Could it be anymore obvious? Are you guys at least willing to admit that the MSM (ok, I'll give ya Fox) are all in the tank with the D movment of "Remove trump, at all and any cost?"

Apparently history does repeat itself. You are correct, the MSM does not approve of Trump’s job performance.

Here’s John Boehner, the likely speaker if Republicans take the House, offering his plans for Obama’s agenda: “We're going to do everything — and I mean everything we can do — to kill it, stop it, slow it down, whatever we can.”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell summed up his plan to National Journal: “The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president.”

That's a complete bullshit obfuscation of the facts. You're trying to blur, very clear lines. An American news publication, has publicly announced (unknowingly), they are trying to impeach the President of the United States.

If an opposition party does all they can do withing parliamentarian rules to slow or stop the agenda of a political opponent, fine. This falls far outside those lines.

Your attempt to blur and obfuscate shows the level of lawlessness you are willing to be comfortable with to see Trump removed.

Freedom of the press, keeping sources anonymous are protected, they are, or should be servants of the truth.

Now, go find something to post to show how unfair Fox was to Obama. I know your game (or lack of game)

Well that's seven minutes of my life that's never coming back... Watched the entire thing and have a few thoughts.

First,, in the undercover footage what did you identify as false information? The talking heads are keying on the undercover conversations as damming in some way... I would like to hear what that is exactly.

Next, "News" at a national level ceased to exist with the veto of the Fairness Doctrine in 1987. They became entertainment that exists for the profit/(Political interest) of the owners. We can all agree that FOX is the worst of the worst but there is no reason to believe or even expect CNN to be unbiased.

I would LOVE to see a concerted effort of the media to remove Trump at all costs. Yes you read that right, Trump was created and put in office by the exact media he so vehemently opposes now... And by concerted effort I mean simply refuse to print or run anything he says that is demonstrably false. Trump ceases to exist if there was 100% fact based and verified reporting.

Lasty and most important. My views on Trump are 100% based on the things he says and does, there is no media bias necessary to conclude the man is not somebody I would trust to walk my dog let alone run the country.

Watch the clip again... They apologetically run impeachment related news at the highest rate possible. Trumps problems are due to Trumps conduct, excessive (CNN) or almost nothing (FOX) dont change that fact one bit.

MSM, that you suck up as information, has been known since the Clinton era as the Communist News Network.

This isn't new, just video proof of what's been know for decades.

Fucking Idiotic bleating sheep that you are...

You don't get it. They don't get a vote in the impeachment hearings. They are trying to drive Trumps approval ratings into the 30's where he would at that point become very weak. It isn't the medias job to sway public opinion through manipulation of the facts. The fact you'll defend it speaks volumes.

These are Stalinist tactics, shades of state run media. That you cannot deny.

It is entirely the medias job to sway public opinion, opinion to buy one car over another, eat at one place vs another, vacation in one spot vs another. Media, ALL media after 1987 is nothing more than advertising. I DONT LIKE that fact... but am certainly willing to acknowledge it.

If handicapping the next 12 months I would say there is a 70% chance formal impeachment proceedings start in the lower chamber, a 50% chance the upper chamber will actually vote on it, and a 0% chance he will be removed from office.

Repugnant media tactics (On all platforms) put Trump in the big chair... They will also take him out.

You filthy fucking sperm burping imbecile

The news media's job is to present the news not fabricate propaganda.

You're no more than a Nazi, over used yes I agree, but that describes you and the other Turds in this country to a T.

I'll pray for you to one day have the government you so desire rule over you, just not in this country.
Traitorous Fucking Idiot

I must agree at this point.
Face it Bwana, these Turds watched Biden brag about extorting Ukraine with out tax dollars, which were later channeled to his useless son yet attack Trump for not doing so.

They don't care.

So, based on previous conversations, You are obviously OK with CNN picking winners and losers on your side as well. You have got to see this as an affront to the electoral process. Regardless the sides here, the media is out of control.

https://local12.com/news/nation-wor...ias-driving-2020-coverage-ahead-of-dem-debate


The first paragraph of that article says everything....” Editorial decisions driven by ratings...” This is and has been the case for a very long time. I won’t go so far as to say I am OK with it, just so used to it being the de-facto standard that the idea that suddenly CNN should be held to a different standard is laughable. Basically just flat out amazed that this is somehow NOW a point of contention... Particularly after the news cycle that was the 2016 election.

Sorry Ol' Buddy, we are so polar on this, no point on continuing debating it. State run media to decide elections...check.

You just described Fox...

Which technically isn’t state run unless you consider Barr’s visit last week.

And we are not far apart on this at all.

I think that “broadcast” rules on all media should be held to a standard that makes the “Fairness Doctrine” look weak.

Did you see the stunt Warren pulled on Facebook this week? (Which I strongly disagree with BTW)

FB policy flat out said we don’t care if your adds are true all we want is your $$

CNN’s editorial bias is trivial to me compared to this.

Maybe Walter Cronkite disagree's

We all have our likes and our dislikes. But... when we're doing news - when we're doing the front-page news, not the back page, not the op-ed pages, but when we're doing the daily news, covering politics - it is our duty to be sure that we do not permit our prejudices to show. That is simply basic journalism.

When did this conversation become about good journalism???


https://www.rollcall.com/news/opinion/the-most-important-document-you-may-ever-read


An obviously biased editorial push doesn’t make my top 10...This does.

Point being, Journalistic integrity is gone. They only wish to create an outcome, not report the news. Folks like Hannity, O'Reilly are opinion shows and admit it. I can't watch Hannity BTW. CNN is creating this corrupt facade that they are reporting the news somehow. In an effort to do exactly as your link opines the Russians did.

So by your own definition CNN=Russian trolls.

It would be interesting to know what percentage of today’s “News” is based on strategic disinformation... And I’m not talking about flat out “Some People Say” segments that are an obvious Segway into 100% crap... Actual reporting on false leads planted to distract.

And yes CNN is complacent in the election of Trump...

Yellow Journalism isn’t new.
It’s been with us since news was a thing.

Pulitzer and Hearst were two of the worst, and Hearst literally started the Spanish-American War to sell newspapers.

Which I find hilarious, because the Pulitzer Prize supposedly awards journalistic excellence.

Sort of akin to the Alfred Nobel inventing dynamite, military weaponry and founding Bofors, an arms manufacturer that provides military weapons to this day.

Oh, and both Pulitzer and Hearst went on to political careers.
Anyone want to guess which political party?

I haven't researched it, or googled it.
Wild ass guess?

The Whig party?

No, no, here's my final answer-

Democrats?

What did I win?
