Media Exploitation and the Romney Family Tragedy
- The liberal press turned a private family loss into political theater.
- Divorce filings show hardline legal tactics, not criminal wrongdoing.
- Linking private disputes to a tragic death is reckless and cruel.
- Americans deserve focus on real issues, not media witch hunts.
The death of Carrie Elizabeth Romney is a private tragedy that should be treated with dignity, not used as political ammunition. Instead, the liberal media rushed in, searching for a scandal to pin on a prominent Republican family and feeding a narrative that serves their agenda. This behavior shows how low the press will stoop to damage conservative figures.
This is a classic tactic of the left-wing press, which not as a source of objective news, but as a propaganda arm for the Democratic Party, constantly working to smear and dismantle conservative figures and their families while ignoring the very real corruption and scandals that fester within their own political ranks.
Divorce records obtained by The New York Post paint a picture of a bitter legal fight between Carrie Romney and George Scott Romney, and those facts are worth reporting, not sensationalizing. The documents suggest a hardline posture from George Romney, and they even say he “sought to make sure his estranged wife was awarded nothing by the courts.” Those are legal positions, uncomfortable but not evidence of anything criminal.
The filings spell out the specifics of his stance in blunt terms: “Despite being married more than eight years, starting in 2016, he said that they had no shared property that needed to be divided by the courts.” The record goes on, noting that “Romney also sought to ‘terminate the court’s ability to award support’ to either person, court documents show.” Those are courtroom maneuvers, not proof of wrongdoing, and the press should stop pretending otherwise.
It is despicable to connect routine legal tactics to the tragic loss of a family member simply to gin up clicks and outrage. The media’s instinct to weaponize grief against Republican families betrays basic human decency and shows why trust in mainstream outlets is collapsing. Report facts, but stop drawing wild lines between private disputes and public sin.
President Donald J. Trump has repeatedly called out this corrupt, biased approach and for many Americans that message rings true. He focuses on tangible priorities like securing the border, reviving the economy, and defending the rule of law while the media chases headlines. That contrast in focus and character could not be more clear.
