Your source to mainline mainstream media misdeeds and malarky.
There has been much to note in a busy week of journalism jocularity. We start with Mehdi Hasan getting testy over Marjory Taylor Greene daring to insult the cleanliness of New York City. He makes the claim that no Democrat would dream of doing this sort of thing; he claims the party tossing “racism” and “fascism” at anyone is too decent to behave like that. Small matter: a Democrat is doing that exact thing at this exact moment.
Next, we have Jane Pauley interviewing John Fetterman and making a proposal for his future that is oblivious about his past, and then John Harwood is up to his usual low level of commentary. Meanwhile, in Florida, a pair of melodramatic occurrences have the statewide press up to their usual slanted dysfunction. Then we close out with NPR being roasted by Elon Musk, and their reaction is both intemperate and rather mirthful, with the boastful claims made.
Now, crack one open and savor some mainstream media misbehavior and malpractice.
LINKAGE PARK
- Mehdi Hasan cannot believe MTG insulted NYC, and he makes a fool of himself as he lectures.
- Jane Pauley believes a man who barely campaigned, and has yet to actually work in the Senate, is presidential.
- After years of squealing about the Jan. 6 riot, John Harwood is in full support of the same action in Tennessee.
- The infamous Rebekah Jones has a family development, and the press mistakenly takes her at her word.
- Nikki Fried gets arrested but since the press is there for dramatic photos, they don’t look into the details.
- Elon Musk trolls NPR, and their reaction exposes the network to more ridicule.
