MSM news is entertainment. Entertainment requires a story. The media creates a story and sticks to it regardless of truth or accuracy.

Some examples:
● Hillary Clinton is unlikable. (Pure sexism)
● Al Gore is a liar (after years of being called a boy scout).
● George W Bush is a good natured dope. (He was a terrible president but he is not stupid.)
● Gerald Ford is clumsy and stupid. (He was probably the most athletic president and as house minority leader was respected by both parties.
● Joe Biden is senile because he sometimes forgets a name. (A lack of verbal ability does not mean a lack of cognitive ability).

I don't know what narrative the MSM will invent for Harris but we must remain vigilant and stop it before it becomes widely accepted.

1. You know this one's coming

She pushy or bossy some kind of way to imply she should be in the kitchen.

2. They will go after her sex life

I can almost guarantee it.

They will want to make her out to be an untrustworthy slut. She had a relationship with someone who technically wasn’t divorced yet and they will throw that chum into the water.

3. If that is so, it will be a whispering campaign only

They can't put that on the airwaves like they did "But her e-mails."

5. Already on Hate Radio. "Slept her way to the top" narrative in full swing.

Affirmative action, DEI, CRT, reparations, crazy laugh, too weak as a woman to stand up against our enemies.

Oh, and the entire process of replacing a candidate who has stepped down is "illegal" and violates the Constitutional rights of people who voted for Biden in the primaries. (We all know how much they care about protecting voting rights, don't we?}

The usual conservative attacks. Women and POC need not apply.

They're throwing all the ketchup at the wall to see what sticks.

6. 'slut shaming' will righteously energize lots of folks

Who will gleefully point out that the republican Felon is, in their frame of reference, a Colossal Bigly sinner-man sexist-pig slut.

4. I heard a classic this morning. "I don't mind a woman for president I just don't want that woman"
