You’ll notice that the same media who couldn’t stop attacking Biden’s age or Hillary’s emails to her daughter or President Obama’s tan suit are now okay with a convicted criminal bulldozing the White House for his ballroom and inviting actual murderers to the Oval Office.

  1. Seems about right to me that the guy who had Epstein murdered would enjoy hanging out with other murderers

  2. No American press, truly; the corporate ministry of propaganda. A virtual grandmum: "let's not trouble ourselves with such pain and sorrow. Would you like biscuit? George bought a shiny new car. It's grand! More tea, love?"

  6. Yes. I have, most certainly, noticed. We know who owns a vast majority of the media. We are witnessing Project 2025 in action.

  9. You're mischaracterizing. The mainstream media, for the most part, did not "attack" Obama's tan suit. They almost all agreed it was a non-issue.

Time

Time published a piece titled “Obama's Tan Suit: Shut Up and Talk Substance Over Style”. 
TIME

Their framing: the media was focusing too much on what he wore rather than what he said. They pushed back on the sartorial outrage as distracting and somewhat sexist in its intensity. 
TIME

Washington Post

The Post’s “Nation distracted … by president’s tan suit” covered how political Twitter exploded over the outfit. 
The Washington Post

They quoted Robin Givhan (fashion critic) defending the suit, calling the critique of anything but a dark suit “aesthetic heresy.”

Later retrospectives (e.g., on the 5‑year anniversary) noted how ridiculous some of the outrage seemed in hindsight.

Politifact

Ran a piece on the “audacity of taupe” pun, noting how much of the backlash was performative and fueled by social media. 
PolitiFact

Their analysis was more descriptive than moralistic: they reported on the reaction, but didn’t condemn Obama’s fashion choice per se.

ABC News

Covered the story under the headline about a “sartorial stir on social media.” 
ABC

Their tone: the suit choice grabbed more attention than the policy topics he was addressing, suggesting the wardrobe became the story.
