2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHow many times?
Just how many times did MSM broadcast live Trump's "speeches"? How many times? As if he's saying anything newsworthy, ever.
And how many times did Bernie draw crowds in the tens of thousands? How many times did MSM broadcast them live?
Trump is Frankenstein's monster. And supposedly "liberal" media, along with the republican party, is responsible for creating that monster.
I can't stand it anymore...
I remember Jon Stewart saying he's a turd miner. Really, what the media do, at this moment, is just creating turd. All they do is bullshitting all day long.
And while the new media is certainly getting more and more important, it's really frustrating to have no one on TV calling BULLSHIT on all the bullshit we're hearing particularly with regard to the primaries.

Agree with your overall point that the msm are irresponsible jokes. The "new media" is every bit as bad if not worse. The "new media" are larger corporate entities with more influence than the msm. It's not what people think. Time and intelligence are damn near the only way to get the straight story. Really the same as its always been.
