WSJ Gatekeeper Fumes As She Admits To WEF/Davos They Lost Control Over Narratives
Thanks to the freedom of the internet and State-manufactured lies being exposed 24/7, legacy media outlets no longer have a monopoly on information and narratives.
Case in point, during a WEF discussion at Davos entitled "Defending Truth," Wall St. Journal EIC Emma Tucker lamented this loss of control over 'the facts,' as Modernity.news reports.
"I think there’s a very specific challenge for the legacy brands, like the New York Times and like the Wall Street Journal," Emma Tucker said, adding "If you go back really not that long ago, as I say, we owned the news. We were the gatekeepers, and we very much owned the facts as well."
As always, they continue to blame Russia! Russia! Russia!
European Commission VP Věra Jourová also piped up during the same discussion, calling the rise of "disinformation" a "security threat," and suggesting that "It was part of the Russian military doctrine that they will start information war, and we are in it now."
Like when the Hillary Clinton campaign used a former (?) British spook's Russian source to fabricate a hoax against Donald Trump, which was peddled through the Wall Street Journal and every single other legacy media outlet? That kind of information war? Or when 51 former US intelligence officials used disinformation to influence the 2020 election, suggesting the NY Post's Hunter Biden laptop bombshell was Russian meddling?
As we highlighted earlier in the week, Jourová has spent her Davos time meeting the heads of the likes of YouTube and Meta and ensuring they “play by the rules,” while her boss, Ursula von der Leyen called for overarching globalist control over the flow of all information in the digital age.
