Brian Stelter Wonders If Media Did Enough to Counter Trump’s ‘Campaign of Relentless Lying’

Once again CNN senior media analyst Brian Stelter has some pressing questions for and about the press. For example, did the press do enough to counter Donald Trump's "campaign of endless lying"? Or did all of the fact-checking backfire? What did the red wave say about the "information environment" in the United States?

It's Stelter's job to analyze the information environment in the United States, and we're sure what he's talking about is social media and Joe Rogan's podcast and disinformation. Will media outlets self-censor to please Trump … you know, like they did during his first term?

Maybe we could take Trump's "campaign of endless lying" more seriously if CNN had spoken up at any of the several times that President Joe Biden said that his son Beau died in Iraq. Or corrected the Kamala Harris campaign when it went on endlessly about "Trump's Project 2025." Or the claim that Trump was going to implement a nationwide abortion ban.

The legacy media was a trainwreck during the campaign. It insisted that all of those videos of Biden shuffling around were "cheap fakes."

That's all well and good but also proof that, like the Democrats, the media has learned nothing from the experience. As Elon Musk told X users on election night, "You are the media now." Stelter can do all the navel-gazing he wants.

Stelter's repeated hosting of psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee, who wanted to have Trump put under a 72-hour psychiatric hold, didn't exactly scream objectivism, nor did his conspiracy theories about Melania Trump going missing.

This "red wave" election shows that the legacy media's Democrat propaganda isn't working anymore.
