Democrat: 60 Minutes DeSantis Piece “Intentionally False”
There is no longer any standard of value in the MSM other than wokeness. This frees CBS’s odious 60 Minutes to reach new depths of mendaciousness as it kneecaps those seen as threats to the liberal establishment. Ron DeSantis scares these apparatchiks so much that they got carried away, causing even Democrat politicians to object.
The segment featured reporter Sharyn Alfonsi ambushing DeSantis at a press conference last month and aggressively questioning him using a misleading narrative…
Alfonsi tried to suggest that Publix, the largest grocery store chain in Florida, had engaged in pay to play by donating money to DeSantis’ campaign in exchange for being awarded a contract to distribute vaccines in the state.
DeSantis aptly responded to Alfonsi’s false accusations and laid them to rest. That part was left on the cutting room floor. Daily Wire has the full transcript, highlighting what CBS did not want us to hear. The selective editing takes lying by omission to a new extreme of deceptiveness.
Even Democrats back DeSantis against CBS’s outrageous lies:
This is Jared Moskowitz, director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management. He’s a Democrat, served as one in the state legislature until 2019, and campaigned for Gore and Obama. He’s not falling for this absolute garbage, and neither should you. https://t.co/Ng3pyNI87W

Moskowitz isn’t alone. Dave Kerner, Democrat Mayor of Palm Beach County felted compelled to issue a statement:
The reporting was not just based on bad information — it was intentionally false. I know this because I offered to provide my insight into Palm Beach County’s vaccination efforts and 60 minutes declined. They know that the Governor came to Palm Beach County and met with me and the County Administrator and we asked to expand the state’s partnership with Publix to Palm Beach County. We also discussed our own local plans to expand mass vaccination centers throughout the county, which the Governor has been incredibly supportive. We asked and he delivered. They had that information, and they left it out because it kneecaps their narrative.
We have confronted this pandemic for over a year. Our residents, like all Americans, are tired. And the media is making it worse. They are hellbent on dividing us for cheap views and clicks. 60 Minutes should be ashamed.
Leftists have a big advantage in that they control the “mainstream” media. But like Joe Biden’s radical handlers, they are overplaying their hand. It has already become common knowledge that what we are presented with as “news” is liberal propaganda. As people begin to realize how shamelessly CBS et al. lie to us, the MSM will lose the last of its credibility. People will tune out their duckspeak and look for more reliable sources of information.
