JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: RIGHT-WING GOBBLEDYGOOK ABOUT LIBERAL MEDIA AND TRUMP'S ANNOUNCED WITHDRAWAL FROM SYRIA

“Trump Approves Full Withdrawal From Syria, 'Liberal' Media Furious”



Well, at least you put "liberal" in quotation marks.

No genuinely liberal source could be furious over the United States leaving one of its needless imperial wars.

The true meaning of the word "liberal" makes that a given.

However, in the United States, there are virtually no liberals, and there absolutely are no liberal (major) media.

I can't even imagine what publication or broadcast someone could be thinking of in writing those words.

The New York Times?

Good God, the paper that provides a drumbeat of support for every imperial war?

The paper that stands unqualified behind the brutal imperial enterprise called Israel?

The paper that supports the likes of Hillary Clinton in the Democratic Party?

Virtually all statements about "liberals" in the United States are gobbledygook.
