    The media should report the news, not play revenge-news-reporting games because they think Trump "conned" them, and not push a divisive anti-Trump agenda just because they think it helps their ratings. At this point the mainstream media outlets are in a race to see who can go the lowest, and their low-information viewers are eating it up for entertainment value and bias confirmation, but they're getting angrier and less informed with each "news" story.

    The base here support Trump only for power.

    I voted for neither Trump nor Clinton.

    The next election neither will be the banner bearer in the election of 2020.

    Oh, and back on topic, of course the Hatetul RW Media is dividing America.. :flagus:

    Don't forget about all the respected media around the world, every TV channel and newspaper in the world not owned by Rupert Murdoch, super duper. The Washington Examiner is a fake newspaper run by the Adelson family, a well-known greedy idiot GOP billionaire. The Washington Times is run by Reverend Moon's family. They are all propaganda garbage.

    Sorry but you should have voted for Clinton. Everything GOP voters know about her is garbage propaganda character assassination, 25 years of it. People should vote for the policies they want, not for the best liar, who is who we have now...

    Convenient - and very telling - that you left out two-thirds of respondents seem to feel the exact same about Cantaloupe Caligula when asked the same question about him...

    Except that "right wing media" only reaches 1/10th the people the "left wing media" reaches.

    Given that fact, who is more effective at hate and division?

    Yes and the Zogby poll says that the political side that does that is the Trump side.

    Yes and of course the Republicans blame the media for reporting about the division that Trump spends his Presidency creating. Just subtract the Trump numbers from the press numbers and you find the press is only guilty for about 6%. So division 67% Trump and 6% the press.

    The last paragraph of the Zogby press release says:

    "It must also be noted that majorities of voters in many of the same groups that felt the mainstream media spreads hate and misunderstanding, also felt that President Trump is responsible for the spread of hate and misunderstanding, but more voters overall, and in most sub-groups, blame the media slightly more! "

    Very telling that a significant majority believe that the President of the United States is responsible for the spread of hate and misunderstanding. This has to be the greatest condemnation of a US President in the history of America.

    And the media thinks itself smart, like you do.
    It's amazing how many people on the left have self-confidence and control that are so weak that they lose their sh*t every time the president tweets!
    It's not about the little crap the left is focused on with Trump- it's about the damage being done as democrats get further and further into the socialist frame of mind.
    They have always wanted to steal from somebody else's garden, but now they want to claim it's the righteous thing to do. Incredible. Small adolescent minds in full-sized adults, throwing tantrums and unable to maintain civility.

    Sallyally evidently posts crap that you like. Avoiding HISTORY of dem losses is important for you to understand in order to CHANGE to keep from going down the tubes.

    It's a guarantee now with the SAME OLD LEADERSHIP (and policies) taking over the House now.

    Too funny! :roflol:

    The damage is done by each political party. There is no doubt about that. Both parties are the party of the elites.
    No party is for the Average working class American. Period.
    The LW will tax and spend, your stealing? While the RW will borrow and spend, eventually causing another recession. Just wait.
    And then the taxpayers will have to bail out the elites, once again.
    Small adolescent minds thinks 1 party is better than the other party.
    Small adolescent minds thinks the 24/7 media is actually news. It's trash National Enquirer reality tv. And both wings spew BS to cowtow to partisans. The have to sell advertising. That is the only way they stay in business.
    Small adolescent minds, will tweet divisiveness several times a day.
