The beatings will continue until trust is restored

Hot Air: "How Low Can You Go: New Gallup Poll On the Trust-in-Media Limbo."

I've said this several times before but it bears repeating: the current legacy media must be burned to the ground.  Jeff Bezos should just fire everyone at the Washington Post and start anew. 

I'm feeling sad for Jeff Bezos. He sent out a blast yesterday, hoping for change. The paper today absolutely sucks. It is biased, stupid, partisan, packed with pathetic tropes, pounding the same worn bongos every single day. It's awful. He might just have to fire everyone.

Even more winning

PJ Media: "Jeff Bezos Orders WaPo Opinion Section to Concentrate on 'Personal Liberties and Free Markets'." 

This is great news

Fox News: "Trump admin guts White House Correspondents Association in bid to end 'monopoly' of 'DC journalists' - The WHCA has determined access to the White House for decades." 

I forget where I saw it but the judge in the Associated Press lawsuit asked why the White House Correspondents Association had any standing in the case given they had no legal standard.  It's just a collection of (mostly) like-minded notebook-scratchers. 

Flashback

Just a little reminder on the occasion of Lester Holt leaving NBC Nightly News: "NBC's Lester Holt says we don’t need to hear both sides to define truth: ‘Fairness is overrated’." 

Temporary stays are not legal decisions

Jonathan Turley: "“We’re Winning Across the Board”: Raskin Takes a Premature Victory Lap Just Before a Slew of Court Losses." 

Twitchy: "Legal Analyst Leaves MSNBC Panel SPEECHLESS Pointing Out Trump Isn't Losing Legal Battles and LOL"

Tough times at MSNBC!

The winning continues

NY Post: "MSNBC cancels Joy Reid’s lefty show as network makes major shakeup." 

It only took Reid and MSNBC losing half their viewers since Trump's election.

Extra - Red State: "Schadenfreude Overload At MSNBC: Race-Obsessed Joy Reid and Others Finally Get the Kibosh." 

"Uber Eats driver" - that's the description they chose

Recent news from here in Western Massachusetts.  See if you can guess the inconvenient fact about this Uber Eats driver the Boston Globe omitted from the headline: "Uber Eats driver charged with raping customer in her Wilbraham apartment."

An Uber Eats driver is facing a rape charge for allegedly using a “ruse” to enter a female customer’s Wilbraham home and rape her during a delivery, legal filings show.

Roiber Andres Rodriguez Melendez, 21, pleaded not guilty on Feb. 14 to a rape count in Palmer District Court, records show. He was ordered held without bail after a dangerousness hearing.

His lawyer said Friday that he denies the allegations.

Rodriguez Melendez, who also has a pending case out of South Hadley for alleged motor vehicle violations, is a Colombian national who is “not here legally,” court papers said.

So an illegal alien raped a woman in Wilbraham.  To add insult to injury, he had an active warrant which means he's exactly the kind of person who would have been detained under the Laken Riley Act.

Every single Massachusetts politician except for Stephen Lynch (MA-8) voted against the Laken Riley Act.

The inevitable AP lawsuit

Twitchy: "The Associated Press Throws an Epic Toddler Tantrum, Sues Trump for Not Inviting Them to the Party."

An utterly ridiculous tantrum.  There is no free speech argument here: the AP can write whatever they want.  Also: the White House can grant or restrict access to any media outfit.

Have you considered calling Trump a "fascist" but harder?

Daily Caller: "‘Never Seen Anything Like This’: Fmr Clinton Pollster Says Dems’ Support ‘Is Falling Off A Cliff’." 

Robert Reich is an asshole

Robert Reich has been playing the same schtick for 30 years now and he still gets paid from stupid articles in the Guardian and some YouTube videos.  Like most charlatans humping the class warfare grift (e.g. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders), they will never debate and they can't stand the slightest bit of pushback.

Watch how easy it is to refute his premise: Jobs & Wozniak.  J.K. Rowling.  Hewlett & Packard.  That's just off the top of my head.

Yet another media outlet settles a lawsuit

Hot Air: "MSNBC Settles 'Uterus Collector' Lawsuit."

As predicted here, MSNBC's parent company has settled a defamation lawsuit filed against the network brought by a doctor who was dubbed the "uterus collector." The trial in this case was set to begin in April and MSNBC has wisely decided there was no upside to taking this to court.

There's a joke about Rachel Maddow that she's "always wrong, never in doubt."  I wonder how much of this settlement came out of her salary.

Another all-time low

Keep it up, Democrats.  Your'e doing great.

The Jasmine Crockett / Chuck Schumer / AOC axis of public relations is working out great. lmao look at these Dem numbers https://t.co/yGgW9my2AF

Hamas killed a baby

Then held on to the corpse for 16 months: "We Must Prepare Ourselves for the Pain of February 20."

Thursday, February 20, will always be remembered in Israeli history as a day of unimaginable emotional pain. It is a pain that should be felt by every civilized human being on this planet.

Hamas is releasing the bodies of four kidnapped victims. Let's be clear: these are not hostages. A hostage is someone who has been kidnapped and is alive. These are murder victims. They include the corpses of a mother, her toddler, and a nine-month-old infant who were kidnapped on Oct. 7 — 16 months ago — are being returned to Israel in coffins or body bags. In exchange for these bodies, hundreds of convicted mass murderers and terrorists will be released on Saturday. 

Pure evil.  I can't even with Gaza anymore.  I read stories like this and think: "Maybe we should ship the Palestinians to Jordan and turn Gaza into a parking lot."

Haha - what?

This is a bold strategy.  Let's see if it pays off, Cotton: "LA Mayor: I'm Investigating Why I Was 'Allowed' to Go AWOL." 

Stunning and brave

Legal Insurrection: "‘Wicked’ Star Cynthia Erivo Cast as Jesus in Hollywood Bowl’s ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’."

Never change, Hollywood.
