The MSM isn’t an unbiased agency that’s just here to report the facts. They are the PSYOPS division of those who would seize the reins of power in this nation. Let me show you:
A CNN anchor called the person who threatened to kill the President an “undocumented immigrant” and insisted she was doing so to “humanize the debate.” Miller responded with this:
Miller: “Humanize? Then let’s humanize the Penal Code too. The bank robber becomes a ‘specialist in unscheduled withdrawals’. The con artist turns into an ‘entrepreneur of alternative financial narratives’. The guy who breaks into your house uninvited is just a ‘visitor with pending documentation’. How about that?”
CNN: “That’s a crude analogy.”
Miller: “Crude is pretending federal law vanishes because CNN’s copy desk cooked up a cuddlier euphemism. ‘Undocumented’ sounds like someone who forgot their wallet in an Uber. No. It’s someone who crossed the border without authorization, stayed, and now the press treats the legal statute like it’s a matter of writing style.”
CNN: “But many contribute to the economy…”
Miller: “Ah, the classic argument: crime stops being crime if the person washes dishes or builds roofs. By the same token, the cigarette smuggler ‘contributes’ too, creates jobs in transport. Want us to call him an ‘informal logistics entrepreneur’? Would CNN go for that?”
CNN: “You’re polarizing.”
Miller: “No. I’m rejecting the marketing dictionary. You change the word, then accuse anyone who uses the legal term of being ‘inhumane’. It’s the oldest trick in the book: first soften the vocabulary, then declare moral victory. The United States is tired of this theater. Call it what it is. Or admit the goal was never clarity—it was narrative control.”
I stopped trusting the MSM during Hurricane Katrina. I was deployed there as part of the FEMA response to that particular disaster. I saw MSM reports about how no one was helping the people there, how there were no supplies anywhere. Meanwhile, we were standing just a few yards away handing out food, diapers, and giving Tetanus and DPT shots. One reporter had to start over when the segment he was filming about George Bush ignoring Katrina victims and not sending food was ruined when a guy walked by casually in the background with a sandwich and a soft drink.
I was there when a plane crash happened at an airshow. The press was interviewing this moron on the news who claimed he wanted to go help the pilots, but the fire department wouldn’t let him, held him back. He says we held him from helping the injured pilot, and blamed us for the pilot’s death. What they failed to mention is the two aircraft hit head on at a combined 800 miles per hour, both pilots were killed on impact, and he was being held back because debris and aircraft fuel was still raining down over the area and we didn’t need the crowd rushing in to get in our way.
That was when I discovered that the media isn’t in the business of selling truth. They are in the business of selling advertising space. The best way to do that is to pander to the masses. The MSM is nothing more than bullshit clickbait, and has been since, well, forever.
There is no Pravda in Izvestia, and there is no Izvestia in Pravda.

“Most of the outlets are reporting on world events from Washington. The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.”
~Ben Rhodes, Obama speechwriter and foreign policy advisor
(and)
«You’re reading the newspaper when you come across an article discussing a topic you know well. The author of the article, being a reporter, has no special knowledge of the topic, and as you read you find numerous logical inconsistencies. You find misunderstood concepts. You find factual errors that anyone versed in the subject would know to look for.
You then turn the page and read another article, this time on a topic on which you’re a layman. As you read, you feel informed and as if you learned something, promptly forgetting that viewed from a position of knowledge, the previous article was entirely composed of bullsh*t.”
~Michael Crichton
I can’t remember how long ago I read that Crichton quote about Gell-Mann Amnesia, but it was then that I stopped reading the paper and watching the news. Because I realized how right it was.
