That\u2019s how you do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, Will, the media\u2019s worse than Pravda. At least Pravda in the old Soviet Union, everybody understood it was a big scam,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/05\/12\/trey-gowdy-dan-bongino-fox-news-lineup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bongino<\/a> replied. \u201cThat the media actually pretends they\u2019re doing \u2018journalisming\u2019 is one of the biggest embarrassments and jokes of our time, and the joke, apparently, I guess, is on us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are, shockingly, some people left, stunningly, who still believe the media is out there doing media stuff and not full-time propaganda. Don\u2019t you find it odd that the three biggest scandals of our time are all media scandals?\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/05\/26\/lord-of-the-flies-dan-bongino-defund-police-crime-chaos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bongino<\/a> continued, listing a series of stories that he felt were examples of the media driving a specific narrative.<\/p>\n<p>Bongino mentioned the origins of the novel coronavirus and the media\u2019s early aversion to the lab leak theory, former President Donald Trump\u2019s assertions that his campaign had been spied on and finally, Hunter Biden\u2019s laptop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDoes anybody else on the panel find that odd, that the media had a role in covering up \u2014 Lawrence, I see you laughing, I got a return on this one today,\u201d Bongino laughed. \u201cAnyone find this odd? Anyone? Am I missing something? The media\u2019s supposed to tell the truth, blew it on the three biggest scandals \u2014 \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earhardt jumped in, quoting the New York Post and arguing that if similar evidence had been found incriminating Trump or any of his adult children, the media would have likely done backflips in an effort to connect them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDan, The New York Post writes: \u2018Without a doubt if Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner or so on had been caught playing such games, it\u2019d get nonstop coverage,&#8217;\u201d Earhardt read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to take it to the next level,\u201d Bongino agreed. \u201cThat\u2019s easy. Yeah, of course if it was Don J., Ivanka, Eric, Jared, anyone, there\u2019d be front page stories from now until eternity. I get that. If it was Don Jr.\u2019s friend\u2019s cousin\u2019s uncle who one time seven years ago took a shot of Russian vodka \u2014\u201d Bongino continued, prompting more laughter. \u201cThis is how corrupt the media is, it doesn\u2019t even need a connection to someone with the last name Trump. If someone knew Trump who knew Trump who stayed in a Trump hotel seven years ago, this would be a story.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News host Dan Bongino lashed out at media outlets during a Tuesday morning appearance on \u201cFox &#038; Friends.\u201dBongino told hosts Ainsley Earhardt, Will Cain and Lawrence Jones that it &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2278773,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-01-at-10.36.06-AM-e1622564243977.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"\u2018One Of The Biggest Embarrassments And Jokes Of Our Time\u2019: Dan Bongino Says Media Can\u2019t Stop Flubbing Stories","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-548138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-01-at-10.36.06-AM-e1622564243977.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"\u2018One Of The Biggest Embarrassments And Jokes Of Our Time\u2019: Dan Bongino Says Media Can\u2019t Stop Flubbing Stories","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=548138"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548138\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2278773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=548138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=548138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=548138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
