The release of some documents related to Jeffrey Epstein in recent days has been, above all else, a media story. Political leaders released certain files involving the sex trafficker, knowing what the media would do: grab a few lines out of context and play them up in hopes of getting audiences to click, watch, listen, and read. In the process, it made a mess and sowed confusion.

He also highlights the hypocrisy of the BBC’s apology to Trump, and takes on a billion dollar news conglomerate that pushed the “genocide” libel about Israel.
