Leaked Reports Reveal George Soros Paid $1 Million to Each ABC Debate Moderator (Page 3 ) | September 18, 2024

Annonce:

In the wake of the leaked report, ABC has found itself in an awkward position. On one hand, they’re trying to defend their moderators from the absurd accusations that they’re Soros puppets. On the other, they’re facing the wrath of the internet’s conspiracy brigade, who now believe that every fact-check on their network is somehow part of a grander scheme to control the narrative.

ABC executives released a carefully worded statement, denying any outside influence over their moderators’ actions: “Our moderators uphold the highest standards of journalistic integrity and are not influenced by outside parties. Except, of course, the undeniable power of facts and logic.”

But the damage had already been done. Muir and Davis are now internet celebrities—not for their debate moderation, but for their alleged windfall courtesy of George Soros. Memes featuring the moderators lounging on yachts, drinking champagne labeled “Truth Juice,” and toasting to their mysterious benefactor have flooded social media.

One particularly viral meme features Muir in sunglasses, holding a stack of cash with the caption: “Fact-checked Trump and all I got was this lousy million dollars.”

As with all good conspiracy theories, this one didn’t stop at Muir and Davis. Soon, other journalists were being accused of receiving hefty Soros paychecks for their work. Anderson Cooper? Definitely on the payroll. Rachel Maddow? Practically Soros’ personal spokesperson. Even Bob the local weather guy was dragged into the mess, with conspiracy theorists accusing him of subtly promoting climate change propaganda every time he mentioned a warm front.
