The topic was the campaign of LIES waged by wingnut media - how the NYP writer (not reporter) had to resign over lie that HARRIS's book was being spread to detained children and how Faux Propaganda Network's John ROBERTS retracted his lie that BIDEN was going to delete red meat.
Most times they go around to everybody else first or else Teh Meegan will yammer on with no time left. So when they got to her she started with, "Bear with me..." meaning 5 solid minutes. And then it went, "I am the token Conservative, not only here but on the entire media, like ONE out of FIVE is enough to represent. We've never had a Hot Topic about Hunter BIDEN but if Don Jr or Ivanka cough the wrong way we would do not one segment but two. And John ROBERTS is (totally paragon of journalism). And does anybody think Jim ACOSTA is not an activist? I know I don't trust him or the rest."
********So way after that dust settled and they got back to Joy, Joy did a preface and got to, "I want to set something straight. ALL of the networks - ABC, CBS, NBC have both Libs and Conservatives working. It is simply INCORRECT that (they all lean Lib)."
I just wish she had said "LIE FROM LYING MCCAIN" instead of "incorrect."
And yesterday, the Cindy McCAIN took over the ABC line-up with her new book - GMA and The View, like they own it.

.... McCain opened her part of the discussion by first lamenting the current state of media or more to the point, the sad fact that, in her esteem, she is the token and only conservative woman in all of media, which made this subject particularly weird for her to discuss. She went on to assert her conservative bona fides by boasting that her husband, Ben Domenech, founded The Federalist, which she described as one of the most influential conservative websites on the internet.
McCains description of what she deems a clear liberal bias (which is a point of view shared by millions by the way) was not entirely novel, but her calling out of The View producers for topics they cover was noteworthy.
What I find interesting is not the stories we talk about, but the stories we dont talk about, she said. We never talked about Hunter Biden whereas [if] Ivanka Trump or Donald Trump, Jr. coughed in the wrong directions we talk about it.

The only question to ask is "what the fuck is she on about this time?!"
