The CNN shills were besides themselves last night over a recent Trump speech. The details of his oratory presentation are meaningless. My question to you, the lifetime democrat is this: is the media’s coverage of President Trump helpful and appropriate?
I suppose you’d think that I’m against fervent criticism of the President. But you’d be wrong. As a point in fact, I think it’s necessary for the media to examine every fucking thing the people in power does, including the people who they love — like Obama and John Podesta. I get why conservatards are livid with the media — given the fact that Obama got a pass for 8 years.
Think about it. If the media was in fucking war mode with every god damned politician, lobbyist, judge, President and anyone of influence, the world would be a better place. But when the media only goes against those who are ideologically opposite from their worldview, they lose all credibility as an objective source for news and information.
That’s the point.
Although small, we don’t shill for anyone, in any party, and will report on any news item that is wrong for the ordinary egg cracking folks.
Here’s Paris Dennard dressing down the CNN panel, and especially Paul Begala, for their disgraceful coverage of the President.
I think we need more disgraceful people on the air and in print. We don’t need sycophants. I say, stock the media with people who don’t give a fuck and let it all burn.

completely off topic, fly if you haven’t seen it yet, check out the seven five on NFLX. great documentary on corrupt cops in 80s-90s Brooklyn.
I know all about it first hand. Murder was not a crime cops would pursue for justice.
How did Obama get a pass? FoxNews has more viewers than CNN and they tear apart Obama and Hillary at every turn.
Trump is a proven pathological liar, how can you blame anyone for hating a lying president that wants to ruin the environment, take money from the needy, and strip healthcare from 25 million people?
Benny, what do you think would the press would do if Trump sent $1.7 billion in cash to Iran, strapped to pallets in three separate plane-loads?
Sure, it was in the news – but did talking heads spend weeks excoriating Obama over it like you might expect with Trump?
When have any media spent weeks excoriating Trump over anything? Never happened. Most try to pretend he is acting normally, which he is not.
This was the all time most ignorant comment from you frog. Completely off the wall. Taxes, Alicia machado, grab her by the pussy, just to name a few….get in touch with reality buddy.
Trump constantly did or said something even more awful than he’d done the previous day, so that no one thing could be focused on for weeks.
If it had been focused on for weeks, though, in any of those cases and many others, he would have deserved it. He’s extraordinarily in appropriate and incompetent.
Just a few small items to point out:
“My question to you, the lifetime democrat is this: is the media’s coverage…” – Needs a comma after “democrat” imo.
“I suppose you’d think that I’m against fervent criticism of the President. ” – affirmative
“Although small, we don’t shill for anyone, in any party, and will report on any news item that is wrong for the ordinary egg cracking folks.” – misleading / deceptive
” I say, stock the media with people who don’t give a fuck and let it all burn.” – contradictory, see also, “As a point in fact, I think it’s necessary for the media to examine every fucking thing the people in power does…”
I am sure your wife loves you.
Lmao
“when the media only goes against those who are ideologically opposite from their worldview, they lose all credibility as an objective source for news and information.”
Interesting that you would say that, given your love of Fox News, Drudge, Jones, Breitbart that do exactly that. They obsessively bash Democrats.
Media has been unfairly biased in favor of Trump during the election campaign and pretty much won the election for him. Mainstream media did 600 consecutive days of coverage of HIllary’s emails.
Study: Hillary Clinton, not Donald Trump, gets the most negative media coverage
http://www.vox.com/2016/4/15/11410160/hillary-clinton-media-bernie-sanders
Yes, MSM outlets did technically endorse her. But they kept bashing her so often and to such a degree that people started thinking that she was as flawed a candidate as Trump, which is preposterous.
Trump behaves very unpresidentially, lying constantly and showing more interest in his chocolate cake than in what he’s doing militarily when he’s bombing another country. He often makes little sense when he talks. And he constantly bashes the media for reporting truths he does not like.
I think the media has been far too lenient with him, actually.
I don’t think they have been unfair, he’s actually a fucking retard. However, the shit the media has a focus on is typically meaningless. If all I did was listen to msm, I’d wonder what the fuck their problem was with him….. it was the same shit with obama, though. Most of the shit I read about him on a Fox News or even here for that matter, is actually shit I couldn’t give a fuck less about…… Media in general has one goal, to sell a bias. Bunch of motherfucking frauds….
We are immersed in Right Wing propaganda. Even MSNBC is loading up on Right Wingers. NY Times has hired a climate change denier. There is no Left Wing media. There is Right Wing media and media that “shows both sides” even if one side is lies. Since most of the lies are Right Wing, that means that “neutral” media leans moderately to the Right, and Right Wing media leans far to the Right.
Yes, media sells a bias– and it’s always a Right Wing bias.
Frog lives in his own bubble
Yes, I am sure that the reality I live in, seems like a bubble to you Far Right Wingers on this site.
If Hillary had done what Trump did.

One thing that is important to know, the sources of your media have 0 conviction. They jump on whatever is hot to sell you some shit. Nationalism is the new hot thing. It’s likely being preached to you by a man that drives a German car, wearing a shirt made in China, shopping at a chain grocery store, living in a planned community. Men no longer have conviction.
That’s what you think. American media is CIA psyops guided. The quicker you come to grips with that, the more irrelevant you will view them.
Are you talking about the Deep State?
http://billmoyers.com/2014/02/21/anatomy-of-the-deep-state/
I’m fully aware the media is irrelevant, more like a sad joke really. The CIA can’t be level 9 ninja skilled and incompetent at the same time. Yes, I know, 85D chess or what the fuck ever. That’s always what makes me laugh when I hear about these government conspiracies from the same people that tell me how incompetent the government is. Maybe they are just fucking morons like most people? If there were mostly truths from most of the conspiracy types, they’d be fucking dead, floating at the bottom of a river.
Big Government is the hammer. Humanity is the nail. What the fuck are you trying to say. Look at Africa for example. They know exactly what they are doing. And they are good at it.
Don’t ever ask an adult what they are trying say.
Ironbird maybe really can’t tell what normal people are saying. Just like we can’t tell what he is saying. He seems to speak a different dialect or something than most people.
It is certainly a Right Wing dialect though. “Big Government is the hammer. Humanity is the nail.”
He may be singing a different tune once Trump gets rid of all the “regulations” that are really “protections” citizens have from polluted air and water and food, prescription drugs that are poison because they haven’t been tested properly for bad effects, various kinds of fraud etc.
Very few have conviction now. That’s true. It’s a problem with a capitalist society where anything or anyone a person values and has convictions about, can easily be tossed aside when an opportunity to make money arises. News media have become entertainment, because entertainment makes more money than news.
Yes, nationalism is indeed the hot new thing. It’s been made to fit into the Right Wing GOP propaganda very easily. They just claim that all the “globalists” and “elites” are Democrats, even as the White House is filled up with wealthy Republican crony capitalist welfare queens eager to increase their feeding at the public trough.
Had a contractor guy preaching to me about nationalism at the bar one night. I wonder how many illegals he hired for the cheap labor. Shit, when I learned how much workers comp was for a roofer, I couldn’t blame him….. He left in his fancy new Mercedes…….Meanwhile I went home and sat on my gorgeous couch made in North Carolina. Drank a smoothie with fruit from my garden and some from the local farmers market. Admiring a gorgeous chair made in Michigan, with my wife’s piece of shit Ford in the driveway. You know who’s MAGA? Probably not the dude selling you the bullshit narrative he’s not living himself.
That’s why so few have conviction in a capitalist society. It’s easier to just make money selling bullshit narratives that you’re not living yourself. Trump is the ultimate picture of that. Exciting crowds with bullshit.
The thing about intelligence agencies that make them capable of effing up more than other people is that they have more power. Knowledge is power. And they have secrecy, so they know what’s going on, what they are doing, but no one else does.
When everything you do is hidden, you can get away with doing a lot of wrong stuff– whether it’s incompetence, corruption or both.
Teleprompter reading monkees barking propaganda back and forth like a frustrated gorilla throwing its own shit at the zoo. Possibly back when Mom and Pop shops made up most of the “News”. It had some truth. Possibly.
Bill Clinton was impeached for a blow job. With Trump, it seems everyone around him has heavy duty connections to Russia or Turkey or somewhere, but the investigation isn’t even being done. The supposed investigators are buddy buddy trying to help Trump, not investigating. Outrageous. Hillary Clinton was investigated half to death over nothingburger scandals.
Of course Dems are treated badly and Republicans treated well, by the media and everyone else. But that comes with power I guess. Republicans are a lot better at winning elections, because they lie so easily, and voters are naive enough to buy it when someone tells them whatever they want to hear. Trump is the ultimate Republican, since more lies than truths, come out of his mouth.
Can’t let this slide.
Clinton was impeached for perjury and Obstruction of Justice.
Right. Just like if he were asked in court “What did you have for lunch yesterday?” And he said “chicken.” And he had forgotten, he had a hamburger. That would be perjury because he lied.
It was a witch hunt where they tried for years to find something to pin on him and finally did. But a personal sexual affair had not bearing on the job of president.
So, yes, technically, he was impeached for those things you say. But in reality it was a witch hunt. And then W came along and got tons of people killed by lying about WMD. And no one impeached him? Why? Because he was a Republican. And Republicans can literally get away with murder in this Right Wing country.
Ugh no.
That’s not perjury (giving the wrong lunch item – a little something called intent) and you know he was disbarred.
Of course. No Republican would ever be disbarred over a blow job but a Democrat can be pilloried for nothing.
Probably almost everyone has some little nothing thing they would lie about if asked. If Ken Starr does a witch hunt on you for years, they will find that thing. But that’s only done to Dems, not Republicans.
Same thing with Hillary and Benghazi. Interminable expensive investigations, finding nothing at all in that case.
For starters, if we want to know whether the media is “fair” overall, we need to know who owns the media. Turns out it’s 6 Giant Corporations that Control The Media:
https://tinyurl.com/z7ettek
Then we find out names of top executives, their allegiance and whether we can determine any kinda overall pattern, i.e. a group that represents 2% of the general population is over-represented by ownership and leadership (CEO, VP, BOD, etc.). Then we determine the general agenda of this group and we have our answer to “fairness”.
Should we dig that deep for answers or it’s better to speculate here endlessly? It’s the usual special suspects if you need a hint. And I am not even using brackets as not to give it away.
Ooh truth bomb blast unleashed. Watch as the usual suspects try to deflect and come up with a fake narrative as opposed to answering it head on.
mind BLOWN!!
Dude. you are so right.
All those “ruling” elite” are white english speaking male. LET’S FUCK’EM UP! Let’s unite against those satan worshiping demons.
Oh wait… I see what you’re doing… You almost had me there.
ok move along… nothing to see here.
Ah, the nutjob and “Moosh” end the discussion with their usual anti-semitic tolling. The Joos, the Joos!!!!
End discussion? What? “Their usual anti-Semitic tolling”? What?
I have never done such. Prove it fag. Or is that out of your brains vocabulary? It seems so, so I will let it be. Good night.
