					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by</em> <em>Dr. Everett Piper </em></p>
<p>This week I had a new Facebook “friend” send me this note: “Upon liking your professional page a minute ago, Facebook warned me that your page ‘has repeatedly shared false information.’”</p>
<p>Because communicating with a real human being at Facebook’s Ministry of Truth is more difficult than talking with your dead uncle at a Madam Blavatsky seance, perhaps this open letter to <a href="chrome-extension://oknpjjbmpnndlpmnhmekjpocelpnlfdi/topics/mark-zuckerberg/">Mark Zuckerberg</a> is in order.</p>
<p>Your Eminence Mr. Z,</p>
<p>I have recently been informed that I am guilty of posting “false information” on your social media platform.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/02/an-open-letter-to-mark-zuckerberg/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Ken Blackwell</em></p>
<p>President Trump’s enemies provided yet another disturbing glimpse of the bona fide fake news factory into which the mainstream media has morphed.</p>
<p>Late last week, <strong>Ian Bremmer</strong> tweeted a made-up quote from President Trump. Bremmer is one of the most well-known foreign policy experts in America. He didn’t offer any hint that the statement was fake. “President Trump in Tokyo: ‘Kim Jong Un is smarter and would make a better President than Sleepy Joe Biden,&#8217;” Bremmer wrote.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/06/a-disturbing-glimpse-into-the-manufacturing-of-fake-news/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Levin read from an article he discusses in his upcoming book, “<a class="external" href="https://www.amazon.com/Unfreedom-Press-Mark-R-Levin/dp/1476773092/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=unfreedom+of+the+press&#38;qid=1557920600&#38;s=gateway&#38;sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer">Unfreedom of the Press</a>.” The article, <a class="external" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/commentary-the-unbearable-smugness-of-the-press-presidential-election-2016/" rel="noopener noreferrer">written after</a> the 2016 election by CBS News digital political correspondent <strong>Will Rahn</strong>, detailed D.C. journalists’ anguish after Donald Trump’s victory. The reporter admitted the mainstream media missed the story, while smugly mocking the people — Trump’s supporters — who knew better what was going on.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/understanding-fake-news/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>What kind of Twilight Zone are we living in when Democrats pretend that the mainstream media are objective journalists and Fox News is an arm of the Trump administration?</p>
<p>People are always talking about media bias, so why am I bringing this up now?</p>
<p>Well, because of two news alerts that popped up on my phone. First, I read that the Democratic National Committee is refusing to partner with Fox News for the 2020 primary debates.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/hey-liberals-on-media-bias-please-remove-the-plank-from-your-own-eye/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Democrats and liberals have used a strategy, again and again, to try to win power, and it is by calling others, their opponents, liars, haters, racists, and more.  Often this is just an example of psychologically projecting onto opponents their own actions they have taken or are willing to take.  But you won’t see many of these examples of liberal or Democrat deception in the media called out (visit <a href="https://onenewsnow.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> to see what other media sites won’t fairly discuss).&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/02/the-left-is-hateful-and-discriminatory/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<div class="article_body">
<p>CNN, famous for fake news, focuses their 24-7 news cycle on anything damaging to President <strong>Trump</strong>, even if they have to provoke it or make it up. Their low <a href="http://dailycaller.com/2018/06/26/cnn-food-network-ratings/">television ratings</a> reflect the lack of public interest in their incessant Trump bashing. In late June, “In primetime, CNN lost to HGTV, Investigation Discovery, the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, and the Food Network.”</p>
<p>When CNN is not Trump bashing, they are virtue signaling to fellow leftists.</p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/cnn-takes-the-bait-on-diversity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Jan LaRue</em></p>
<p>The anti-Trump media are comparing President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> to <strong>Joseph Stalin</strong> because the president fires back at his critics.</p>
<p>An allusion to the wisdom of philosophers residing in the joint applies to media whiners: &#8220;if you can&#8217;t do the time, don&#8217;t do the slime.&#8221;</p>
<p>The president&#8217;s daily dose of name-calling by media includes the following: he&#8217;s Hitler, Stalin, racist, Mussolini, Mao, Pol Pot, racist, Nero, racist, mentally deranged, tyrant, racist, unfit, fascist, racist, dictator, hateful, racist, liar, illegitimate, colluder of all things Russian, schmuck, jackass, warmonger, and racist, and that&#8217;s just MSNBC.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/trump-and-the-media-war/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>President <strong>Trump</strong>’s popularity is soaring among voters in spite of round-the-clock attacks from CNN’s <strong>Jim Acosta</strong> and others in the Fake News industry.</p>
<p>“When they see the anger from the media – the seething rage against this president, it drives people to the president’s corner,” Republican National Committee spokesperson <strong>Kaley McEnany</strong> said on the <strong>Todd Starnes</strong> Radio Show.</p>
<p>McEnany cited a new Rasmussen <strong><a href="https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/998515/Donald-Trump-news-Obama-US-poll-Rasmussen-Reports-US-approval-rating">poll</a> </strong>showing President Trump has a current approval rating of 48%, while former President <strong>Barack Obama</strong> had an approval rating of 46% at the same point in his presidency.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/trump-is-more-popular-than-obama-and-its-driving-the-fake-newsers-nuts/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The left and Trump-opposing right are predictably annoyed at <strong>President Trump</strong>’s persistent description of the liberal media as “fake news.” Like it or not, the term as he uses it has merit.</p>
<p>Trump’s opponents hysterically claim he threatens the free press when he uses that term to describe them, just as they accuse him of other alleged abuses of constitutional power. In fact, unlike <strong>President Obama</strong>, Trump has governed within his constitutional authority.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/06/fake-news-is-not-a-fake-term/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The ripest for excision was “fake news.” “Let that sink in.”</p>

</em></p>
<p>The decline and lurch to the left of the Fox News Network provides an opening for any astute conservative billionaire: create a news network specifically intended to provide news from the viewpoint of most of America, which is to say the seventy-five percent of Americans who live in Flyover Country.  While the geographic concentration of political power in America is appalling, the geographic concentration of media power is much worse.</p>
<p>Because the media defy elections and, in fact, determine elections, having almost all national news pass through the tiny channel of the New York-to-Washington Beltway is toxic to our national life.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/06/the-need-for-a-middle-america-news-network/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Jon Schweppe</em></p>
<p>Generally, the first 50 days of the Trump Administration have been an absolute joy to watch. The media and the Left have been apoplectic as President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> largely honors his campaign promises and does exactly what he said he would do. Truthfully, Trump has been everything we hoped he would be and more.</p>
<p>Still, that’s not to say there haven’t been some disappointments. Here are four things I like and two things I dislike from the first 50 days:</p>

<p>First, <strong>President Trump </strong><a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/01/trump-shouts-down-reporter-refuses-to-take-cnn-question-in-bizarre-press-conference">refused</a> to take their questions.  Later, he tweeted that they were a network of &#8220;<a href="https://www.rt.com/news/379256-russia-cnn-spying-zakharova/">fake news</a>.&#8221;  Then they got caught in a fake news scandal, of the grossest sort, reporting some of the &#8220;<a href="http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/01/fake-news-buzzfeed-cnn-fall-trump-piss-story-4chan-prank/">golden showers</a>&#8221; phony dossier on Trump as straight news and getting caught and discredited.  Turned out it was just the product of some disgusting left-anarchist&#8217;s febrile imagination, and only Buzzfeed made a <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/01/the-media-spar-over-the-alleged-golden-shower-report">bigger fool of itself</a>.</p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/03/for-cnn-the-embarrassments-pile-up/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Todd Warner Huston</em></p>
<p>The watch words of the day seems to be “fake news” with liberals using the concept as a weapon to shut down all center right news and opinion outlets on both the Internet and TV. But the fact is, the liberal media invented “fake news” many decades before those on the right finally had enough of media bias and started their own news outlets.</p>
<p>Liberals have spent the entire month after Election Day proclaiming every non-liberal website or TV network to be purveyors of “fake news” even going so far as creating a list of sites they claim are all lies and publishing wildly biased “studies” of said sites to “prove” they are filled with “fake news.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/12/liberal-media-invented-fake-news-long-before-conservative-media-was-born/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<h3 class="field-subhead" style="text-align: center;"><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">Censoring conservative voices from social media.</span></em></h3>
<p><em>Written by Daniel Greenfield</em></p>
<p>Remember when Hillary Clinton won a landslide victory? The fake news media which predicted it in order to depress pro-Trump voter turnout certainly does. And so they’re out to fight “fake news.”</p>
<p>By fake news, they don’t mean their own raging torrent of misinformation and lies.</p>
<p>The media has gone to war against Facebook. While various supporters have blamed Hillary’s loss on everything from the FBI to internalized misogyny, the media has decided that Facebook is to blame.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/11/the-new-war-on-conservative-media/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
