The press must get across to American citizens the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win. They don’t need to surrender their journalistic independence to do so or be “in the tank” for Biden or anyone else.
It’s now clearer than ever that Trump, if elected, will use the federal government to go after his political rivals and critics, even deploying the military toward that end. His allies are hatching plans to invoke the Insurrection Act on day one.
“But… but… fairness! Both sides!”
Yeah, that’s the damage Fox News has done to our national discourse. As if all sides of the story are backed equally by facts.
To quote Gingrich, “As a political candidate, I’ll go with what people feel…” Because manipulating people’s feelings is easier than manipulating facts.
