Here is a breakdown of the attack strategy by the main stream media.......democrat party members of the press..........
The Coronavirus
The corporate media spent March, April, May, and June demonizing Republicans and lauding Democrats for their handlings of a disease that killed three times as many people in Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s New York as the recently targeted states of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Utah combined.
Since the end of May and through June, corporate media have actively promoted and adoringly lauded giant national public gatherings (and riots) for racial justice, communism, anti-policing, and even black transsexuals, plus multiple packed and politicized funerals. And over the past week, headlines have excitedly blared rising numbers of identified coronavirus cases in Republican states.
The number of deaths correlating to these numbers is curiously absent from any headlines. This isn’t surprising: When corporate media were working to destroy South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem’s hands-off approach to the virus, the startling number of cases at a pork-processing plant The New York Times dubbed the “Country’s Biggest Coronavirus Hotspot” were touted by the paper and the dozens of brave reporters who rushed to parrot it.
The death count from this apparent death factory eventually clocked in at two, although this didn’t warrant a follow-up from either The Times or its followers — it didn’t fit the narrative.
To find this inconvenient fact, readers would have to dig into the kind of local South Dakota reporting that treated their neighbors’ lives and livelihoods as more than just points on a national board.

The Economy
The same corporate media that hand-selects its virus statistics to batter and frighten Republican politicians routinely plays the fool when discussing the once-historic-and-now-plummeting economy of the United States. After years of striving to deny Republicans credit for an economic boom under their watch, the corporate media and its friends in government now champion the lockdown that dramatically ended the boom.
To resist this lockdown is called selfish at best and murder at worst; to so much as mention the country that unleashed the disease and lied to the world about it for months is labeled xenophobic. For Republicans, the choices presented are economic suicide or certain death, sprinkled with racism.
Democrats like Colorado’s Gov. Jared Polis, on the other hand, are given a pass while following a similar playbook as his GOP colleagues. And all of the sins, yet none of the wins, seem to fall on the president’s head. You don’t say.
Police Reform
While not nearly as effective a bludgeon yet, next up is the defeat of Republican Sen. Tim Scott’s federal police reform after the alleged murder of George Floyd. Corporate media’s audience might recognize Scott as the South Carolina politician routinely characterized as the “GOP’s only black senator,” despite being one of three total. His bill, backed by Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and the White House, didn’t get a vote — Democrats, you see, said it wasn’t even worth considering.
Indeed, during the Democratic filibuster of the reform bill, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi characterized Scott’s attempt as “trying to get away with murder, actually — the murder of George Floyd.” NBC’s Peter Alexander, to his credit, pressed Pelosi for an apology, but was rebuffed and the story went away.

The Corporate Media Finally Have A Working Plan To Beat Trump
A media-driven panic, a panic-driven economic collapse, and Democrats' filibuster of police reform are prepping the stage for a Republican disaster.
