I do wish the Right (or whatever the f&^* Cerno is at this hour; hard to keep track..) would drop this meme that there was such a thing called & #39;The Objective Media.& #39;

Daniel Defoe founded "journalism.txt", and he was a gin-soaked, partisan hired gun. Take note. https://twitter.com/Cernovich/status/1325619420295622656">https://twitter.com/Cernovich...

The Fleet Street press, to their credit, still acknowledge that heritage, proudly answering to the moniker "hack", for example, and often reveling in dissolution...Their papers also wouldn& #39;t dare place something like & #39;All the News that& #39;s Fit to Print& #39; or & #39;Democracy Dies in

Darkness& #39; on their mastheads... They& #39;re partisan, as is every newspaper worth its ink. It& #39;s best we all grow up and get used to it. No one opens the Daily Mail wondering why there& #39;s no film reviews from a trans BME M2F critic criticizing the latest HBO series for arcane offenses

just as no one opens the Guardian wondering why there aren& #39;t any banner headlines about men of South Asian descent committing a crime of one sort or another....

And frankly, the whole media landscape is far more honest for that, IMO... Everyone knows where that stand.

Objectivity, forsooth! There& #39;s no such thing. Give it up. And the American Right pretending that there is such a thing--and that the US press corps by implication ought to strive for it--is just another example of what useless, hopeless Whigs they are....
