Typical of our left wing
media. If the Obama's screw up they say nothing. If the Trump's sneeze
it a display of their terrible manners. Maybe not a good analogy but
it makes the point. Media bias is out of control. http://conservativetribune.com/obamas-break-rules-old-church/?
Serves them right. The media caught with their pants down. Lies can be overturned with truth. They seem not to know that. http://www.dailywire.com/news/16567/mainstream-media-anchors-befuddled-when-reminded-hank-berrien?
Given their dismal record of
performance who can challenge the results of this study of journalists.
Quote: "A recent scientific study just proved something that viewers of
CNN have probably suspected for years: Journalists’ brains function at a lower level than the rest of the population." https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/05/20/journalists-drink-too-much-are-dumber-than-average-study-finds/
This Harvard study finds that
80% of the mainstream coverage is anti-Trump. Quote: "President Donald
Trump's first 100 days in office "set a new standard for negativity" for
press coverage of a president, a Harvard study found. The Harvard
Kennedy School and Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy
study examined coverage by The New York Times, Wall Street Journal and
The Washington Post, broadcast outlets CNN, CBS, Fox News and NBC, and
European news outlets the Financial Times, BBC and ARD in Germany.
"Trump's coverage during his first 100 days set a new standard for
negativity," study author Thomas Patterson wrote. "Trump's coverage was
unsparing. In no week did the coverage drop below 70 percent negative
and it reached 90 percent negative at its peak." http://www.newsmax.com/Politics/harvard-media-coverage-trump/2017/05/20/id/791379/?
If Harvard, a liberal bastion, finds that media coverage of Trump is
80% negative just think what the real percentage must be.
Speaking of the Washington
Post, they continue to report fake news. Facts are no longer necessary
to make a sensational fake revelation. http://www.dailywire.com/news/16977/report-wapo-blows-it-again-kushner-did-not-request-john-nolte?
David Horowitz says in this
piece that the liberal media is actively trying to destroy Trump.
Quote: "David Horowitz, author of The New York Times bestseller "Big Agenda,"
says the media is on a hell-bent mission to "destroy the Trump
presidency" and singles out The Washington Post as "completely
untrustworthy." "These are seditious rags," Horowitz said Thursday on
Newsmax TV's "America Talks Live" with Bill Tucker. "The Washington
Post. It's completely untrustworthy. It's totally partisan. It's
destructive. All of these stories are designed to destroy the Trump
presidency. We haven't seen this in our lifetimes in this country." http://www.newsmax.com/Newsmax-Tv/david-horowitz-liberal-media-trump/2017/05/18/id/791000/?
This is a measure of the lack
of ethics and any moral standards on the part of the mainstream media.
Quote: "Today former Congressman and soon to be ex-husband Anthony
Weiner pleaded guilty in federal court to texting explicit images to a
15-year-old girl. He faces up to 27 months in prison. It was just a few
short years ago that the left and their friends in the media defended
Weiner against allegations he was preying on young girls and viciously
attacked Andrew Breitbart for his reporting on the issue." https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2017/05/19/flashback-when-the-media-said-andrew-breitbart-was-wrong-about-anthony-weiners-sexting-n2329364?
Just like when the media protected Bill Clinton for his sexual
misbehavior they later took up the banner to protect Anthony Weiner, a
former Democrat leader and husband of Hillary's closest ally. The
morals of both are in the toilet but that does not matter to an equally
amoral mainstream media.
The media's "gotcha" mentality
absent in depth research is a dangerous trend. Quote: "The daily press
conferences of Sean Spicer, the president's press secretary, are
broadcast live on C-SPAN and are among the highest-rated shows on
daytime television. YouTube offers discussions of the "spiciest moments"
of the day illustrated with emojis of chili peppers and flames. Serious
criticism in such an atmosphere is trivialized, and the spotlights on
the newsmakers are less illuminating than suspenseful. Who will ignite
the next bombshell? All this is rooted for now in an "outsider"
president who tuned and tweaked his public persona in a reality
television show, and whose brazen carelessness is amply documented. For
its part, the press acts on its Woodward and Bernstein envy without
doing the hard digging (and disciplined editing) that made them famous.
"Gotcha" may be fun to play, but the press, its customers and the First
Amendment deserve a lot better." https://townhall.com/columnists/suzannefields/2017/05/19/when-the-press-plays-gotcha-everybody-loses-n2328875?
The Democrat party and their mainstream media partners are literally coming apart at the seams. Quote: "The
national media and the Democratic Party have gone stark raving mad over
President Trump's election victory; they refuse to accept it. Their
paroxysms of fury are evident all day long on every network and cable
news outlet and every mainstream newspaper. Since Nov. 8, they have
leapt like a swarm of remoras
onto a whale proclaiming every little thing that they think might take
the man down. Hillary's team concocted the "Russia collusion" hoax
within twenty-four hours of her defeat. Everyone knows this! Hillary
is the one with all the Russia connections; lots of them, all
financially benefitting her personal foundation. They, the media, have
come up with numerous other schemes with which to attack Trump: taxes,
emoluments, tweets, family, even his ice cream servings. The
Democrats in Congress dutifully follow suit like Pavlov's dogs. They
care not a whit whether their charges are based in fact. Hence, "fake
news." The mainstream media folk invented it, this "resistance," and
they are running with it, day after day after day. They devised the
game plan, and they are sanctimonious in their defense of it. Like the
Russia meme they keep peddling, they go at it from every angle in the
pitiable belief that they can convince the American people that they
elected the wrong person. The
Democrats in Congress dutifully follow suit like Pavlov's dogs. They
care not a whit whether their charges are based in fact. Hence, "fake
news." http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/05/the_mediademocratic_party_suicide_pact.html
This is an insightful piece
that will at times frustrate some, maybe even make some angry and still
other time evoke agreement. It definitely offers food for thought.
Quote: "Meanwhile, to all of you yapping incessantly about Russia, don’t
complain in 2020 when you get a horrible corporate Democratic candidate
and Trump wins. Even if you dodge the Hillary bullet, don’t expect for a
second to get anyone decent nominated. The “resistance” is clueless and
Trump has much better odds of a second term than ever being
impeached. The Russia nonsense is all a carefully crafted distraction
narrative to keep you stuck on the debt serf plantation and away from
organizing genuine resistance. Keep it up, the plutocrats are laughing
uncontrollably. This is precisely why I reserve my most
intense contempt for the corporate media. It’s quite intentionally
focusing people’s attention on a still unproven theory that marginally
affects their lives, compared to very real issues of economic misery and
the neo-feudal world being institutionalized all around them. This is
straight up evil. The corporate press is deliberately not focusing on
things that really matter to people, and diverting mass attention to
what is still just a conspiracy theory. If you have proof Trump is a
Russian stooge, let’s see it. If not, then focus on the very serious
issues that matter and helped elect Trump in the first place. The
corporate media, neoliberal Dems and neocons are successfully diverting
genuine angst and energy away from pressing economic concerns and toward
a imperial geopolitical agenda that benefits the plutocrats and their
ambitions. They are manufacturing resistance." https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/05/16/manufacturing-resistance-the-american-public-is-being-manipulated-into-irrelevance/ Here is an example. http://dailysignal.com/2017/05/16/trumps-disclosure-to-russians-spurs-debate-over-classified-information-damaging-leaks/
If you have the evidence
present it. Otherwise shut your mouth or put down your pen. This
columnist is no fan of Trump but he is more put out with the lack of
ethics of those who are aimlessly and viciously attacking him without
any evidence. Quote: "There’s an old saying, “Put up, or shut up.” If
you’ve got the goods, let’s see them. Show me the proof and I’m ready to
believe. And there are millions of Americans willing to do the same. I
say this as someone with a long, documented history of not being a fan
of Donald Trump. What I’m not willing to do is take the word of people
unwilling to put their name to a charge, nor am I willing to believe The New York Times or any newspaper without some proof. It may not matter to them, but my integrity won’t allow it." https://townhall.com/columnists/derekhunter/2017/05/17/what-happened-to-integrity-n2328092?
One example of media frenzy over anything Trump says or does. http://www.newsmax.com/Newsmax-Tv/richard-perle-russia-washington-post-donald-trump/2017/05/16/id/790522/?
There is plenty of evidence
that the political left and its mainstream media partners are colluding
to destroy Trump on mostly spurious charges and purposeful
misrepresentation of what he says or does. This is and example of the
coup many have claimed is ongoing. It is a massive effort and is
intended to remake our country into a leftist paradise where the
people's voices gets drowned out by the nonsense spouted by
socialists/Democrats/liberals/progressives. Here is an example. Quote:
"One of Trump's vast number of African-American supporters told HLN's
Drew Pinksy: "I love what (Trump) is doing with the Muslims getting out
of the country, because if they really knew what that was about -- if
they knew that that was about freedom. It was about freedom versus
enslavement." He's right. It's not about religion. It's not about
nationality. It's about hitting the pause button on bringing in radical
Islam's dysfunctional, misogynist, violent, exploding-airplane culture.
The voters understood Trump. (At least some of us did -- barely enough
of us to elect him president!) Liberals didn't. But now the courts are
blocking Trump's exercise of presidential powers based on the left's own
idiotic misinterpretations of what he said." https://townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/2017/05/17/every-time-i-try-to-be-mad-at-trump-the-media-pull-me-back-n2328357?
