Your source to mainline mainstream media misdeeds and malarky
Two stories dominated the week, and they led to significant amounts of distemper. The GOP presidential debate was Wednesday night but Trump dodged the event. Instead, he sat with Tucker Carlson for an interview that ran at the same time. But the night before, Trump hosted a dinner for a dozen prominent journalists. The people who vow to hate each other had steaks and shared talking points.
The other event was Trump's arraignment in Georgia, and the press could not contain themselves -- not that they tried anything approaching self-control. As the news nets were giddy over having a Trump mug shot, Jake Tapper tried to suggest they were acting professionally in delivering the facts. His own network defied his claims, with round-the-clock blanket coverage...of a photograph.
Now, crack one open and savor some mainstream media mayhem and malpractice.

It appears quite a few co-workers at the Nick Sandman Settlement Channel are rather giddy over the Trump mugshot after all.
Yes, how DARE Laura Ingraham suggest CNN would be vibrating with excitement over the arrival of this image!!
