Republican Representative John James of Michigan sparred with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Tuesday. James noted the legacy media’s hyperfocus on January 6, coupled with its ignoring of the even more deadly and destructive BLM riots, is why more and more Americans are tuning them out.
Here’s the exchange. (WATCH)
🚨🔥Rep. John James destroys Wolf Blitzer for hyperventilating over J6 pardons, while ignoring BLM violence:

As expected, Blitzer repeated the lie that police officers were killed in the January 6 riots. Commenters are obviously frustrated with the continuing dishonesty.
Blitzer flatout lied. No cops were killed on January 6. Zero. None. Nein.

Biden, however, did actually pardon cop killers.
"Beating officers with sticks and bats. Several officers lost their lives." Ol' Woofie is about dirty s**bitch. Well, it's Communist News Net, so that's to be expected.

Plus Wolf is lying. We all know it. So, there’s that.

The standard J6 lies were employed to no effect.

One poster was upset James didn’t go into more detail about January 6 to further refute Blitzer.
He needed to touch on J6 being a sham.

Weak rejoinder.
Expecting a tour de force debunking all things J6 from these guys every time is not a realistic expectation.

The narrative has shifted, and every hit like this helps move it further. The point he made about legacy media being disconnected from the people was a good one, IMO
Legacy media knows the BLM riots are exponentially worse than January 6, but also know acknowledging that fact is bad for their Democrat Party.

All in a legacy media memory hole

So many beatings these days, it’s hard to keep up

It really is. Legacy media is in shambles

Legacy media is dying. We’re not even sure with Republicans continue going on these obviously biased ‘news’ programs. A post on X or other social media will easily get more eyes than a stop at CNN or MSNBC. Sounds like it’s time to move on and memory hole the legacy media.
