i just… i cannot even mentally wrap my head around how profoundly bad the media coverage of the dc situation is
like if it was a crisis in a media market where reporters are parachuting in that’s one thing
but these journalists are walking by troops and agents every day now
…crickets
It just proves how apathetic we've become. Our society is so rich & overindulged that there's very little fight left in our bellies. Trump is steamrolling the Constitution & a large % of us shrug. The media spends 5 minutes highlighting one horror then moves on to the next horror. Death by 1000 cuts
They're waiting for some bodies in the street.
Infested with CIA and other 3 letter agency pigs, corporate media is just the propaganda arm for the state.
😢...😡...The press is owned by the GOP so they won't do any sort of truth telling...
Wait until they start getting arrested and jailed and the expected uproar doesn’t occur because they helped kill any apparatus or trust in the media. It’s like none of them have read a history book
Seems to be simply a matter of the executives who run these companies like Republican policies and want Republicans in charge. They love corporate welfare and tax cuts for the rich. So they operate their companies accordingly. If they liked Democrats’ policies, the news coverage would be different.
Yes: I have a blast coming tomorrow on that: The Media was compliant with the NAZIs of old... and are again being Compliant with the NAZI's of Now... we need tell them to stop... just click to expand each color for easier reading
One of the things Trump and Miller fail to mention - DC has more law enforcement agencies than any other city, dozens! Metro, Park Police, Transit, Treasury, SCOTUS, Housing, Amtrak, Capital, State Dept to name a few. They don't need troops to add to the confusion! Just an EPSTEIN DIVERSION!
That’s what happens when everyone wanted “free” news. We lost local journalism.
All of the reporters and so called journalists always looking for that one story that puts them over or on top to win that "Pulitzer". It is staring them in the face and they are too stupid or afraid to write it. Choose a different day job.
state media too chickenshit to report the truth
I feel perhaps you should look harder. They are triangulating but reporting a great deal.
Yes. Agreed.
And the media sane-washing Trump is a huge portion of how we got here. It seems to me that what you rightly outline here is also them leaning into what they did to usher us towards this point from the start.
They’re not journalists. They’re employees of a politically captured company whose job it is to manufacture consent. They’re just collecting a paycheck.
They are Joseph Goebbels’ wet dream
Like I lived in DC (and live in LA now) and I just…I don’t get it. I went to GW and they seem to have not made much of a statement about a fascist occupation??? What’re we doing???
there are a handful of people doing their best and they should be commended
i am not going to tag them but rest assured the martin austermuhles of the world are not who this post is about
this is about the dc media elite, the people who go on tv, who work in congress & agencies
The radio silence and sanewashing has been bonechilling.
I kind of always believed that there would be a big moment where everyone came to their senses just like the climax of a movie. But it’s just silent and I find out about new nightmares from discord friends reposting tweets.
This Canuck is watching this shit and wondering when does he attack us. Motherfucker and his handlers are out of control.
The same fuck who wouldn't call in the guard to protect those officers on the 6th has now called them in for this fascist shit show? Too damn much.
They’re worthless. It’s been humiliating.
Look beyond the reporters. It's endemic in the 'C suite' across the board.
In LA there was the fact that troops were hidden away at a half dozen buildings across a giant city. The density of dc and visibility of feds is a different story
I'll just leave this here...
They know that getting fired isn't the worst that can happen to them. They could get sent to El Salvador, or a Concentration Camp.
Because they know most of their publishers are wildly pro Trump and all that they care about is their jobs.
All the news and media companies have completely caved and bent the knee. It's sad and disgusting.
There are dozens of articles spanning the last week from msm and independent journalists if you search it. What exactly is it thats missing from the articles? You just so the rest of us know?
They have normalized it.
Well-said. Insanity has been normalized.
Or they are normalizing it. Which is worse in my opinion.

The media has failed their country
Well trumps scared
Excellent point…sane-washing nightmare.
i have a bitter theory that most international + national + political reporters are underskilled at reporting on local events.
hitting the pavement is a very different skill than parachuting, handshaking & analysis 🫠
Makes you wonder whose side the news media is on. 🤔
THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED
Direct Current? Data Centres?
They are so afraid of Trump.
You're waking up to a truth the rest of us have been screaming about for the last decade:
The media is the enemy of the people.
CNN, MSNBC, WaPo, The Hill, WSJ, NYT, AJC, Fox, OAN: all of the major media outlets are owned and controlled by Trump-loving vermin. None of it is legit anymore.
They aren’t journalists. The true journalists are putting their bodies on the line. Those people you call journalists are cowards
Bought. Scared. Or both. But never ignorant of their choices.
The rest of the world was shocked months ago by your media. Now, they’re walking away. Trump though with Alaska - that’s the craziest display anyone’s ever seen. Ever. No historical reference compares. Most of the entire EU leadership is going to the US because Trump’s completely sh*t the bed.
