For years, we’ve watched mainstream media lie to our faces. They twist facts. They push their liberal agenda. And they treat Republican leaders like garbage. We’ve all felt it – that burning frustration as viewers flee these networks in droves. But here’s what’s different now: the White House is finally done playing nice with these so-called journalists.
CBS News used to be a trusted name in American journalism. Remember those days? Now they’re drowning in scandals that would destroy any conservative outlet overnight. From their shady editing of interviews to hosts pushing what diplomats literally call “stupid” narratives, the network has hit rock bottom. And guess what? Even the White House can’t pretend it’s not happening anymore.
The latest blow-up came during a Daily Caller interview – and boy, did things get spicy. After talking about his settlement with CBS (remember their sketchy editing of Kamala’s “60 Minutes” interview?), Trump turned to one CBS host who’s become the poster child for biased coverage.
From ‘The Daily Caller’:
Trump then invoked Brennan, saying, “The woman on the ‘Face the Nation’ is so bad.” He turned to Leavitt, who was present during the interview, and asked, “What do you think of her?” “She’s stupid. You can put that on the record,” Leavitt said. “She’s nasty,” Trump added.
A Pattern of Confrontation
This wasn’t just Trump venting. Secretary of State Marco Rubio got the same treatment on “Face the Nation.” Brennan tried pushing some fairy tale about European leaders coming to save Zelenskyy from being “bullied.” Seriously? Rubio shut her down fast, calling it “such a stupid media narrative.” He had to waste precious airtime fixing her made-up story instead of talking about actual policy.
Trump praised Rubio for handling the situation, saying he appears on the show often “because he’s good and he’s smart.” Think about that for a second. Conservative leaders have to constantly fight fake narratives just to discuss basic policy. Can you imagine if Fox News hosts treated Democrats this way? The media would lose their minds!
The bigger picture makes this even worse. CBS just settled with Trump over election interference claims. They got caught red-handed editing political interviews to help Democrats. Norah O’Donnell bailed from “CBS Evening News” as ratings tanked. And we’re supposed to trust these people to tell us the truth?
The Cost of Credibility
What we’re seeing isn’t just political fighting – it’s the death of trust between mainstream media and half of America. When White House officials call out journalists by name, when Cabinet members spend half their interviews correcting lies, and when networks pay settlements for their shady editing, journalism itself is dying. But here’s the thing we all know: these reporters aren’t really journalists anymore. They’re Democrat activists with press badges.
This new era might make some old-school Republicans uncomfortable – they’re used to being polite while getting attacked. But for millions of us who’ve felt lied to by these “objective” reporters? Hearing our leaders finally tell it like it is – using real talk, not political speak – proves what we’ve known all along. We weren’t crazy. The media really was out to get us.
