Ed Morrissey: Media Doubles Down on Corrupt

View descriptionShare

The Columbia Journalism Review issued a lengthy and devastating condemnation of mainstream media last week, deconstructing all of the ways in which news outlets failed in the Russia-collusion hoax. It started with the Steele Dossier, a document that Bob Woodward prophetically called “a garbage document” at the time, but establishment media embraced for two years or more.

Only after the futility of Robert Mueller’s probe did these outlets admit their error—and not universally. The New York Times refuses to this day to account for its failures, insisting that they got it right all along.

At the same time this review came out, the media elite participated in a Cronkite Media Lab symposium to declare that “objectivity has to go.” Instead, the media pledged to serve their own “identity, life experiences, and cultural contexts.”

In other words, the media plans to double down on its corrupt approach to reporting news. The CJR report notes that media credibility is at an all-time low. Expect it to get even lower with current leadership.
