Good morning. It's Saturday, Jan. 6, and we're covering Vivek flipping the script on an NBC reporter, full-scale collapse for the Washington Post, 2024 MLB odds, and much more. First time reading? Sign up here. | | American Fact of the Day! | Have you ever heard America called a "melting pot?" What do you think that means? America is called a melting pot because immigrants have come here from all over the world over the last 400 years. Originally, most settlers came from northern Europe. Your ancestors might have come from England, Ireland, France, Germany, Denmark or Holland. |

| | Breaking Updates | | Vivek Does It Again, Flips Script on NBC Reporter As She Has Meltdown on Camera | A Washington Post reporter Meryl Kornfield asked Vivek Ramaswamy if he condemned "white supremacy." He then proceeded to decimate the media games while also speaking against all racial discrimination. But he predicted exactly what she would do, which is write up what she wanted regardless of what he said. Even though he predicted it during his conversation with her, she did it anyway.
He did it earlier this week when a Washington Post reporter Meryl Kornfield asked if he condemned "white supremacy." He then proceeded to decimate the media games while also speaking against all racial discrimination. But he predicted exactly what she would do, which is write up what she wanted regardless of what he said. Even though he predicted it during his conversation with her, she did it anyway.
NBC News reporter Dasha Burns tried again on the subject of white supremacy with Ramaswamy, as though anyone would believe that he is a white supremacist or in favor of white supremacy, and it's more than a little hilarious that it's a liberal white reporter trying this on a man of Indian descent.
What they don't like is the way he says to stop racism by not being racist, to anyone. He ripped apart how some of these definitions from people on the left of "white supremacy" include things like "punctuality," which would itself be a racist construct.
He said you're not supposed to ignore any white supremacy crime, as he made clear, but he pointed out how media plays political narrative games. He spoke about the delay in the release of the Nashville shooter manifesto and why that one was delayed. It wasn't about interviewing him or the facts but about trying to paint him in a negative light. | Read more updates here |

| | The Washington Post Is in Full-Scale Collapse | Is The Washington Post in full-scale collapse? A recent look at the numbers provides a fairly convincing answer to that question. According to the report, not only is the Post losing $100 million a year, but it lost over half of its online engagement by the end of 2023. The signs were already there by mid-year, and the worst has come to pass.
As to the reasons behind this precipitous fall, I think they are fairly obvious. Nothing the Post produces is worthwhile. Their columnists are boring parrots who all say the same thing, levying the same boring attacks they were levying nearly a decade ago. Even a died-in-the-wool liberal can only take so many Jennifer Rubin columns claiming the end is nigh for the nation because Republicans get to vote.
Like with Deadspin, far-left activists are more than happy to run a publication into the ground pursuing their political wants. The culture at the Post is so toxic and entitled at this point that it would take a top-down cleaning out of every level of the outlet's operation to make a dent. Is that going to happen? Of course, not, because the backlash from the radicals would be overwhelming. Bezos is stuck, and it wouldn't surprise me if he tries to cut his losses eventually.
Where does Jeff Bezos, who owns the Post, go from here? The path the news outlet is on is not sustainable. | Read more updates here |
