"We've become political activists, some could argue propagandists."
“ 'This interview is professional suicide for me,” Logan told Ritland at the end of the revealing podcast.
"Logan said she agreed with Ritland for suggesting most outlets are “absurdly left-leaning.”
“ 'The media everywhere is mostly liberal, not just in the U.S. But in this country, 85% of journalists are registered Democrats – that’s just a fact. No one is registering Democrat when they’re really a Republican. So, the facts are on the side that you just stated: most journalists are Left, or liberal, or Democrat, or whatever word you wanna give it,” started in Logan.
“ 'How do you know you’re being lied to? How do you know you’re being manipulated? How do you know there’s something not right with the coverage?” she asked. “When they simplify it all and there’s no gray. There’s no gray. It’s all one way. Well, life isn’t like that. If it doesn’t match real life, it’s probably not — there’s something wrong.”
"Logan continued: “So, for example, all the coverage on Trump all the time is negative. … That’s distortion of the way things go in real life, because although the media has historically always been left-leaning, we’ve abandoned our pretense, or at least the effort, to be objective today.""The journalist then gave an example of former New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson admitting as much: “[Abramson] says, we would do dozens of stories about Trump every single day, and every single one of them was negative. She said, we have become the anti-Trump paper of record. Well that’s not our job. ”
. . . ‘[Then] I was targeted by Media Matters for America, which was an organization established by David Brock, who has dedicated himself to the Clintons.
‘It was their known propaganda organization.’ . . .
. . . ‘I made one comment about Benghazi,’ Logan said in Friday’s podcast." . . .

. . . "This is the same phenomenon we witnessed in both of Barack Obama’s two presidential campaigns, only switching out race for gender. Nearly every criticism of Obama was attributed to racism by at least some liberal reporters, even if it was a strict policy discussion. This discussion isn’t really based on legitimate complaints of sexism. It’s a preemptive defense of the Democratic candidates and an attempt to silence criticism." . . .
