Democratic National Convention August 19-22 2024

Never forget:

The New York Times has been caught, once again, passing off Republican operatives as “regular” Republican voters…

It raises serious questions about whether Times editors and reporters, rather than actually trying to determine how voters feel, are setting out to find people to mouth the words they need for predetermined story lines…

This isn’t the first Times story of this kind to feature ringers.

And so on and so on.

While this Salon article is from four years ago, I think it is absolutely still relevant to a thread on the DNC in 2024. The same dynamic – the same misleading (i.e., dishonest) reporting and analysis from the “mainstream media” – will stain post-convention analysis.
