The Media's Portrayal of Trump and His Presidency

Most reporters and editors are liberal — a now dated Pew Research Center poll found that liberals outnumber conservatives in the media by some 5 to 1, and that comports with my own anecdotal experience at National Public Radio. When you are liberal, and everyone else around you is as well, it is easy to fall into groupthink on what stories are important, what sources are legitimate and what the narrative of the day will be.

This may seem like an unusual admission from someone who once ran NPR, but it is borne of recent experience. Spurred by a fear that red and blue America were drifting irrevocably apart, I decided to venture out from my overwhelmingly Democratic neighborhood and engage Republicans where they live, work and pray. For an entire year, I embedded myself with the other side, standing in pit row at a NASCAR race, hanging out at Tea Party meetings and sitting in on Steve Bannon’s radio show. I found an America far different from the one depicted in the press and imagined by presidents (“cling to guns or religion”) and presidential candidates (“basket of deplorables”) alike.

Seemed like only yesterday the media attacked Papa Bush for having an affair with someone in his entourage, the proof being a picture of them sharing some kind of in-joke during a cabinet meeting. That was proof enough that everyone is evil in the GOP.

Just remember that the standard of proof when a Republican is accused of anything is the accusation itself, and for a Democrat it requires proof beyond all possible doubt, along with a signed affidavit from God himself, notarized by Jesus Christ, and personally served by the Holy Spirit.

If TIME is trying to make Trump’s presidency out to be bad for Americans, well, they’re definitely doing it wrong:....................... :lol:

Aren't they aware that Americans realized that "government as we know it"............IS the problem

 

That's why we put up with such a blowhard as the Donald.

CULTURE OF CORRUPTION: CNN’s Undisclosed Ties To Fusion GPS.

 

“At no point in Perez’s reporting did he disclose his close ties to the Fusion GPS operatives.”. . . .

 

CNN’s coverage of the dossier has been relatively soft. CNN anchor Jake Tapper, usually known for his aggressive coverage, gave Fusion a pass while reporting on the story Wednesday evening.”

Wasn't too long ago that I considered Jake Tapper and Bret Baier as the more reliable and objective sources among the major news networks. But lately Jake has either been tapping the Kool-Aid or his corporate Overlords have applied pressure behind the scenes

The media just broadcasts the latest momentum excitedly, like they are Einstein finding a new theory of relativity.

 

They do this in sports announcing as well, SCREAMING that Kershaw has completely figured out the Astros, just before he gives up 4 runs.
