The article, written by Victor Davis Hanson, which bears the name of this blog’s title, is absolutely superb – not to mention demonstrative of how little our one-side-only media give a damn about neutrality or basic fairness.
Mr. Hanson has put together a voluminous list of questions for our previous President – extremely important, telling questions – that a genuinely neutral media would have demanded answers to…but the media we’ve got largely gave little other than their one-day-and-out treatment.
By all means, use the above link and read every word. But, in the meanwhile, here are the first few questions Mr. Hanson suggests:
What did you mean when you were heard, by accident, on a hot mic, providing the following assurances to outgoing Russian Prime Minister Medvedev: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space . . . This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility”?
Did you and the Russian government have any private agreements to readjust Russian-American relations during your own 2012 reelection campaign? Were there other such discussions similar to your comments to Prime Minister Medvedev?
If so, do you believe such Russian collusion had any influence on the outcome of the 2012 election?
And those, folks, are just the beginning few. You’ve got the link. Read them all.
Then think about the questions being asked of Donald Trump – the ones media cannot get enough of, even without “hot mic” evidence, and understand what kind of media this country actually has.
Thank you, Mr. Hanson. Thank you very, very, much.
What are the citizens supposed to do when they find out they have a news media that lies to them?
How can society ensure they have a fair press?
What checks are there on bias/fraud in news media?
Why is news media for at least a decade now been allowed to pull the wool over the eyes of everyone that relies on them for information?
We need not only answers to those questions but a solution to this major problem. An unfair msm is a clear and very serious danger to this country.
