What if government cutbacks meant getting rid of the poor performers rather than the poorly connected? Isn’t the idea of a MERITOCRACY built into the fundamental assumption about how a free people’s government works?
Here’s a new edition of The Right Angle, with Scott Ott leading the discussion, flanked by Steve Green and Bill Whittle.
The mainstream media has finally surprised me. Not with improved reporting and finally providing context or being truthful. But with its inability to self-correct even when its own jobs and survival are on the line.

Less than two weeks before the anniversary of the overturning of Roe vs. Wade, more than 100 employees of Planned Parenthood’s national staff were notified that they would be losing their jobs.

Here’s another tool the Establishment Journalism use to ward off criticism. They employ a PR firm called Storyful that essentially works to neutralize or spike any news that puts the journalists in a negative light. Amazing Polly calls it part of a “Censorship Cartel.” She says, “In this vid, I go over the failure of Fact Checking re the Covington story and I talk about all those laid-off journos spinning a tale of woe. I wrap up by looking at their latest target and expose the tip of the iceberg on the ‘fact checking community’ .. a huge industry which threatens the proper functioning of society.”
