Kurt Schlichter: The Media Has Exposed Itself Worse Than Jeffrey Toobin

Before getting to Colonel Kurt, here are a couple of Regime Media stories:

USAToday announces that it was the gun store's fault that Hunter Biden illegally bought his Cocaine Gun.

Gannett's flagship newspaper USA TODAY claims in a recent story that if a Delaware gun shop had "done its job" in 2018, Hunter Biden would never have been able to illegally purchase the .38 Special Colt Cobra revolver, which led to his three felony convictions.
"By law, handguns can be sold by shops only to state residents, who must provide a government-issued proof of residency, and Biden was not a legal resident of Delaware in 2018. Instead, he offered only a passport, with his name and birthdate," USA TODAY reporter Nick Penzenstadler wrote in the story, which was titled: "Hunter Biden's gun case was spurred by an ATF form. The shop violated federal law."
The same allegations were first brought up in court by Hunter Biden's defense team, but Judge Maryellen Noreika correctly pointed out that the gun shop was not on trial.
Penzenstadler never mentions in his story that federal law requires the firearm purchaser to present valid identification and to be truthful on the ATF Form 4473, which Hunter Biden certainly was not. He concealed his drug addiction when asked "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?" At the time, Hunter Biden was smoking crack cocaine nearly every 15 minutes, according to courtroom testimony presented during his trial.

Now that is what you call "a hot take."

CNN will cut "about 100 jobs" in a "major overhaul." I'll go right ahead and read "about a hundred jobs" as "more than a hundred jobs," because of course that's what they mean.

News outlet CNN will cut about 100 jobs as part of a plan to consolidate news operations and bolster its digital business, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters on Wednesday.
CNN will merge its news-gathering and digital news teams, invest in video operations and launch pay-per-view news products, CNN Worldwide CEO Mark Thompson told staff in the memo.
"We are building a billion dollar+ digital business of the future," he said in the memo.

You are building your own tomb.

Rachel Maddow defamed a doctor on the air, accusing him of performing "mass hysterectomies" at shelters for illegal aliens. She's being sued for $30 miliion.

NBCUniversal is headed for trial after a judge ruled in favor of a Georgia doctor who MSNBC's biggest stars accused of performing "mass hysterectomies" on women at a Trump-era immigration facility in Georgia. The judge ruled that Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, and Chris Hayes made "verifiably false" statements about the doctor, who is suing NBC for $30 million.
The discovery process in the lawsuit, which has received little attention, has drawn back the curtain on the inner workings of MSNBC, revealing how the liberal cable network works hand in hand with NBC News, which seeks to portray itself as nonpartisan. NBCUniversal's standards department reviewed and approved the reporting on the Georgia doctor, before it was published on NBCNews.com and then broadcast on MSNBC programs. The NBC News correspondents, Jacob Soboroff and Julia Ainsley, worked closely with a standards executive during their reporting. Soboroff is also an MSNBC correspondent.
Furthermore, Maddow--who was deposed for the lawsuit--and Hayes were personally involved in the off-camera vetting and editorial conversations around the segment to an extent that can be unusual for on-camera hosts.
Maddow is reportedly paid about $30 million a year by NBCUniversal to host her show one evening a week and work on longer-range projects.
In her ruling last month, the judge, Lisa Godbey Wood of the Southern District of Georgia, found that Maddow, Hayes, and Wallace made 39 "verifiably false" allegations about Mahendra Amin, a gynecologist who treated detainees at a Georgia Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.
A nurse at the facility had made a whistleblower complaint alleging that Amin was performing "mass hysterectomies," many of which were medically unnecessary, and that he was known as "the uterus collector." The nurse's claims, which she admitted were based on hearsay, were later found to be false.

This is the most incredible of all stories: ABC "News" is "livid" that Clinton Spokesman and Lifetime Democrat Operator George Stephanopolous said that Biden was unfit to continue as president when asked by a guy on the street for his opinion.

ABC "News" is claiming their brand is damaged by this first, one-time/only-time expression of George Stephanopolous' political bias.

This is the first time! He's never been cautioned before, not when he's yelling Republicans off his "news" set.

But now, only when he expresses an opinion in the fight between different factions of the Democrat Party is his objectivity in question:

Tom Bevan
@TomBevanRCP
"ABC bosses were concerned the veteran broadcaster had expressed a private opinion that would fatally undermine his appearance of objectivity."
'She was furious that someone of George's experience and status would compromise the news division's impartiality, and subject it to unnecessary and embarrassing headlines."
She's aware they employ Jon Karl, right?

Kurt Schlichter says that both wings of the Democrat-Media Party are now proven to be remorseless liars.

Let's put aside the crumbling ruins of the Democratic Party to celebrate, by making the rubble bounce, the total destruction of any residual credibility in the regime media. The regime media minions called in a napalm airstrike on their own position, and the fireball is rising. It's beautiful, man.
...

We conservatives knew about [Biden's obvious demenia]. We in the conservative media have been talking about his senility for years. I have certainly done my part. Do a Google search using the terms "Kurt Schlichter Townhall dementia Biden" and you get countless columns pointing out that this guy was a shambling golem since before he ever even allegedly won the presidency. How did we knuckle-dragging right-wing extremists manage to discover something all the geniuses of the regime media somehow overlooked? We conservative media types didn't attend the University of College's prestigious Media Matters School of Journalisming. They all did. That's how they got their gigs at the New York Times, the Washington Post, NBC News, and all those other paragons of reporting excellence that didn't manage to notice that Joe Biden was perpetually on the verge of soiling himself in public. How could they fail to ferret out this important information? Obviously, they weren't looking. Did they somehow believe that because the right-wing media had identified an issue that they couldn't look into it? Yes! We just watched over the last month as the regime media dismissed our observations of reality as a "cheap fake" conspiracy theory. Or, even more embarrassingly, did they actually believe the lies the Biden courtiers told them? "It's a stutter, and if you say anything about it, you are a right-wing racist!"
There is no good outcome for them. There is only a good outcome for us, assuming our enemies around the world don't use the incompetence of the White House as an excuse to nuke us. As I have said many times before, we are not the target of these revelations. All these revelations do is confirm what we've known through all the various regime media lie-cycles over the past decade. Remember the Russiagate lie? They gave each other Pulitzers over that one. Remember how Covid wasn't brewed up in a Wuhan lab, and to so say it was anything but contagious pangolins was racist? Remember how Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation -- 51 bureaucratic hacks said so, dammit!

Read the whole thing.

Mark Judge says to begin its long, long road to recovery after years of scandal, abuse, and remorseless lying, the media has to learn to apologize when it lies instead of just smearing anyone who noticed their lies as racists.

He quotes the Washington Post's kid-gloves "media critic" Erik Wemple:

News organizations, when they put out these big stories, they put their soul into these pieces. And when they turn out to be [expletive] up, they can never, ever -- it takes them forever to come to grips with it. So people on the outside say, "Why can't you just admit this is wrong?" No, no! We sweated over this. We edited this five times. It went through 15 layers. We lawyered it. There is this emotional attachment to the work.
When news organizations drag their heels -- take the [fake] gang rape story with Rolling Stone at UVA -- it took them months or years [to admit it was false]. They finally had to commission an investigation.
I think that is what is common to most media crises. It's not just the first mistake. It's the refusal, the stubborn resistance to change or to correct. Editors will say, "When we make a mistake we'll correct it," but that's just not often the case.

Often? It's always the case -- the bigger the lie, the more absolutely the media will refuse to correct it.

Judge:

Journalists are now like active alcoholics who simply will not admit to any wrongdoing -- or even that they have a problem. The first drink was Watergate. The 1970s scandal that drove Richard Nixon from office was a great party for the press. The atmosphere in the media and on the Left was glamorous, filling writers with a sense of intoxicated invincibility.
For the past 50 years, the press have been trying to replicate the buzz from that time. Journalism is no longer a way to convey news from your community to the masses. It's a means to destroy someone powerful and become a celebrity. Just as an alcoholic will start to cut ethical corners and need more and more booze for less and less effect, reporters post-Watergate became sloppy and even disinterested in facts. Mistakes and lies became more and more common.
Apologize? Forget it. They can't even admit they have a problem.

The media absolutely refuses to correct, let alone apologize for, the many, many hoaxes they have been active, willing operatives in:

They will correct minor errors like mistating a birthdate or an official's exact title.

But the "51 experts" hoax?

The Russiagate hoax?

The "hands up, don't shoot" hoax?

The "very fine people" hoax?

Even in the midst of their current hoax, the Biden Is Sharp as a Tack and Any Videos That Suggest Otherwise Hoax, they refuse to retract and apologize. They just claim "our sources lied to us, we're the real victims here."

As I always say, the media campaigns to deplatform and de-bank competitor news sources that question them. They claim we're spreading "dangerous disinformation" and they lobby for social media companies to ban us, and other corporations to flatly refuse to advertise with us.

When we point out they spread more disinformation than anyone else, they always say the same thing:

"When we make a 'mistake,' we are the first to correct it."

This is a lie. They do correct their actual mistakes, but they never correct the deliberate propganda hoaxes they spread with full knowlege that they're untrue.

So should they all be deplatformed? Shouldn't all advertisers be warned by front-companies of the US government that no one should advertise on these disinformation platforms?

By having Clooney do the deed, he both (a) kept his hands clean just in case, and (b) is able to say he is not responsible in case Joe loses.

Using some of the recent 2nd amendment rulings, this makes a lot of sense. Most of the Founders has large farms, and made a shit-ton of liquor, as did many people of the time. Restricting that shit was not an expectation of government. Taxing it, maybe, although even that was a little touchy (see also, Whiskey Rebellion).

68 58 Theory

Obama sent Clooney to throw Biden under the bus because Obama did not want to be on the losing team, and did not want to have to hear "well, we backed Joe because Obama said to."

By having Clooney do the deed, he both (a) kept his hands clean just in case, and (b) is able to say he is not responsible in case Joe loses.

If I remember correctly, Obama didn't endorse Biden until after Super Tuesday, even after everyone else had dropped out so that he could have a clean shot at beating Bernie, the only Democrat with any kind of populist support, it seems.

He always leads from behind. He thinks he's some kind of genius kingmaker. He can never get his king made. He's actually something of a joke. His machinations probably always make situations worse.

If only Rachel herself was being sued for $30mil. As far as I can tell it's $30mil against NBC, with Nicole Wallace, Chris Hayes, and Rachel Maddow among others being named. $30mil against NBCUniversal is toothpicks. I'd rather see those scamming reporters and anchors required to do an on-air confession, retraction, self-flagellation, apology, etc.

I sorta get the reasons why. Distilling hard liquor is dangerous. If you don't know what you're doing -- or if you do know what you're doing and fuck it up anyway -- you can cause a big fire or explosion. Making beer and wine isn't nearly as dangerous.

100 CNN and Jake Tapper are also in the middle of a lawsuit for $1B in damages for defaming a guy who was evacuating people from Afghanistan. The discovery is pretty bad for CNN with producers and such stating they were going to take the guy out so the actual malice standard looks like a layup. In the MSNBC case I haven't seen necessarily malicious internal texts and emails talked about but there's plenty to show reckless disregard for the truth based on the anchors, reporters, and producers all admitting to each other that they didn't believe the story but ran it anyway.

"The media isn't just a tool to further narrative propaganda. It is the Left's tool specifically."

You can quote me on that. To suggest that corrections (or the actual first printing of a piece) is reflective of anything other than ideological narrative is naive. Perhaps it used to be that way, but no more. There is no connection or investment in the story. There is connection and investment in approved narratives. These people don't mislead due to fallibility . They mislead on purpose, and they fail to correct those misdirections so as to gain the maximum advantage of their purposeful placement.

Well that'll never happen. The disparity in power between "new" media and that of the regime gaurantees it.
It's too much at this point to even hope for a near level playing field. We've gone the way of the Soviets, where Pravda and Tass say what they're told to say and the public pretends to believe them but gets their news from pamphlets passed around the local drinking holes.

Look how casually we toss around the term Kremlinology to describe what might be happening behind the scenes in politics. Literally hundreds of people in DC know, yet the press won't say, the regime won't say, and the pundits guess and make bank on their guesses if they're approved party members who get to pontificate for dollars on the government news shows.

The left has been saying that for decades, because if you shared a bed with a man-even though he was on the travelling law circuit and quite common at the time to share a bed when hotels were not as common as they are now-it must mean he was gay. Even some gay man dedunked this idea, but since it's currently hip to be gay they'll push laong this story.

I don't drink, but I've watched those videos out of curiosity.

biden's biggest failure in the debate wasn't his obvious dementia, it was not calling Trump names and mocking Trump.

Tl;dr a lot of khans dying young of alcohol poisoning. It was not wholly ethanol poisoning.
Posted by: Walter White

I think you have it backwards. When you freeze alcohol, the water freezes first, so you can scrape it out. It's called freeze distillation or "jacking". Applejack is a traditional American colonial beverage...take hard apple cider, leave it outside in a barrel over winter, and keep scraping out the ice. Gets stronger, sweeter and more concentrated every time.

Also, the heads and tails filtered off during regular distillation are left in, so it was legendary for horrible hangovers if overindulged in...called applejack palsy, in fact.

234 Maybe it is actually happening:

“The super friends are assembling,” a House Democrat told Politico. “There’s a group of people who are going to go make their case to whomever they can get to at the White House that he needs to step aside and we’re going to get our asses kicked if he doesn’t.”

The plan would see a group of Biden’s oldest and most senior Democratic colleagues come together to make a definitive statement on behalf of the party that it would be damaging if the president were to continue. It is hoped that team would include Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, President Pro Tempore Patty Murray, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC).

The alleged showdown would end the perception that Democratic leaders are divided about whether Biden, 81, can serve as president for another four years."

They didn't rig it for Joe. They kept trying to push him out. Obama telling him not to run. Backing Kamala who was supposed to deliver the killshot by calling him a racist at the first debate. Backing every single other candidate with a blip in the news cycle after Kamala went down in flames because of one comment from Tulsi. They went Kamala to Beto to Warren to Buttigieg (who "won" Iowa).

Biden just stuck around in the second tier (the only one in the first tier was Bernie) because he was Obama's VP and had name recognition, sitting there with 25% pretty consistently.

And then the establishment decided Biden was better than Bernie around Super Tuesday, so they got everyone else to drop.

She decided to force the issue. Scrawling 'NO' in large letters on her stomach with a black marker pen, the former part-time model marched into the room where they were meeting in her bikini."

"The identification document presented by the transferee must have a photograph of the transferee, as well as the transferee’s name, residence address, and date of birth. The identification document must also be valid (e.g., unexpired) and have been issued by a governmental entity for the purpose of identification of individuals."

A combination of government issued documents may be used to meet the requirements of an identification document. For example, a passport which contains the name, date of birth, and photograph of the holder may be combined with a voter or vehicle registration card containing the residence address of the transferee in order to comply with the identification document requirements.

Kamala got that glowing NYT profile in January 2019 for a reason, and it wasn't because the establishment was iffy on her.

I also suspect that Clyburn's influence is constantly overstated.

Think, which is more likely: Black Democrats in SC voted for Obama's VP because he was Obama's VP or they voted for him because Clyburn told them it was okay?

I don't think he and his producer ever admited they were conned. At best, he once claimed "if we knew they weren't (real), we wouldn't have used them", and later claimed the story was still truthy-enough.

The fakes came from Rather's daughter. So he wasn't conned in the least. He knew they were fake from before he presented them to the public.

And by the way when O'Keefe was given Ashley Biden's diary he sat on it trying to prove it was real. Note Rather just went straight to broadcasting it as soon as his daughter gave it to him.

Certainly seemed like it, minus the now-unaffordable apostrophe, which was attributed to Bidenomics.

It contains logarithmic scales and much use of pi.

373 If I were ranking the greatness of the founding fathers (they were all great…. But some more than others) I’d have John Adams ahead of Thomas Jefferson….. Jefferson was a much better politician and writer but Adams was a key intellectual driver of the revolution…. Alex Hamilton greater than both and of course George was head and shoulders above all the greats

374 A good prosecutor would take notice and find ways to test his self control.
I'd find a way to have him lunging at me while spitting explitives. It's a good look, and juries love defendants who do that.

She should give him a toy gun to hold and see how long he can avoid aiming it at her and shooting.

377 Can I be head of NASA? I have a list of leftards I know that I want to offer a trip to the stars. Specifically, the surface of our star.

Too expensive. It is suprisingly hard to hit the sun despite its size and pull. You need to dump the entire earth's orbital velocity somehow.

Now you could burn them up in Earth's atmosphere by friction, that's much cheaper.

378 Re: J.D. Vance:

He insulted Trump several times in 2016 prior to Trump's election.

How did YOU feel about Trump when you first noticed he was running for POTUS?

I suspected him of being a NYC liberal DEM, based on his many contributions to Democrats & his amicable ties to the Clintons. So I was wrong. Boy, was I wrong! (Go big or go home, right?)

Vance has acknowledged many times that he was mistaken about Trump 8 years ago. So has Rubio.

Unless you loved Trump from the gitgo, cut Vance & Rubio some slack.

379 That's what cracks me up about today's 'yutes' being into vinyl albums.

Analog, recorded digital, pressed to analog again.

Might as well just have a CD and be done with it.

A co-worker used to get Audiophile magazine just to laugh about the absurd "science" they backed as making a huge difference....like putting a quarter on a speaker, or coloring the rim of a CD.

A funny one was a reviewer who was detecting these tiny differences in the sound due to different cables but didn't notice one of his channels was burnt out.

380 Was John Adams fuming because Franklin was in the buff or just because Adams could often be "Obnoxious and disliked."

Actually, I like John Adams.

Adams felt Franklin's naked air baths and nudity was immoral. Pretty much said as much to Congress via delegation letters.

381 How did YOU feel about Trump when you first noticed he was running for POTUS?

I felt like we were saved. And so did my late father. Who, unfortunately, passed a few months before Trump won. I was all in, from the escalator. As was my awesome dad.

Thanks; I think that's funny. I was aware that Adams thought Franklin's morals were loose. I just wasn't aware of the dislike for his naked air baths.

387 After exploring a handful of the blog posts on your web
page, I really like your technique of blogging.

I saved it to my bookmark webpage list and will be checking back in the near future.
Take a look at my web site as well and tell me your opinion.
