<p>I cannot think of a time since 9/11 that American newscasts have been so myopically focused on one story. ; Granted, the Hamas attack on Israel is a BIG story with ramifications in all directions. ; But the virtual 24/7 coverage is blocking out most other news – even big news. ;</p>



<p>The worst part is that there is little change in the facts from minute to minute. ; The talking heads of telly-world are merely repeating … repeating … repeating. ; Occasionally, there is something new to report – but not often.</p>



<p>There is also the same politicization by the newsies. ; Even as they say that the war in Israel should not be politicized, they (mostly the leftwing folks) grossly politicize it along the lines of their partisan narratives. ; The only apparent reason they cover the House Speaker election at all is to demonize Republicans.</p>



<p>We see the same stories … the same images … the same words … from different people. ; Normally schedule programs on cable news are pre-empted for more … nothing new news.</p>



<p>Nothing about the crime problem in our major cities. ; It has not abated – just not reported. ; Nothing about the thousands of people – including a few criminals, drug dealers and terrorists – that are crossing the America’s southern border. ; Nothing about inflation. ;</p>



<p>Most notably … there is nothing being reported about the war in Ukraine. ; Is that still going on? ; And that brings up another subject. ; If I were President Zelenskyy, I would be very upset and worried.</p>



<p>Not only is nothing being reported of the Russian invasions of Ukraine but compare the past coverage of that war with what we see today. ; Contrast the official American response to the attack on Israel and the response to the attack on Ukraine – two American allies attacked by brutal and merciless – and evil &#8212; forces.</p>



<p>President Biden did not call for all out victory over Putin. ; He did not – in the strongest terms – call Putin evil. ; The media was not flooded with heartbreaking stories of dead Ukrainian men, women and children. ; There were no serial interviews with fearful and tearful survivors of Russian war crimes. ; There were no strong statements that America had the back of Ukraine – and an immediate flow of money and every type of military equipment and weapons in support of the Ukraine defense. ; There were no 24/7 videos of the atrocities committed by the barbaric Russian military. ; There was no sending American war ships into the Black Sea.</p>



<p>What Ukraine got from the Biden Administration was a weak commitment carried out with at too little/too late support policy. ; Biden did not even deliver all the sanctions he promised at the onset of the war. ; Biden is clearly standing behind Israel – and waaaay behind Ukraine.</p>



<p>I wonder who is winning the War in Ukraine? ; From the White House and the media, it is … crickets.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>

Ukraine news lost in the fog of war
