+ 100 Bit shout out to the mainstream media for keeping us informed despite all of Trump's abuse and his fantasies that people only listen to him, not them. Typical abuser strategy -- discredit anyone who might expose you for what you are.

THANK YOU TO ALL JOURNALISTS FOR BEING TRUE PATRIOTS IN THE FACE OF THE SHOCKING UNAMERICAN ATTITUDE OF TRUMP AND HIS BASE. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

The GOP relies on misinformation. Trump boasted how he loves the uneducated.

America has almost NO actual journalists. We have an abundance of democrat party mouthpieces LARP’ing as journalists, though.


Oh ok, I know this is what Breitbart and FoxNews push.


I’d never accuse Fox or Breitbart of committing Journalism, either. They’re just the opposite pole of CNN, MS, CBS, ABC, and most of the othet establishment media.


The one thing I will admit that Fox does better than its competition is understanding market share.

Because they’ve captured half the market by themselves, leaving 4-5 competitors to fight it out among themselves for the other half. That was genius on their part.

But it doesn’t mean any of them are doing actual journalism.


Journalists tilt heavily towards leftist ideology. This is not surprising due to the type of people that Journalism attracts. This not wrong or somehow undesirable. It just is.

Curious what you consider actual journalism? ProPublica?

This is so stupid. Lobbyist for tobacco or lobbyist for social justice?

Athlete like Dwayne Wade or one of the many women beaters?

Trust fund kids were born into it.

Hedge fund people are all bad though. That's the only universal one.

The OP, of course, and his close circle of experts on morality.

This sort of thing happens all the time in communist/socialist countries, why would we be surprised that leftists want to go through this exercise in the US.
