Media Bias

the media is in a full court press against trump right now.

the khan story is a good example. nothing on his status as an immigration lawyer. no questions to Khan when interviewed on why he bashed trump without speaking out against terrorism.

so far most of the media is totally ignoring the cash payment to iran

So, FOX isn't in the tank for Trump? How about Sean Hannity, who has actually endorsed Trump in ads pretending he is a "fair and balanced" journalist? Hannity is completely one-sided, and nothing but a shill for Trump. The same can be said for O'Reilly, Dobbs, and the rest of the FOX fruitcakes, NONE of whom have a shred of credibility as impartial journalists. They are enablers who pretend they report news.

Ah yes the spoiled child who has every toy in the world but one crying about the one.

meanwhile all of the remaining major networks and major newspapers march in lock step with the Clinton campaign.
all run the same exact stories with the same exact ananlysis and commentary but somehow we are supposed to believe this was all random.
meanwhile the WikiLeaks emails are starting to show the cozy relationship between the MSM and the Clintons.

Hannity is not a NEWS show!! It's like an opinion piece in the newspaper. It would be on the editorial pages!!
Oreilly is an opinion show.
Shepard Horrible is an opinion show.....drama queen edition.

i was watching cornel west on fox with bill oreilly and bill was defending the 60% of all federal tax dollars that goes to the military! these propagandists constantly trash big government and waste, but are hypocrites in terms of military spending which is way out of line with other developed countries and easily one of the most wasteful government programs if not the most wasteful.

CSPAN is one of the great american news outlets. ive seen chomsky, cornel west, chris hedges, ralph nader, greenwald on there alot when the mainstream media smartly banishes them.

chris hedges used to write for the NY times and he spoke out against the iraq war invasion and he was given a warning for not being "impartial" or whatever BS. anyways he decided to quit based on that.

one of his coworkers for the NY times wrote in favor of invading iraq and was not given a warning.

Celebrity narratives, manufactured pseudo-drama, sex scandals, natural disasters, insults and invective, mass shootings and war flash before us in a constant jumble of images on ubiquitous screens. The assault of images obliterates reality. A former congressman who sends a picture of himself in underwear to a woman is a national news story. Sober examinations of our economic, foreign, judicial and environmental policies are dismissed as too complicated and boring. It does not produce engaging images. The electronic media’s sole goal is to attract viewers and advertising dollars. It has conditioned us to demand an endless vaudeville act. - chris hedges

I agree with the irony , but even a biased NY times reporter has to pretend to not editorialize.
