These reporters are, at best, stenographers of state propaganda serving an agenda they’re not even fully aware of.

For evidence, this WAPO hit piece of Twitter doesn’t even bother to mention The Twitter Files or Missouri V Biden, and there couldn’t be more important news about journalism to be covering at the moment.

The jingoistic reporting you describe should surprise no one, particularly after the last 3 years, but anyone not sleepwalking should’ve previously woken up at some other event overhyped by media to serve a statist agenda.

You must give them credit though. Even here in the birthplace of the free speech movement only about 1 in 100 people know of Missouri v Biden. When I introduce the topic to people most prefer not to learn about it. I can’t blame them. Sucking on that sweet blue pill teet yields a much happier existence.
