The tale in tweets. Turley is linking old articles to these tweets, but his comments are up to date. The CBS poll—yes, CBS—shows the nation knows Pelosi is gaslighting them. Asking people to vote for your party when those people know you’re blowing smoke at them, … that’s a neat trick.
Despite the constant media mantra that 1/6 was an insurrection, the vast majority of polled citizens view it as a protest that got out of hand, according to a CBS poll. foxnews.com/media/cbs-poll… It is the latest example of the MSM in framing a narrative.
...The CBS poll shows 80% of Republicans and 69% were Democrats rejecting the characterization of an insurrection in favor of "a protest that went too far." That also show how a jury is likely to view a criminal case...
...It also mirrors how the FBI and DOJ have not found a grand conspiracy for insurrection and charged people largely with less serious crimes of trespass or unlawful entry.
...Finally, it shows how media outlets have become echo chambers with little impact outside of their narrow audience profiles. The drumbeat from Democrats and reporters that this was an insurrection does not appear to have changed the minds of citizens who saw the riot unfold.
Right. Who you gonna believe—the MSM or your lying eyes?
Thank you, Mark, for this column. I don't follow him because, to me, he often seems to lean over backwards to excuse the democrat's behavior. I'm glad I didn't miss reading 'A Crisis of Faith'. I think it is good -- and I am glad I read it.
The new Journolist talking points have been going for a year now. I laugh when I hear the ABC news reader at the top of the hour on the talk radio station I have on refer to the "insurrection" and shake my head. After a year, they aren't making much progress in selling their tripe except to the useful idiots.
