None of this is normal. And pretending it is, is journalistic malpractice.

Until people stop patronizing those so-called news outlets, this will continue. It is like a drug, people are addicted to this garbage. "BREAKING NEWS", really isn't breaking news, it is regurgitating the same bullshit day after day, "Democrats bad, republicans good".
They thrive because people are watching their garbage. They are not interested in accuracy or truth, that has been pushed out window a long time ago.

(4,998 posts)complaining about the "liberal media", that distortion and misrepresentation accelerated to where much of what is considered the MSM, is now right wing propaganda for the republican party today. It can be legitimately argued as trump controlled media. Just look at what happened at CBS, Washington Post, LA Times, etc.
Look at all the law firms that bowed before the wantabe dictator in the WH.
Hillary's email, Biden's cognition, the media making jokes about Al Gore during the 2000 election, etc.
The real bias isn't the "liberal media", it is the corporate takeover of our Democracy.

(7,975 posts)This has been going on since Reagan canceled the Fairness Doctrine. That opened the door for Fox News and the other media outlets followed suit. Just follow the money as that is home to the malpractice and non-stop lies.

Republicans would either run or twist the truth into an unrecognizable pretzel.

(4,091 posts)All that blank space above represents the coverage it gets. No "voters concerned" articles or segments. No experts interviewed. No weeklong coverage of him calling Greenland Iceland. No daily count of his delusions. This country is so good to white men devoted to the preservation of white male privilege.
