Why did BS stories like the John Kerry swiftboating and Obama birtherism get into major media? Because news bosses wanted to show their “fairness.” I know this because I edited the Chicago Tribune’s first story on Obama’s birth certificate. We didn’t want to touch it. The higher-ups made us. 9/10 🧵

The ones that seem inadequately redacted include a lot of administration bedfellows. I'm thinking it might have been intentional since leadership lacks the credentials to oversee correctly. Oopsies

The Ellison’s with Bari are already doing a wonderful job of it at 60 minutes. bsky.app/profile/reic...
Bari Weiss spiked the CECOT story because she wanted to have Stephen Miller included and demanded to control the language 60 Minutes used to describe the men who were brutally tortured after being sent to El Salvador without due process.

It's because modern media is run by billionaires, driven by clicks and profits, and no longer motivated by finding the truth. We all know Trump is a liar, but amplifying his nonsense makes more money than being critical of it.

I sympathize with every agent trying to clean up this country, who are forced to ignore real criminals in this administration and focus on imaginary Antifa. Meanwhile, Mob boss Trump pardons offenders whom his own DOJ successfully prosecuted.
