Your source to mainline a year's worth of mainstream media misdeeds and malarkey.
With so much breaking this week, we had to cut a new episode on the quick!
Well, the media landscape exploded on Friday, as the activist/journalist Don Lemon was arrested in Los Angeles and charged by the DOJ. Lemon was in town to cover the Grammy Awards but was taken into custody in the early morning hours.
Lemon had previously taunted Attorney General Pam Bondi, saying she should come and get him, apparently operating as if he was above the law. This is despite the insistence from Democrats and journalists that the opposite is true.
What has been revealing about this is not the opposition to the arrest (that had been expected), but the level of denial in the press over the details of his case. The ones insisting he was only in that church acting as a journalist ignore all of his video that was filmed beforehand, and his cheering on the accomplishment after the fact. It is comically inept on their part.
Along with the Lemon melodrama is an update from CBS News, where Bari Weiss has discussed that there will be job cuts in the news division. There is a curious, new wrinkle to this, however, showing that these are not cost-cutting layoffs.
Now, crack one open and savor some outmoded media malpractice and misinformation.

Lemon is arrested, along with others, as AG Pam Bondi makes the announcement.
The press avoids facts in jumping right into this being an “attack” on journalism and the First Amendment.
In the mad rush to say Trump overstepped with Lemon, they choose to ignore a core reality: The warrant was handed down by a Minneapolis grand jury. The indictment lays out the charges and why Lemon was allegedly implicated.
As we detailed earlier, Don Lemon appears to have been an active participant in this mob attack on the church.
Don let his “journalism” mask slip repeatedly when describing what was planned and would place, repeatedly using “we” in his descriptions.
