Liberal media were big losers in election

Liberal media were big losers in election

Liz Peek Articles

We do not yet know who won the race for the Oval Office, but we know who lost: the pundits, pollsters and — especially — the liberal media that have infuriated half the country.

The left-leaning newspapers, networks and social media giants for weeks broadcast predictions of a blue wave, spun the worst-case scenarios about COVID-19, withheld from the public damaging and credible information about Joe Biden’s involvements with son Hunter’s shady business deals, and ignored the former vice president’s mental lapses.

The anti-Trump media continued to proclaim the Democratic presidential nominee a “moderate” in spite of towering evidence to the contrary. And they inexcusably suppressed comments by the president of the United States.

In short, the liberal media did everything possible to carry Joe Biden across the finish line; their contributions to his campaign were incalculable.

These acts were purposeful and they had consequences.

During the weeks leading up to Election Day, the steady drumbeat of polls and news stories downplaying the president’s reelection chances discouraged his supporters. Many wondered if it was worth voting; they asked on Twitter and Facebook if the president had any chance at all of being reelected.

Many Trump backers soured on his prospects; the money flowing to his campaign began to dry up. Meanwhile, the swell of upbeat expectations fattened Biden’s coffers as donors on Wall Street and elsewhere began to see the Democrat as likely to win.

Nobody wants to be left off the gravy train, after all.

Less than two weeks before the election, the Biden camp had $177 million in the till; combined with the Democratic National Committee, the campaign had total resources of $432 million.

In September alone, the Democratic and allied PACS raised the staggering sum of $383 million.

Trump and GOP groups initially leapt ahead in the fund-raising battle, but pulled in only $248 million in September, and had a total amount on hand of $251 million.

Given the huge money advantage in the final days of the contest, the Biden team was able to outspend the Trump campaign by a factor of two, throwing enormous resources into TV advertising in vital swing states like Pennsylvania and Michigan, and online ads as well.

Money doesn’t always make the difference, as the well-funded Hillary Clinton found in 2016; but it helps.

The one-sided coverage of this campaign in the anti-Trump media is no surprise. They declared war on President Trump more than four years ago, and have never paused to reconsider their all-consuming enmity. It has cost them.

In September, a Gallup poll assessed the nation’s “trust and confidence” in the media to report the news “fully, accurately, and fairly.” The results were not heartening.

Only 9% of respondents said they trusted the mass media “a great deal”; 27% said they had “not very much” trust in the press; and a near-record 33% said they had “none at all.” That’s quite a report card.

Needless to say, it was Republicans who drove the numbers down, with the survey recording a record 63-percentage-point gap in trust among supporters of the opposing political parties.

The liberal media’s lopsided manipulation and reporting on this race may not be surprising, but the outcome is. The reporters and pundits got nearly everything wrong.

For months we were told that President Trump had so offended white women that he had no chance of defeating Biden. But some exit polls show Trump doing better with white women than he did in 2016.

We were told that the Democrats would grab control of the Senate; that looks unlikely.

We were told that Trump was a racist, and that Black and Brown Americans would turn out in droves to vote for Joe Biden. Instead, Trump got the biggest support from minorities of any Republican since 1960.

We were told that Trump’s supposed mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic was so terrible that it cost him the support of seniors, but he actually led with older voters.

We were told that the GOP would lose a dozen seats in the House of Representatives. Instead, they gained seats.

How can so many smart media types get an election so totally wrong? Because liberal journalists have never tried to understand Trump’s appeal, or why so many millions of Americans are in his corner.

Those on the left have demeaned Trump voters as “Deplorables,” as Hillary Clinton did; Joe Biden called some Trump backers “ugly folks.” Liberals hint that Trump backers are racist, or prone to weird conspiracy theories.

The left routinely has criticized Trump for not expanding “his base,” as though that was a few dozen rednecks hanging out at the local bowling alley.

Trump support turns out to come from nearly half the nation, from all walks of life, and it has built over the past four years. It has grown because African Americans and Hispanics, among others, have begun (at last) to question whether Democratic policies work for them.

It has grown as small business owners across the country saw that Trump’s policies of low taxes and less red tape would help them thrive.

Trump’s base has expanded to include even more factory workers, who applaud Trump’s efforts to confront China and demand better trade terms.

If Biden becomes president these folks will not disappear. They will look for a candidate ready to take up the same battles and to look out for their interests.

And they will look to get even with the dishonest liberal media and the social media giants that even now are censoring questions being raised about election irregularities in Wisconsin, Michigan and. Pennsylvania, according to a tweet from former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

How to demand fairness from the dishonest liberal press and tyrannical social media platforms? Nobody knows. Maybe Republicans in the Senate will try to strip Twitter and Facebook of their protections against lawsuits; maybe some new information platform will emerge that does not attempt to editorialize.

Americans are an entrepreneurial and creative people; they will find a way. Let us hope they do so before 2024.

Liz Peek: Liberal lies have created this moment – Trump can do this to secure his legacy

For four years, Democrats and their handmaidens in the liberal media have lied their heads off, spinning false narratives aimed at undermining President Trump.

With all of the documented and fact checked lies from tRump, this is a satire page, right?

Why not use your gift of writing to bring people together. The curtain has been lifted and we see clearly his tantrums have escalated to violence. Why not write on how we can solve problems together instead of continuing this lie that Americans that don’t vote my party are evil.

All of the non Republicans in the government TOGETHER could not tell as many lies as Mr. Trump – starting with the crown size at the Inauguration.

There's nothing more incredible than a Trump supporter who claims to be concerned about honesty.

So ridiculous.

Ah, you spent your entire column burying the lede:
"But now, to maintain his powerful voice and leadership, he needs to concede. The Left is using his refusal to admit defeat as more proof that he is undermining our democracy. He cannot allow this to be his legacy; his presidency has been so much bigger than that.

Trump should confound the Left, as he has done on so many occasions, by calling off the shaky legal battles and by stepping aside. If only for now."

No wonder you can only find work at Fox News.

You are truly deranged,

Liz Peek, you are so full of shit. Your opinions are only yours and create division you pos entitled white Trumper. F u!

You have got to be smoking something! Trump being a lowlife whiny pissant created his own downfall!

You are an idiot. You should be ashamed of trying to prolong this countries horror of the last 4 years. These are times the 1st amendment should be abolished. HE LOST!!!! QUIT BEING A SORE LOSER AND ACT LIKE AN ADULT. And, people like you are only fueling his demented state.

www.foxnews.com/opinion/obama-warning-biden-americans-worried-liz-peek

Produce the exact evidence that Obama ever said this. Better yet, stop writing altogether. You truly are grotesque.

You are interviewing with a media resource that has been defrauding the public of many truthful facts for "decades." You should focus on all the fraud covered up by the legal industry, in this country, in the hands of people like Donald J. Trump, Barack Obama and George Wl Bush and their "Friends and Affiliations" employed in the very unethical media industry.

Imagine still thinking the Russia investigation was a witch-hunt.

Go read the REPUBLICAN SENATE report.

Russia tried to help Trump win, because Trump is owned (literally owned) by Russian money. He has a negative net worth.

After the damage done to our democracy, after the murder and mayhem committed by RightWing nuts who actually BELIEVE the vitriol and lies and disinformation spouted by the likes of Liz Peek, she proves that she has no allegiance to the USA, no allegiance to our society (and free elections) and is strictly sycophant of extremist RightWing groups and their propaganda Network, Fox (who supply her with money, thereby giving Liz Peek her "cause" for spreading lies). She's the worst.

Oh honey! Trump is the congenital liar. And remember, in the U.S. a business states it’s rules…No Shirt No Shoes No Service. Don’t follow the rules? Goodbye.

This Peek woman is very very sick.

This election is not over: the China-Hunter-Biden scandal only grows, polls are narrowing – 100+ million people yet to vote. Plus, Joe stepped in it again last night.

Here's hoping the investigations into the insurrectionist conspiracy find media outlets like Fox — and bigmouth disinformation spreader like Liz Peek — financially culpable. Hit them in the pocketbook, where it really hurts them.

Good god but you are a stupid vile sack of shit.

I love your articles. Love the truth. Article on Fox said go to twitter or facebook. I have banned myself from the Democratic control of twitter. I tried other ways posted to contact you and express my gratitude for your fairness. All other channels to contact you seem to be blocked. So… Thankyou and keep fighting for Liberty and Justice!

Why was your own son investigated after being abruptly turfed out of the National Security Council? Takes nepotism and corruption to know it so well.

Does this person get paid to spread this bullshit,Its Fake News.

The polls are narrowing? LOL electoral-vote.com/

The fuck

all over face book biden gaffe re lincoln saying he has new eye computer he was looking up and dint read reply right with all the gadgetry the white house have they should be able to confirm its true or not even if a slight suspicion trump could say biden and his team were corrupt want another debate but biden to be checked by independent electrocis bods and to be screened come on man u know it makes sense je

why didnt trump ask biden why he and obuma didnt setthe record straight when the media nd the nad four said it was trump that did the cages ask trump just ask that at a press gathering or the lady that does the daily white house chat

Let's face it Joe Biden is a LIAR & a criminal, Period! Poll 95% say Trump won the debate. Bottom line is Joe ['THE BIG GUY'] Biden flip flops, lies & sells out Americans to enrich himself besides being a crooked & corrupt crime family. PERIOD! Joe was an absolute mess in this last debate! Biden was lying, flip flopping, stuttering, slurring & a forgetful mess. He looked terrible. Sounded terrible. Mic drops where when Trump calls Joe 'THE BIG GUY' & Trump says “They spent 48M on me & found no collusion …nothing. I can spend $1 million on you Joe and find plenty.” LOVE IT WTG TRUMP!! Lt. Tony Bobulinksi confirmed 'THE BIG GUY IS JOE BIDEN & HE GETS 10% [Tony Bobulinski: "There’s no question "H" stands for Hunter & the "Big Guy" is Joe Biden"] & Hunter gets 20%. Tony also said that the Chinese involvement in the deal was for "political or influence investment" on their part, and that "Hunter wanted to use the company as his personal piggy bank by just taking money out of it as soon as it came from the Chinese." Biden's are as corrupt as Clintons, PERIOD!

Thank you LP. We need more American’s with your insight.

tRump can't even fundraise as well as Biden – people hate him – except Russian-loving bimbos like you with their heads so far up 45's ass they can't see anything but his polyps. Is that why right wing bimbo Trump horndogs always wear sphincter-colored lip color? Will Putin let you work at his pool house along with 45 and his baby mama sex worker in January? Probably not – after all you're not "an elite" – you're insignificant, irrelevant and inconsequential – just another fading bleached blonde liar. Please make sure to attend his upcoming rally – increase the viral spread! BTW your roots are showing – you even lie about your hair color – looks kind of like the color of a bleached dog turd on a hot August afternoon. Ugly – inside and out.

You claim Obama/Biden separated families. Lie. Prove it.

The left-wing intolerance visible in newsrooms & on social media is born on our increasingly intolerant campuses. My generation has given in to the often outrageous demands of young people – too scared of being mobbed on social media.
This must stop. Stop donating to your school if you don’t like their policies – and tell them why. If you are a college administrator or trustee- speak your mind. We have all been enablers, and it’s time to push back.

Noticed your chat with Harris. Looks like you are oblivious to Trump’s loss with the Supreme Court. It’s FOLLOW THE MONEY stupid. When Deutsche Bank calls in Donnie’s debts he’ll be buying Melania’s dresses from Walmart. The man is a crook and has been for decades. Enjoy!

You’re just riding on trumps gravy train, where are you going to be when he goes to Jail?

peek, 20 in 69. oh those Young people. moron.

I'm astonished that you would sell yourself to foxnews to spread false information and promote unrest in our country. Shame upon you and your family Liz Peek.

You are a complete and total nut job.

Ridden with Biden 2020 . I read your recent article about Bidden as read it I said to myself gee it sounds like you work for Fox news. Icloiked up to the top of article and saw with I wad right. Please sop supporting Trump who constantly lies.

Fringe nutball Liz peek is always good for a laugh….sorry Liz…trump is out with the trash in November but you’re always great for a laugh…not that you have any readers 😁😁

UNREAL that BLM ran all the vendors selling Trump stuff off the streets & kept people away from the rally. PLUS Obama NEVER EVER IN 8 YRS MENTIONED JUNETEENTH?? Trump is spot on, he has done more for Blacks in 3 yrs than Biden in 47 yrs or 24 yrs of BHO, Bush & Clinton inleadership. But Just WOW Trump said he was "average" at Tulsa rally, he was far beyond avg. Trump is back baby making us PROUD & LOUD while also making us laugh, ie West Pt. ramp & throwing water glass. There is TRUTH & IRON IN HIS WORDS OF WISDOM, loved making burning, stomping & desecration of our Flag a crime & serving time in prison. It also should include statues & monuments. #Trump2020 #MAGA #KAG

Well stated.

Be interesting to see in the next few months how many left of center are still silent…and what happens when it’s cold out and the time has changed…

Liz Peek, the greedy, money-grubbing minion of Faux News — the Only Corporate-Owned Propaganda Network in the USA, and a supporter of Tea Party Republicans — opines about radicalism "on the left". If it wasn't so disgusting, it'd be funny.

Three generations of brainwashing is paying off for the liberals. Where were we when our kids were being taught to be so intolerant and ignorant of any valurs.

Liz Peek: another: Faux News, uber-wealthy blonde (bottle or not) clone who spouts racist, entitled B.S., and gets her wilfully ignorant audience to swallow it with a spoonful of class warfare. Yeeeeech!!

You are absolutely right!

Liz Peek and her husband Jeff Peek, former CEO of CIT Group, have three children. In October 2019, their son Andrew Peek, Donald Trump's Europe and Russia adviser, was abruptly removed from his position as Head of European and Russian Affairs at the NSC and is currently under federal investigation.
You are part of spys family and traitors. Never the least you keep a good disguise.

omg honey, you are sooooo stupid

Thanks Liz Peek!
