A WSJ columnist said Joe Biden was part of Hunter’s business deal. Hours later, its news reporters said the opposite.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifes...1be_story.html
Quote:
Dueling accounts from the same publication about a major news story are rare. Also unusual: Opinion columnists typically don’t attempt to break news. Large, mainstream news organizations such as the Journal manage their news-reporting and opinion operations separately.
In the Journal’s case, there’s an ongoing civil war between its news staff and its opinion side, as well as a wider war among news organizations controlled by the family of media baron Rupert Murdoch.
In July, more than 280 employees at the Journal and its parent company, Dow Jones, protested what they said was the spread of “misinformation” by the paper’s opinion pages. “Opinion’s lack of fact-checking and transparency, and its apparent disregard for evidence, undermine our readers’ trust and our ability to gain credibility with sources,” the employees wrote to new publisher Almar Latour. “Many readers already cannot tell the difference between reporting and Opinion. And from those who know of the divide, reporters nonetheless face questions about the Journal’s accuracy and fairness because of errors published in opinion.”

ANY opinion from a Murdoch-owned property is bunk.

How The Epoch Times Created a Giant Influence Machine
Since 2016, the Falun Gong-backed newspaper has used aggressive Facebook tactics and right-wing misinformation to create an anti-China, pro-Trump media empire.

Quote:
Today, The Epoch Times and its affiliates are a force in right-wing media, with tens of millions of social media followers spread across dozens of pages and an online audience that rivals those of The Daily Caller and Breitbart News, and with a similar willingness to feed the online fever swamps of the far right.

How many read the print edition? Old folks here keep getting print edition samples in the mail. Falun Gong? Fascinating. Never would have guessed.

Idiot Trumpkins will believe anything Faux "News" tells them. Anyone expect a retraction from them anytime soon?

Murdoch's media empire is the very definition of Fake News.

Rupert Murdoch-owned US outlets turn on Trump, urging him to act with 'grace'

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ede-with-grace
The king of Fake News appears to be washing his hands of his illegitimate man-child.

On Jan 20th, Murdoch-owned outlets will suddenly discover COVID, and will be blaming it on Biden.

And if the US infection rate hasn't significantly dropped 100 days later, Biden will own it.

What's your point?
Seriously, because you're not telling me or any other PC participant what we don't already know.
