Media pundits have clutched their pearls at Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign for deceitfully editing news headlines in Google ads. But MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider said the scandal was predictable.
In a Wednesday interview on Fox Business’s The Evening Edit, Schneider said this scandal is in line with the rules-for-thee-but-not-for-me mantra of the Biden-Harris administration’s fight against misinformation. “This is all part of her strategy,” he told Fox Business anchor Elizabeth MacDonald.
“The Kamala Harris campaign has made one thing clear, that news that is accurately reflective of her views has to be deemed misinformation, but her deceptive ads are supposed to be honored because they actually help her,” Schneider stated.
Schneider’s comments stem from information first discovered by AllSides, and later picked up by Axios, which busted the Harris-Walz presidential campaign for running Google ads news reports with fictitious headlines. Harris’s ultimate goal? Whitewashing her reputation while tucking away from the leftist-friendly media.
“She is, obviously, not speaking to reporters,” Schneider said, referring to Harris not holding a press conference since Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her (25 days, to be specific).
Schneider further expanded, “She does not want to speak to the American voter through the media, but she is very creative and running a very effective ad campaign. And she’s running micro-targeted ads to segments of the voting population. And that is why she has really picked up in the polls.”
The approval pick-up is triggered by what Schneider called a “fraud on the American voter.” He warned, however, that “we can’t merely complain” as Big Tech platforms are putting their thumbs on the scale ahead of the election.
In remarks to Axios, Google reportedly said Harris’s cunningly edited ads did not violate its terms of service. They did this because it “helps her,” Schneider declared.
Harris’s plan to run fake headlines as Google ads followed the release of a bombshell Media Research Center/McLaughlin & Associates poll showing that between 71 and 86 percent of Democrat and Independent voters either had no knowledge of the most radical positions previously endorsed by the vice president or were unsure.
Fox News anchor and comedian Greg Gutfeld juxtaposed the deceitful Google ads with the MRC polls to explain how Harris plans to keep Americans in the dark about her policies. The policies include allowing death row inmates to vote, endorsing Medicare-for-all, upending ICE and co-sponsoring the Green New Deal.
“According to an MRC poll, over 70% of Democrats aren’t familiar with Harris’s radical policies—and that’s a win for Harris. But it’s got to be weird to be happy when fewer people know about your beliefs: ‘They don’t think I’m as crazy as I really am,’” he said on the Wednesday installment of The Five.
“If you’re grateful that you’re hiding them from the public, you know, why not just listen to the public and have to, like, worry about what you said before? It’s like a cheating husband: ‘What did I say before? I’ve gotta keep lying.’ No, why don’t you just listen to the people?”
