This story is a morality tale of modern-day politics and media. FTX’s Sam Bankman-Fried had the Democrat Party and the media in his pocket as allies to perpetuate his massive lies.

He bought off Hollywood celebs like Larry David.

Everyone should understand already Sam Bankman-Fried was far more dangerous than Bernie Madoff. Madoff mostly avoided small investors and picked up marks through word of mouth. SBF’s company RAN A SUPER BOWL AD – the definition of chasing retail money.https://t.co/nQqm7djYcc

And it’s still happening. The New York Times story on the FTX collapse covers up for him.

Word count NYT’s puff piece on SBF:

“Fraud”: 0
“Enron”: 0
“Crime”: 0
“Illiquid”: 0
“Stolen”: 0
“Hidden”: 0
“Criminal”: 0
“Back door”: 0
“He’s getting sleep”: 1 pic.twitter.com/htbte8IyPI

Disgraceful reporting by the @nytimes on FTX. It portrays SBF as a charitable entrepreneur who went under and does not mention the words fraud, criminal, substance abuse, friends & family Bahamas KYC racket, hack, stolen funds or wiped servers anywhere.https://t.co/rBJ7O0L4sV

As more information comes out, this is going to look worse and worse. The left-wing journos are slow-rolling this story for that very reason, much like they’re doing with the Paul Pelosi story.

The lesson here is that if it looks too good to be true, it is.
