Glenn Greenwald: ‘It’s not just that corporate media rejects Americans’ views. They don’t permit those views to be heard.’

To start:

Majorities of Americans say it's *false* that Trump colluded with Russia. The the Steele Dossier is also "false."

In other words, they view the story the US media aggressively centered for 3 years as a hoax and a fraud, yet NBC and CNN won't even air this view. pic.twitter.com/wqULHK4Rd9

Majorties of Americans also believe:

* Hunter Biden engaged in criminal influence peddling using his father's name.

* The FBI is not investigating these crimes.

* Joe Biden participated in Hunter's illegal influence peddling and profiteering schemes. pic.twitter.com/HJP4sSfogw

Large majorities of Americans have serious doubts about Biden's mental fitness to be President, and believe he is too old.

Unsurprisingly, then, Trump leads Biden by 7 points for 2024, and Kamala Harris by 11 points.

Only 40% of Dem voters say they intend to vote for Biden *in the Dem primary."

For whatever reason, the poll excluded the challenger near 20%: RFK, Jr.

But even many Dems say Biden lacks mental fitness and they don't want to vote for him. pic.twitter.com/dynoAw045M

What's so striking here isn't that the corporate media relentlessly advocates views and ideologies that majorities of Americans – often large majorities – reject.

It's that the views held by majorities are all but banned on NBC, CNN, NYT and WPost. Thus, this is not a mystery: pic.twitter.com/Xm3lh0HUzv
