I believe a key factor in why the most people in the news media today report the way they report is the following. For those in national (TV) news, they like their paychecks. Those paychecks come from corporations that are partnering with government, therefore, they will not put journalistic ethics ahead of keeping their nice paying jobs. For those not yet there, they want jobs with the national (TV) news and so will also not go against the desires of the corporate owners.
This is why I have subscribed to you, watch Sharyl Attkisson's Full Measure and read Just the News and the Blaze. Collectively, you are among the few in journalism that I trust will provide honest reporting and commentary.
Another item I'd like to bring up. Blaze reporter Steve Baker was arrested by the FBI on very likely bogus misdemeanor charges for alleged actions he supposed did as he was covering the January 6th rioting. He was taken before the arraignment judge in handcuffs and leg irons. Had the FBI had it's way, they would have made wear and orange jumpsuit, too.
The suspicion is that Baker was more likely put through this act of humiliation and intimidation because of his continued investigation of what exactly happened before, during and after January 6th. The government did this to Steve because there is still much to be revealed about the event of January 6th that may be very embarrassing to the government and possibly completely change the perception of those events.
Have you looked into this yourself and what are your thoughts on this?
Bernie and John,

Thanks for the kind words about us, Ray. I put your question at the bottom in tomorrow's Q&A.
