LOL, ahhh no.it wasn't until the "alternative facts" crew took hold and started screaming fake news that the media was question .Thank God the media has stood firm in the unrelentless coverage of the Tangerine buffoon in the white house.It's their job to question the President and that is what they do.

Pure bullshit.
The media is mostly liberal based pro left.
It doesnt matter which republican is the president, they will go after him on any angle they can dream up.
And their "job" is to sell stories.
And make profits off of that.
They dont have to be truthful stories, they just have to sell.
You try to make it sound like they are some kind of civil service.

It's different. Obama was terrible, therefore the negative media coverage was acceptable. In this case Trump is just a good guy trying to clean up Obama's mess, so it's not ok.

Ummm - from your article:

Quote:
The media coverage of Obama was particularly rough at the beginning of the year, with an average of nearly 47% negative stories compared with slightly more than 15% positive stories during the first four weeks of January, Pew found. As the economy and his poll numbers improved in March, so did the favorability of his media coverage, but the president still has yet to see more positive coverage than negative in 2012.
The Harvard analysis put Trump's at around 80% negative. If Pres Obama had EVER received 80% negative press reports I believe we would have had a societal mass mental breakdown on our hands because of how easy liberals are offended.

I would say in a society in which about 50% of the public leans toward the left and 50% lean toward the right a 47% negative is what you should expect.(which is why I don't look at the 52% negative from Fox as a dispositive to the fact that the media en masse is blatantly biased)

The sheer hysteria and tidal wave that is the mainstream media simply causes a large portion of the population to ignore them. Personally, I haven't turned CNN on in months, and the network news shows and newsfeeds are really useless as well.

Yet the Cult of Trump says Obama deserved that coverage and say Trump does not.The republican hypocrisy is astonishing!

And liberal lack of critical thinking strikes deeper. My post acknowledged fox having a 52% negative made sense just like obama having a 47% negative makes sense given the current bipolar nature of american civil society right now. But an 80%-90% negative from the "mainstream" media is beyond the pale of media bias and is purely venomous.

Not when you take into account that the media only reports what goes on and lets face it,the trump cult refuse's to accept his inability to run the country. It's news and the media is reporting the news .The more the right complains about it just proves that they know there is a problem with trump and just don't want those "problems known".
