Eric Weinstein schools us on the basics of journalism:

Now consider the “journalism” practiced by MSNBC when describing Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally to a 1939 Nazi rally.

MSNBC:

But that jamboree happening right now, you see it there on your screen in that place is particularly chilling because in 1939, more than 20,000 supporters of a different fascist leader, Adolf Hitler, packed the Garden for a so-called pro-America rally.

By the way, Trump’s “Nazi” rally featured many people who were prominent Democrats until recently, including Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, RFK, Jr.

Michael Shellenberger weighs in at Public:

Donald Trump held a racist, fascist, and anti-Semitic rally in Madison Square Garden in New York City on Sunday night, the media say. As proof, they pointed to a 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden, the participation of Tucker Carlson, who they say hosted a World War II revisionist on his podcast, Elon Musk, who they say permits anti-Semitism on X, and a comedian who joked that Latinos have a lot of children and Puerto Rico has a lot of trash.

But nothing about any of those things is racist, fascist, or anti-Semitic. Jimmy Carter was nominated for president at Madison Square Garden in 1976 and held a large rally there on October 30, a few days before the 1980 presidential election. Neither Carlson nor Musk have endorsed anti-Semitism or Holocaust denial. And the comedian’s joke about Latinos having many children is neither false, according to the US Census, nor racist, while the joke about trash was referring to the island’s genuine garbage crisis, not the Puerto Rican people… progressives and media elites used to view calling one’s opponents “Hitler” and fascist as taboo until recently. Liberals used to accuse each other of Godwin’s law, which states, “As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches.”
