Roger Kimball, in his February 11 piece in American Greatness, "The Forgotten Truth of War," speaks for tens of millions of Americans -- on the subject of the media (and other matters):
China is rattling its sabers, girding its metaphorical loins, moving various bits of its economy to a war footing. According to China observers like Gordon Chang, the signs are “unmistakable” that it is preparing for war. That was the not-so-hidden subtext of last week’s adventure, the Chinese surveillance balloon that was allowed to traverse the entire continental United States before being shot down.
You wouldn’t really know this from the vicious, disgusting, and mendacious media that will lie about anything in order to bolster the regime narrative. They lied about Trump and Russia and about Trump and his call to the Ukrainian president back in 2020. They lied about the origins of COVID and about how best to handle and treat COVID. They lied about the 2020 election and that black thug who died of a fentanyl overdose in Minneapolis while resisting arrest.
They lie about everything. I acknowledge that sometimes it is not quite fair to say that they are mendacious. Sometimes they are merely vicious, disgusting, and ignorant, but it amounts to the same thing.
Make that an additional three cheers for Edior Kimball.Roger Kimball, in his February 11 piece in American Greatness, "The Forgotten Truth of War," speaks for tens of millions of Americans -- on the subject of the media (and other matters):
