When we denounce the dead legacy media for being, as President Trump correctly labeled them, 'the enemy of the American people,' we tend to focus on the biggies, like CNN, The New York Times, The Washington Post, the national TV networks, and other outlets with a large presence in the overall media landscape.
But make no mistake, local outlets can be just as corrupt in their biased coverage designed not to relate the news, but to prop up the Democrat Party.
Last week, Twitchy reported on James O'Keefe's massive exposé regarding election fraud in Minnesota. Poll workers were caught telling a disguised O'Keefe that identification is not necessary as long as the voter has someone to 'vouch' for them. 'You are the ID,' one worker told O'Keefe.
You would think that the Minnesota media would be aghast at such blatant violations of election law.
Nope. Here is how Minneapolis's FOX 9 presented the scandal:
Minnesota officials say authorities are reviewing a stunt by a conservative influencer who impersonated voters at Minneapolis polling sites while dressed in an Islamic niqab on primary day. https://t.co/6ICEHPr0sO

A stunt? Really?
Yes, pay no attention to the poll workers who are on camera openly inviting fraudulent votes. Instead, label O'Keefe's video a 'stunt' and call him a 'conservative influencer.'
The term FOX 9 is looking for, but can't bring itself to utter, is 'investigative journalist.'
Pity they don't have any of those on their staff.
It’s not a “stunt” to successfully do investigative journalism.

We learned that it’s easy to commit election fraud in Minnesota simply by wearing a mozlem woman’s slave costume.

How about you, I don’t know, investigate fraud? https://t.co/quCJQe6fDB

X users gave FOX 9 a gigantic ratio, with hundreds of replies like the ones above, for ignoring the fraud to focus on the man who exposed it.
But no one let them have it with both barrels of the street howitzer better than O'Keefe himself, who went full Doc Holliday on the news station.
I beg to differ @Fox9, it’s called journalism. No impersonation. Just tough questions. You should try it in MN.

You and I have history from 2020 when you/NYT defamed me.
I sued and got past Motion to dismiss.
We started a game we never got to finish.

Outstanding! A clapback worthy of Val Kilmer himself.

If FOX 9 wants to play for blood, as Holliday would say, that's just O'Keefe's game.
Say when.
Why, @fox9, you dont look very well. Are you part of a RICO or other network of material support aiding & abetting voter fraud. Healthcare fraud, immigratiom fraud, ICE obstruction, & Antifa? Be a shame if @WHFraudTF @DOJFraudDiv knew about it or considered voter intimidation pic.twitter.com/wWW8KWsJ7p

It would be a shame if the Anti-Fraud Task Force and the Department of Justice descended on the entire state, including the governor, secretary of state, attorney general, Minneapolis mayor, and all of the media outlets that are complicit in enabling the fraud.
A real shame.

They ain't no daisy. They ain't no daisy AT ALL.
@Fox9 should watch out

O'Keefe may soon be on an undercover date with@Fox9's owner. https://t.co/ystm3AbThm
HA!
Don't count that possibility out. No matter how ridiculously O'Keefe 'disguises' himself, the leftists always fall for it and spill the beans to him about their corruption.

Real investigative reporters like O'Keefe, Nick Shirley, and Chris Rufo are doing the job that the media refuses to do.
And that's why most legacy outlets, even local ones, are little more than laughingstocks anymore.

Needless to say, FOX 9 has not responded to O'Keefe's challenge.
Because they can't.
But don't expect O'Keefe to drop his ongoing defamation lawsuit.

In the end, maybe investigative journalism is just not FOX 9's game.
Perhaps a spelling contest?
