you think you should let trolls spout whatever they want and that's fine. you do you.

btw, i'm not debating anything. a debate would require the other side to be based in some form of reality.

Liberal media failing to report about a presidential candidate's ethically questionable foundation contribution I see..

9/2/2016 10:15:33 AM

so, what's considered NOT liberal media these days besides Fox News?

9/2/2016 12:29:00 PM

It's interesting how upset and defensive SJWs like goalielax get...

Why are you so bothered that people critique biased media? I'm honestly curious...

If you want me to stop calling you a social justice warrior, then stop acting like one (resorting to insults every post while offering no argument).

9/2/2016 2:45:47 PM

bruh, you can call me a SJW all you want. i mean, i'm not one, and I just laugh at your dumbass every time you try to call me one. but the last thing I want to do is take away the only weapon you have.

9/4/2016 9:40:53 PM

liberal is the wrong word. its corporate media. might as well be watching super bowl commercials or movies with product placement.

check out the libural NBC news. an entire article because clinton had a coughing fit while talking

Holy shit! That 1 article counters decades of well-known bias. Assuming the writer doesn't get fired like others have been for questioning the health of their dear leader.

How does the New York Post lean? I just read a very unflattering article on Clinton that was linked from Drudge, but I thought the Post was left.

9/12/2016 4:51:16 PM

it's owned by Rupert Murdoch/News Corp.......

Lol at the Post cover today.

She laughably tries to use her name as an objective journalist and, like Dan Rather, is exposed as a biased fraud.

the cover of cnn.com right now. Its almost like they are intentionally mocking us at this point.

No, liberal is the correct word. Fox News is very right wing and the rest are very left wing. ABC has been worshiping the Clinton's for year. The liberal media picked Clinton as the candidate to promote multiple years ago. None of the other liberal, or conservative candidates ever had a chance.

10/11/2016 2:16:24 PM

Just bc you're so far right you're in the fucking ocean does not mean news outlets are "Liberal".

10/11/2016 2:19:55 PM

The media is overwhelmingly left-leaning. Its true each side has its tabloid echo-chambers, but the problem is when outlets pretending to be "objective" are exposed as being pro-Clinton.

10/11/2016 2:34:50 PM

Fox News: Fair and Balanced

10/11/2016 2:37:23 PM

The media gave Trump 3 billion dollars worth of free advertising. There should be a law on equal election coverage. If you cover one candidate for 10 minutes, you are fined for every minute you don't give other candidates. Hit them where it hurts and offset the incentive for ratings whore networks to sway elections.

10/11/2016 9:12:49 PM

Polls illegal, media is silenced: Vote Earl for the Regressive Party in 2020!

10/11/2016 9:23:22 PM

i don't know how you got "silencing the media" out of that. it actually does the opposite by requiring them to increase diversity in content. Its not regressive to have the idea that industries need some degree of regulation at some point.

10/11/2016 9:33:09 PM

LOL. You're literally suggesting state controlled media. I can't with you right now.

10/11/2016 9:45:38 PM

The problems of cable news will solve themselves. The average viewer's age is 60+.

10/11/2016 9:55:56 PM

^^I never said that. I'm advocating state regulated media and clearly stated so in both posts. Ever heard of the fairness doctrine or the equal time rule? Its something we're supposed to have but don't enforce. Like every other regulatory agency, the FCC is not immune to industry infiltration.

It has nothing to do with what someone believes when it comes to politics. There is no doubt the press is very left leaning.

10/11/2016 10:35:58 PM

Have you ever stopped to wonder WHY the press might lean more left than right?

10/11/2016 10:46:05 PM

I don't think it's too outrageous to claim that give Roger Stone said he had contact with them.

Though I do understand if you just assume anyone tangentially related to Trump is a complete liar or bullshit artist.

(Personally, I think Clinton camp needs to address the content and not the source)

10/12/2016 9:02:00 AM

But guys, Trump has scary connections to Russia, because a guy that advised him did business in Russia! A news outlet told me (right before the DNC approved it).

10/12/2016 12:23:14 PM

JCE echochamber.

10/12/2016 12:26:41 PM

He's such an odd guy.

10/12/2016 12:45:39 PM

Is Trump a Kremlin sleeper agent? -Politico

Guys I'm worried!

10/12/2016 1:19:17 PM

I think it's more likely Trump has basically been working for Clinton than for Russia.

10/12/2016 3:37:43 PM

by being the exact awful person that he's always been?

10/12/2016 5:29:11 PM

The problem is not that the media is dogging trump. Its that they held on to the worst stuff against trump until the time most convenient to the Clinton campaign.

10/12/2016 7:06:42 PM

Do you really think Farhentold was holding on to this and strategically placed it at the Clinton campaigns direction? Please... Have you crtiticized WikiLeaks for their timing? Must have missed it.

(Although I don't see how oppo research being leaked to media in October, if that is what it is, is a problem. Maybe if Trump wasn't such a despicable person this wouldn't matter)

[Edited on October 12, 2016 at 7:59 PM. Reason : X]

10/12/2016 7:56:20 PM

all of this stuff happened decades ago and they are just now pushing it in october when the clinton campaign is in trouble. Trump has been running for president as a despicable person for years.

[Edited on October 12, 2016 at 8:09 PM. Reason : LINCOLN DID IT]

10/12/2016 8:08:39 PM

What's your argument? That the GOP has horrible oppo? That the "media" was holding all of this until now? I'm a bit confused.

Could it be that as this guy gets closer to the presidency that there is more scrutiny? You have a massive double standard when it comes to this stuff.

*** again, if the "they" you mention is the Clinton campaign why would they not push this now? Seems like pretty good politics. Did you get angry about Trump's stunt with the women? If he thought that would work to bring 25-40 year old Clinton stories back more power to him.

[Edited on October 12, 2016 at 8:19 PM. Reason : X]

10/12/2016 8:14:10 PM

No actually I wish wikileaks released the clinton stuff earlier too. They clearly did the same thing as the media to get an "october surprise". the problem is that I hold the media to a higher standard than something like wikileaks.

They just don't have the same power behind their media machine. Hence the thread name.

[Edited on October 12, 2016 at 8:21 PM. Reason : I'd be fine if the media separated itself from campaign strategy but that would require fair media]

10/12/2016 8:19:58 PM

So if the campaign is behind this (and they are, in part, at least for sure) then what is the media supposed to do? Not report it?

Most media outlets have covered the email server story and the Clinton Foundation to death. If a big story broke that the GOP or Trump campaign leaked now such as the initial email server story would your preference be to not have the media report it?

Not trying to be argumentative just trying to understand.

10/12/2016 8:25:07 PM

the media should have done their homework and could have reported trumps history 2 years ago. nbc had this bus video for 11 years!

10/12/2016 8:28:56 PM

I actually agree. Rumor is that they wanted to scrub Billy Bush from it. That is abhorrent. NBC seems to do this quite often.

But I do believe Fahrentold did release it ASAP.

10/12/2016 8:31:16 PM

they have been unwatchable today just repetition of the media accounts of pence's plane. I'm fine with them covering it obviously but i wish they were capable of more than one story in a day
