Craige McMillan huffs in his Sept. 29 WorldNetDaily column:
Fake news is lying. The reporters and editors generating it may not even recognize that. Why? Because they have spent so much time lying to themselves, they believe their lies are true. In their minds the policies implemented over the past eight years, built on the previous 60 years, were almost ready to start working! We have to try just a little harder! Do more for the cause. Change the outcome of the election. Do whatever it takes. Use the intelligence agencies against the opposition. Buy off the world’s madmen with “peaceful” nuclear programs, so they won’t build bombs. Integrate criminal illegals so they will be changed by a better life. Run up crushing debt and make the rich pay for it.
The problem with the mainlying media is that they believe their own lies. They can’t change because they see no need to. They have lied to themselves for so long that to them, fake news is the real truth, and if it didn’t happen that way, well it should have. “Make it so” versus “beam me up, Scotty!”
Has McMillan forgotten who publishes his column? WND is among the leading fake-news purveyors in America, which we’ve proven again and again and again. WND’s obviously believe their own lies; otherwise, they wouldn’t be forwarding them.
Why doesn’t McMillan hold the publisher of his column to the same standards as the rest of the media? Because he wants to continue being published, of course. He doesn’t have the conviction of his own beliefs to speak truth to power.
Nevertheless, he continues with his selective lecturing:
Lying is a sickness that first infects and destroys the liar’s own soul. From there, the cancer branches outward, infecting those closest to the liar, those who work around the liar, and finally the public at large, which in the case of media types creates a large pool of emotionally disabled individuals.
Lying is a spiritual sickness. It starts at the beginning, when we first tell ourselves there is no Creator to whom we are responsible for our lives. Left untreated, the condition is eternally fatal. Only the Bride can effect the cure. Only she has the power. But is she ready?
Would McMillan ever confront Joseph Farah about the spiritual sickness embodied by the lies his website publishes? Doubtful — not if he wants to continue to have a column at WND, anyway.
