It is so pathetic how the media lies now, even when it's completely obvious.
It's always been obvious.

How was he never tried for treason?
Lying the US into a war sounds like treason to me.
My good friend is the father of the journalist who came up with this on the spot while she was interviewing the NASCAR race winner.That is not reporting or journalism. It is covering up, lying, obscufating.
I don't think it has sunk in for many, how BADLY Trump helped change the character of the political arena, and how deeply and long-term he tainted the "conservative" and "Republican" brands.Gotta fight fire with fire. Nobody won a war by being a pussy.

Someone posted this in a forum.
"My good friend is the father of the journalist who came up with this on the spot while she was interviewing the NASCAR race winner. The network praised her for her quick thinking. She is a highly regarded reporter who interviews for NASCAR and several Olympic games. She has received thousands of death threats. Please say a prayer for her."

My comment on the situation:
Unlike MOST US PRESIDENTS, Trump actively polarized political sides against one another PERSONALLY. He went out of his way to mock and belittle and even dehumanize his political enemies, modelling this behavior and normalizing it to his admirers, and facilitating their shift to the type of extremism that results in THOUSANDS OF DEATH THREATS sent to a young woman reporter FOR THE MORTAL SIN OF NOT PARROTING THEIR EXACT SENTIMENTS.

She's a live TV journalist, working for an entity that can be heavily sanctioned for broadcasting "dirty words."Curse words occassionaly make it through live brodacasts. Typically the reporters acknowledge it in a sheepish way, and may even apologize or comment on its inappropriateness. But misrepresenting reality is a poor solution for a reporter or journalist.

Having said that, death threats are uncalled for but happens on both sides. In fact, I'd argue actual threats and deaths happen more to people defending against the Left and communism.
Death threats - if those happen - or threats of violence are never ok and should always be condemend, but they come from the left far more than from any other spectrum. The left is also

Another for whom the cognitive dissonance burns deeply like hydrofluoric acid.
You can be on different sides without lying. Journalism is about telling the truth.

She's interviewing a race car driver, not a fricking Head of State. It's entertainment, and she can be considered as acting in the capacity of ad hoc optics management for the sake of an entertainment broadcast.
Remember, I actually agree with the sentiment "Fuck Joe Biden!" and would enthusiastically join the crowd in shouting it as loud as I could, which is pretty damn loud. But, I also don't have to stay beholden to an elaborate anti-conservative conspiracy theory to explain the behavior of a chick reporter when "the forbidden seven words" break out during her live broadcast.
This is getting to be like the part of the McCarthy era where people finally openly confront the obvious bullshit with, "Have you no decency, Sir?"
This has nothing to do with Trump, but he is being blamed for any and all polarization these days.

#FuckJoeBiden most popular president ever, with 978 trillion legitimate votes. Yet every college football game for 2 weeks has jumped on this trend [chanting fuck Joe Biden]. Please note that younger people supposedly voted for Senile Joe in droves.
