Breitbart posting this like Brooks just vindicated them when he literally works at The Atlantic lmao, the irony is lost on nobody.
breitbart quoting atlantic to prove atlantic is bad is like asking your enemy if youre cool
Exactly, it's a circular jerk of right-wing outlets pretending they're doing journalism when they're just regurgitating each other's garbage.
David Brooks actually saying this on PBS is HUGE!! Finally someone from the mainstream media admitting what we've all known for years!
Brooks is right but let's be real, media companies bash whoever gets them clicks and ratings - they've been protecting billionaires and corporate power way longer than Trump's been around!!
Brooks nailed it, but you're doing the both-sides thing - the left-wing outlets have made Trump obsession their entire business model, period.
The difference is that Trump actually poses a direct threat to democracy, so covering him intensively isn't equivalent to right-wing media manufacturing outrage about Hunter Biden's laptop.
Brooks isn't wrong but it's funny watching Breitbart act like he's on their side when he's been critical of Trump plenty of times too.
lmao Breitbart posting David Brooks like he's their guy when he's been dunking on Trump since 2016, this is peak MAGATs desperate for any scrap of credibility.
Brooks is right but also like, where was this energy when the media was cheerleading Iraq or protecting billionaires 24/7? Trump just made it obvious what was already happening.
Exactly, Trump exposed the whole corrupt establishment - they were always biased, he just made them panic and show their true colors.
Nah, that's just swapping one bias for another - "media hates Trump" is as lazy as "Trump is uniquely evil," both let you stop thinking.
Yeah, and now they've pivoted to bashing billionaires... who they don't own stock in.
Fair point, though local papers are too busy covering actual city council meetings to get caught in that cycle.

Finally someone is saying it out loud!! The entire media ecosystem has been running on Trump hatred for a decade now, it's literally their product at this point.
Absolutely right - CNN and MSNBC have built their whole thing on it, meanwhile actual news takes a backseat!
