In case you were wondering what an awful, terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad job our mainstream media have done covering news for the last several years, look no further than this tweet Brit Hume shared from Andrew Sullivan:
Andrew Sullivan ~ 2016 election. Rittenhouse. Covington. Russian collusion. Vaccines. Bounties on US soldiers. Lab-leak theory. Jussie Smollett. The Pulse shooting. The Atlanta shootings. Hunter Biden laptop. Inflation. Steele Dossier.
The MSM got every single one wrong.

Wow, right?
And in sharing Sullivan’s piece, Brit pointed out a few other stories they totally hosed.
Brit Hume ~ Major media missed them all, not to mention UVa fraternity rape, "Hands-up don't shoot," Michael Avenatti, Brian Sicknick fire extinguisher, border crisis.
If people in another field screwed up this badly they’d be fired.
Seriously.
You can see why the only group that has a lower approval rating than our media is Congress and THAT’S close. Especially as Biden’s numbers keep falling but that’s another story.
Jake ~ NASCAR Noose was another.
Tony Jones ~ Is it considered a miss when it's done intentionally ...
Good point.
They’re activists, not journalists.
But you all knew that.
Rick Rhodes ~ 2020 summer riots and Charlottesville “good people on both sides.”
j sox illini ~ Duke Lacrosse
Might be easier to come up with stories they got right, since there are so few?
Heh.
