Greg Gutfeld treats us to another helping of media schadenfreude on 9-11. It is amazing the lengths the media will go to in portraying themselves as cowards and dilettantes. They think it makes the look sensitive. It doesn’t. It makes them look childish.

Gutfeld: “According to Vice News, which apparently still exists, folks in the media are struggling with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by the January 6 breach of the capitol. In fact, some reporters won’t even return to the building and others are in therapy.
One long-time reporter, meaning he’s old, had to retire soon after the attack, and others can’t sleep. Maybe they saw their ratings. One Bloomberg News reporter named Eric Wassan claims feels unsafe in his house, which is weird because he lives in DC where people feel unsafe when they leave their house.
Apparently seeing a clown in a Viking hat knocking over a bottle of white-out on Dick Durban’s desk is tantamount to being mauled by ISIS in your kitchen. They’re more distraught than the Kardashians during a silicon shortage. Thank God we haven’t had a war on our soil yet, how would they be able to cover it? There would be a run on scented candles and dream journals.
But can you blame these poor souls? When you hear about January 6, you’re convinced it’s worse than 9/11. Perhaps it is, but to them.
MATTHEW DOWD ON MSNBC: ‘To me, though there was less loss of life on January 6, January 6 was worse than 9/11, because it’s continued to rip our country apart and give permission for people to pursue autocratic means. So I think we’re in a much worse place than we’ve been, and as I’ve said to you before, I think we’re in the most perilous place in time since the advent of the Civil War.’ He’s just crazy.
Yeah, to him it was worse than 9/11. Tell it to the families of the 9/11 first responders. But that’s our media. They’ve never been good at priorities. A group of largely unarmed housewives and dads walk into the Capitol, and that’s somehow worse than three planes flying into buildings killing thousands. Now, I condemn what happened on January 6. Early on I said when Barbarians are at the gates, the Republicans have to be the gates, not the barbarians. That day, they weren’t.
But the media’s beating the story to death like it’s a teenager caught shoplifting in Tehran. Because it’s a nice distraction from the horrible s— they caused over the past decade. The crime, the violence, the poisoned education system. January 6 is their shield from blame. I wonder what the Angry White Male thinks.
Tom Shillue, Angry White Male: Hey guys, one more time, sure, why not? (holds up egg) This is me, this is my brain, this is the media. This (puts egg in frying pan) is me watching stories that the media does about themselves. Any questions? Come on, you’ve got questions, don’t you? I’ll take questions. He never takes questions, but I wonder what the Angry Black Male thinks. Tyrus, angry black male: (Sleeping) … Go to sleep.
The best advice if you can’t sleep. I’m wondering, did any of these reporters experience any psychological trauma during the riots of last year. Other than having to read or watch their own work.”
