@cnn.com and a classic "bothsides" headline. There are facts/examples of the tactics. But the government denies it and media says, "oh, OK". Pathetic.

See this @chicagotribune.com headline below. But the article, too politely, points out there's no evidence of a link. So why the headline?

If a big market @mlb.com team had this record and overall team stats, media would say they're odds on fav to win the World Series. But @mlbnetwork.bsky.social ranks them 5th best chance. Ridiculous.

Here's an example of how American journalism fails America every day. @nbcnews.com news quiz included a question about "alleged genocide of white people". Alleged? Trump lied. He's a liar. He accused a country of genocide. Lied about it. But media moves on, makes it question 9 in a quiz.
Failure.
Failure.

@cnn.com it's sad that you don't even realize why this is such a terrible headline. Trump always sucked at dealmaking. Was always awful in business. Always a 🤡 . But you push the lie implying that at one point he knew what he was doing

Remember, Trump is a terrible businessman. Squandered his inheritance. Filed for bankruptcy 6 times. Hell, his casino went belly up. So why would anyone be surprised by this???
