Leftist Keith Olbermann is raging mad at the Associated Press for committing the rare crime of unbiased journalism.
Keep in mind that the AP is a left-wing outlet that has repeatedly broken the rules of unbiased journalism to hurt Republicans and prop up Democrats. The examples are numerous: here, here, here.
Nevertheless, on Thursday the left-wing paper published a decent-enough story titled “Cheers, cake and a fist-bump from GOP as Trump returns to Capitol Hill in a first since Jan. 6 riot.”
“Donald Trump made a triumphant return to Capitol Hill on Thursday, his first with lawmakers since the Jan.6, 2021 attacks, embraced by energized House and Senate Republicans who find themselves reinvigorated by his bid to retake the White House,” the first paragraph reads.
There was little bias about the story, save the reference to the Jan. 6th RIOT, not “attacks.” For the most part, the AP was simply factually reporting that Republicans were happy as heck to see former President Donald Trump on Capitol Hill.
But for just reporting the unadulterated, unfiltered, unbiased truth, the AP is now facing Olbermann’s notorious wrath:
I am surprised to find that the Associated @AP Press is still in business today after it published this wanton, biased, compromised, prostituted, unsurvivable pile of Trump-sucking propaganda yesterday.
Goebbels would have been embarrassed.

“I am surprised to find that the Associated @AP Press is still in business today after it published this wanton, biased, compromised, prostituted, unsurvivable pile of Trump-sucking propaganda yesterday,” he tweeted Friday. “Goebbels would have been embarrassed. Fire everybody.”
Anger management problems there, bud?
As of Saturday morning, Olbermann’s post boasted only about 2,000 likes, despite him having nearly a million followers. SAD.
Meanwhile, virtually all of the comment replies to his post were stinging rebukes of his disturbed, crazy left-wing insanity.
Look:
Go take your medication, you POS, pedophile protector!

Dude, you have serious mental issues. How will you be able to deal with them after Trump’s inevitable win in November?

As opposed to the propaganda spewed every day on Morning Joe and other networks that you support? Your projection is astounding.

Comments say it all has been. Nobody cares what you think. And your “fire everybody” statement….Goebbels would be proud. But just him.
You just put a threat out to “journalists” to not say anything positive about Trump. Shame on you has been. #TrumpBestPresidentEver

But it wasn’t just him! Thousands — THOUSANDS — of unhinged leftists rushed to the social media platform X on Thursday to blast the AP for conducting journalism. How dare they!
Here’s just a sample of the deranged left in action. Take note of those who responded by showing the AP the ridiculously biased, goofy manner in which they would have written the story:
Triumphant? That’s the word you chose?

“Trump, now a convicted felon, returned to the Capitol for the first time since inciting an insurrection in 2021 that caused at least nine deaths and left hundreds of Capitol Police officers injured.”
Fixed it, @AP.

Donald Trump claimed America is not special, called Milwaukee horrible, and suggested throwing the income tax over for… tariffs (??) and hand shake line looked like something Pol Pot would stage. But, do go on with “triumphant” and “reinvigorated”.

When did the Republican party buy the Associated Press?
That’s how you write about a convicted felon and his clown show in the House and Senate who have down themselves to be completely unable to govern?
How many Speakers have they been through this year alone?
The Biden…

Convicted felon Donald Trump met privately with lawmakers in DC for the first time after attempting an autocoup & inciting an insurrection. He was welcomed by politicians who participated in his conspiracy, still wish to retain power, or fear the consequences of rebuking him.

The Trump campaign responded to this insanity by blaming President Joe Biden and his rabid supporters.
“Joe Biden and his supporters are now showing they are anti-press and in favor of punishing anyone who does not parrot their propaganda. They are a threat to democracy,” a Trump campaign spokesperson told Fox News.
