"This presents a rare opportunity for America’s media—one they are unlikely to seize.
Trust in media is at record lows. Take your pick of the multitude of reasons why: the COVID origins story; all the anti-Trump hoaxes including but not limited to the Russia collusion hoax and the ‘fine people’ hoax; the way they report on abortions/miscarriages/IVF; their insistence that the Biden-Harris economy was “doing great” despite all evidence to the contrary. The list is endless.
But the media doesn’t have to fall for nor peddle the Gaetz hoax again. It could and should instead do its job: ask the hard questions of both sides and report the facts as they emerge, not as they want them to emerge.
Matt Gaetz has never had a chance to face any actual accuser. Mostly because the Biden-Garland Department of Justice (DOJ) investigated him for years and came up with absolutely nothing. But in the days preceding his appointment to the role of Attorney General, Gaetz will surely face Senate “witnesses” who will peddle whatever they’re asked.
The phony case against Gaetz rests squarely at the feet of convicted sex trafficker, fraudster, stalker, and identity thief Joel Greenberg. As a result of Greenberg’s arrest and charge, he agreed to provide information to the Biden government about Gaetz. So far, all of Greenberg’s claims have led to dead ends.
So, will the press bother to ask those tough questions of Greenberg and the girls he tries to implicate in the story? Will they challenge the claims of the latest Avenatti-style Democrat lawyer, Joel Leppard. Or will they simply parrot them as they did with Stormy Daniels’s lawyer? Or Letitia James? Or Fani Willis?"
