Kamala Harris Can't Avoid the Media Forever

The American legacy media is, let's be honest, doing everything they can to prop up Kamala Harris. That's nothing new; they did it for Joe Biden in 2020, and they did it for Her Imperial Majesty Hillary I, Dowager-Empress of Chappaqua, in 2016. They did it for Barack Obama twice. There is no pretense of objectivity. 'Twas ever thus; back in the days of the big three broadcast networks, those networks were also unashamedly Democratic.

Even back in those pre-Internet days, I had one goofball defend the leftist slant in the network news by claiming "reality leans left," which is pure corral litter

Nowadays, of course, there are alternatives. You're reading one of them. That has changed the news business so that there is no political candidate who can be assured they won't ever face a hostile - or even uncomfortable - question. One of the results of this is that Kamala Harris, in the month since the Democratic Party tossed old Joe Biden under the bus, has not taken even one unscripted question from any media member, anywhere.

She can't keep doing that forever - or can she? The editors of the Free Press write in a new editorial:

But with all the kumbaya—despite fears of a 1968 reprise, the Dems have put on a mostly drama-free show in Chicago—Harris has avoided saying a single substantive thing, either about her record as vice president or the kind of policies she hopes to enact if she is elected. Her speeches have been heavy on the rhetoric and light on the substance. Most notable of all is that she has yet to give either a press conference or an interview—not even for a hagiographic profile in Time magazine.
What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

She's afraid - and her handlers are afraid - of having to answer an unscripted question. The Free Press has some speculation as to why that might be.

The reasons for Harris’s evasion of the press are her own, but we think she has two chief motivations. First, she understands that without having to answer tough questions, she never has to worry about straying from her message. The second is that Harris doesn’t want to answer direct questions about her record—and her plans for the future—because both are lacking.

Both of those are true, there can be little doubt of that. But there's another reason, and it's one that, even more than the others, should remove Kamala Harris from any serious consideration for any elected office: She's incompetent.

Kamala Harris is incompetent, and honestly, she's not very bright. Her career has been a textbook example of failing upwards. But as for how long she can avoid the press? If it's just the legacy media, then that's easy to answer: "Forever." Oh, there have been some mild questions from media members concerning themselves with appearances, asking when Kamala Harris will be having a news conference - but I think we all know that they won't push the issue. The legacy media will run cover for Harris and her running mate Tim Walz as long as possible.

The Harris/Walz campaign has not posted one policy position on its campaign website. Kamala Harris has made one speech outlining an economic policy that could have been lifted from the pages of "Das Kapital." And if Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and the legacy media have their way, that's how it will stay. Kamala Harris is poorly informed, arrogant, and not very bright - and the legacy media are running cover. That is why it's on all of us to stay informed, and that makes upgrading to a VIP account all the more important.
