Emergency Saturday Broadcast: The American Dystopia Has Arrived

Wall Street Journal, Confirmation Bias, and Portland Violence

The Wall Street Journal is accused of confirmation bias for initially reporting that the host was inciting violence on January 6th, a claim later retracted after video evidence was provided. Norm Pattis contrasts the focus on the Capitol with the ongoing violence against federal property in Portland, Oregon. He questions why the Justice Department has not taken similar aggressive action against left-wing militants on the West Coast.
