"Seek truth from facts." -- Deng Xiaoping. Fact: Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine, killing more than 100,000 people. Narrative: It's NATO's fault he sent-in the soldiers. Fact: Bill Clinton had sex with an intern and then perjured himself in a civil suit about sexual harassment. Narrative: It's a vast right wing conspiracy. Fact: Donald Trump attempted to stop the approval of Joe Biden's election by inciting a riot on January 6. Narrative: The rioters did nothing wrong -- just misguided tourists. And Trump won the election anyway. The facts are the context that the Press sometimes has trouble covering. Perhaps the Post should show the relevant facts in bold and the talk in italic. Maybe telling the truth clearly would help them to become economically viable.
Formerly journalist, journalism teacher, more. Now working to help those who are trying to save democracy and, by extension, freedom of expression.
Big Journalism is doing back-flip contortions to help the Trump camp explain away his latest anti-democracy vows. This Washington Post story (screenshot below, with alt-text of headline/deck) is an example of offering "both sides" (and even an attempt at nuance). Look at the context, say the apologists. Yes, do that, but look at the real context: the torrent of anti-democracy authoritarianism Trump has spewed for years. That makes it perfectly clear what Trump was getting at. On this topic, he doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Don't let him and his apparatchiks, or their media enablers, gaslight you.
