From a 20-year conservative media veteran

The foundational assumption of conservative media is that, because big media is corrupt, its antagonists can never quite lose their moral superiority no matter how irresponsibly they behave. It’s not a coincidence that the mainstream media’s most vicious critics on the right are grassroots conspiracy theorists. The election was rigged, the vaccines don’t work, the FBI planted those documents at Mar-a-Lago. The media lies, so you’re free to reject their reality and substitute your own. Believe what you like without regret. The moral high ground is yours forever.

This pretty much aligns with Whell's apparent motivation for starting this thread (i.e., MSM is dishonest, so conservative transgressions they report on are inherently fabricated (fake news)).

Trump Threatens Fox News With Lawsuit For Allowing ‘Perverts’ of Lincoln Project to Run Anti-Trump Ads: ‘See You All in Court!!!’

To which Rick Wilson of the Lincoln Project responds:
“In 2020, The Lincoln Project took up a long-term free lease in Trump’s brain. His threat to sue the Lincoln Project today is like Trump himself; impotent, flabby, and pathetic.”

On this Mediate report I cannot view the ad that the Lincoln Project ran. Wondering why. Is it this?

Of all the public voices now being heard, it's the Lincoln guys who really know how to talk to Trump.

And here's Rick Wilson's response to Trump's latest threat to sue him and the Lincoln Project. In three words, 'bring it on.' He has a few more choice words though.... https://twitter.com/TheRickWilson/st...93032023769088

I'd happily donate money if they needed it to run that tweet as a commercial on primetime TV.

The wingnut election denial book "2,000 Mules" was abruptly recalled from retailers. When told of the book's allegations against them, one cited group said it was potentially 'libelous." Even the MAGA "election integrity" group True the Vote completely distanced itself from the book. Oops.

Too funny. Even that reichwing lunatic Ann Coulter panned 2000 Mules.
