It is hardly breaking news that the corporate media in America has a left-wing bias. That has been the case for decades. We have now reached a point of critical mass, however, where the constant drumbeat of partisan media has indoctrinated those on the extreme left to act on that messaging with deadly results.
The depth of media extremism was on display in a fiery exchange at the White House press briefing last week, as Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confronted Niall Stanage of The Hill in response to his questioning. Stanage pressed her on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations, claiming 32 deaths in ICE custody, 170 wrongful detentions of U.S. citizens, and the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Leavitt shot back, labeling him a “left-wing hack” and accusing him of posing as a journalist.
Far from an overreaction, Leavitt’s aggressive response was a necessary pushback against the pervasive bias that plagues establishment media coverage of immigration, a bias that favors unchecked mass migration over facts and American security.
Stanage’s question was a prime example of this selective framing. He highlighted ICE’s alleged missteps without context, implying systemic recklessness. Yet, Good’s shooting occurred during an ICE operation targeting immigration violations and fraud in Minnesota’s Somali community. According to federal accounts and cell phone videos, Good, who was present as a self-described “legal observer” with ties to activist groups, appeared to obstruct ICE operations and then weaponize her vehicle against agents, prompting one to fire in self-defense.
