A Country Without an Honest Media Is Lost
by Paul Craig Roberts
Dear Readers,
For some time I have reported to you that in place of a media, a media that our founding fathers relied on to protect our society, the United States has had a propaganda ministry whose sole purpose is to destroy our society.
I learned of New York Times editor Bari Weiss’ resignation letter to A. G. Sulzberger from a relative and from friends who called to ask if I wrote the letter as it sounds so much like me.
No, of course I did not write the letter.
This is an extraordinary letter written by a journalist of real principle and integrity who realized that such highly valuable journalistic traits were no longer welcome at the New York Times. Bari Weiss’ letter is better than anything I could have written. She lived the experience. I could only infer it.
-
As a former Wall Street Journal associate editor and columnist,
-
as Business Week’s first and for some years only outside columnist in its history,
-
as columnist for Scripps Howard newspapers, for Creators Syndicate in Los Angeles,
-
as a regular contributer to the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, the San Diego Union, and a number of other once prominant newspapers,
-
and as a regular guest on the TV networks,
I am no longer permitted on any of these media platforms today.
******************************************
The reason is that truth does not correspond to their message.
******************************************
This is what Bari Weiss found to be the case at the New York Times:
“a new consensus has emerged in the press, but perhaps especially at this paper:
truth isn’t a process of collective discovery,
but an orthodoxy already known to an enlightened few whose job is to inform everyone else.”
I don’t need to go on about this.
