This!
It's a travesty that this occurred. Speech was severely censored on real, serious topics, to drive a narrative to hurt a presidential candidate and this was deemed acceptable by great amounts of people. If this had happened the other way around, it would have been a scandal as big as Watergate.
It's truly sad that happened. But it highlights how untrustworthy the "4th estate" is. They are vested interests and should not be trusted any longer and should have their stake revoked. No one should take them seriously for anything.
- momdad420 5y ago"it would have been a scandal as big as Watergate." Wow, absolutely no hyperbole here. What a stupid take. There was no hit job. Trump's a moron. Anything he did at all in response to the virus was reactionary and too little too late. Ban travel from China. Ok. Oh look, the virus is coming over from Italy. "narrative to hurt a political candidate" give me a fucking break. I would've loved someone to go hard on China. We didn't get it. We got lazy inaction, straight up denial and racist diatribes upon baseless claims without any precautions Also journalists aren't a monolith. What in the fuck are you smoking.

- myko 5y ago> to drive a narrative to hurt a presidential candidate He did that on his own by being completely ineffective against COVID-19 and making the situation much worse. There is a reason his supporters tend to be antivax and propose hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin over the vaccines. If trump had focused less on the racism and more on effective measures to combat the virus journalists would not have dumped on him.
