There's never a bad time to defecate on how legacy media and all who work in it are a failure of an institution and sucks at life. The latest is Vice President JD Vance, by comparing it to another failing institution... Congress.

It was part of a wide-ranging interview. These bars, discussing the legal brouhaha (if I may invoke a little French) surrounding Trump's use of an emergency declaration to push tariffs, are important. Vance's point about having to rely on other countries for critical supplies (such as relying on China to cure us of the China Virus) is a point that isn't being made loudly enough. And one that, dare I say, is more effective than 3 AM social media rants.

But we're not here to debate judicial matters. We're here to shit on journalsimers. Mr. Vice President, the floor is yours.

They've got a lower approval rating, traditional media does, than Congress, which is actually a very hard thing to do. It's almost a skill in and of itself to have a lower approval rating than Congress, but somehow CBS, NBC, and ABC have managed to do it.

Here's the thing. I don't know if Jake Tapper and the guy who is always sitting next to him realize how much damage their Biden book is doing to the journalisming industry. They might realize it now, since they are trying to pivot to make it about Donald Trump. However, the "how did it happen" schtick only highlights that it happened.

As Jim Gergahty points out, the Biden cover-up and the media claiming the Biden cover-up was fake news is just the most egregious example of journalismers lying to the American people over the past fifteen years.

• Michael Brown never said “hands up, don’t shoot” in Ferguson.
• The lab leak wasn’t a crazy conspiracy theory.
• The Hunter Biden laptop is real and isn’t “Russian disinformation."
• An exhaustive investigation by Robert Mueller “did not find that the Trump campaign, or anyone associated with it, conspired or coordinated with the Russian government."
• Police shootings of unarmed black men are relatively rare.
• And so on.

And every time there is a new poll or peer-reviewed study that lists the journalisming content creating complex as the least trusted one in America, instead of looking in the mirror, everyone in the industry wrings their hands and blames it all on Elon Musk not censoring enough.

They legit don't get it.

Now everyone in the media claims they had no idea Joe Biden didn't know where he was, how all these people got in their room, or who pooped his pants. But it's not their fault! It's the fault of the people who lied to them about it. You can't expect CNN or NBC News to get to the bottom of it.

At least not according to (checks notes) CNN and NBC News.
