The Corporate Media weighs in on Trump's slurred speech and Musk's toadying obsequiousness. [View all]

I went to Google News for a list of headlines about last night’s “interview” with Trump on Twitter. With the exception of an OpEd in USA Today (Trump sounded like “a disoriented, racist Daffy Duck”), the mainstream news just ignored the disaster that unfolded, only noting “technical difficulties”. Yes, some new sources did characterize it correctly, but I was interested in the Big Names who have spent the last year hammering Biden’s mental acuity.

This goes beyond journalistic malpractice, and into the realm of things Julius Streicher would be proud of.
