The Media Should’ve Imploded by Now

RUSH: So there’s another meeting at the White House. Trump is talking to state and local officials today about school safety, and during the break, I heard him. He was talking to Pam Bondi, who is the Florida attorney general, and Trump was discussing additional stimuli for kids that could not be healthy. He mentioned the possibility of video games and other things — movies on the internet and so forth — as things that could be in the mix in determining why the shooters do what they do.
CNN puts a graphic up to describe this, and you just know that the intention of their graphic had an unstated addition, which was: Trump is insane. “Trump says video games and violence on internet,†whatever else it was, “responsible for gun shootings, responsible for school shootings,†or whatever. Now, it was factual. It was true. That’s what Trump said. But within the context of CNN, CNN thinks there’s only one culprit here, and that’s guns.
Well, a second culprit is the NRA — and anything other than that, whenever anybody says, “in addition to†or “instead of guns, we might want to take a look at…†Like, when they mention mental illness. When Trump mentions mental illness, they pooh-pooh that. So the ongoing intimations from CNN is that Trump continues to be crazy, that Trump is unhinged, that Trump is dangerous. It is this arrogance and this conceit and this condescension that the media use in reporting on Trump. I don’t think they realize how it is not persuasive.
