I'm curious whether you would include Fox News in your "Ministry of Truth" contentions about the media since they called the election as well.
For years Republicans have been making claims about massive voter fraud which have not been proven. Since 2013 they have been making it much harder for key Democratic constituencies to vote. Why do I never have to wait more than two minutes to vote in a White suburb while Black women had to wait 11 hours to vote in Atlanta?
Why would George W. Bush and Mitt Romney congratulate Joe Biden if their was strong evidence of fraud?
My key question about a news organization is do they print retraction is a story is proved wrong. Obviously editorial boards all have biases of various types which is why I seek information from various news sources.
I just don't know how we move forward as a country if we can't even agree on what qualifies as a fact or an opinion.
