(9,090 posts)all the time. it's malpractice. they're not doing due diligence.
on the other hand, her constituents also let her down in that regard. i'll bet the national talkers on those stations got some talking points and have been mentioning/attacking katie once in while as well to reinforce the local blowhards.
dems had no response when limbaugh started the attacks on AOC. right after she was elected and stuck her head out limbaugh spent signoficanat time on one show that i heard doing some stochastic terrorism. he said she wash so radical pelosi and the liberal media and dem establishment were going to have to "take her out". he kept using that phrase in a number of ways. how many other times did he do that?
in NY state uni of Syracuse support 9 rw stations that likely have been attacking AOC and maloney for years. and that school is 150 miles from the buffalo shooting and for over 30 years all RW stations, by definition, have been excusing racism, selling versions of 'replacement theory' to sell their voter suppression, and comforting the NRA and assault weapons after every shooting.
usually someone in a think tank somewhere comes up with derogatory nickname for dems like katie, or a meme, and they just keep using it and repeating it for years.
the dem party and allies and supporters let this shit happen all over the country with no response. we even let hundreds of schools and sports teams be used to attract advertisers for them.
how many votes and threats is that worth?
