Josh Hawley is filing a suit against the NFL and Tampa Bay because he's challenging the results and he will be joined by Ted Cruz and Majorie Taylor Greene when they lead a group of people to NFL headquarters to retrieve the trophy for the Chiefs!
Their lawsuit contends that the liberal media doctored the results by aiming a laser at the satellites and manipulating the game everyone saw on National Television, because they the NFL was feeling guilty about what they did to Colin Kapernick re Black Lives Matter, and because Brady was from the North.
When contacted, Ted Cruz is now trying to lay the blame solely at the feet of Hawley, claiming that it wasn't him who was pictured signing the suit and Hillary Clinton was masterminding a plot from a pizza shop to bring him down, for which the evidence will be produced by Devin Nunes, when he emerges from the hedges he's been hiding in at the White House.
Can anyone dispute this didn't actually happen? Or that Hawley, Majorie Taylor Greene and Ted Cruz is now trying to steal the Super Bowl from Tampa Bay Buccaneers?

As for the media hypocrisy, here is how a sample of the MSM covered a similar incident involving Trump.

CNN even assembled a panel to discuss.

Can you find where any of these outlets reported on Biden's creepy encounter?
I can understand given Trump's history why adversarial news agencies would give it a lot of attention to Trump's comments and go "meh" to Biden even though both comments are relatively benign. But I will allow you to think that's media bias and hypocrisy. CNN has long established itself as biased against Trump, even though they are not fake news.
On the other hand I can't find where Fox News covered the story at all. Is it hyprocrisy that they are making a big deal out of Biden's remark but said little, if anything about Trump?

Yes, it is. But I have always acknowledged they have a biased slant. There are posters here who refuse to see the liberal bias and hypocrisy, even as blatant as CNN's, in any of the main stream news outlets.

You are so right. I find it difficult to watch both CNN AND Msnbc because their coverage is generally anti GOP. However, if you can get pass the fawning of the Dems,MSNBC generally have good story lines that can be well researched. I like Ari Melba because he's more objective.

Really a good deal of news while "written journalism" is online and through shares on social media. This is not necessarily a bad thing because when say something goes viral on Twitter or facebook it holds people accountable because it reaches a lot of people. Unfortunately sometimes it's just a snippet of a story such and not in the full context, or people with their short attention spans read just the headlines and a few lines and not the whole story. An example would be the teen in the MAGA hat encountering an elder Native American. He's now winning undisclosed money because of how it was reported.
Printed magazines and newspapers are no longer a major source of news.
Fox News remains the most watched news.
I do know that CNN and other news agencies like MSNBC had a decided anti-Trump stance, but honestly I feel that Trump fed them and I don't think it was always anti-Trump but just him reporting his antics. He lied daily, made outrageous comments, called them Fake News, embarrassed himself on the world stage, on and on and on almost daily he did something they just couldn't ignore. Is it Trump bias for CNN to report yet another outrageous lie?
But sadly a good deal of people go through their lives oblivious and not aware of the news stories of the day. It's enough for just to get through the day and our lives.
Lots of people inform themselves by listening to cable television programming. That's obvious when they parrot the things that their favorite media tells them but then struggle to find any print journalism which verifies or supports the words or notions that tickled their ears. I find that on platforms like AN that television watchers project that dependence upon others...fans of Fox news or OAN presume that everyone gets their information in the same way that they do. We've all been advised to "turn off CNN" haven't we?
Not having cable Internet means that we are very deliberate in what we download and watch...data is not free...
Often those who depend upon cable television for their information also don't read articles they encounter on social media, they read the by-line and the synopsis. Even in discussion, it's not uncommon for cable dependent people to post links to articles that they haven't actually read.
I think that this impeachment trial is made for those people.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is barred from Instagram over false coronavirus claims.
What sort of arrogance does it take to make comments about something as important as this without even having a medical background, knowing that you are a public figure and that if you are wrong, that you may have killed people!
I have a working background of vaccines because of our training and education and being curious, quizzing visiting researchers from Merck and GSK in the cafeteria. It showed me just how complicated the research is, enough to humble me about what I thought I previously knew.
This guy couldn't possibly know as much, and he's been spouting off for ages now! One thing I learned about the British having lived there for many years, in certain aspects of their society, you are seriously judged by your output! Having grandparents from Sweden and Denmark, in certain areas of their society, it's exactly the same. They consider what they say and it's implications.
Here we have people who just talk for speaking sake. Kennedy is an elected official and has responsibilities to all his constituents, incl pro vaxxers.

The Republican political party actual rewards people for thoughtless, inaccurate or blatantly false speech, rhetoric or commentary these days.
