Suppression Deception Snobbery And Bias

Russian collusion. The lab-leak theory. The Hunter Biden laptop. Mostly peaceful protests. What if America’s misinformation problem is coming from inside the mainstream media? Fox contributor Ari Fleischer says most Americans live in a media-created fantasyland. Never before have we been so information-rich yet so poorly informed. America’s liberal media keeps getting the news wrong. In Suppression, Deception, Snobbery, and Bias, Fleischer notes that half the country is keenly aware that they are routinely mocked and looked down on by much of the media. The disdain shown by too many reporters for too many Americans is a major reason our nation is polarized and divided. Today’s mainstream media is dominated by college-educated Democratic voters who write stories for other college-educated Democrats. These journalists haven’t just slanted the media; they take sides in our debates and are too often activists for a cause. There is no secret meeting where liberals decide how to slant the news. There is no central source of propaganda. It’s worse than that. It comes naturally to the media because they’re too much alike—they have a diversity problem. It’s time the press faced up to why so few people trust them and why they’ve been losing viewers and readers for decades. Suppression, Deception, Snobbery, and Bias is the reckoning they will never do on their own.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Lemon and his anti-Trump guests mocked the tens of millions of Americans who voted for Trump as being elitists who only know how to sip their lattes and know about other countries. They didn’t care that Trump was from New York City. #2 The media’s small-minded approach to its job and routine dismissal of conservative and populist thought is a major reason America is so polarized. #3 The media’s role in the country’s polarization cannot be understated. So long as the media continues to engage in suppression, deception, snobbery, and bias, the nation will be harmed. #4 Journalism is suffering. It has become largely liberal, and too unfamiliar with the circumstances and needs of many Americans, especially those without college degrees.

The United States is facing many crises today, the likes of which have not been seen any time in the history of the nation. There are crises in immigration, crime, inflation, fentanyl drug abuse, cancel culture, education, trust in government and media, racial tension, and many others. While our nation has had serious problems in the past, the current crises are exacerbated by the fact that they are all occurring simultaneously. Furthermore, our governmental leaders, at the federal and local levels, are at odds with each other, appear helpless and can’t agree on effective ways to bring valid solutions to these problems. Some meager attempts have been made to address some of the issues causing these problems, but those attempts have been fruitless and ineffective. In the meantime, the problems continue to increase in frequency, severity, and intensity and there appears to be no light at the end of the tunnel. Stated differently, there appears to be no human answer to various current crisis we are experiencing, and they continue to worsen. This means that we must look beyond man to get an understanding of what is happening, why it is happening, and what is the solution. The reasons for these problems, why man cannot solve them, and the solution to these problems are found in the Bible. First it is important to realize that all nations are created by God, and He has a specific reason for each nation He created. The United States has been blessed with greater wealth, military strength, and economic resources than any nation in the history of the world. Furthermore, the founding documents for our nation were found to have been based on the Holy Bible, further indicating that God had a specific purpose in mind when creating the United States. Our research shows that there are at least two distinct reasons why and how God created the United States which we explain in ample detail. God also provides laws and principles as to how nations should operate and function; and He promises to bring judgment on nations that violate His laws and rebel against Him. When a nation violates these laws and rebel against God, to the extent of the violations and rebellion, the greater the judgment God brings on that nation. From numerous biblical examples, various nations are shown to have rebelled against God. In God’s response we see a pattern emerges that can be summarized as God using a three-step plan in bringing judgment and final destruction on these nations. In this book, we brought out several of these examples as illustrations. When we review the history of the United States, we see that it has rebelled against God for decades. This rebellion came in the form of taking prayer out of the public schools, teaching secular humanism in schools, colleges, and universities, legislating sinful activities, refusing to acknowledge God as Creator and Sovereign Ruler of this nation, and many other ways which are brought out in detail in this writing. Where does the United States stand in God’s 3-step plan of judgment? From our study and analysis, we show how the United States is most likely at the last part of stage two. Based on biblical examples, the final destruction of stage 3 is certain to come unless the United State applies the solution found in the last chapter of this book, entitled, “Is There any Hope for the United States?”.

The early years of the twenty-first century were a tumultuous time in America. The country faced a hotly contested presidential election, the largest terrorist attack in the nation's history, and the early stages of war. Through it all, President George W. Bush surrounded himself with a handful of close advisers. During this time the man beside the President was Ari Fleischer, his press secretary and one of his most trusted confidants. In this role, Fleisher was present for every decision and became an eyewitness to history. In this riveting account, Fleischer goes behind the scenes as he recalls his experiences in the West Wing. Through the ups and downs of this time, he took the heat, fielded the questions, and brought the President's message into living rooms around the world. In Taking Heat, Fleischer, for the first time, gives his perspective on: The 2000 election, from the recounts to the transition to power September 11, 2001, its aftermath, and the anthrax scare The pressure-filled buildup to the war in Iraq and the President's thoughts as the war began Life in the White House, from learning to adjust to the pace of the West Wing and his early briefings to his relationship with the press The White House press corps, who they are, and how they report the news The factors that led to his decision to leave Washington behind. This is the story of the men and women of the White House press corps and the cornerstones of democracy: freedom of speech and the freedom of the press. Fleischer presents an in-depth, insider's view on the Washington political arena from a perspective few have seen. Fleischer writes of his belief that the press has a bias in Washington. It's not a question of partisanship or press-driven ideology. Instead, it's a focus on conflict, particularly if it's a conflict they can attach to the President. It's the nature of the White House press corps, regardless of who's in power. The members of the White House press corps are masters at being devil's advocate, able to take with passion the opposite side of whatever issue the President supports. Fleischer's job was to calmly field their questions, no matter how pointed. Taking Heat is an introspective exploration of the top political events in the first half of the Bush administration, as well as the candid observations of a professional who stood in the bright lights of the world stage.

“Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.” -H.L. Mencken The Left used to be the party of the hippies and the free spirits. Now it’s home to woke scolds and humorless idealogues. The New Puritans can judge a person’s moral character by their clothes, Netflix queue, fast food favorites, the sports they watch, and the company they keep. No choice is neutral, no sphere is private. Not since the Puritans has a political movement wanted so much power over your thoughts, hobbies, and preferences every minute of your day. In the process, they are sucking the joy out of life. In The Rise of the New Puritans, Noah Rothman explains how, in pursuit of a better world, progressives are ruining the very things which make life worth living. They’ve created a society full of verbal trip wires and digital witch hunts. Football? Too violent. Fusion food? Appropriation. The nuclear family? Oppressive. Witty, deeply researched, and thorough, The Rise of the New Puritans encourages us to spurn a movement whose primary goal has become limiting happiness. It uncovers the historical roots of the left’s war on fun and reminds us of the freedom and personal fulfillment at the heart of the American experiment.
