Matt Taibbi: the Sovietization of the American Press (link)

Sometimes Walt finds it difficult to follow the numerous commentators on matters political, religious [and hockey! Poor Len] who I ought to read regularly. One such is Matt Taibbi, sometime writer for Rolling Stone, and creator of his own Substack blog, TK News.

I've been waiting to read Mr Taibbi's analysis of 2020's stolen election, but if it has appeared, or is in the works, I haven't heard about it. I should keep up with Mr T, and have now resolved -- my Saint Patrick's Day resoluytion -- so to do.

Thanks to Agent 3 for giving me the wake-up call [e-mail actually. Ed.]. What prompted him to do so was  Mr Taibbi's March 12th column, headed

 "The Sovietization of the American Press".

The subhead is: The transformation from phony "objectivity" to open one-party orthodoxy hasn't been an improvement. This photo pretty much sums up the content.

Lack of space [and lack of permission! Ed.] constrains us from reposting the entire piece, or even excerpts. Suffice it to say that Walt recommends strongly that you click on the link above and read the article for yourself. 

You'll find it isn't just your imagination. The lamestream press really has become the lickspittle press. Mr Taibbi concludes thus: "What is this all going to look like in four years?"
