Mainstream Media

A water drop and ripples

The media has the power to rewrite reality.

By Justin Katz | November 12, 2021 |

It shows you the power of the mainstream media to dictate what world people think they live in that even paying as much attention to this stuff as I do, I missed the second of three election-related stories the mainstream media downplayed, according to Ben Johnson: The legacy media celebrated India Walton, a self-described socialist…

Reminder: unvaccinated employees are people with families, obligations, and responsibilities.

By Justin Katz | November 11, 2021 |

The headline on Alexa Gagosz’s Boston Globe article conveys the news: “R.I.’s state-run Eleanor Slater Hospital replaces unvaccinated staff.”  The text feels somehow inappropriately clinical, though, given the content: State-run Eleanor Slater Hospital has received just six vaccinated nurses to help replace the remaining unvaccinated staff. The nurses, who arrived on Wednesday, are believed to have…

A water drop and ripples

Progressive activists wanted for false flag operations.

By Justin Katz | November 3, 2021 |

Things are getting humorous (and obvious) out there.  Over the past few days, we’ve all had a good laugh at the Democrat activists (one of them Black) who dressed up as white supremacists to try to tar Virginia Republican Glenn Youngkin.  More recently, I noticed local Democrats in Rhode Island gleefully fixating on the story…

The Oath Keepers hack is what progressives want for all of us.

By Justin Katz | October 6, 2021 |

One needn’t endorse or repudiate the Oath Keepers organization to observe that the hack and release of its internal communications raises disturbing questions at a time when state and federal government agencies are seeking more of a view into private donor lists and personal bank accounts: The emails were obtained by BuzzFeed News after an…

We need to get our heads around the evolving tech-radical machine.

By Justin Katz | October 5, 2021 |

The profundity of the situation didn’t come home to me until I was nearly done researching and writing this article for Accuracy in Media.  I set out to shed some light on the partisan donations of NowThis News founder Kenneth Lerer (which the article does), but what I started to see in that light was this: While his…

A water drop and ripples

It’s the same ol’ SNL under Biden.

By Justin Katz | October 4, 2021 |

When I read this Daily Wire article by Joseph Curl, I was expecting to find a surprising change of tone by Saturday Night Live — one that treated our eminently mockable politicians as such.  Honestly, I don’t know what Curl was watching. Granted, I didn’t get through the whole clip, but the first two-thirds remained standard…

The “mystery” of violent crime hides the probable cause in Rhode Island.

By Justin Katz | September 30, 2021 |

The mainstream media — represented for this post by Brian Amaral of the Boston Globe — may not know what is to blame for the increase in violent crime across the country, but they sure know who: In 2019, a Rhode Island man released from a life crack-dealing sentence under the First Step Act, a criminal justice reform…

The line of youth propaganda from MTV News to NowThis.

By Justin Katz | September 23, 2021 |

The connections one discovers while looking into emerging powerful organizations are intriguing.  NowThis is an online media company creating short, sharable news videos.  It’s clear that the target is a younger audience, and it’s also obvious that NowThis is a mainstream organization, which is to say, left-wing Democrat. When I began looking at the political donations of…
