghiat once more for a phase headlined “How Trump’s rhetoric compares to historic fascist language.” Within the liberal bubble of “public broadcasting,” this smear is rarely “unfounded.” Again and again with Trump, it sounds just like the “PBS Pounce Hour.”
The notion that Trump-supporting taxpayers have to show over their hard-earned cash for these transparently partisan “public media” retailers by no means stops being an outrage.
