The president regularly blasts the media for reporting “fake news” but when you see the evidence, it’s hard to argue with him. Stefani Reynolds – CNP/MEGA

Since Donald Trump’s election in 2016, the mainstream media has shed its once-noble mission — the pursuit of the truth — and instead adopted a new purpose: to take down the president. In an excerpt from her new book, “Resistance at All Costs: How Trump Haters are Breaking America,” out Tuesday, KIMBERLEY STRASSEL examines how far the press will go in its relentless crusade . . .
Last week The Washington Post revealed the alarming news that House Democrats were considering having their anonymous “whistleblower” testify from a remote location, and in disguise. Just as shocking as the details of this plan was the justification the Post ladled on this Democratic effort to hide impeachment information from the public.
It explained, high up in the story, that the cloak-and-dagger approach was merely Democrats expressing “distrust of their GOP colleagues, whom they see as fully invested in defending a president who has attacked the whistleblower’s credibility and demanded absolute loyalty from Republicans.”
This, from a newspaper with a tagline of “Democracy Dies in Darkness.”
Maybe the better journalistic epitaph is: Democracy dies in bias. How did journalism get here? Read the rest HERE.
The “mainstream” media shed its once-noble mission about 50 years ago. They just get worse (more lefty) every year. Much of this is due to the fact that most of our colleges and universities are loaded with socialists and communists. To my knowledge, Trump still has not made any moves to eliminate the Department of Education. His Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, seems to be largely useless in regards to achieving this goal.
