There should be a reckoning for media that supported Chicom lies about Coronavirus

The Corporate Media’s Coronavirus Propaganda For China Is Finally Catching Up With Them


Now that news of China's lies is beginning to seep out, will it make a difference? Will there even be corrections? Don't count on it.

Beijing has lied about the coronavirus from the start, while here in the West our corporate media has actively and enthusiastically spread its lies to households across the free world. But now that news of China’s lies is beginning to seep out, will it make a difference? Will there even be corrections? Don’t count on it.

Even before reports on incinerators “working around the clock,” massive orders for urns, government bribes to keep mourners quiet, and total government censorship, China’s lies were obvious. Even before China concealed the outbreak, blamed the U.S. military, and expelled foreign reporters, their lies were obvious.

Their lies were so obvious because China is an authoritarian regime that history plainly documents killing and starving millions while lying about it to this day. The press should know this, and they do know this, yet still corporate news outlets unquestioningly repeat Beijing’s line.

Then it all got a little confusing Wednesday, when Bloomberg reported both that the United States leads China in coronavirus cases and that China is concealing cases and deaths inside the country.

“China has concealed the extent of the coronavirus outbreak in its country,” the latter story reads, “under-reporting both total cases and deaths it’s suffered from the disease, the U.S. intelligence community concluded in a classified report to the White House.”
...
There is more.

The media has been joined in many of these lies by Democrat politicians who want to use the virus as a means of partisan attacks on President Trump.  This is consistent with the bad faith these partisans have demonstrated ever since Trump's election.  The media is just an adjunct of the Democrat party in many cases and that is why they are going along with the Chicom lies.
