The mainstream media commits suicide

Pretty sure I've used that title before but here comes Megan McArdle in the Washington Post: "McArdle: Liberal Media Bias is Hurting Democrats."

Those of us who used our own eyes were right. Those (including the NY Times) who relied on White House talking points about "cheap fakes" were embarrassingly wrong. And that's the ultimate point McArdle is making. You can't lie your way to victory when almost everything is happening on camera. All you can do is ruin your own credibility.

Credibility ruined:

Morning Joe went to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the ring and save his job.  Because of his principles.

Extra non-fake news: "The Associated Press says buyouts and some layoffs are ahead as it seeks to cut its workforce by 8%."
