Journalists Forgo Independence As SCOTUS Seat Opens

All the ramifications of the Trump presidency will not be fully understood until his presidency is in the past. One effect, the alarming rate at which journalists have ceased to feign independence, is a tragedy, or a blessing, depending on your point of view. Those who have noticed the hidden agenda of the left-wing press for the past few decades are happy to see them exposed.

Still, every so often it amazes me how the press no longer even tries. Dan Rather is no longer an active member of the press but he stands as a respected journalist emeritus in high esteem. Here is what he said about the Supreme Court tilting to the right:

Rather than Tweet, stay quiet

Keep in mind that is a SCOTUS  pick that Mitt Romney would have made. This is not a Trump faux pas or a crazy earth shattering new Trump policy. However the press voicing their bias is so humdrum that a beacon of independence openly states that the court tilting right is the end of democracy. Let that sink in. The man feeding us news for decades feels that conservative ideas are the end of democracy. Unbelievable, and he has no shame in doing this publicly.

He may as well be as unhinged as CNN Legal expert Jeffrey Toobin who sees the apocalypse in our future.
