Lies & Racism From the Media: Rittenhouse, Waukesha Massacre, & CRT

Is the US corporate news media really the enemy of the people as many now believe? Are the legacy media institutions tearing apart America’s social fabric?

It is getting difficult not to answer in the affirmative to both of those questions , especially after watching the media coverage of the Kyle Rittenhouse case and its lack of interest in covering the Waukesha murders.

Rittenhouse was found not guilty of all the charges against him which is - objectively and legally - the correct verdict and a vindication of the thousands’ year old doctrine of self-defense.

But that is not the only reason why the Rittenhouse case was important. What makes the Rittenhouse episode so significant is that it exposed with unique clarity just how corrupt , deceitful, malicious, and racially inflammatory the us legacy media has become.

Of course, just in the last couple years, we have witnessed the so called “mainstream media” traffic in some of the most egregious lies. Take for example the false narratives advanced by the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, and CNN on stories like the Covington Catholic high school kids, Jussie Smollett ,the Steele Dossier , the Russia-collusion hoax, the Russian bounty on us soldiers hoax, the gang rape allegations against Bret Kavanaugh the Hunter Biden story, Joe Biden’s mental acuity, inflation, and the 1619 Project (to name just a few).

Thus, we have been accustomed to the media lying with reckless abandon. The more recent phenomena, however, is the combining of the media lie machine with the mainstream promotion of some of the most toxic, CRT-inspired, racially obsessed rhetoric.

This is why we see the corporate news organizations more and more disseminate articles declaring that math is racist, as CNN & The Atlantic asserted; Science is racist, according to BBC; Freeways are racist and hiking is racist according to the LA Times; Jogging is racist according to the NY Times; Salt is racist according to Buzzfeed; Breweries are racist according to The Boston Globe; Wine is racist according to The Guardian; Dieting is racist according to Huffington Post, etc.

In addition, we can see the effects of the Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality pedagogy in the media’s coverage (or lack thereof) in relation to the Waukesha, Wisconsin massacre.
