Corporate Media Failing to Call This What It Is: A Coup
By Robert Reich, Common Dreams
If this is not a coup d’etat, I don’t know what is. It is not “taking sides” to say so. Rather, it is accurately describing the dire emergency America now faces.
I want to talk today about the media’s coverage of the Trump-Vance-Musk coup.
I’m not referring to coverage by the bonkers right-wing media of Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News and its imitators.
I’m referring to the U.S. mainstream media — The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The Atlantic, The New Yorker, National Public Radio — and the mainstream media abroad, such as the BBC and The Guardian
