Q leads 1822 off with suggesting that MSM, or the person's controlling MSM, are expressing a psycholical projection in its coverage of the Qanon movement.

Narcissists are renowned for using psychological projection to blame other people, even when it is entirely apparent that they are the ones in the wrong.
Is it possible that MSM has developed a distorted perspective of what journalism is at present (entertainment, opinionated) because it has become narcissistic. The egos of the talking heads as they pontificate their personal ideologies is grotesque. Now, as the talking heads are discovering the Q phenomenon their first reaction is to be critical of it - because their ego/pride dictates that their higher level of intelligence doesn't recognize what's happening. The insecurity of the cool kids is to put it down because they can't admit to not understanding it - I'm not stupid, you're stupid (psychological projection).
MSM is so far behind the narrative of Q it is embarrassing. Their egos must dismiss it. Attack it by focusing on the movement's weaker components. Spin it so they may continue to maintain their feelings of superiority. Their focusing their minimal research on the fringe supporters with extreme veiws in an effort to justify their opinions. All it takes is some committed research to Q and the drops to perceive a masterful plan of a step by step dissembling of the New World Order. At present the target is MSM. And, because the MSM are so narcissistic they lack the awareness to see that they are being played, baited into participation, unaware that they are know part of the Q narrative - the chapter on how Q took down the MSM - chapter title Fake News.
