Too Rotten for the Nation’s Good

 "On the subject of John Fetterman, the woke media outdid itself and will now pay the price."


The American Spectator   "There are few places where today’s cultural rot is more gangrenous than in legacy journalism. This has been such a problem for such a long time it hardly seems worthwhile drawing attention to it. Imagining that half the country doesn’t care and the other half has given up, it is easy to slip into despair about it and just accept it.
"But, thank heavens, Leighton Woodhouse, writing in the Tablet, has brought our attention back to it, writing with a lucid and burning urgency about the case of the compromised media and John Fettermen.
"Fettermen is the Democrat candidate for the Pennsylvania Senate seat that the Republican incumbent vacated. He suffered a serious, debilitating stroke several months ago. Choosing not to drop out of the race, Fettermen avoided public appearances and mounted a fairly effective campaign, hidin’ out of sight and bidin’ his time, just as Old Joe did, and let the corrupt media cover for him.
"The best thing for all would have been that Fetterman recovered, and fully; in this savage age, let’s hold on to our decency. The best for us all would be a campaign in which the competing ideas would be fairly and clearly set out and we would win because our ideas and our programs are better.
"But the world being what it is, Fetterman is still seriously impaired. Whether he is able to take on the responsibilities of the job he aspires to still is a question that concerns a large percentage of voters.
"And because a truthful answer to that question seems increasingly likely to lower Fetterman’s chance of winning, that large percentage of the legacy media decided that the truth must be concealed, and that those who try to reveal it should be destroyed.
"So when NBC News’ Dasha Burns reported on Fetterman’s cognitive impairment as if it was a legitimate interest, she was given the woke takedown that has become all too familiar.". . .
