Their bias is everywhere. Just connect the dots, if you dare.

Harold Watson “Trey” Gowdy III

“On balance the media is biased toward the left and also unfair on how it covers many things.”

– Trey Gowdy (R-SC)

You are familiar with the complaint. In one form or another, it is literally 55 years old. But in recent years, the accusations have become increasingly incendiary, as the bill of indictment grows to include such language as “radical leftist,” “Marxist,” “pedophilia-ridden,” “anti-Christian,” “Soros-backed,” “America-hating,” “out-of-touch” and “maybe just a little Jewier than I’m comfortable with.”

Why? Perhaps because the People are beginning at last to see how pervasive is the bias. Not just against, say, the public intellectuals populating the Freedom Caucus, but against anything that doesn’t conform to the progressive worldview. Such as fiscal conservatism and “voting” rights and school shootings and rape.

But until now, the case against the media has focused mainly on the obvious and radical bias against Conservatives, such as the Honorable Paul Gosar (R-Arizona) and former German Chancellor Adolf Hitler. Yet, until now, nobody has been courageous and visionary enough to survey the entire battlefield. To see the liberal media at work is to be shocked at the astonishing scope of the propaganda contaminating literally every subject they cover — all beneath the twin false flags of skepticism and oversight. And so here we document the hydra-headed monster of “reality” obsession, as their perverse and unpatriotic rationalist ideology has crept, like George Santos’s sweater vest, up the bulging midsection of the body politic.

Where to look to see this perversity? Anywhere and everywhere.

Weather. When a tropical depression begins to form in the south Atlantic, the cassandras of catastrophe begin to coalesce, insisting that we all clutch our pearls about the Eastern Seaboard and the Gulf of Mexico. Do the fancy network anchors head for Massachusetts, California or other hotbeds of antifa, BLM and Passover? No, these nattering nabobs of negativism flock to Red States and predict disaster. Who is issuing the orders, one wonders? And whither this oh-so-predictable anti-killer-cyclone agenda? Lots of blather about “storm surges” and “loss of life” and “property devastation,” yet the liberal media pays almost no attention to other disasters buffeting the country — such as critical thinking and unnecessary ATV regulation and avocado toast. No, the so-called journalists are actually atheists, who hate hurricanes because they are Acts of God. Hurricanes don’t kill people. Literature kills people. So why this anti-hurricane bias? Ask yourself: Who benefits?

Infection. The human body, too, is the miraculous handiwork of the Supreme Being. Whether respiration, or digestion, or immune response, or pouty duck lips, the divine engineering of human biology is an endless wonder. There are literally thousands of biological functions at work at any given moment. But what does the biased media pay attention to? HIV/AIDS, Covid 19, Ebola, Hepatitis. Gee, sensing a pattern here? The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Everything’s a catastrophe! Oh, really? Where are the stories about peristalsis? Where is perspiration? WHERE IS HAIR GROWTH? Maybe those just aren’t sexy enough miracles for the woke media, who cannot summon interest in anything unless they can see “harm” being “done” to the point that “people” are “ill.” Extra credit for death, you ghouls!

Physical and sexual abuse. Herschel Walker. Eric Greitens. Donald Trump. Charles Herbster. Max Miller. Matt Schlapp. Dennis Hastert. Madison Cawthorn. Tom Reed. Blake Farenthold. Jim Jordan. Roy Moore. What do these people have in common? Well, they are all Republican political figures. And they have all been accused of sexual or physical abuse or — in the case of U.S. Rep. Jordan (R-Ohio) — covering it up on a mass scale. But you miss the point. Look closer: All of these people are men. Interesting, no? After all, 51% of the human race consists of the fairer sex. That’s more than half of the population of the earth. But, oh so conveniently, the media focus on abuse against women, by men, and almost never vice versa. QED. The press had decided, in spite of the obvious arithmetic, that violence against men by the little lady just doesn’t matter. Seem odd to you? Me, too.

International events. There are 193 countries of the world, including quite a few shitholes. Think of media coverage lately. For instance, today is Constitution Day in a land called Norway. All day in that country, children will carry flags and thank God for His benevolence. Mutton and cabbage will be served everywhere. It’s like the Fourth of July, except there are no Chevrolet Spring Clearance Blowouts. Tell me, please: How many stories about the Norwegians did you read today? Could the answer possibly be “zero”? And Laos? Belize? Luxembourg? In Portugal on Saturday, a proud people celebrated the 31st birthday of Bobi, the world’s oldest dog. Needless to say, the front page of The Jew York Times was silent on that subject. Why? Putin Derangement Syndrome. The liberal media has decided, in its infinite wisdom, that it must be concerned overseas only with big, bad Russia. Ukrainian snowflakes whimper about the supposed assault on democracy and “war crimes” and “genocide,” but they somehow still managed to send a musical duo to Eurovision. Cue the world’s tiniest balalaika, as the Radical Left claims Russia’s so-called special military operation has killed or injured 23,000 civilians and 130,000 soldiers. Oh, really? Two words: Benghazi. Benghazi.

FBI. All these people do is chase down violators of federal law and treat them like criminals. These jackbooted thugs are so twisted with suspicion and evidence and probable cause, yet millions of pedophiles roam free. Funny how the press doesn’t connect those dots. This is treason. Lock ’em up.
