Media Malfeasance

Tuesday, July 7, 2020

By Gary Bauer

I have reviewed more media accounts of the president's speech last week at Mount Rushmore. Next to the vile Charlottesville hoax, this has been one of worst examples of the media blatantly lying about what the president said. 

Not only did virtually every major media outlet, except for Fox News, twist the president's remarks, multiple politicians lied through their teeth without any interviewer factchecking them. 

For example, one progressive senator claimed that the president "spent more time worried about honoring dead Confederates" than anything else. Trump never mentioned Confederate generals in his speech!

Again, if you missed the president's address at Mount Rushmore, I encourage you to watch it here. It was a rousing defense of America, and nothing at all like what the media are describing.
