Quote:Remember when we were all assured that the Biden administration would bring back a return of so-called norms and decency? Gone would be the days of mean tweets and personal insults, replaced by the sharing of lollipops and rainbows.

The press specifically swooned over White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki. She was going to bring back “transparency” and honesty, absconding from the ethical breaches that supposedly plagued Donald Trump’s staff. Chris Wallace, a staunch critic of the prior administration, even praised her as one of the best to ever hold her position.

How’d that work out? Well, Psaki has turned out to be one of the most dishonest (see here, here, and here for examples), unethical press secretaries in history, just as some of us predicted. To cap that off, she’s recently negotiated a deal with MSNBC for her own partisan opinion show. Meanwhile, she continues to operate in her official capacity, and while doing so recently, she doubled down on an obscene smear of Peter Doocy that was originally made by Joe Biden.

Isn’t she just hilarious? You see, Peter Doocy is actually a “stupid son of a b****,” but that’s only because that dastardly Fox News forces him to be one. Go ahead and soak in all the norms and decency being bestowed on Americans, and send thanks to the heavens that we don’t have mean tweets anymore.

The ethical breach here is just astonishing. One, Psaki and her party spent years telling us that it’s a danger to democracy to directly attack the free press. Trump would have CNN’s Jim Acosta nearly in tears after accusing liberal outlets of spreading fake news. Yet, Psaki, and even Biden himself, consistently attack Fox News as not just a partisan opponent, but as somehow dangerous and evil. The hypocrisy is off the charts.

Worse, while Psaki is making these kinds of comments as a taxpayer-funded member of the US government, she’s already worked out a lucrative deal with MSNBC to garner a primetime show in which she will spew talking points in support of the current regime. Imagine for a moment that Kayleigh McEnany, the last person to hold Psaki’s role in the Trump administration, had done that? Do you think the press would be losing its mind over the massive ethical violation that represents?

Again, this is a person representing MSNBC, attacking a rival network, while getting paid by taxpayers. Ivanka Trump telling people to buy Goya beans was a scandal, but this isn’t?

But because it’s Psaki, they just shrug and continue to sing her praises. That kind of double standard is just gross. If the news industry will accept that, what won’t they accept as long as it’s coming from their own “team?” Yet, we are continually told the fourth estate is vital to our democracy? I don’t see it. These partisans work directly in conjunction with Democrat elected officials to push chosen narratives, ignoring inconvenient scandals along the way. What’s vital about that?

I would pay to see her "debate" Steven Crowder, Ben Shapiro, or Ben Stein.

No high road with Leftists. They dislike Doocey because he asks questions they don't want to answer.

Psaki is an Afghan Hound faced b1tch who simply is not able to deal with Doocy's fully legitimate and probing questions.

That FUGLY skank is a perfect choice for the whining crybabies at PMSNBC.

Nasty woman

how many times does, “I’m a paid operative motherfucKKKer that doesn’t give two fks what you think!” need to be stated!!!!

All press secretaries are unethical and dishonest. They are paid to lie for their bosses.

Peaki is an ignorant, hateful, brain dead, excuse of a woman. A shame Hunter hasn’t knocked her up among his other sluts.

I thought they, and AM, didn’t (don’t) like Trump because he called people names???
I’m confused….

She’s nothing but an ignorant fugly ginger t-nuc.

Brian Stelter Reaches New Heights of Bootlicking in Defense of Jen Psaki

Quote:It’s a false mantra on the left that White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is always “decimating” Fox’s Peter Doocy. We see how wrong that is daily in the regular briefings. That lie likely contributed to her getting her purported new job with MSNBC that she’s supposedly leaving the White House for in May.

Psaki was asked about Doocy during an interview with liberal podcast “Pod Save America” on Thursday if “Peter Doocy is a stupid son of a b**ch or does he just play one on tv.” “He works for a network that provides people with questions that, nothing personal to any individual including Peter Doocy, but might make anyone sound like a stupid son of a b**ch,” Psaki responded.

Oh, how nice, what a classless character she is. And she wants to talk about Doocy? How unprofessional was that? She not only falsely attacked Doocy but Fox as well.

As we reported in an update, Fox shut her down saying that Doocy’s questions were his own, he’s an excellent reporter, and they are proud of him. Fox’s John Roberts explained the facts of life and real journalism to Psaki.

But Psaki doesn’t care about journalism; she’s used liberal media throwing her softballs, and she gets annoyed that anyone would dare ask her a real question. Meanwhile, she’s criticizing Doocy while she’s massively violating any ethics she might have left by having a deal with MSNBC and still working for the White House.

As if to prove how she gets a pass from liberal media, guess who came rushing forth to defend Psaki? If you guessed CNN’s Brian Stelter, you would be correct.

Stelter claims that “Fox pushes storylines that are sometimes nonsense. Doocy sometimes does that in the briefing room.” Seriously, Brian? You work for the outlet known for fake news. Fox is the number-one news network, and people trust Fox more than CNN. But you can see how excited he is that it might annoy Fox.

Then he excuses Psaki, “Remember in senior year, spring of your senior year, you’re about to graduate and you’re just tired of all this? I think we’re seeing that from Jen Psaki.” But she’s “relaxing,” Stelter says, and maybe showing how she feels as she heads for the door. “But to be fair, she didn’t criticize him directly.”

She didn’t criticize him directly? She just called him a “son of a b**ch” — but sure, go with that take. He just explained in that quick take why no one takes anything Psaki or Stelter says as truth. What a sophomoric take from Stelter. But I’m not criticizing him directly.

Now, we know that had this happened under President Donald Trump, CNN and Brian Stelter would be losing their minds over it, if Kayleigh McEnany said this. She wouldn’t because she had class. But we know they’d be running it 24/7 as an attack on the First Amendment and our democracy. And they wonder why they no longer have any viewers?

1. Psaki represents everything that is awful, phony and unbearable about media/politics.

2. What she said about Doocy, at least in public, is really not “obscene”.

Gotta love the irony of CNN saying another network pushes stories that are nonsense

A friend of mine is convinced that Stelter is secretly a MAGA-conservative (or some such. at minimum, a non-Left, non-Progressive) who intentionally says things to make CNN appear as partisan and hypocritical as possible. I asked if she had any evidence to support this theory. She said “Well, if it were true, what would he be doing differently?” And I had to admit, she had a point.

NG, you're smarter than thine ... therefore, I need help with that logic...

'if' I understand this correctly, to prove = 1 has to resolve the "if" ... she does not...

#whatIf=0

it's plausible that he's simply a partisan hack (which proves her convoluted point ................ to a degree)

it's also plausible to believe he's a revo-psycho plant (which proves her convoluted point)

neither can be validated as =1

Not that I need to explain myself to you, WSME, particularly given your Mensa level comprehension skills, but I dislike Trump because HE more than anyone else is the one who installed her behind that podium.

There’s little hope for you, WSME. Mental retardation is not curable. But the shame is that others on this board, who actually do have the requisite smarts to know better, sit mute either because they are afraid of confronting the Trump Team blowback or (in some ways worse) because they’ve given up on the best interests of our nation.

And libs have the “best interests of our nation” as a priority? Laughable just like every liberal talking point.
You think it’s in “the best interest of our nation” to have a demented vegetable as our president?
You nozzles are gonna have your collective azzes handed to you in the mid-terms and I can’t wait. We won’t be talking you off the ledge anymore so skyscream all you want.

I love how the left weaponizes terms like 'sexist' whenever they don't like something a man says about a woman yet apparently women can say really degrading and / or derogatory things about men and suddenly the word 'sexist' doesn't exist.

And if a man used that language towards a woman he'd be forced to step down. The double standard is beyond ludicrous.
