The list of Legacy Elite Media (LEMmings) maleficence is legion. In an era where one might consider trusting them to report reliably on such items as a pandemic, a border crisis, honest elections, inflation, child education and parental rights, the LEMming class has become less trustworthy and more dangerous than any period of yellow journalism in history.
From admitting they should do whatever they can to stop Trump, to ignoring Hillary’s smashing of phones while under subpoena and running her own server with classified emails, to covering up for Hunter’s laptop, to a college professor of “media studies” saying it was laughable that Hunter left his laptop at a repair shop, to ignoring BLM (Build Large Mansions) and Antifa riots with billions in damages to calling Jan 6 an insurrection, to ignoring FISA warrants which were full of nothing but press report clippings, to ignoring how election laws were desecrated in the 2020 election but going into full meltdown over a dimpled chad, to ignoring all the obvious lies of Russia collusion and trading a golden journalistic opportunity to uncover Obama’s weaponization of the DOJ for a career as a submissive slut stenographer of the Democrat party, to ignoring the border crisis and Trump’s offer of “double DOCA” to the Democrats for simply building a strong border, to ignoring the Democrat administration spying on a presidential candidate while experts like Lesley Stahl of the vaunted 60 Minutes admitted she knew absolutely nothing about it. I could go on and on and on!
Now for some comic relief. I took a look at the Associated Press Managing Editors Code of Ethics Revised and Adopted in 1995. I’m sure other LEMmings have a similar list of ignored standards that were once reviewed a quarter of a century ago. It is interesting to note the 1995 version seems different from the more recent version.
The 1995 version when juxtaposed against how the LEMming now operate is one of the funniest things I have ever read:
- The newspaper has a special responsibility as surrogate of its readers to be a vigilant watchdog of their legitimate public interests.
- The good newspaper is fair, accurate, honest, responsible, independent and decent.
- Truth is its guiding principle.
- It avoids practices that would conflict with the ability to report and present news in a fair, accurate and unbiased manner.
- It should vigorously expose wrongdoing, duplicity or misuse of power, public or private.
- The newspaper should guard against inaccuracies, carelessness, bias or distortion through emphasis, omission or technological manipulation.
- The newspaper should strive for impartial treatment of issues and dispassionate handling of controversial subjects.
- The newspaper should deal honestly with readers and newsmakers. It should keep its promises.
I’m sure none of the LEMming class is up on this list and would have a hard time remembering so many items that go against their basic nature. With that in mind, I offer a shorter version:
- Consider, for a brief instant, your Worldview might actually be wrong.
- When you report on a Democrat or radical leftist, say to yourself these letters – WIIWT
- What If It Were Trump
That should do it, even for someone as confused as Lesley Stahl.
“It avoids practices that would conflict with the ability to report and present news in a fair, accurate and unbiased manner.”
“It should vigorously expose wrongdoing, duplicity or misuse of power, public or private.”
Yet Lesley knew nothing about the spying of Trump, even at this point when so much has been uncovered.
The media is a joke, a shadow of what they considered themselves.
Well when you put it like that…. (ROFL) !
The sad part is the “LEMmings” really don’t get this, they are so polarized and so woke they really can’t do their job. Why is it that alternative media constantly outpaces the LEMmings million dollar enterprises? It is because they are locked into Democrat mind think!
