The limp rag doll known as the Portland Press Herald pretended Monday to be nonpartisan.
But true to form the joke of a daily newspaper then showed its true illiteracy.
To wit, political columnist (so-called) Steve Collins was so proud of himself calling for “an impartial investigation” of an ICE-involved shooting Monday in Biddeford.
So far so good Steve.
Then he added, “not one led by Trump’s hired hands.”
And…then… “Nothing ICE is doing is worth the bloodshed and trauma it is causing. Today’s killing in Biddeford just emphasizes that reality.”
Says the “impartial” Steve Collins.
So within the blink of an eye Collins went from pretending to keep an open mind to deciding nah, let’s go back to a good partisan bashing of the Trump administration.
Translation: we don’t really want an investigation, just an excuse to whine about President Trump.
The good news is fewer and fewer people are wasting their time paying for the Portland Press Herald’s blather.
The numbers are irrefutable.The (free) Maine Wire reached a milestone Monday of 200,000 followers on Facebook while the (paywalled) Portland Press Herald remained at a pathetic 94,000.Numbers don’t lie.




I love how the PPH dropped its paywall as a “public service.”
I also think that Collins acted like a senator today saying what needed to be said as this should be investigated and we don’t know what happened and we need to be objective.
Now, can you imagine what the Oyster Fuher might be saying right now?
ICE is causing the bloodshed and trauma? No, you insufferable dimwit, it was caused by the Left’s illegal open border policies that ICE is rightfully having to clean up.
The Democrats caused this mans death by allowing him to enter America illegally
Dr. Ed: I thought I noticed that (PPH’s paywall) when I landed there accidentally yesterday. When did they do that?
Another excellent story from THE MAINE WIRE!
Great article exposing the alleged “impartiality” of the “journalism” that the Portland Press Herald absurdly claims. I enjoy The Maine Wire. I’m pleased to see that circulation records seem to indicate that many other responsible and “thinking” readers are approving of The Maine Wire’s professionalism.
I stopped reading anything in the Portland Press Herald, BDN, Sun Journal,etc they are all propaganda for the Marxists. I have to hold my nose and try not to vomit when I watch the local media stations, I do not bother with Newscenter Maine they are a joke and bunch of liars.
I haven’t read the PPH in 25+ years. The only thing I’ve missed is increasing my blood pressure meds. Thank you, Maine Wire for a bit of sanity.
do we know more about the non citizen who got shot?
was he married or was she just a friend? was the mother of the child a citizen ?
Was he legally a parent for the child?
Who owned the car he was in?
Have his parents been contacted?
Incompetence, they name is Ted Collins.
It was free Mon afternoon and still is now.
At least, if you go in from another site, e.g. Townhall.

I wouldn’t even use the Mess-Herald to line a birdcage for fear of making the bird an ignorant progtard.
Reading the PPH is like watching “The View”, no one but the socialist left rear or watch this junk.

I wouldn’t wipe my dogs ass with that paper
Bro, take a Xanax. It’s going to be okay. It’s just a biased reporter.
You two have more in common than you think.
Good luck Biddeford. Get rid of the Democratic leadership. Remember behind every Papp Lousier the was a Author Maxwell.
The oyster Fuher would have been triggered and end up visiting the porta potty a few more times than usual. If the porta potty is rockin’, don’t come knockin’.
What’s really deranged is the Portland Diocese released a wee statement on this would be murderer’s death. This moron was in the country illegally and tried violence. ICE officials are authorized in deadly force if necessary so it was a case of FAFO

Oh look, you can clearly see the fed in no danger, as the vehicle moved with extremely low rate of speed and was continuously turning away from the officer.
Fuck the feds. Tankdozer their homes.
