The Morning Briefing: MSM Really Earning 'Enemy of the People' Status During Riots

Willfully lying and thereby endangering the public really does earn them “Enemy of the People” status. I attack the MSM in writing because every one of them is deserving of scorn and derision right now and that probably won’t change even after Trump is out of office. They’ve become that bad.

PJ Media  "We all know that I am no fan of the mainstream media (MSM) and do tend to go after its heinously irresponsible members quite a lot. Let’s be honest here, kids: they deserve it.
"As I have mentioned a few times, it was liberal bias in the  MSM that compelled me to write about politics in the first place. It had bothered me for many years and when it came time to launch a humble political blog to fill up the time between gigs, that was my primary focus, and remains so today. (Side note: I used to write a lot about school choice back then too. Maybe I should do a post or two about that in the near future.)
"Regular readers of the Briefing are well aware of how much I have lamented the MSM’s performance during our coronapocalypse isolation fun. Every time I think that the faux journalists in the MSM have hit rock bottom in the Trump era, one of them finds another shovel and says, “Let’s keep digging!' ” . . .
'Shh!': George Floyd Protestors Become Agitated with a CNN Reporter


. . . "This has got to be one of the rudest and most insensitive things. People are mourning. They're holding a moment of silence – where no one talks – to remember someone who is no longer with us. But, of course, CNN wants to disrupt that because they care more about their failing ratings than they do about respecting others."

Greg Gutfeld Blasts Liberal Media’s Biased Coverage Of Riots, Dishonest Blaming Of Trump
There was another night of looting Monday. But what’s the media’s priority? Criticizing President Trump, of course. CNN anchors and reporters had plenty to say about the president.
Anderson Cooper said of Trump: “He calls them [rioters] thugs? Who is the thug here? Hiding in a bunker, hiding behind a suit?”
Don Lemon said: “We are teetering on a dictatorship. Is the president declaring war on Americans? What is happening here?”
Chris Cuomo said: “The president had been saying incendiary things, certainly if you’ve been listening with any kind of open-mindedness, certainly not helpful things.”
And CNN White House reporter Jim Acosta said of the president: “He’s all but calling on authorities to crack skulls at these protests. It’s not something you normally see in the United States of America. It’s something you see in more authoritarian countries.”
Amazing. Meanwhile, the headline on an editorial in The New York Times reads: “America’s Protests Won’t Stop Until Police Brutality Does.” Meaning, they hope this could go on forever…
The New York media, by sticking to their narrative that we deserve punishment, reject protecting our citizens. They mock the need for military intervention.
People have families, relatives and spouses who work at night. When our leaders believe this mayhem is inevitable, even necessary, then who protects us now?
