Czechs Keep Biased DW Off-Balance!
It was 10pm last night when I got fed up with CNN’s endless yapping about that crotchety old Congressbat in the silly cowboy hat…
===
….who thinks an ‘empty barrel’ is a racist slur – demented ould biddy! So I switched to DW for some Germanic-style bias.
Nor was I disappointed.
=======
======
Their mustachioed newsman was reporting how the Czech ‘populist’ candidate, Mr. Babis, was ahead in the legislative elections.
As ever no effort to explain what’s meant by populist!
—
======
It has, after all, no real meaning, except that a party pays attention to what the people think, and is therefore often quite popular!
However, usually when there’s some party in the news that’s derided as ‘populist,’ the Media-Creeps throw in an extra abusive epithet –
‘far-right!’
Think of AfD, or Austria’s FPO, or Marine in France. The Media-Creeps use the adjectives as more or less interchangeable, just one of the ways they slant the news against patriots!
But suddenly, we heard that, besides those ‘populists…’
=========
Okamura (left) Babis (right)
————-
– there was a far-right party, led by Tomio Okamura.
It’s called ‘Freedom and Direct Democracy,’ and if you study his message, no wonder he did so well, winning over ten percent of the vote!
“We are living under a total EU dictatorship,” the 45-year-old politician said in a pub in Prague’s historical center. “Not even the Soviet Union dared to dictate to us who should live here and who shouldn’t.
How a Tokyo-Born Outsider Became the Face of Czech Nationalism
And it’s hard to deploy the usual racist smear against the son of a Czech mother and a Japanese-Korean father...
How confusing for DW and all the other left-lib propaganda channels.
I checked another source. Not much better. According to Radio Prague, the winning party, ANO, has a leader who is, wait for it…
‘divisive..’
That’s another word batted around against leaders who stray from the preferred song-sheet… Andrej Babiš: the divisive central figure in Czech politics -as if the job of a party leader is NOT to define clearly how his party differs from the others.
As I said, at length, not long ago…
Prick Up Your Ears When You Hear ‘Divisive!’
…what else is an election for, if not to reflect in parliaments the division of opinions among the electorate?
However, off-balance though DW might have been, that Herr Moustache still bravely stuck to their engrained bias.
Talking to a Czech analyst, on Okamura’s success, he asked –
…if there was a fear that it might push the party’s anti-EU, anti-migrant, views into the mainstream… .
Seriously!
If I had asked if there was HOPE that the SPD might push sensible views into the mainstream, you’d say I was biased. Fair enough. I’m a blogger.
BUT Deutsche Welle claims to be impartial, objective, in its coverage of news.
So FEAR?
Not a ‘possibility.’
Not a ‘chance.’
Just…

Crotchety old Congressbat!?
I love that, sums her up so well.
Sorry, dunno enough about the Czechs to comment on their election but I am going to speed your description of that nasty woman around my contacts.

Herr Moustache is Matt Hermann and he would not keep his DW job for very long if he is not liberal.
He is not the worst in DW,
That will be Melinda Crane who is a foreigner from America but rises high because she is so left.. ,
