Arggghhhh! Is this the same #FailingNewYorkTimes DJT is always deriding?

(Too bad he doesn't read....)

Or should I be asking - is this the Twilight Zone??

I am so grateful that there finally is a site that isn’t obsessed with right wing media instead of raising people’s awareness of the damage that the mainstream media does to Democrats. Steve Bannon has said that he always works to make sure he gets his most damaging smears into the mainstream media because that’s who the real damage is done to Democrats. He is right. He and his stooge Peter Schweitzer started the smear of the Clinton Foundation with Schweitzer’s book “Clinton Cash” and the mainstream media played along. The lies about the Bidens and Ukraine also originated with them. Schweitzer was the first to make those accusations in his book “Secret Empires”. His buddy Jon Solomon then wrote about them in The Hill. Next the NY Times then reported on them, clearly without bothering to double check those claims. My guess is that in both cases the Trump lovers in the NY FBI field office vouched for the accuracy of those stores but since the media has refused to report on their interference in the last election and the Times almost never acknowledges getting played we will probably never know.

So why are media watchdogs like MediaMatters obsessed with Fox News, not the mainstream media. When David Brock ran Media Mattters it was always reporting on the bias in the mainstream media.
