The mainstream media’s blatant bias and outright deception were on full display yet again during ABC’s This Week, where Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called out the fake news for its relentless negativity and false narratives. Instead of acknowledging the truth, Martha Raddatz doubled down on the media’s favorite tactic—downplaying good news and spinning facts to fit their anti-Trump agenda.
During the interview, Secretary Bessent rightfully criticized the media’s hysterical reporting on the stock market:
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “When I look at some of the things that are being published, there was a story 10 days ago that said, ‘This is the worst April for the stock market since the Great Depression.’ Ten days later, the Nasdaq is now up in the month of April, and I haven’t seen a story that says, ‘Oh, stock market has biggest bounce back ever.’”
Raddatz’s weak response? “It certainly has gone back and forth.”
But the facts tell a different story. The NASDAQ closed at 19,278 on March 31, 2025, and by April 25, 2025, it had climbed to 19,432—a clear upward trend despite the media’s doomsday predictions. This remarkable recovery, fueled by President Trump’s pro-growth policies, including strategic tariffs that protect American industries, should be celebrated. Instead, the liberal press would rather bury the truth than admit they were wrong—again.
This isn’t just about bad reporting—it’s about an agenda. The fake news media, led by outlets like ABC, CNN, and The New York Times, is hellbent on undermining President Trump’s successes. Whether it’s the booming economy, record-low unemployment, or a resilient stock market, they will never give credit where it’s due. Their mission is clear: manipulate public perception, stoke fear, and delegitimize a president who has delivered historic wins for the American people.

Raddatz’s dismissive deflection proves the point. Rather than admitting the media’s false alarm, she brushed it off as mere market fluctuations. But the numbers don’t lie—the NASDAQ is up, and the Trump economy continues to thrive despite global challenges. The American people see through the deception. They know that while the liberal media peddles panic, President Trump is busy delivering results.
