#JournalismIsDead

🌴Jeff🌴<p>I continue to see MSM news reporting and showing that Portland is NOT the war-zone portrayed by the Orange Sphincter and the Butt Crust that serves him. But NEVER any reporting on why the rapist/pedophile is doing this and why so many are capitulating that lie. <a class="hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23JournalismIsDead" target="_blank">#JournalismIsDead</a> <a class="hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MAGAIsADisease" target="_blank">#MAGAIsADisease</a></p>

Esmie<p>I honestly can't even put into words how disappointed I am in mainstream media right now 😤 They've completely failed us during this slide toward authoritarianism.
