The Washington Post recently did a hit job, masquerading as a news story, on Sarasota, Florida and the divisiveness it claims is being driven by some right-wing radicals. It is perhaps the perfect lesson in how today’s media reports a story from the position of a narrative pre-fed by leftist activists and how, by the time the story is published, it is so riddled with errors and disinformation as to appear to be coming from an alternative dimension.
Having lived in Sarasota for 30 years, 20 of which I have spent working in mainstream newspapers, I am familiar with how this works. Many of us knew the Post was working on an attack piece on conservatives Christian and Bridge Ziegler, and we understood they were working directly with the leftist activists, who are quoted extensively. Virtually everything that came out in the Post’s story is wrong or misleading—in a word, propaganda—but that organ’s readers likely will never know it.
So let’s dive right into the propagandistic narrative.
