MSM Have Liearned Nothing From History

You'd think that after the Five O' Clock Follies in the Vietnam War, the faked intelligence trotted out to justify the Iraq War and all of the lies about how the Afghan War was going, that reporters would know that their job is to find out inconvenient facts, not just reprint government press releases.

Not at ABC News, where stenography rules.

There is credible intelligence that members of Mexican drug cartels have offered a "tiered" bounty system for hits against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

It should be obvious to anyone that DHS is scrambling for any rationale to crack down on the protests and to give Cadet Bone Spurs a justification to send in the military. Accepting a DHS press release as factual on any matter, especially one of this gravity, is nothing short of journalistic malpractice.

The reporters and editors involved should be sent to small-market stations to cover road accidents and school board hearings in order to properly learn their craft.
