Media Bias Produces Mental Illness “Ameriphobia”

For Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, the latest scandal is that employees of his California golf course say he wanted to fire women who weren’t pretty enough. That’s the big scoop from the Los Angeles Times. Trump is supposed to be on the defensive compared to a female candidate who helped orchestrate cover-ups of “bimbo eruptions” from her husband’s mistresses?

That such a story about Trump can be floated which such seriousness in the press is just more evidence of the double-standard that pervades the media. This corruption is also known as political correctness, a phenomenon driving more and more people to Trump.

Another scandal, courtesy of The Washington Post, is the story headlined, “Trump Foundation lacks the certification required for charities that solicit money.” Is this all they’ve got?

Fortunately, there are two papers in the nation’s capital. Washington Times columnist Kelly Riddell noted, “If Donald Trump becomes the next president of the United States he’ll be more thoroughly vetted by the media than Barack Obama.”

While Post reporter David A. Fahrenthold has spent months looking into the esoteric financial workings of the Trump Foundation, the same paper was unwilling to write a single article on Obama’s relationship with suspected Soviet agent and black Communist Frank Marshall Davis back in 2008, during Obama’s first run for the White House.

This curious fact was mentioned by Riddell in her column, “A biased media in action,” as another indication of the growing recognition of the media double-standard.
