Still Dishonest After All These Years: The New York Times

The New York Times recently published an article and an accompanying picture showing a child so emaciated that his spine is rippling through the back of his skin. The article claimed that Israel intentionally is starving Palestinians, particularly Palestinian children.

In truth, the young child had a pre-existing condition, apparently cerebal palsy. This was unrelated to the conflict with Israel. Curiously, the boy’s mother and brother were of normal weight and appeared healthy. The Times subsequently had to admit the “error.” 

No Concern for Truth 

Here is the part that they chose to ignore: Israelis have prepared hundreds of thousands of meals for Palestinians who are caught in the treacherous combat between Israel and Hamas. Did the Times deign to report on that, or simply offer more lies? Hamas steals food and supplies and, when Palestinians attempt to flee, Hamas shoots them and then blames Israel. 

If Times editors had any dignity they’d strive to publish accurate articles, especially after deceiving America and the world for four years about the health and capabilities of Joe Biden. They’d feel ashamed about perpetually pushing the Trump ‘Russiagate story’ that has been thoroughly disproven

Alas, Times editors have no concern about whether or not they’re being truthful, except when they’re caught. Compare, for instance, their treatment of the presidential offspring. The Times forsook countless possible stories on the veracity of Hunter Biden's laptop, drug abuse, virulent racism, sexual escapades, pay-for-play schemes, and shady deals. Any Trump offspring involved in 1% of Hunter's transgressions would yield endless coverage

Terror at the Top 

In the last 95 years has anything changed at the alleged newspaper of record? In 1932 and 1933, the Joseph Stalin-loving Times deliberately buried the news of the “Terror-Famine,” which killed at least 3.9 million Ukrainians, but perhaps as many as 7.0 million, equal to one in eight Ukrainians, or possibly one in four. 

Times editors were well aware that the famine was orchestrated by Stain who forbade aid shipments, confiscated household food items, and restricted of the mobility of Ukrainian citizens. And they collected and still retain Pulitzer Prizes for their fraudulent journalism. 

Why did Stalin vanquish "the world's breadbasket"? He sought to punish the independence-minded Ukrainians, quash any threats to his totalitarian regime, and crush Ukraine's small farms in favor of Soviet state-run collectives. Stalin lost no sleep over the legions of emaciated bodies, near death, scratching for any morsel of food they could find. Today’s Times editors lose no sleep over lying about Israeli food operations. 

‘Mainstream' and Maniacal 

Times editors -- and only far Leftists are hired -- do not care who is hurt by their lies as long as socialist/Marxist/communist ideology prevails on earth. Propping up the Biden Administration and disparaging both Trump Administrations is automatic.

One hundred years from now, will the falsehoods and hoaxes which the fakestream media machine perpetrates daily continue to dominate public discourse? Will their maniacal ideology be revealed by some new form of news and information dissemination, or by a fundamental shift in media coverage? 

How damaging their slanted news coverage has been to global humanity is difficult to fathom. What’s more, the fakestream press has skillfully held a news and information monopoly for so long that their facade is not even remotely understood by the multi-millions under its spell. 

A Stranglehold for the Ages 

Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, and other dolts in Congress will readily appear on TV today and spew lies about Russiagate, even after years of debunking. They play the ‘talking head' game with sympathetic hosts and hold sway over those who don't know how to discern out the truth. Happily, Schiff and company are about to face justice. 

The stranglehold which the Left and the fakestream media have on humanity, however, raises philosophical questions. Why does so much of the world still fall for manufactured and manipulated news despite all the information sources that exist today? 

How can people still be relying on CNN or MSNBC or, worse, the nightly news on ABC, NBC? How often does CBS have to be caught doctoring the news only to be exposed and then, within days, having learned nothing, revert to subterfuge?

Unfazed by Their Exposed Lies 

In the UK, major news publications openly advocate a position, Left or Right, and do not play ‘let's pretend.' News consumers understand the bias that media outlets maintain, can read their articles, and judge accordingly. 

In the U.S., the fakestream press perpetrates the lie that they offer a balanced view of events and unfortunately enough fools continue to shallow that baloney. 

How often can the Times publish what is untrue, and its editors know to be false, and yet its core readership is unfazed? How could this publication make the claim that they publish all the news fit to print? What tidal wave of human understanding needs to occur before highly biased reporting sources are recognized for what they are? Liars.
