CBS News reporter Ed O'Keefe just learned what happens when Trump Derangement Syndrome collides with reality - and the results were absolutely humiliating.
During Wednesday's White House press briefing, O'Keefe thought he had Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt cornered when he smugly asked for examples of President Trump being "falsely called racist." The question came after Trump posted a tribute to Jesse Jackson, pointing out how he's been unfairly smeared by the left-wing media for years.
What happened next was pure gold - and had the entire press corps laughing at O'Keefe's expense.
Facts Don't Care About Your Feelings, Ed
Leavitt didn't just answer O'Keefe's loaded question - she absolutely destroyed it with a masterclass in actual journalism. While the CBS reporter clearly expected to stump the Press Secretary, he instead got a education in how the mainstream media has spent years peddling false narratives about Trump.
The uncomfortable silence that followed O'Keefe's question spoke volumes. Here was a reporter so consumed by anti-Trump bias that he couldn't even recognize the mountain of evidence contradicting the left's favorite smear tactics.
"O'Keefe learned a new concept Wednesday: facts," perfectly captures how divorced from reality these legacy media hacks have become.
This embarrassing moment perfectly illustrates why Americans have lost all trust in outlets like CBS. These so-called "journalists" are so blinded by their hatred of Trump that they can't see past their own propaganda.
The Press Corps Speaks Volumes
Perhaps the most telling part of this whole debacle? Even O'Keefe's fellow reporters couldn't help but laugh at his pathetic attempt at a gotcha moment. When your own colleagues are cringing at your obvious bias, you know you've hit rock bottom.
This is the state of American journalism, folks - reporters more interested in pushing narratives than seeking truth. Thank God we have a Press Secretary who isn't afraid to set the record straight and call out these media frauds.
How long will Americans continue to trust outlets that prioritize political activism over actual reporting?
