A solution to America's increasingly deranged news media

WND Managing Editor David Kupelian on counteracting anti-Trump hysteria

Dear friend of WND,

We are living in extraordinary – almost surreal – times. Although millions of good, decent Americans rightly concluded they had "dodged a bullet" in November 2016 with the stunning and historic election of Donald Trump, saving them from the curse of a Hillary Clinton presidency, they are nevertheless appalled at the ongoing efforts to undo the results and promise of that election, most recently via the disgraceful impeachment sham.

Understand: What we cryptically call "the left" – code for a godless, revolutionary movement steeped in pathological anger and churning rebellion against America as a uniquely blessed Judeo-Christian, constitutional republic – is at war not just with the Trump administration, but with America herself. And it will use all the forces at its disposal, from the "mainstream" media and Hollywood celebrity wackos to activist courts and vicious street violence, to discredit and block every good, sensible and desperately needed policy the current administration tries to implement.

As respected columnist Dennis Prager has written, what is now unfolding before our eyes is nothing short of a "second civil war" – and, yes, he means a real war. "In fact," says Prager, apart from the issue of slavery, "Americans are more divided morally, ideologically and politically today than they were during the Civil War."

Now, after almost three years of Trump's first term as president, we are experiencing a time of shameless lies and nonstop outrage and disruption by the desperately unhinged left, aided by the rest of our ruling class. The Democrats' impeachment farce is just the latest phase of a deeply un-American, unconstitutional, and immoral ongoing coup d'etat.

But who is arguably the most important player of all in determining the outcome of this new civil war? After all, Trump will NOT be removed from office by impeachment. It takes a two-thirds supermajority of U.S. senators to convict in an impeachment trial. That means as many as 19 of the current 53 Republican senators could theoretically defect to the dark side, and Trump still would not be removed from office. (All that is needed, constitutionally, is 34 votes to acquit.)

Therefore, the true purpose of the impeachment charade is to poison voters, to make sure Trump loses his re-election bid to one of the lunatic Democrat presidential hopefuls next November.

And who or what is most responsible for how the American voting public interprets the madness now unfolding in Washington, D.C.?

That would be the news media.

As a veteran journalist, I can say unequivocally that today's "mainstream" news establishment is more unprofessional, unprincipled, unhinged, biased, lazy, dishonest, corrupt – and, in some cases, flat-out insane – than at any time during my 37 years as a newsman. And even more to the point, they're totally aligned with today's far-left Democratic Party.

As I wrote in "The Marketing of Evil," in today's America "no institution is more complicit in making evil appear good and good appear evil" than the news media.

For that very reason, if real America is going to ultimately prevail in this "second civil war" – if there's to be any real chance to permanently reclaim our nation, including making sure we have a free and fair election next year – one thing that is critically needed is a genuinely truth-oriented, pro-American alternative media.

For 22 years, WND has been at the forefront of this movement, having in large measure launched the "real news" revolution as the first independent online news-gathering company.

Started by a team of long-time veterans of the "mainstream media," WND took on the establishment and has been fighting the good fight ever since – exposing everything from Deep State corruption to voter fraud to "drag queen story hour" to Big Tech's hostile takeover of the internet – all in the best tradition of American journalism.

Not that this has made the establishment press any more responsible. In fact, things have gotten much worse!

Almost alone among today's journalism organizations, WND has summoned the raw courage and professionalism to report crucial stories that almost no one else – liberal or conservative – will touch. Sometimes we have paid a heavy price, as most pioneers do. For example, what other major league media organization defends, in a professional journalistic way, the Judeo-Christian moral foundation of America and doesn’t pretend sexual anarchy and perversion are somehow normal and wholesome?

WND is the oldest independent news website in America, and I've been here as managing editor for almost all of it (since 1999). Our journalists are the best – experienced professionals who have worked with all the top organizations, from the Associated Press to ABC to major newspapers and newsmagazines – and yet there's one big difference: WND has a pro-American, pro-Constitution, pro-biblical, pro-common-sense worldview.

We made a real difference in the 2016 election – reporting, for example, all the incredible stories documenting the Clintons' epic corruption, which the establishment media barely touched. And we will, God willing, make an even bigger difference now during the "second civil war" – being waged by the progressive D.C. establishment in response not just to the Trump administration, but to the great American "sleeping giant" that awakened during the 2016 presidential election season.

Friends, you cannot have a free country without a free press. However, as you have no doubt heard, Big Tech, from Google to Facebook to Amazon to Twitter, is committed not only to censoring and suppressing truthful journalism, but to entirely reshaping the world in its progressive, socialist, "woke" image – starting with defeating Donald Trump next November.

You read that right: Big Tech's two most urgent tasks right now are defeating Donald Trump in the 2020 election and making dissenting voices disappear. They're still kicking themselves for having failed during the 2016 election and don't intend to make the same mistake again. Incredibly, says top Google researcher Robert Epstein Ph.D., Google is now poised to swing as many as 15 million votes in next year's presidential election – toward the Democratic candidate!

Not if WND can help it! We need to continue to sound the alarm and expose the efforts of Big Tech to transform America into a pathetic, fearful, conflicted, obedient, politically correct progressive version of the spectacular, prosperous and uniquely free nation it once was.

What else can I say? If you value WND, please help us. We have been suppressed, banned, defamed, sued, maligned, hacked and attacked in every way imaginable – but we're still here! I guess we must be doing something right.

WND is blessed with a large and loyal readership; millions of people have freely benefited from its tireless and courageous journalism for over two decades. Please consider helping us with the most generous donation you can manage. And remember, if you choose the monthly option for your donation, that helps us enormously as it provides a regular revenue base we can count on.

Time is short, friends. This is a time for action – for all of us. Our adversaries are not holding back, and we need to not hold back either. I pray you will be inspired to join with us. 

Sincerely,

David Kupelian
