Last month, he claimed DeSantis \u201cmade little effort to connect with voters one-on-one at a picnic fundraiser\u201d in Iowa. Those in attendance at the picnic were quick to post footage of the governor taking pictures and answering questions at the event, proving Peoples\u2019 claim demonstrably false, which resulted in the addition of an update being posted to an Associated Press article Peoples helped write about the campaign stop.<\/p>\n<p>Since the media couldn\u2019t blast DeSantis for not talking to voters because he was, in fact, talking to voters on Thursday, the press instead ran with a different storyline. \u201cFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis lashed out at a reporter,\u201d reported NBC News. \u201cDeSantis Loses It On Reporter,\u201d reads a Mediaite headline.<\/p>\n<h3>The Media&#8217;s Bias Against DeSantis<\/h3>\n<p>Has the press learned nothing from the 2016 presidential election? Complaining that DeSantis was rude to a member of the propaganda press won\u2019t garner the media sympathy, nor will it hurt DeSantis. If anything, DeSantis\u2019 hostility toward the corporate media, particularly when they\u2019re actively trying to purvey disinformation with bad-faith questions, will only serve to help his presidential bid.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a reason former President Donald Trump agreed to the CNN town hall with Kaitlan Collins. The voters love watching the former president dunk on the media. His uncanny ability to keep the media \u201cin check\u201d by doing things like labeling the press \u201cfake news\u201d or canceling the White House Correspondents\u2019 dinner is a major reason he\u2019s so widely supported among conservatives.<\/p>\n<h3>Americans Know the Truth<\/h3>\n<p>Americans are well aware that the corporate press is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party. Last month, a Harvard\/Harris poll found the majority of Americans do not believe Trump colluded with Russia, nor do they believe Hunter Biden\u2019s laptop was Russian disinformation. What Americans do believe, though, is that President Joe Biden is involved in Hunter\u2019s \u201cillegal influence peddling scheme,\u201d and they aren\u2019t surprised to learn the FBI interfered in the 2016 election.<\/p>\n<p>The poll also revealed the American people know the media peddles disinformation. Americans don\u2019t feel sorry for corrupt media elites like Peoples, who think they own our minds, but they love when Republican candidates call the press out on their lies.<\/p>\n<h3>DeSantis&#8217; Winning Strategy<\/h3>\n<p>If DeSantis is looking for a winning strategy, this is it.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Evita Duffy-Alfonso is a staff writer to The Federalist and the co-founder of the Chicago Thinker.
