A damning new poll shows Americans are rejecting the media’s spin campaign to protect President Joe Biden from political backlash on the inflation crisis. It was ignored completely by ABC, CBS and NBC’s evening news channels.
Rasmussen Reports published a March 21 survey that revealed 64 percent of Americans believe Biden’s administration policies have led to an increase in inflation. Meanwhile, only 8 percent responded that Biden’s policies have reduced inflation. Guess what? ABC World News Tonight, CBS Evening News And NBC Nightly News all failed to cover Rasmussen’s findings on inflation in their March 21 and March 22 broadcasts, as if the legacy media wasn’t already pro-Biden enough. These networks continue to ignore polls which aren’t favorable for Biden or his leftist agenda. The Big Three ignored an earlier Rasmussen poll showing that a majority of Americans support increased oil and natural gas production. If that wasn’t telling enough, all three networks censored a 2021 Morning Consult/Politico Poll that found that 59% blamed Biden in the inflation crisis at that time, across five days.
Not better have been the ABC, CBS, and NBC digital media websites. In fact, all three websites have incredibly tried to pin inflation on everything else except Biden’s terrible policies.
ABC News pointed to corporate greed as the origin of Biden’s inflation troubles in a story headlined, “Biden has long-term inflation plan, but voter patience short.” The outlet wrote that “Despite the pandemic and inflation, companies have still found ways to achieve historic profits.” NBC News made an attempt at misdirection with this absurd headline: “What is causing inflation? Economists point fingers at different culprits.” The “culprits” in question were the supply chain, COVID-19 stimulus, corporations — in effect, everything except the man in the White House.
Biden’s apologists at CBS were recently slammed for this infamous tweet blaming the Ukraine crisis for inflation: “The U.S. economy has been hit with increased gas prices, inflation, and supply-chain issues due to the Ukraine crisis.”
ABC News instead brazenly claimed that “America’s current inflation woes stem from the pandemic” in an article from February. This is what ABC calls balanced journalism today.
NBC ran with another story that was just as insulting to Americans’ intelligence. The outlet implied that the causes of inflation were simply “murky.” Tell that to the nearly 70 percent of people who identified Biden’s policies as a core driver of inflation, as Rasmussen Reports pointed out.
CBS News ran an article which brazenly attempted gaslighting Americans to believe that U.S. inflation had skyrocketed as a result the Ukraine crisis. Even though Russian President Vladimir Putin had invaded the country on Feb. 24, this was still a ridiculous claim.
