… Biden’s allies believe that journalists are failing to meet the moment; that they’re falling back on horse-race coverage and ignoring the knock of fascism at America’s door.
.....
... Many Biden supporters and campaign staffers have fashioned this argument into a shield against any critical coverage of the president. Like a previous White House occupant raving about “fake” stories, they sometimes behave as if they are the arbiters of what’s newsworthy at all. Sounding a bit like Donald Trump isn’t the only problem with this strategy, though; it’s also highly unlikely to advance the campaign’s larger goal of actually winning the election.

…The Biden campaign seems to believe that journalists should stop reporting on polls, rallies, and other tentpoles of traditional presidential races, and instead devote their resources to telling Americans that Trump wants to be a dictator, over and over again. If that means ignoring Biden’s missteps and weaknesses, well, the Biden campaign can accept that.

… I asked the Biden campaign about its relationship with the media…: “This election isn’t just about a few minor policy differences—we are running against a guy that has all but promised to erode American democracy, rule as a dictator and strip Americans of their freedom ”
..…
…Biden staffers clearly believe they have every right to set the agenda of journalistic decision making. As Berner put it, “There’s plenty of work that the White House and the campaign and others do behind the scenes to shape a story, to push back, to have editorial conversations. But when coverage is particularly out of bounds, it’s fair for them to make those criticisms public, because working the refs publicly is an important way of taking that spotlight and turning it around back on them.” That this statement sounded Trumpian seemed lost on her.
.....
...Biden’s belief in the Constitution means he supports a free and independent press. Authoritarians rise by lying and sowing mistrust. If journalists are truly going to combat that force—as Biden’s campaign implores them to do—they will have to be honest and rigorous about not just Trump but also his opponent.


Commentary:
The Neo-Marxist Fascists who rule us dont think that the ongoing media tongue bath is earnest enough. What else is new?
Biden will probably pull in about 400 million votes in November once all the plumbing leak votes, virtual votes and imaginary votes are tallied.
Nothing like a Soviet Style election after Soviet style convictions of Americans and political dissidents in America.

 

[crossbody]

Everything surrounding the democrats right now is negative including their 50 million dollar smear Trump as a "Convicted Felon" commercials to see if that moves the polls.

Democrats have a realm of negativity encapsulating them, and they are blind to it. Biden slurring, Biden's wandering and meandering off, Biden needing to be grabbed and walked off stages, etc.... all of that is negative.

50 million dollars... and the democrats are NOT able to run one good commercial about themselves- A MAJOR PROBLEM

 

[SweetSue92]

They are losing to "convicted felon" Donald Trump and, predictably, are handling it very, very poorly.

The next couple of months should be interesting to say the least.

 

[there4eyeM]

It is so easy to criticise either of the duality party's candidates that nothing other occurs to their flocks. "Simplicity" reigns over the simple.

The blob is a convicted felon.

 

[kyzr]

The blob is a convicted felon.

Biden is a ZOMBIE. Pick one.

 

[there4eyeM]

Biden is a ZOMBIE. Pick one.

Some will pick "other"; that is a choice and certainly not a worse one.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Here is the breakdown of Zogby's polling clients: " However, it aims to represent a balanced view of the American electorate by including a mix of respondents: 38% Democrat, 38% Republican, and 24% Independent/unaffiliated." But that is false.

However, pew.org writes that GOP, Dems, and Independents are 32%, 33%, and 30%, with the Independents highly favoring Biden over Trump.

Biden will win by six or seven %.

 

[jknowgood]

The blob is a convicted felon.

And he is still kicking Biden's ass!

 

[JGalt]

The blob is a convicted felon.

And you're an idiot who doesn't understand how our legal system works..

There hasn't been a sentence handed down yet, so he's not a "convicted felon."

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

And he is still kicking Biden's ass!

Naw, Trump is in the lower end of the margin of error.

 

[1srelluc]

There hasn't been a sentence handed down yet, so he's not a "convicted felon."

Yes he is, till such time as his felony conviction is overturned on appeal.

 

[there4eyeM]

It is probably true that Trump has no convictions, or at least not more than a conviction that he is the center of all and everything. Biden, on the other hand, has always shown a conviction for "going along to get along", uninspired and uninspiring. Plagiarizing when 'necessary', voting with the trend, and possibly advancing himself financially as so many of his colleagues have been know to do. These are both very human people. Neither is an example we would set for our children or grand-children to admire and follow. America is so great it has survived both these men in power. There may be a limit, however.

Almost a year ago.

Rejected.

The entire RepubliCratic Duopoly Party(RCDP) depends on quality propaganda, smoke & mirrors plus the divide & conquer strategy to keep the American constituency in check. Americans could @ any time vote into office ORIGINAL INTENT constitutionally based 'Independents' & put an end to the RCDP divide & conquer strategy, IF they had not been "conditioned"(public education) through the "gullibilization" process. To most Americans they believe that the sun rises & sets on one side or the other of the RCDP while failing to recognize that the two RCDP corporations(RNC/DNC) have been sleeping in the same bed for many moons. There's a reason ones elected RCDP officials are smoking $35.00 big Macanudo cigars & drinking $125.00 bottles of fine imported Chablis while in flight on their private tax funded jet aircraft, & U R NOT!

I don't know how many times I have said this, yet it falls on deaf ears as Leftists assume I worship the man. I do not.

Trump is a terrible husband, terrible with women and of low character in that entire dept, obviously. He's a middling father from what I have seen.

He's probably a better politician than businessman.

The election is a binary choice, and Jesus Christ is not on the ballot.

Obvious things are never obvious here.

The Dirty Democrats defending "democracy" is beyond ludicrous.
The Democrats are attempting to create a one-party autocracy where they can censor and arrest their opponents.
The are attacking the 1st and 2nd amendments.
They are attacking the Supreme Court.
They are stuffing ballots.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Clear your MB. Put all duopolists on ignore.

 

[BluesLegend]

Biden's illegals keep RAPING Americans so it's an uphill battle. Yes another American RAPED by a filth illegal, they just caught the POS. RAPED an American 13 year old girl in broad daylight in NY. Why is this asshole getting even 1 vote??

 

[d0gbreath]

And you're an idiot who doesn't understand how our legal system works..

Derp. The verdict convicted him. The sentence will incarcerate him.
