'BradCast' 12/6/2021 (Confirmed: Biden's Media Coverage is Worse Than Trump's. Now Why Would That Be?)

12-06-2021 (53.25 MB)

On today's 'BradCast':  Public health officials caution that, while preliminary data suggests that the coronavirus Omicron variant  may be potentially less lethal than previous variants, it also appears to be more transmissible, and they urge the public to get vaccinated, or a booster vaccination, as soon as possible. The corporate media have been misreporting on largely robust, and at times record, economic growth under President Biden, instead focused primarily on perceived weakness in the economy, omitting the positive data to report only data that paints a misleadingly negative view.  A new Washington Post analysis confirms that media coverage of the Biden Administration over the past four months has been more negative than coverage of Trump during the same period, even for remarkably similar data. Now, why would that be? Callers weigh in on why the so-called "liberal media" has been doing such a lousy, misleading job in covering Biden's Presidency to date.  Also today: The Justice Department filed a lawsuit against Texas under the Voting Rights Act to block the state's new, extremely partisan gerrymandered maps for state and Congressional legislative districts.
