Conservative Group Reveals ProPublica As The Attack Arm Of The Democratic Party:
A conservative group has released a provocative new report on ProPublica which refers to the research and news group as the "Attack Arm" of the Democratic Party. Relied upon as a supposedly unbiased source of news reporting and opinion research, ProPublica has produced numerous hit pieces on conservative and Republican office-holders, while virtually ignoring targets on the left.
Restoration of America PAC, the organization that released the report, states bluntly: "To expose abuses of power and betrayals of the public trust by government, business, and other institutions, using the moral force of investigative journalism to spur reform through the sustained spotlighting of wrongdoing."
The Left’s media-industrial complex is in full swing, and ProPublica is one more cog in that fear-spreading machine. It’s time conservatives learn the truth behind this “trusted” investigative outlet.
The report decries ProPublica's stated mission, stated on its About page:
To expose abuses of power and betrayals of the public trust by government, business, and other institutions, using the moral force of investigative journalism to spur reform through the sustained spotlighting of wrongdoing.
ProPublica describes itself, at great length, as independent, non-profit, moral, and dedicated to holding power to account. Restoration of America says those repeated boasts "could not be further from the truth."
ProPublica has slowly morphed into the attack arm of the Democrat Party—a role it was arguably created to serve.
They note that a simple review of ProPublica's history and donors reveals an obvious bias that has existed since its 2007 founding, but they went further. As part of this report, Restoration of America reviewed over 700 articles published by ProPublica in 2022 and 2023 and found that they attacked Republicans and conservative groups 23 times more often than leftists. They found a majority of the 700-plus articles did not have a political slant, but of the 242 that did focus on politics, 232 attacked the right, while just 10 focused on misdeeds by the left. --->READ MORE HERE
Report: Leftist-Funded ProPublica Attacks Conservatives 23 Times More Often Than Democrats
Published by Restoration of America, a new report documents how ProPublica acts as a PR operation for the Democrat Party.
Despite its attempts to cast itself as an objective investigative news operation, ProPublica is actually a Democrat propaganda mill bankrolled by leftist mega-donors, a new report found.
Published by Restoration of America (ROA), the analysis uncovers how the investigative nonprofit spearheading the left’s assault against conservative Supreme Court justices acts as a PR operation for the Democrat Party. After reviewing more than 700 ProPublica articles published between January 2022 and September 2023, Restoration News discovered that the outlet is “23 times more likely to attack conservatives than the Left.”
“Of the 716 articles reviewed, 242 were politically slanted, with a large disparity between anti-liberal and anti-leftist pieces,” the report reads. “In total, 232 were anti-conservative and 10 were anti-left.”
These numbers aren’t surprising when considering the political preferences of ProPublica’s staff, many of whom ROA discovered are registered Democrats. Of the more than half of staffers whose political affiliation could be determined (35 of 65), 27 were identified as Democrats while only three could be classified as Republicans.
“Consider that ProPublica is often characterized as a nonprofit ‘watchdog’ rather than as a partisan group by left-leaning and ‘mainstream’ publications, if it’s characterized at all,” the report reads. “Contrast that with these same publications’ treatment of conservative groups as biased, partisan, or ideologically motivated. That’s a credibility it doesn’t deserve.” --->READ MORE HERE
