“The mainstream media has become so biased in recent years that President Donald Trump popularized the phrase ‘fake news’ and Elon Musk, the wealthiest man in the world, posts rants about them almost daily on his X platform. Both have sued the media for libel or defamation. But little has changed; outside of some pushback at a few publications like The Washington Post and Los Angeles Times due to their publishers, the mainstream media is doubling down with the slant and partisan bias …. the AP Stylebook Orwellianly dictates what words and phrases mainstream journalists must use, such as ‘election denier’ and ‘insurrection’ to refer to J6, so there is no way around that built-in bias. Mainstream journalists are required to follow that style, and even the few newspapers like The New York Times which have their own style guides mostly copy the AP Stylebook.” (03/17/25)
