GOP Aide Admits To Journalist Why They're Letting People Die

[unblock]

76. more evidence the *media* is highly biased in favor of the right-wing, and the right-wing knows it

if the media were at all objective, republicans they would know the media would simply have to pin the blame on republicans for obstructing and misinforming and in so many ways trying to sabotage biden and our collective anti-covid efforts.

but republicans know that they can create a disaster and then when it comes time to assign blame, the media will happily and endlessly repeat whatever republicans say at that point. if they want to blame biden, the media will report that ad nauseum. if by then there's a more politically expedient target (say biden declines to run for re-election, but a new front-runner emerges), then they're blame that person somehow.

they know the media will give wings to any and all republican smears.


if we had an objective, responsible media, republicans wouldn't dare try something like this. there's always room for sabotage, in small, secretive ways. not on anything like the nationwide, public scale that they're doing now.
