CBS's 60 Minutes just served up another masterclass in why Americans don't trust the mainstream media anymore. In what can only be described as journalistic malpractice, the once-respected news program attempted to "fact-check" President Trump's previous comments about the plight of South African farmers—and spectacularly failed in the process.
The hit piece, which aired as part of 60 Minutes' ongoing vendetta against the 47th President, was supposed to debunk Trump's concerns about the violent attacks and land seizures targeting white farmers in South Africa. Instead, it inadvertently confirmed everything Trump had been saying all along.
This is exactly what patriots have come to expect from the legacy media. They're so blinded by their Trump Derangement Syndrome that they can't see straight anymore. While President Trump was highlighting a genuine humanitarian crisis—the systematic targeting of farmers in South Africa—60 Minutes was more concerned with making him look bad than reporting the truth.
Media Meltdown Continues
For years, we've watched President Trump absolutely demolish the credibility of outlets like CBS, CNN, and the rest of the state-run media complex. They simply cannot handle being called out for their biased reporting and fake narratives. Now, even in his second term, they're still obsessed with taking him down—even when it means ignoring real human suffering.
The irony is delicious. In their desperation to paint Trump as uninformed or malicious, 60 Minutes actually highlighted the very problems he was addressing. Talk about an own goal! This is what happens when activism masquerades as journalism.
"The mainstream media has become so predictably biased that they can't even recognize when they're proving their opponents right," one conservative media analyst noted.
While President Trump continues to focus on America First policies and real solutions for the American people, the legacy media remains stuck in 2016, fighting battles they've already lost. The American people see right through these transparent hit jobs.
How long will CBS and the rest of the failing mainstream media continue to embarrass themselves with this kind of sloppy, biased reporting? More importantly, when will they start covering the news instead of manufacturing it?
