...ain't it great how the big media outlets never ONCE showed a wide shot of that event. Not then and not now.

We here at DU knew early on.

Our so-called "free press" is an ongoing and outright disgrace. They misinform, disinform, and hide information in order to manufacture consent for whatever schemes our idiot elites come up with to put more $$$ in their own pockets.

A pox on all their houses.
