When This Blows Over

And while I can't speak for every locality, at the
federal level, the media is not doing its job.
Tragically, our national media now sees itself as part
of the government, and as a consequence, the media's
mission to hold institutions accountable has been
dropped entirely in favor of relentless agendapushing.
Even more insidious is the coordination.
Across a vast landscape that includes, but is not
limited to
ABCCBSNBCCNNMSNBCPBSNPRPoliticoWashington
Post LosAngelesTimes
ESPNUnivisionNewYorkTimesBostonGlobe, all the
same stories are covered in the same way (if you
disagree, watch the ABCCNNCBSNBC Sunday shows):
Central government is not suspect, it is good; Democrats
are virtuous, multiculturalism trumps e pluribus unum,
and anyone who disagrees is backwards, selfish, and
racist. The elite media has accomplished this through its
own professional blacklist.
If you are a journalist who does not subscribe to this,
you are Out, and even that is not enough. As a capital "J"
journalist or pundit (this includes most every so-called
conservative employed in the elite media), you must
prove yourself by using the approved language
("undocumented immigrant") and the approved approach
towards those who do not hold the approved opinions
(Christianity=bigotry, border security=racism, refusal to
violate your religious conscience=hate). Moreover, not
covered by this fiercely-policed clique are stories that
contradict the media's over-arching agenda. And by
"covered" I do not mean rote coverage.
