MRC on Facebook"The media spent most of 2021 desperately trying to protect Joe Biden from his own many, many screw-ups. Here are our picks for the Praising and Protecting Old Joe Award of 2021!"
Naturally, the elephant in the room here is Joe Biden, who is a protected individual due to being a Democrat. The majority of the American press is also aligned with the Democrats therefore biased and skewed in their ‘non-reportage’. Is child abuse not child abuse whatever political faction one belongs to? Why are Democrats allowed to commit such acts without a single word in the Democrat-leaning media being uttered? Is the hatred of Trump and his supporters justification for allowing child abuse to be allegedly committed by a Democrat and go unchecked?
Parody from The Babylon Bee "2021 was a banner year for CNN! For 12 long months, we looked to their fake news coverage for guidance, clarity, and above all, laughs. Let's take a look back at some of CNN's biggest stories of the year!
Newsweek "Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Thursday accused the U.S. of sowing "serious doubt" in its own global credibility, and claimed closer Beijing-Moscow cooperation would create an unshakeable front against foreign "hegemonism.' ". . .
Reader comments on this news:
Bring it on China. You want to act like a renegade criminal organization instead of one of the largest countries in the world, nobody takes you seriously.
Taiwan is a Democracy and 80% of their population do NOT want to be part of China. If china keeps on the path they are on it will be just them and Russia against the world. It is China that needs to grow up and quit acting like a bully in world affairs.
. . ."As I have written inThe American Spectator, the free market can inhibit China’s future inspirations. However, relocation of manufacturing and cutting cross-border and local exposure will take time and may not be enough. A trial at The Hague, a judicial body of the United Nations, might result in a loss of face for the Chinese Politburo, however the UN is tilted toward anti-western policies, and a complaint would position the U.S. in conflict with developing countries, and those members of the Belt and Road Initiative. Unfortunately, we are currently stuck with this: “it is what it is.”
In the face of the US' irresponsible behaviors in Afghanistan, regional countries need to strengthen their cooperation with each other. They can also promote international security cooperation through regional organizations to prevent potential risks, which are the natural spillovers of terrorism. On the other hand, the international community should pay more attention to the Afghan issue and push Washington to shoulder its responsibilities so that there will never be a second Islamic State.
. . ."Stephen Miller, a former senior adviser of President Donald Trump, claimed Biden only used the imitation White House set so he could read a script directly from a face-on monitor.
“The reason Biden uses this bizarre virtual set for televised meetings — and not an actual room like East Room, Cabinet, Oval, Roosevelt, Sit Room, etc. — is because it allows him to read a script directly from a face-on monitor (& w/out teleprompter glass that can be seen on camera),” hetweeted.
“ 'Do they not allow him in the actual White House,” New Hampshire journalist Kimberly Morintweeted.
' 'Why did the White House build a literal game show set complete with fake windows for Joe Biden??? So weird,” Abigail Marone, press secretary for Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.),tweeted." . . .More...
"The event space is being used for White House events that are being broadcast. The area is bigger than the actual Oval Office, and provides an area for journalists.
"Martha Kumar, director of the White House Transition Project explained that this room in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building is being used more regularly due to it being more accessible." . . .
. . .The controversy, which was quickly debunked and backtracked, was used to stir concerns about the president’s health as he recovered from COVID-19. But you won’t see the same concern from corporate outlets about 78-year-old Biden’s health, despite his numerous physical and mental tumbles.
Why is the Biden White House using a fake Oval Office? Who knows. You probably won’t hear much about it, because it probably isn’t newsworthy and probably isn’t a scandal.
But Biden’s fake set actually exists, which already makes it newsier, and more scandalous, than the Trump greenscreen that wasn’t.
