“First Battle: Inside the Mainstream Media’s War on Trump’s Presidency” is an illuminating exposé that uncovers the hidden agenda behind the mainstream media’s relentless assault on former President Donald Trump. Drawing from an extensive collection of over one hundred articles, Kriek delves into the deep-seated animosity towards Trump within the media landscape and reveals the motives behind their biased reporting.
The book goes beyond mere analysis by exploring the tactics of fake news and framing, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of how these techniques were employed to shape public opinion and manipulate political discourse. With a specific focus on the final days of Trump’s presidency, including the hotly contested 2020 elections, the events of January 6th, and the subsequent inauguration of President Joe Biden, Kriek presents a detailed examination of the media’s deliberate misrepresentation and distortion of facts.
