DISGUSTING COVERAGE OF JAN 6 RIOTERS WHO BELIEVED TRUMP'S LIES,
KILLED & INJURED OFFICERS, DEFECATED & URINATED IN THE CAPITOL, ALONG
WITH MASSIVE DAMAGE!
DON'T RE-WRITE HISTORY TO PROTECT CRIMINALS!
MANY OF THE JAN 6 CAPITOL RIOTERS HAD PREVIOUS VIOLENT CRIMINAL
HISTORIES!
No, Corporate Media. Jan 6 Rioters Are Not Hostages. They’re Traitors. Stop Kissing Trump's Ring.
Never obey in advance
Yesterday was a brutal day for America, with the constant reminders of the January 6th attack on the Capitol.
There was actually a lot of good coverage from the Press. Most made it clear that Trump was to blame for the violent insurrection, and called out his criminal cult rioters for what they really are.
Others in corporate media took a different angle, and decided to kiss Donald’s ring instead.
I analyzed dozens of the stories about January 6th that ran yesterday. Of those, at least 13 were just plain wrong. Defending the indefensible, so many news orgs put up terrible articles that were apologetic sympathy ads for the rioters.
USA Today did a “Where are they now?” story, as if they’re celebrities. The Independent did something similar. The Daily Mail applauded their defiance and said, “Sorry, Joe! The January 6 Capitol attack looks BETTER two years on.”
Local outlets across the country followed suit, posting ridiculous headlines and positive pieces about the Trump supporters who attacked our democracy.
NBC NY, Fox Minneapolis-St. Paul, The Des Moines Register, LA Times, and so many others printed positive stories about “what happened” to these ‘poor’ maga cult members.
CBS’s 5NewsOnline in Arkansas actually repeated the Trump lie that they are “hostages” in their headline.
But the worst was The New York Times, who ran an article deserving of those who defended the Capitol—not the ones who stormed it. Titled, “The Jan. 6 Rioters, 4 Years Later,” they give ridiculous updates on 8 of the criminals from that day.
It gives the impression they are part of some patriotic struggle, and their prison sentences were not deserved. The cover image displayed 9 dramatic, heroic-looking, black-and-white Glamour Shot photos of the convicted rioters.
We are talking about criminals who took part in a violent attempt to overthrow our government, and overturn our presidential election. They chose to believe the biggest pathological liar in American history. And go so far to enter the Capitol, with an intent to delay the election certification.
I don’t feel bad for any of them. And I don’t need an update on their personal lives.
I want to know about the heroic police officers who stood their ground that day and defended democracy. I want to hear about the staffers who took the boxes of electoral votes to safety.
What a grotesque display of obeying in advance. None of this both-sides coverage should be accepted by any of us. It’s garbage.
That’s why we’re sharing this article with millions of people, to call out the fact that corporate media is already kneeling to Donald.
I don’t have billionaire bosses controlling what I write. You won’t ever see ads here, or a defense of Jan 6 rioters. And I will never, ever back down to Trump.
