And hey, speaking of damaged and corrupted news outlets, we just learned that Media Matters for America has laid off employees as it endures some financial hardship. More than a dozen crucial contributors and editors were suddenly let go. They blamed this on the Elon Musk lawsuit, crying that he has imposed hardships on the site and crying over the loss of jobs – after they attacked him directly in an attempt to chase away advertisers and cause jobs to be lost at Xitter. 

The press continues to try to make Justice Samuel Alito a compromised figure who needs to step down because of the flags he has flown on his properties. What makes these desperate claims of “obvious” controversy so inept is that the same press corps somehow managed to miss these issues for years.

Then we look at the Manhattan courthouse shenanigans surrounding the Trump trial and see more contradictory behavior, and then wrap it up with another trans individual the press wants to pretend does not exist as yet another violent outbreak is attempted to be reclassified.

 Now, crack one open and savor some mainstream media malpractice and misinformation.

LINKAGE PARK

• At Media Matters, the announcements were made that many of the staff had been laid off.

• People who dedicated themselves to putting right-of-center media out of work are whining that they have been laid off.

• Democrats made an appearance outside the Manhattan courthouse. It was a fiasco.

• The attempts by the press to make Samuel Alito’s choice of flags a disqualifying act are shameless and fake.

• ProPublica gets in on the flag-shaming and looks just as incompetent doing so.

• J-school professor is pushing outwardly for activist media.

• CBS News covers the news of a murder and random stabbings, but the attacker being a trans individual is conveniently downplayed.
