    It appears that the only news outlet that isn't suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome is the one that claims to be "fair and balanced". The numbers show that to be true. The funny part is it appears from the study that even with all the negative press, the left wing media has failed to change the minds ov very many people. All they've done is soil their brand and make people mistrust them as the purveyors of impartial news. Hopefully, that fact will destroy and sink their soap box into the tar pits of bias. Likely that's why NBC's stock was a miserable $6.85 a share in 2012 and has sunk to a briny deep of $1.45 a share today. Maybe Trump should buy them up when he's out of the White House....if they haven't gone bankrupt by then.

    The actual real journalists at Fox, you know, the ones with journalism degrees, actually are just as negative about Trump as everyone else in the so called "MSM."

    But over half of Fox News programming are entertainers who have no experience in real journalism, Hannity, Tucker....etc. They are the ones who would wipe Trumps ass for him if he asked them to because they love the shithead.

    Was Fox News fair and balanced during the Obama years? Not from my POV thus Fox's claim of being fair and balanced is limited to times in which a conservative is president ergo not objectively fair and balanced as a whole.

    As for CNN, they have become a political debate channel in which bashing Trump seems to be their primary theme. I still watch the NBC Nightly News which is far more objective than CNN, but MSNBC which I can only view on YouTube seems biased against Trump.

    A Harvard study? LOL. Surely you don't take anything a liberal institution like Harvard does seriously, do you?

    Now, if it was a Trump University study, I'd find it believable.

    And yet the media blitz has failed.

    Who’s to blame for Hillary’s poor numbers? All of you!

    The blame game.

    I'm confused.
    This Idiot deserves 90% Negative.
    How does one, ie, cover Trump's Tweets (his main means of communication) "positively?"
    He's a daily Lying/Slandering/Juvenile/petty clown.
    (and a traitor)

    99.9% of you list is total bull-**** and wishful thinking and the remaining part is policy that is detrimental to the USA...at best.

    Bullshit to you. But, if the election was run back today, he would still win because of these accomplishments.

    At the end of the day Donald Trump is your President, and Hillary Clinton is viewed lower than him.

    Scoreboard! :banana::cheerleader::roflol::bye:

    It is not the fault of CNN, NBC that we have an ignorant, ex-reality show host liar in the White House. They can only report.

    He is every one of those things and oh so much more, but it would be against the TOS to list them all unedited.

    No, it isn't. They tried their hardest to get Hillary elected.

    America gave them the middle finger.

    The birther-in-chief received 3 billion dollars worth of free media coverage from these networks. No other candidate came even remotely close. Trump the POS has them to thank for the free advertising and publicity.

    How about we study how much Fox news is negative to any democrat, and positive to all republicans ?

    The greatest threat this country faces today is the rights drive to discredit the media.

    This is a fight for democracy itself. Trump and the Russians are waging war on America.

    And now we know that the majority of the Republican Party is fine with that.

    You are blind to anything positive.

    I read across the board, my take is more positive than yours. Until you do the same I find your feelings meaningless.

    Frankly I find the negative slant puerile and bereft.

    Cheers
