Until recently, there has been little cultural diversity in the print and broadcasting media. Journalists almost everywhere presented a left wing slanted view of the news as a result of their conditioning in left wing focussed journalism schools. complete takeover by the left of the means of communication continued as left leaning journaists got promoted into positions of higher authority. From these lofty heights they had the power to hire and fire, and right wing journalists were pointedly not hired, or were the first fired.

it was by this method that government sponsored news media like the BBC (Baathist Brainwashing Corporation) and the ABC (Australian Brainwashing Corporation) became renowned for their unreformable left wing bias.

Fortunately, the public is heartily sick and tired of leftist propaganda, moral lecturing, and virtue signalling, and public trust in the media has never been lower. In addition, smart publishers like Rupert Murdoch saw the chance to gain market share by creating right wing news outlets. These have become so popular that CNN, once market leader has dropped to 9 in popularity, while Fox News is now number 1.

The news story about the young Catholic boy was a case in point of how the left wing media seize on any news story where they can display their customary contempt for white people and show their loving concern for minorities. That was the prejudgement of the leftist news in this story before any attempt was even made to use journalistic standards to figure out what had really happened. We saw exactly the same thing with Jussie Smollet, The two Muslim girls who falsely claimed to have attacked by MAGA wearing thugs, and the Tawana Brawley case. The leftist bottom line is always, minorities are always right because they are oppressed by white people, so let's pin the blame on the honkies as our default position.

Predicting election outcomes based on polling is fraught. But if your crystal ball is on the money, David!? Proves just one thing, That you can fool some of the people all of the time!

But, particularly those whose average IQ's are barely above the ambient temperature. You'll have a nice day now y'hear.

Another well thought out and brilliantly reasoned argument by Alan B.

Tell me what is more deranged? Wearing a Maga hat or a vagina head hat. The leftist media gets everything upside down.

Where have you been all this time Alan.

Did you miss that the yanks re-elected Obama.

Anything more stupid than that, they can never do. There is nothing more stupid available, & never will be.

Hang on a second. They could have elected Hillary.

The Washington Post has stealth-edited all mention of Richard Branson's Venezuela aid concert in Cucuta, Colombia, after the paper originally claimed that the event "drew a crowd of more than 200,000 people Friday."

Branson hoped to attract 250,000 people to the concert and raise $100 million to "buy food and medicine for Venezuelans suffering widespread shortages."

The attention on Saturday remained immediately focused on the single largest staging ground for aid in Cucuta, Colombia — where a massive benefit concert hosted by British billionaire Richard Branson drew a crowd of more than 200,000 people Friday.

A second version of the article mentions Branson, but eliminates the 200,000 figure: "A convoy of 14 trucks bearing 280 tons of aid was being prepped near a warehouse loading dock here in Cucutá, where thousands of volunteers had camped overnight following a massive benefit concert for Venezuela put on by British billionaire Richard Branson."

Why the change of heart?
A Saturday analysis by Moon of Alabama revealed that WaPo's 200,000 figure was Fake News.

The stage was build at the top right across both roadways with its front towards the southwest. There was room for a few hundred VIP and reporters right in front of it. The field where the plebs were kept away lies between the north to south treeline at the right and the north to south ditch with the two single trees. According to the Google map scale the field's northern edge is some 125 meters wide. The crowd was standing at the northern end of the field at a depth of about 50 meters. The density of the static crowd was low to medium with on average 2 to 3 people per square meter.
125m * 50m = 6,250 m2 * 2.5 people/m2 = 15,625 people

One may generously add a count of one or two thousand for the people mingling around in the back of the public area. In total there may have been up to 18,000, but certainly no more than 20,000 people at the concert
