Is the Age of the Big Lie Over?
By Jack Cashill
“They forced us to lie about everything,” said Tucker Carlson in his speech at Madison Square Garden on Sunday night. The primary reason he supports Donald Trump, Carlson continued, is because Trump “liberated” the American people, liberated us “from the obligation to tell lies.”
I can relate to that. I owe my career as an author -- 15 nonfiction books and several documentaries -- to the legacy media’s unwillingness to tell the truth. To my good fortune, they leave the big stories on the table. Citizen journalists take up the slack -- in my case, TWA Flight 800, the death of Clinton Commerce Secretary Ron Brown, the authorship of Dreams from My Father, and the shooting death of Ashli Babbitt among others.
No event in recent memory has spawned as many lies and as much mendacious reporting as the Capitol brouhaha on January 6, 2021. Indeed, citizen journalists and the alternative media are responsible for all honest reporting on this epic subject. Yes, all.
