Jeff Tiedrich - journalistic fuckery in the wake of Charlie Kirk's killing: the press is failing us again

the worthless scribblers of the corporate-controlled press are not our friends, and they haven’t been our friends in a very long time — but that doesn’t make it any less galling to see them, in a time of crisis, pushing government propaganda and hatewashing divisive shitweasels.

yesterday morning, The Wall Street Journal tweeted out twaddle that no responsible news outlet should have published without first double-checking the shit out of it.




oh, sources are saying this, that the assassin’s bullets were engraved with ‘transgender ideology’? thank god the Journal is getting their information from unnamed government sources who obviously have no anti-trans political agenda to push and would never lie to the media. praise the day. thank you for enlightening us and making our lives ever-more richer, Wall Street Journal.

first of all, what the fuck?
