An article in the The Washington Free Beacon led us to do some digging about how the press feel about their coverage of President Biden, especially in contrast to their treatment of President Trump.

Here is what we found in a recent CNN Business Reliable Sources email:

“White House quietly tries to reshape economic coverage

The White House, not happy with the news media’s coverage of the supply chain and economy, has been working behind the scenes trying to reshape coverage in its favor. Senior White House and admin officials — including NEC Deputy Directors David Kamin and Bharat Ramamurti, along with Ports Envoy John Porcari — have been briefing major newsrooms over the past week, a source tells me.

The officials have been discussing with newsrooms trends pertaining to job creation, economic growth, supply chains, and more. The basic argument that has been made: That the country’s economy is in much better shape than it was last year. I’m told the conversations have been productive, with anchors and reporters and producers getting to talk with the officials

Related: Dana Milbank was on CNN Monday to talk about his column. He told Brianna Keilar that the news media needs to “do soul searching and see what we are delivering to people…” “

What is this column that Milbank is referring to? It was a Washington Post opinion piece titled, “The media treats Biden as badly as — or worse than –Trump. Here’s proof.”

Milbank writes:

“Artificial intelligence can now measure the negativity with precision. At my request, Forge.ai, a data analytics unit of the information company FiscalNote, combed through more than 200,000 articles — tens of millions of words — from 65 news websites (newspapers, network and cable news, political publications, news wires and more) to do a “sentiment analysis” of coverage. Using algorithms that give weight to certain adjectives based on their placement in the story, it rated the coverage Biden received in the first 11 months of 2021 and the coverage President Donald Trump got in the first 11 months of 2020.

The findings, painstakingly assembled by FiscalNote vice president Bill Frischling, confirmed my fear: My colleagues in the media are serving as accessories to the murder of democracy.

After a honeymoon of slightly positive coverage in the first three months of the year, Biden’s press for the past four months has been as bad as — and for a time worse than — the coverage Trump received for the same four months of 2020.”
Here is the graphic that he includes.
It is fascinating that Milbank calls negative coverage of Biden a “murder of democracy.” Some of what he says is exactly what someone on the right would have send when President Trump was in office: “Biden governs under traditional norms, while Republicans run a shocking campaign to delegitimize him with one fabricated charge after another.”

Biden and the deep state “own” most media outlets. (through compromise, force, favors, etc). The news media outlets that tell the truth are immediately attacked with more lies, misinformation and unfairly demonized. (let’s remember to pray for them and that they grow in viewership and a listening/reading audience)
There is very little truth that comes forth from this administration. Most of us do not have to guess who the real players are running the show. What many Christians (and others who are opposed to the Biden administration) don’t seem to understand is that what we are seeing now was put in place for the last decade+. That is why it was critical to the Dem party, deep state, etc. to fully “pull off” a successful (fraudulent) election.
That is why those in the media under the Democratic and deep state payroll were relentless in their continuing attacks on the Trump administration. Under Trump, the deep state, many Dems, corporations, foreign governments, internal officials, etc. we’re constantly being exposed. We were (are) witnessing a battle of hell vs God. The exposure to “light” caused hell to pull out all the stops. We see, in part, what they were hiding in the shadows. It will be painful to watch as more “secrets” are exposed but absolutely necessary for our nation.
It’s up to us to continue to pray for exposure, regardless of the cost. The victories won’t be won by the “political world”, although some things that do happen there are a result of “prayers that expose”. As Christians, we must relentlessly pray for more truth to come forward. We are seeing pieces of it but there’s so much more to be revealed that is hidden and that will come forth with “our diligent efforts and God moving through those prayers”. Let us not expect that most of today’s media outlets will report “fairly”. Let’s not get caught up in that circle of hype. Those serving the bidding of hell want nothing to do with truth, facts or possible loss “unless God changes their heart or forcibly puts them in a place where they must tell the truth”. Let us pray for both to happen continually so that ALL people will know He is God…. even a dishonest media.

HA! Their “coverage” consists of covering for all his failures and shortcomings and then trying to spin them into positive assets of some sort. Biggest liars after demonicratic congressmen and lawyers.

Father, we thank you that we can pray and trust you. You are doing great things in bringing revival to our nation. May your Spirit hover over the media and bring them to do right and proclaim things honestly or let them completely lose viewers. We praise your Name that you are working. Give us eyes to see.

Biden is an illegitimate president who has been designated now to complete the agenda that HRC couldn’t since she lost the Presidency to our legitimate President Donald John Trump. Hillary Rodham Clinton was tasked to complete the “16 Plan to Destroy America” [study memes to verify], with Obama doing his worst during his 8 years of destroying our Military, our middle-class, shipping businesses and jobs overseas, giving our Internet Protocol to the U.N., and promoting racism at every turn. Thankfully he failed at pushing the U.N. Treaty that would have removed our 2nd Amendment rights and confiscated the guns of law-abiding citizens. Look at Australia & New Zealand!

They are all NWO Globalists that bow to George Soros and the Rothschild CB Cabal. Also the CCP Plandemic bioweapon is a NWO Globalist Luciferian depopulation agenda that has compromised our CDC, FDA, AMA, Big Pharma, and the WHO.

MILLIONS have died without cause since there are at least 3 viable, highly effective, low-cost therapeutics with proven efficacy in eradicating ALL SARS Viruses [and other illnesses as well]. They are Hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin, and Chlorine Oxide. Please see my detailed comprehensive exposé here: https://zionsgate.wordpress.com/2021/09/16/it-is-time-to-free-america/

I believe that the conservative media has been quite accurate in their coverage of this Administration and their attempts to destroy our nation. I also see where the liberal media, as expected, don’t accurately report anything. They are concerned, as usual, with beating up President Trump, and anyone , or any organization, concerned with the conservative agenda in this nation.. This is a very big part of the liberal agenda. After all, they have nothing that they can promote as positive, or even beneficial to our nation since Biden and his goons took over the reigns in D.C. Lord Jesus, please, bring truth to light through the liberal, mainstream media. Americans deserve to know the truth, and deserve to hear it through ALL media outlets in this nation.

Honestly, the Washington Post article is a joke. The mainstream media began to report more of the TRUTH toward the end of the summer when it was impossible to ignore some of the egregious, foolish decisions made by the Biden administration. It was difficult to deny the foolish and tragic Afghanistan withdrawal, rising gas prices fueled by cancelling the pipeline and drilling, inflation, the total disaster at our southern border and many other botched decisions. We do need to continue to pray for the president and his cognitive dysfunction, which should be obvious to everyone.
The idea that media coverage of Biden is as negative, or worse, than President Trump is absurd. The mainstream media bears much responsibility for exaggerating & outright lying about Trump and also for NOT reporting on many excellent accomplishments of his administration. This was particulary evident during the 2020 election. In addition, they downplayed negative situations about Biden, and almost completely ignored Hunter Biden’s extremely “sketchy” overseas investments and connections, which included his father, Joe Biden, despite his denials.
I believe the American people are waking up (many prophetic words are talking about us “waking up”) and seeing the TRUTH. As the darkness gets darker, the light is getting brighter!!

It will not let me say I have prayed. On this article and several others.
Lord God please bring about truth in the mainstream media. That they will stop fear tactics and present honest factual information not bought by any side. Open the eyes, hearts, minds, and spirits to each and every American and bring them to you father. May an overwhelming revival happen in our country. In Christ Jesus name I pray amen.
