‘Journalists’ constantly preach that they are uber-important because they ‘hold power to account.’ It’s a laughable lie because we see time and time again that ‘journalists‘ are servants of the power they agree with ideologically. Ex-ABC News hack Terry Moran lays out exactly how the ‘journalistic’ relationship with those in power really works in a story about COVID and Dr. Anthony Fauci.
All it takes is a phone call from ‘power’ for ‘journalists’ to abandon their disingenuous mission of holding it to account. (WATCH)
🚨 Fmr. ABC News’ Terry Moran Says Fauci Shut Down Their COVID Lab Leak Story
“The day that it’s supposed to air, it gets reviewed and it comes back to me — it is incomprehensible … I was told ‘Fauci’ … There was an organized campaign … to say there’s no way there’s a lab… pic.twitter.com/FM2Q6oe3m8

“And when he told me the story was dead, I looked him dead in the eyes and said, k.”
Brave. Stunning.

‘Kill the story now? Yes, power, consider it done!’
Posters say if the story were damaging to Republicans, ABC News would have had no qualms with airing it chock full of ‘anonymous sources.’
This just demonstrates the lack of journalistic integrity in spades. They have no problem reporting entirely false stories from anonymous sources and based on hearsay, but when they have some facts and the guilty party says it’s not true, they shut it down. He is an absolute embarrassment to the profession. You don’t get off that easy trying to come clean years later.

The bigger problem is, they actually DO get off that easy. Doesn’t matter how wrong (in one direction) how often, none of these people (him, Jake Tapper, etc.) ever suffer any professional consequences.

The ‘accountability’ road runs both ways. We rarely see big-name ‘journalists’ held responsible for the numerous lies they foist on the public.
Moran’s story reminded some commenters of ABC News killing a story involving Jeffrey Epstein a decade ago. You’ll notice President Donald Trump’s name is not mentioned. (WATCH)
ABC News had Virginia Giuffre’s Jeffery Epstein story since 2016.
Leaked audio shows ABC talked her out of hiding for the story that they eventually killed.
Today Virginia Giuffre is dead and no one has ever been held accountable for their crimes. pic.twitter.com/CfQAt8PCQv

It’s just activism. Once you accept that and get out of the paradigm that they are doing any kind of fact finding, validating, and reporting with integrity and a consistent methodology and a mission to inform, you just move on.
It’s a terrible thing what’s happened to media

Yes, ‘journalism’ is just political activism. That’s never going to change. ‘Political Activism’ will be its tombstone.
Even Moran, after admitting he and his network kissed Fauci’s ring (among other things), went back to defending the fraudulent doctor.
Moments after Terry Moran expressed how “livid” he that Fauci possibly got his lab leak story silenced, he was back to defending Fauci.
“The demonization of Fauci is wrong…I have no hard feelings against him”
Host: “Except for that time he censored you.”

“Oh yeah, I only helped him cover up bio-weapons development and commission of genocide, no hard feelings toward the guy.”

Starting to wonder if Moran had Fauci over for dinner during COVID like CNN’s Jake Tapper.
Posters noticed how quick Moran was to shift ethical gears.
Working for the main stream media machine breaks people’s minds. Seconds after truthful thoughts break through, something in his mind told him to walk it back. Sad and pathetic tbh.

“Hey I was too cowardly and slavish to challenge power then, but now that it’s safe, I’ll tell this story. But I want to make clear that I still revere the institutional powers that censored attempts to shed light on the truth.”
This guy in a nutshell. The media in a nutshell.

One cannot detest the legacy media enough. They have no shame.

That’s because the human heart is incapable of holding the immense volume of hate ‘journalists’ truly deserve.
