In today’s political climate, it’s become increasingly obvious that the liberal media has a double standard when it comes to how they view Republicans and Democrats.
This double standard was on full display recently on PBS’ Amanpour & Co., when host Michel Martin asked Susan Glasser of The New Yorker about the various groups of Republicans.
Martin used loaded labels like “bomb throwers,” “fringe,” and “ultra-MAGA,” while Glasser responded by arguing that the debate over Kevin McCarthy was more about tactics than ideology. But then Glasser labeled all House Republicans as “extremely conservative” and “not your grandfather’s Republican party.”
On the other hand, when Martin asked about the Democrats, Glasser simply said that the Democrats would use the “excesses” of the Republicans as a political opportunity to “showcase their political argument” heading into 2024. No loaded labels. No harsh criticisms. No mention of the party’s “extreme” views.
It’s clear that the liberal media has a clear agenda when it comes to how they view the two major political parties in the United States. They paint Republicans as “extreme” and Democrats as the reasonable centrists.
But what the liberal media isn’t telling us is that the Democratic Party under Joe Biden has been anything but reasonable. From their proposed $2 trillion infrastructure package to their proposed tax hikes, they are pushing a far-left agenda that would put the United States in a financial bind for years to come.
It’s time for the liberal media to start holding Democrats accountable for their views and stop painting them as the reasonable centrists. We need more unbiased reporting that shows both sides of the aisle in an accurate light. We should all be able to trust the media to report the truth, not just their political agenda.
PBS, which is funded by taxpayers, should also be held accountable for their biased reporting. We should not have to pay for this kind of one-sided reporting. We deserve better.
Can you believe we are all forced to pay for this crap? Maybe PBS, NPR, and the rest of the liberal news media that receives public funding need to have their checks cut by the DNC and NOT the taxpayers.
