Hard to get the media to be the vaccine when they are addicted to being the superspreader because the virus is so good for the corporate bottom line.

While the mainstream media is doing all those things they should also be giving a lot of attention to reports on the strength of the US economy like this one from the not liberal Economist:

“The American economy has left other rich countries in the dust. Expect that to continue”

Brett Baier tried to trap Harris into talking about Biden’s economy. He and other journalists know that the economy has been and still is amazingly strong, much stronger than any other country’s and that inflation is under control. He knows that inflation was a global phenomenon caused by the pandemic and Russia’s war on Ukraine and that US inflation was not higher than that of other countries. He also knows that by ignoring all the positive news about our economic growth, booming job market, and wages outpacing inflation for over a year and with the highest growth for low income Americans the media has misled the American public and convinced them the economy is bad.

Baier and his ilk also understand that because of the media’s malpractice Harris can’t say praise the Biden economy or sat she will continue his economic approach — strengthening the middle class. It’s as if we have gone through the looking glass.
