I read a lot of articles every day.

A LOT.

I do because following the news and opinion writing is integral to my job. And while I love my job, I have to admit that without blood pressure medications, I would burst a blood vessel several times a day.

I don’t always get things right. Nobody does, and even the most meticulous journalists who try hard to abstract their news writing from their opinions are swayed by unconscious assumptions. As an opinion writer, I unabashedly inject my opinions into my work, and I do not doubt that my opinions can influence how I see reality. We are all subject to confirmation bias, no matter how much we try to see things without it.

Given that, others’ opinion journalism doesn’t tend to get my blood pressure up; lies and hoaxes are what infuriate me, as does willful ignorance. And we swim in a sea of lies in the modern world of “journalism.”

Both Ed and I have written about the “Now it can be told” style of journalism. Without exception, the writers penning those best-selling books knew most of the pertinent facts that they now breathlessly reveal, and almost without exception, they were key players in the coverups of vital facts when exposing them would matter.

We were told Joe Biden was “Sharp as a tack,” until he was out of the race. These “journalists” knew that was a lie, but they covered it, telling us that senility was a “stutter.”

The Hunter Biden laptop? Russian disinformation! Censor it! Steele Dossier? Totally true and verified. Adam Schiff, the truth-teller, assures us of that! Time and again, we are lied to, with hoaxes thrown at us daily. Hands up, don’t shoot! Nooses everywhere, on college campuses and at NASCAR! “This is MAGA Country!”

The current round of lies and hoaxes has to do with illegal immigrants who are in Tren de Aragua or MS-13 being pure as the driven snow. A wife-beating, human trafficking MS-13 member is just a “Maryland man,” “father,” and Van Hollen “constituent” who “lived quietly” before ICE cruelly deported him for no good reason.

It is rather bizarre for NPR to claim that Abrego Garcia was “living quietly” in Maryland before his deportation. It has that certain “fiery but mostly peaceful” quality to it…except that NPR decided to leave out the “fiery” and the “mostly” parts. https://t.co/VWDanTI3cW

NPR didn’t get it wrong there. No confirmation bias was involved. This is straight-up propaganda, intended to emphasize some “facts” while hiding the most relevant ones.

The New York Times conveniently glossed over that this illegal alien, Nascimento Blair is a convicted kidnapper and was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

In 2008, he was issued a final order of removal. Because of the Biden administration’s open border policies, this criminal… pic.twitter.com/qy3PvxBI2P

This is what we are fighting, day in and day out. It is no longer true that we have a liberal media. There is no unconscious bias against which we are pushing back. Unconscious bias, based on living in a bubble, used to be the major flaw of our journalistic landscape, but dealing with something so relatively benign would be a relief these days.

The former “mainstream media” is nothing more than Pravda. Sometimes they get what amounts to marching orders – spread this narrative! – but even when they don’t, they push the Party line, working daily to ensure that the establishment of which they are an essential part controls what people see, say, and think.

At HotAir and Townhall Media, we work daily to debunk the hoaxes, expose the lies, and open people’s eyes to what lies behind the Truman Show. 

We need your help to do that. Advertising pays some of the bills, but as anti-establishmentarians, we aren’t exactly loved in the C-Suites of transnational corporations, who shell out the big bucks to reach eyeballs.

Our VIP members keep our heads above water. You make it possible to wake up every day and get to work, focusing all our efforts on defending the American ideal, Western values, and most of all on telling the truth.

That’s why we periodically – not as often as Bernie Sanders – ask for your support if you haven’t joined our VIP program. We have three affordable levels ranging from VIP to VIP Platinum. VIP lets you go ad-free, gives you access to our shows and VIP columns, and gives you privileges to comment on all articles. VIP Gold gives you VIP status on all Townhall sites and allows you to participate in live chats with hosts during VIP Gold podcasts. And VIP Platinum gives you access to TownhallTV – a huge library of conservative content, and a private messaging system with all your favorite writers.

I get private messages from readers frequently, and I love that I can exchange messages with my most loyal readers.

If you haven’t signed up for one of our VIP programs, it sure would help if you did. And if you have signed up, thank you! You can upgrade your membership at a special rate by following this link.

The next three and a half years will be make or break for America. We are going to fight the left every day and would love for you to join us.
