You may or may not be aware that The Richardson Post has had its income from advertising removed by Google (remember “Don’t be Evil”?).
We suspect that the Anti Defamation League, a Jewish advocacy group with an annual income north of US$70million and its “Stop Hate for Profit” campaign is to blame.
Why they think our articles contain “misinformation” and “hate” is anyone’s guess. Perhaps they think that The Richardson Post just isn’t kosher?
Meanwhile, The New York Times has just been caught peddling disinformation shamelessly for years.
Somehow, I doubt that the ADL will be taking the Sulzberger family to task. Maybe I’m wrong.
Anyhow, read the following article from Zero Hedge and thank your lucky stars that you aren’t silly enough to think that the mainstream media has any interest in telling the truth.
Meanwhile, Nurse Ratched has gone on holiday so be prepared for technical SNAFUs of epic proportions. Read on for the full article.
The Columbia Journalism Review (CJR) has issued a scathing indictment of the New York Times for yellow journalism during the Trump-Russia saga.
In short, the hyper-partisan ‘paper of record’ was operating in bad faith.
It’s wasn’t just the Times either. CJR’s findings accurately reflect what most objective thinkers have known this whole time – they were all operating in bad faith.
That said, CJR aimed the majority of criticism towards the NYT.
“No narrative did more to shape Trump’s relations with the press than Russiagate. The story, which included the Steele dossier and the Mueller report among other totemic moments, resulted in Pulitzer Prizes as well as embarrassing retractions and damaged careers,” wrote CJR executive editor Kype Pope in an editor’s note.
“That would prove to be more than an understatement,” he continued. “But neither Baquet nor his successor, nor any of the paper’s reporters, would offer anything like a postmortem of the paper’s Trump-Russia saga, unlike the examination the Times did of its coverage before the Iraq War.”
According to Gerth, the Times destroyed its credibility outside of its “own bubble.”
What’s more, the Times appeared to legitimize former British spy, Christopher Steele, who was indirectly paid by the Clinton campaign to fabricate the infamous ‘dossier’ that so much of the Russiagate coverage – and the DOJ’s sham investigation, was based on.
In closing, Gerth concluded that “the erosion of journalistic norms and the media’s own lack of transparency about its work” is responsible for the broad distrust in the media.
No kidding.
“In January 2018, for example, the New York Times ignored a publicly available document showing that the FBI’s lead investigator didn’t think, after ten months of inquiry into possible Trump-Russia ties, that there was much there. This omission disserved Times readers. The paper says its reporting was thorough and ‘in line with our editorial standards,” wrote Gerth. “Another axiom of journalism that was sometimes neglected in the Trump-Russia coverage was the failure to seek and reflect comment from people who are the subject of serious criticism. The Times guidelines call it a ‘special obligation.’ Yet in stories by the Times involving such disparate figures as Joseph Mifsud (the Maltese academic who supposedly started the whole FBI inquiry), Christopher Steele (the former British spy who authored the dossier), and Konstantin Kilimnik (the consultant cited by some as the best evidence of collusion between Russia and Trump), the paper’s reporters failed to include comment from the person being criticized.“
