Unfortunately this is in no way limited to the WH press corps or right-wing pundits - I can report that the entire Danish news media landscape still does this with complete reliability.

In fact, even though it's the only objective way of covering US politics I can't remember having seen a single example from news media anywhere in the world that was anywhere near "Man who has spouted nothing but nonsense his entire carreer unsurprisingly still spouts nonsense".

- and remember how you believed them, largely because your sources of news & information either have the memory span of a goldfish or wants you to have it, and thus never, ever called them out on the many, MANY ways we knew & had documentation that this "law & order" claim was a baldfaced lie...?

Une (rare) chronique sur la présence des ex-politiciens dans l'espace médiatique québécois, où ils sont omniprésents - élément qui ne laisse de surprendre lorsqu'on arrive de l'extérieur.

La chroniqueuse relève le problème que pose cette connivence pour des questions d'homogénéité sociale, professionnelle, et d'exposition de la politique politicienne, principalement.

Il y a un point central, absent explicitement du texte : en démocratie, les médias sont le "4e pouvoir", un véritable contre-pouvoir (OK, il y a des conditions à cela et rien ne se fait parl'opération d'une simple baguette magique. N'empêche). En brouillant les frontières entre espace médiatique et espace politique, la présence d'ex-politiciens dans l'espace médiatique québécois affaiblit l'espace du débat démocratique.

This one is worth an 8 minute listen - The 4th Estate is just the 4th conspirator in this whole slide into fascism.

Propaganda = entangling the question of whether it's raining or not in enough verbiage to trick journalists into "letting people make up their own mind".

Discuss.

Today in "We're in this because of the press": With more than 10 million people in the streets in +2000 locations across the US, right now the combined national #news #media in Denmark has a grand-total of one (1) article that even mentions #NoKings at all on their front pages - no numbers, specifics or perspective & few pics tho.

Meanwhile, every single one of them has at least one full, pretty article about his military parade.

The #4thEstate of Democracy has lost their fucking minds.
