The question we should all be asking is where has honest objective journalism gone? Has it been cremated or is it lying in a mass media grave where it has decomposed down to its bare bones?
It doesn’t matter whether it’s what we are viewing, hearing, or reading; 95 per cent of what we are fed is left-wing-biased diatribe. Why is that? Where do today’s so-called journalists get their bias from? Universities? Journalism schools? On the job indoctrination? It’s not hard to come up with the answer. All three.
What we have been witnessing for quite some time now is a global phenomenon amongst all forms of media where there is a compulsion to depict the Left always in a favourable light. It has become a habit with the media that this is done with scant regard for truth or objectivity. What is important is the narrative – THEIR narrative.
Politics, climate change or any number of other subjects which should be debated are not anymore because the media take a stance that they deem to be the right and only one, and if too many alternative views are expressed then the comments are terminated. This, of course, is the modus operandi of the Left. Rather than encourage debate, shut it down.
The obvious next step in this sequence brings us to free speech. Free speech is fine with the Left as long as they are the ones doing the speaking, which a dutiful and compliant media will lap up as if they’ve just been given Black Forest cake for dessert. I chose Black Forest cake because it comes from the Black Forest region of Germany which is renowned for its fairy tales, which a lot of the news is nowadays. There is a reservation, though;, I got the idea from CNN talking about the world’s best desserts, so it could very well be FAKE NEWS!
The irony in all of this, of course, is that it is the Left of the media (the vast majority) who are losing viewers, listeners and readers. CNN is a leading example and many others aren’t too far behind.
They need to wake up. Right-wing and conservative readers read the news too.
