    ^ I post this view time to time, and it is SO taboo you will NEVER hear it even mentioned on the MSM, but if you read this forum a fairly high percentage of people do believe the leakers and hackers were insiders, including in the intelligence community. But the MSM tells everyone to only think about Russia - and most people think as they are told to.

    Interesting that so far every Democrat on the thread sees the job of the media and press not to report, but to judge candidates and tell people their verdict. Thinking for yourself is hard, maybe they need people to do all their thinking for them and tell them the conclusions to reach. Maybe there is another reason they can reveal to us.

    What is missing that is more revealing in the survey? What is the statistic for reporting that was just reporting - neither positive or negative? When was the MSM NOT telling people what to think and conclude? When was the MSM reporting the news? Basically never. Nearly 100% NOTHING but propaganda.

    Ouch... :eyepopping:

    I wasn't here for much of the pre-election season. That's a pretty nasty legacy to have to live down. Hopefully, there were some lessons learned.

    I think I'm probably the only person in the world that doesn't watch any of the news shows. Would be interesting to see what Fox's numbers are.

    The "MSM" was fine when they were reporting ad-nauseam on every "a source close to", or "an un-named source" on anything Hillary Clinton. We never heard a word from the right about "fake-news" then ? The right had nothing to say then, but once Trump got in and labeled everything "fake news", his supporters followed. We never heard the term Fake News when Fox was acting as an arm of the Republican Party ?

    And the irony here is that every time the media reports on something Russia, the right jumps in instantly to label it fake news, and then we find out that Trump, and/or his staff or family were the ones actually lying. The real problem here is that he and his supports (mainly the rabid supporters) blame the media for his actions. Its been absolutely stunning to watch. Now we actually have Fox calling him out. Just think about how egregious his actions are when Fox is calling him out.......

    When the MSM reports something, just because you don't agree with the findings does not make it fake.

    If you really want to "Make America Great Again", make sure you hold both sides to the same standard, and hold them BOTH accountable

    With Fox it's 52% negative, 48% positive. But 93% negative and 7 % positive is proof of the liberal bias in the lame stream media. NBC's stock was $7.35 a share in 2010. It's currently $1.46. Anything under $5 a share is considered "penny stock"...They'll be gone soon. :roflol:

    Trump should buy them once the crater for good.

    Most of the sources were Hillary herself.

    Why did you post this? It was released more than 2 months ago and has been discussed on this board quite a few times before.

    52% of Fox New coverage of Trump was negative and 48% positive. Do you have a source for your assertion they were biased against Obama? I'll bet Harvard studied it.

    They are lost causes and NBC's stock are in the "penny stock" range, I think they'll be gone or bought soon.

    So? Likely for the same reason we see 5 or 6 threads on every subject about Trump. Why are you even reading it let alone posting on it?

    The media has discredited itself. It needs no help from anyone. It is not unlike academia in their efforts to undermine previously established reputations. However, it is only natural for those receiving benefit from bias to realize the presence of bias after objective and penalized observers.

    If they are Liberal ans still say CNN and NBC are 93% negative stories about Trump why wouldn't I believe them? They should be defending CNN and NBC.

    Because I assumed since this was in "Current Events" that it was actually a current event.

    You see 5 or 6 threads about President Trump because he is currently the President. And anything to do with him is called a "Current Event".

    Illegal Immigration #'s are way down. I know that is bad news for the left. His predecessor past more regulation than any other President. Those regulations are being repealed. The Supreme Court remains balanced thanks to his appointee. (that alone is accomplishment enough) The many things he has accomplished is bad news for the globalist left which the News Media Champions. Of course they won't report it.

    Name calling will get the left back in power? Is that what you are saying?

    I'll remember that when you go back to trashing Trump with your liberal friends on yet another Russian thread.

    Roll on the floor and laugh. That is one way to deal with failure. Donald is cutting Big Government, breaking up the establishment, and your Socialist dream is coming to and end. It is quite sad for you.

    For one, in answer to your 1st point, Fox News was the 1st to point out "Benghazi wasn't about a film".
