The American Media Has Drifted from the Founding Fathers' Vision

The American press once hailed as a cornerstone of democracy, has increasingly become a mouthpiece for a corrupt and communist Democratic Party. It deviates from the impartial and independent institution envisioned by our founding fathers, who, aware of the power of a free press, saw it as a watchdog over government, a defender of the people's rights, and a forum for robust debate. Today, however, the corporatized media landscape reflects a different reality.

The Founding Fathers' Vision

When the framers of the Constitution enshrined the freedom of the press in the First Amendment, they intended to protect an institution that could provide unbiased news and diverse viewpoints. The press was meant to be a check on the abuse of power, ensuring that no single entity, including the government, could dominate the flow of information. It was supposed to be a platform for truth-seeking, where ideas could be freely exchanged and scrutinized.

The Current State of the Media: Narratives over News

Fast-forward to today and the media appears to have aligned itself with partisan interests, particularly those of a Democratic Party captured by oligarchs and radical communists. This alignment is not just a matter of bias but a concerted effort to shape narratives, influence voters, and advance a malignant authoritarian agenda.

Major news outlets often present stories through a lens that favors radical Democratic Party talking points, ignoring and downplaying conservative viewpoints and omitting critical, commonsense perspectives that challenge the narratives of the Democrat Party elites.

The result is a media environment where low-information voters are easily swayed by one-sided reporting. These voters, often disengaged from the political process by the burdens of everyday life, are bombarded with selective information that reinforces the misleading talking points and lies of the Democrat Party. The media's role in this process is not to inform but to persuade, leading to a public that is not just uninformed but badly misinformed by propaganda.

Media and Zealotry

In addition to influencing low-information voters, the media also bows to the more radically zealous elements of the Democrat base. A group of agitator-led rioters, looters, arsonists, and murderers find their views constantly validated by a media landscape that mirrors its beliefs. The echo chamber effect is in full force, where extreme views are amplified and normalized, further polarizing the political climate in America.

Journalists Remain Incurious and Non-Assertive.

Today's journalists are highly aware of the progressive cancel culture and corporations seeking to replace high-priced talent with more affordable talent. We often speak not of working journalists but of personality-driven news readers who have built their own following. It doesn't matter if you are telling the truth; you are just capturing eyeballs, ears, and clicks. Nothing is worth bucking the system in these challenging times when artificial intelligence can produce stories that rival the output of trained journalists.

These are the journalists willing to accept the basement campaign of a major candidate without comment--staging phony interviews where the product is scripted, pre-taped, and features a two-on-one format where Vice President Kamala Harris and her minder Tim Walz can effectively manage tough lines of inquiry with strategic interruptions. This is not a news interview but a semi-scripted reality show.

Bottom line…

This shift has profound implications for American democracy. A media that no longer serves as a neutral arbiter of information but as a tool of partisan influence that undermines the foundation of a democratic society.

Again, the press is not the free and independent institution the founding fathers envisioned but a vehicle for political manipulation.

The American media has strayed far from the principles that were supposed to guide it. Rather than serving the public interest, it has become a platform for advancing the interests of the Democrat Party, shaping public opinion in ways that are detrimental to the health of our democracy.

If we are to preserve the values of a free press, there must be a return to the journalistic integrity and independence that our founders so fervently believed in.

Are we going to allow ourselves to succumb to a media that will present bald-faced lies from people who claim to be journalists, people who will say anything written on a teleprompter and preach anything depending on the whims of the corporate masters?

What are the progressive communist democrats and their media propagandists hiding? 

Are we going to allow them to interfere with a presidential election on behalf of the ruling elites and a regime filled with communists, anti-Semites, Islamists, Hamas supporters, and Iranian sympathizers, with communist Chinese special pleaders and perverts who want to institutionalize sexual perversions and genital mutilation, Soros prosecutors who want to defund the police and release criminals into our communities, and believe a communist teachers union should ignore mothers and fathers in favor of teachers and other experts?

If so, we are so screwed.
