As Walter himself has pointed out in American this Week with Taibbi, every one of these MSM articles should have a subheading - why we are failing as a media institution

Buying into Nancy Pelosi’s spin on J6 demonstrates one is a dull normal partisan.

Walter’s great. He’s a highly intelligent and honest man.

Absolutely disgusting. Walter Kirn is a trusted and reasoned man. I believe he's one of the most important voices we have in America. I respect him very much. #TaibbiKirn2024

Listening to this in early February of 2025, knowing now how deep the grift and rot has been, I now understand that Matt and Walter are national heroes. They recognized it all long before the events of this past week. You guys deserve monuments.

I had such respect for Williams. This seems so beneath him.

The Atlantic has for some time become a collection of effete snobs.

As a fellow “what happened to you” red-pilled hippie chick, Walter’s and Matt’s humor is a welcome tonic in this WTF world.❤

Kirn is a great American. Thoughtful, informed, intellectually honest and laugh out loud funny.

“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” - Not actually Gandhi but good enough.
The thumbnail is hilarious on this one! Takes me back to high school.

WK is the HL Menken of our era, and he should be both lauded and unapologetic for exactly that reason.
The transparency of such straw man arguments are not lost amongst those who use their heads for more than a hat holder - and I’ll confident the rest will catch up, eventually.

I love Racket News. I listen to Walter & Matt all the time. They have never struck me as "Trump Supporters" although I am. So far they seem to be fair-minded folks..It is one of my go-to sources..

0:50 The Left should have one that in 2015, about 1 hour after he rode down the golden escalator. But NNNOOO they let him Play them.
