"Sanewashing" Kamala Harris

9/9/24:
The media has come up with another political narrative, as if they need more. This one is "sanewashing'. According to Columbia Journalism Review (CJR) "sanewashing" means “attempting to downplay a person or idea’s radicality to make it more palatable to the general public.” But the left-wing media concern is that the term is being applied to media coverage of Donald Trump. Let me get this straight. The left-wing media is concerned that the presidential candidate and former President of the United states, who gets 90%+ negative press from them, is getting too much "sanewashing", making him more palatable to the general public. The mass media does not care how obvious they are. It is amazing they are in the middle of an effort to "sanewash" Kamala Harris radical record to make her more palatable to the general public. Could it be that the media doesn't realize they are doing it. Their focus is on making sure they do nothing that might be the least positive for the Democrat opposition, Donald Trump. This is really too easy. More From CJR:
