"You tell me how and why corporate media constantly speaks from the same exact script this way, verbatim. #KamalaIsJOY"

ADDED: Byron York has "Joy! Irrational exuberance soars to new levels" (Washington Examiner). Excerpt:
In Harrisworld these days, joy is everywhere — in food, in clothing, in campaigning, in everything. NPR loved Walz’s “folksy fashion sense — Carhartts and camo.” And everyone, just everyone, loves Walz’s apparently voracious, just-folks appetite. “Tim Walz loves food,” declared the Atlantic. Corn dogs, cinnamon rolls, his very own “Turkey Trot Tater-Tot Hotdish” recipe, and more, all washed down with prodigious quantities of milk. It all brings joy, the Atlantic declared — “cold milk on a hot day; a perfectly cracked egg; a steaming casserole dish full of God knows what.” By being so joyous about food, the publication concluded, “Harris and Walz are making theirs the candidacy of terrestrial pleasure and straightforward abundance.”

They don't even try to disguise it. Hubris.

"You tell me how and why corporate media constantly speaks from the same exact script this way, verbatim."

“All within the party, nothing outside the party, nothing against the party.”

Sounds better in the original Italian, of course.

Original Mike said...

Clearly it's coordinated. There is no other explanation.
It's disturbing.

When confronted, Kamala stated that she would definitely have a conversation about this.

Breezy said...

Money. Who are the patrons of our beloved MSM?

Achilles said...

Anyone supporting Harris/Walz is just a dumb clapping seal.

Seals at the aquarium are smarter than the average democrat. It is shocking they even remember to breath.

Sebastian said...

"You tell me how and why corporate media constantly speaks from the same exact script this way, verbatim." Maybe a tad disingenuous? They get their talking points. They like Dems to win. Propaganda is their business model. QED.

Weird Joy

Journolist. Never. Died. Just like GARM will simply change its name and its tactics.

Fully automated luxury communism has infiltrated institutions and the call is coming from inside the house, Jill.

Who indeed.

They don't have to. They stole the last election, and the only weapons we brought to the protest were our cell phones, which they tracked us with and put everybody in gulags. They know we're stupid cows.

"They get their talking points."

Likely method for now the coordination works. They don't sit down together. They get the dems talking points and they just print them, mostly unaltered. It's lazy.

Even their democrat masters probably roll their eyes; 'Jeez, guys. Could you at least try and disguise it.'

Dixcus said...

What is disturbing is that on Monday morning, you're going to go back into work and fund all this. You are the person creating your children's future and it's BLEAK. You are ruining it for them. You should be ashamed.

Dixcus said...

They don't need "supporters." They can steal elections with the assurity that you will do NOTHING about that. Many people saw the shooter getting ready to kill Donald Trump and none of them did anything to stop it. They just stood around, or yelled at the cops his location as if they're going to do anything. Look around guy. We deserve this.

Iman said...

The media in the U.S. has completed its mutation from the Fourth Estate into the Fifth Column. Fascist, chauvinistic government tools.

retail lawyer said...

Ask that Journolist guy.

Mason G said...

'Jeez, guys. Could you at least try and disguise it.'

They probably could, but it wouldn't matter to the target audience. So why bother?

Lucien said...

“Joy” is the word of the week. First it was “prosecute”, then “weird”, then “terrified”. (Trump is terrified to debate a Black Woman!)
“Joy” is pretty good, because it provides cover for her (weird) laughter. She’s laughing out of joy, dontcha see.

Well, we can settle on a campaign song now:

Imagine depending on others to tell you when you should be joyful. You'd think that would be something you didn't need to be told.

Goldenpause said...

Somehow the MSM still profess puzzlement as to why they are despised as hacks.

Don't we know the answer already? from the Jeffrey Toobin incident, where several media people were on a zoom call to coordinate how to respond to something or another. It is very easy to get a bunch of people together in a virtual meeting and give out the marching orders for the day's story.

Walz might not make it through the campaign with all the free food near his snout

Wince said...

I'm surprised in this room full of Boomers that nobody has mentioned The Joy of Sex.

john mosby said...

There definitely was joy in that conference call!

Gusty Winds said...

There is no bigger cause to life's hardships we have all experienced than false hope. False hope; false joy; it's easy to sell, but hard to deliver. The evil of the snake oil salesman...is the false hope. Same thing is being sold by the Democrat Party and it's coordinated media.

Gusty Winds said...

Hilarious!

Ambrose said...

Who's bingo card has "Ode to Joy" being rolled out for Harris Walz? It's only a matter of days.

Wow! He is so close to putting ketchup on his steak! Wait, would that be wrong??

LibertarianLeisure said...

Last week's word was 'weird,' this week's word was 'joy.'

wendybar said...

You mean like this??
Ten years ago Michael Brown died, and Black Lives Matter based on the “hands up, don’t shoot” lie was born

“Hands up, don’t shoot” is a lie that won’t die because it’s a lie that has been the core Black Lives Matter narrative for a decade. Black Lives Matter was launched based on a fraud, and that fraud continues to be perpetrated by people who are wholly ignorant or wholly dishonest."

"In reality, Brown was a low-level street thug who had just strong-arm robbed a convenience store:"

For some reason, THIS is the only comment thread that google will accept my comment.

Then you have NBC news outright lying, just because THEY refuse to cover him.... 

Trump War Room

@TrumpWarRoom
Vaughn, quit lying.

President Trump has done multiple sit-down interviews in the past month:


@MariaBartiromo
on 8/4

@IngrahamAngle
on 7/29

@JesseBWatters
on 7/22

@HARRISFAULKNER
on 7/15

To say nothing of the hour long press conference he did *yesterday,* the NABJ sit-down interview, a presidential debate, and countless call-in interviews.

You are fake news.

Slightly off topic - I remember Hubert H. Humphrey - "the politics of happiness, the politics of purpose, and the politics of joy."

Where's the verbatim part?

Tim Walz eats real grown-up human food!

Just like a real adult!

Just like an actual human being!



I don't care for all the Kamala Harris/Willie Brown gossip, but this "Joy" campaign deserves a slap-down.

Was Kamala part of Willie's "Joy Division"?

Was she one of his "filles de joie"?

"Joy! Irrational exuberance soars to new levels"

I buy the “irrational” part
