Omarosa Manigault Newman may be the poster girl for 2018’s Disgruntled Fired Employee of the Year. However, it is a drooling press that gives her smoke and mirrors any credibility.
Manigault Newman has made clear that she plans to continue selectively releasing the pieces of evidence if President Donald Trump and his associates continue to attack her credibility and challenge the claims in her book, “Unhinged.” She’s already dribbled out audio recordings of conversations, and video clips, texts or email could follow, according to the person who described what Manigault Newman has called a multimedia “treasure trove.” The person was not authorized to discuss the issue publicly and asked for anonymity.
Of course they did. A good con game needs gullible and craven people willing to believe what they want to believe. Barker Omarosa made the laughable claim that she watched the President EAT A SECRET NOTE. Yet the media is still willing to get down on all fours naked and crawl across broken glass for her.
PT Barnum would be proud.
The “press” hasn’t exactly been covering itself in glory lately. I mean, when over 70 papers collude with one another to attack a President for saying they actually do collude with one another, then maybe it’s well past time they have a come-to-Jesus moment.
I wouldn’t hold my breath, though.
The media stopped long ago being reporters of the news. Editorializing is no longer just on the editorial page. Indeed, many members insist that even attempting objectivity is wrong.
They sincerely believe most of us are too stupid to run our own lives.
And then they are shocked, SHOCKED when they are booed.

The notion of being a professional, i.e. objective, journalist is now long lost. People of the media are now trying to sell themselves as ‘personalities’. In essence they are prostituting themselves to gain fame and notoriety for themselves. Any notion of operating for the common good is long gone; they have chosen their ”side” or team and operate only for their own benefit and advancement.
over 70 papers collude with one another
I thought it was 300? Was it like all their other hyped “million-something marches”?

Honestly, though, they never really were. The ones claiming that “professionalism” were always progressives trying to change the world for “good”. And for all of history, most journalists have been for one side or the other. There was just a short period of pretending they were “objective” because they lined up with (on the surface) the trend of the culture at the time (40s to 70s), and because they had a dominant position (wire services and then TV) in informing the masses.
