"We Now Know What Really Happened in Atlanta"
Media lied to voters about the cause of President Biden’s subpar debate performance. The lie—described here in full—is unforgivable, and was intended to chill discussion of Trump’s cognitive decline.

This is long but well worth the read; explains all the media piling on Joe. Many of us have felt that this is orchestrated and much more going on than meets the eye. Abramson tells what the "much more" is—well sourced.

1. It's almost as if 'they' want him to agree to leave before

enough time goes by to give Biden a positive bump from his rallies, the Project 2025 coverage, his conference (and I’m hoping) his Lester Holt interview because they know that once his numbers climb Biden won’t be convinced and so they are piling on now and implying the numbers won’t /can’t get better.

I wish I had a crystal ball to see if the RNC next week was going to help TSF or be a veritable shit show. It’s going to be an interesting rest of the month.

4. WASHINGTON POST...

In my regular media monitoring, there seemed to be a glut of anti-Biden news. I cut back my viewing of these. Also in Washington Post, the comments, which are usually quite positive with few trolls, were filled with what looked like negative AI comments calling for President Biden to drop out. They were all very similar in structure. They started out extolling how much they LOVED BIDEN, BUT...
They filled in their reasoning for calling for him to drop out, but they were short and not very convincing.

It was demoralizing so I quit reading them, but came back the next day to counter them and call out trolls.

Then I read a detailed poll that said very very few people after the debate had changed their minds over who to support!

We have got to question the mainstream media and trolls, cause this appeared to be a concerted effort at disinformation. I had only seen this happen before the 2016 election.
Very scary! Learn how to spot this and block comments and call it out.

This explains a lot. Thank you.

5. This is how the pro GOP media treated Al Gore in 2000

The NY Times and the Washington Post are the ring leaders in both cases. This is why I haven't bought an NYT or Washington Post since 2000.

6. This is OLD NEWS. (The Media will assess and proclaim.)

8. The campaign doesn't try to explain trump's cognitive decline.

And the media doesn't question it.

[Lonestarblue]

9. I also have to question whether some of the media animosity is that they do not want Harris as president

should something happen with Biden. Better yo let fascists take over than allow a black woman to be a possible president. It is mostly white men who own and control the media.

10. a long but must read - the proof of the conspiracy of the media wrt Biden/cognition/stepping down

vs. the majority not swayed by media's gaslighting. what do we do to overcome this?

11. The media absolutely lies.

Whenever it suites their agenda and when it is convenient.

13. Please spread this on all social media sites that you deal with.

Truly a very long read but I can't thank you enough for sharing it. I shared it on my FaceBook page as "public" but that's the only social media source that I deal with. I've also sent it to some of my relatives for the talking points it contains.

Hopefully, everyone who reads this Seth Abramson substack article will share it and talk about what he is saying.

The Democratic Party needs to unite and quit eating itself alive. We need a political juggernaut against the Republican Party and its Christo-fascist regime wannabees.
