The pedos own the media.

Because anyone with half a brain has known this for ages. Trump and Epstein were business partners in the international child sex trafficking ring.

Wore it out. We’ve heard nothing but trump=pedo forever now, people are fatigued with that information.

It doesn’t generate clicks anymore. So the news doesn’t care.

However, that mental 14 year old shitlord trump trash talking Talarico? They love covering that drivel.

Why is the Media Ignoring the [...] allegations?

Because Americans ignored similar allegations last time and voted the shithead into power. If they didn't care then, why should they care now? Trump was a convicted felon and an adjudicated rapist when they elected him. New allegations are just resume padding.

Edit: I meant rapist, not racist (though Trump is both)

People forgot that major news outlets are now owned by a handful of oligarchs. So, it's in their every interest to put the story under the rug.

...because allegations don't get it done.

We need him bang-to-rights. No wiggle room. Conclusive evidence. He's the most powerful man in the world and he shrugs off allegations.

Legacy media loves Trump. They created him and they will never betray him. Legacy media are all nazi cockroaches who should be treated as such.

Support independent media.

It's owned by the Epstein class. You want them to expose themselves to anyone that isn't an under age girl in duress?

Because Trump will sic FCC chair Brendan Carr on them, if they mention anything "bad" about Dear Leader.

Mainstream media's been cucked by a NY conman grifter with a penchant for lawsuits.

In the US, it’s probably because most of the mainstream media is owned by conservatives.

Examples:

• Rupert Murdoch owns Fox News, NY Post, and the Wall Street Journal.

• CNN and CBS News (as weak as a number of other channels) are run by the Ellison family. There has been talk of making them sell CNN to someone else, but it hasn’t happened yet.

• The Washington Post is owned by Amazon mogul, Jeff Bezos.

• The Hill and NewsNation are owned by Nextstar (who also own the largest number of broadcast tv stations). Founded and run by Perry Sook.

The media is owned by billionaires with an agenda. They shape the narrative for all of us, for the most part.

For the same reason they ignored the stunning old Trump-Epstein Allegations:

Because their owners on the surrounding pages doing the exact same thing.

Because some of those who work forces, work in news offices.

They're not.

If you mean why don't CNN, Fox, NBC, MSNBC, and whatever other mainstream cable 24-hour news aggregator consistently report on it... They're not really news agencies. They work and live on ratings. So they report whatever makes them money and should not be treated as news.

Because the actual House Judiciary Committee report debunks his lies in the middle of an election -- and brings the receipts.

There are a lot of people even on Lemmy that are acting bored, "Why is this news?" and the like, but honestly anyone who is interested should read it for themselves: the REAL news is not in the headlines, or even in the articles that follow. The real news is in the redactions that have been uncovered in the report, what they hid, and the ability to view it as a whole instead of the usual media trickle truthing.

Every time someone posts a link, there's at least one or two people going, "We already knew this!" No. What you knew were the broad strokes. See page 25, for example: everyone knows Katie Johnson sued him for rape and then withdrew her suit, but you missed that Trump and Epstein have been linked to each other by the FBI in the context of child rape for almost twenty years.

If you want the quick overview of what I personally have noticed so far, look at my post history. From the day it came out I have been throwing it out there. But honestly, just skim the report. Or even just the press release, which is a shittily formatted but fairly good synopsis.

And when you do read further, keep in mind that this House report was never intended to be a fully-argued prosecution: rather, it is a specific, and incredibly damning, rebuttal against the current DoJ claims that there is not enough evidence to investigate known facts further. DoJ insists that there is no further evidence, no reason to investigate any further because no investigations = no prosecutions. This report is the Dem answer to that. It lays that purpose out up front, it says that throughout, and it wraps up with that in the end.

For every single person who brays, "No one will investigate!" that's just a lie. The MAGA Republicans currently in control of the US government refuse to investigate. This report is the Dem answer to that obvious lie. And they bring the proof.

No media article I have seen so far even got that little bit right. By design, I suspect.

That's what we get for relying on the media. If you want to know why it's news, read it yourself.

Also, you should know that Trump isn't alone in this. Vladimir Putin has a known predilection for little boys: that is the suspected reason for the fact that a man fluent in German and rising in KGB ranks never got posted abroad but was kept home, and why his official records are full of strange lacunae. It's not just Putin's "statecraft" that makes Trump love him like a daddy. Let's talk about that too.

Who owns the media?

Because their masters are just jealous they didn't get to rape a thirteen year old virgin.

Because there is nothing new there. Trump, a pedophile? I knew that already.

It's truly a puzzler. Almost like the media is bought and sold by the rich. But that can't be it. Right? Right?!

because trump bought them out

"Flood the zone" is quite literally the most effective political strategy in the past 100 years.

None of the new allegations are surprising at all. Anyone with two eyes who saw that video of Trump and Epstein at that party knows exactly what was happening.

But let's be real...what batshit crazy news could come out tomorrow that would really shock you? Right now, a few days before election day, we're all expecting what, troops at the polls? Martial law? Another Jan. 6? Do you really think the Trump ballroom or The Kennedy Center are real issues, or were they just looking for crazy shit to distract everyone? Lake America? Gulf of America?

Every day it's just more on top of more. New Epstein allegations are just noise on top of the already existing noise at this point.

I don't know how we can go back from this after how well "flood the zone" worked...

The same ones they have always ignored?
