Well the accusations of trump and the actual facts that franken and conyers are both guilty....they probably all 3 will survive. Public vs private.

I think the liberal institutions Hollywood and the National media are actually bigger issue simply b/c they sell a biased opinion of being just/honest/ morally superior as a strategy to influence the country with liberal causes while not pursuing actual facts and stories that impact us all. They follow a political correct, false narrative and when the chickens come home to roost well, speaks to the fact of exactly what’s wrong with these institutions.

How can these institutions take accusations against trump and others when the fact is their own are committing factual, vetted incidents of sexual harassment and rape in some instances? These are legit questions. We should be asking this questions...shouldn’t we? Hollywood and the media...these aren’t glass houses...these are glass empires...

Is this a joke??? Franken and Conyers both admit and apologized trump has not,if this shit show shows anything is that Dems apologize for their screw ups and or mistakes. Has trump?

No instead he threatens the victims,if any dem had done this you would be screaming!

Re: Media Bias

When will the women who marched against Trump start there protest about Conyers?

Fact is it is a problem that goes beyond political affiliation but the public response is absolutely partisan driven.

I can't fathom for the life of me why people want to make this a partisan issue when the fact remains shitheads abuse their power in despicable ways on both sides of the issue. At least something is being done about it now.

I agree a thousand fold that this empowerment and coming forward is a great thing. The politcalization of every topic is a major part of our society now and when it is the powerful media and political elites who have been for so long touting their role as champions of women's rights they will deservedly face heavy scrutiny.

Well I think because when oreily was fired the national media were high fucking fiving on msnbc, nbc, cbs, Washington Post and the nyt...nothing about victims. Now, the coverage has been clearly muted with multiple articles on cnn that ask “what do you when people you love do bad things” that was written today about lauer as it was about Louis C.K. recently. Nightly nbc news did 3 minutes on it tonight...that’s it. No multiple correspondents or even a entire segment.

It’s partisan because the coverage has made it partisan. But clearly as we keep score, we are seeing not only was the Hollywood seeped in sexual harressment, but NYT, NBC and CBS. So while these folks were spending time reporting on accusations that many are loose with the president, lo and behold major players in the national media were participating in an environment of sexual harassment.

So while lauer was bring up sexual harassment claims against trump and while Glenn Thrush was standing up for women against trump, these guys were actively participating in it.

So much for the war against women...the war was actually going on in Hollywood and the national media.

I better see some mutherfuckers marching in the streets soon....because that’s what they do right? This isn’t some false narrative this time...this is really happening. So March now.

Great story,none of it true but it sounds good except it's BS.
1) Nothing was said about victims becuase ....they are usually anonymous and most all outlets don't want to be seen as attacking victims.
2)O'Reily was an ass and he screamed from the highest mountain top as a superior of everyone and he paid off people, he attacked the accused Lauer has not and as soon as NBC got a whiff of it dropped him ,did FOX do that with O'Reily...NO. News Flash on a 30 min show 3 mins is a long segment FYI.
3)You say "But clearly as we keep score" , no , you are keeping score .....not we.

4)Reporters report.

5)You say"So much for the war against women...the war was actually going on in
Hollywood and the national media." ,Yes it is ,I won't say was becuase it is still going on and always has been but why did you leave out Politics?You are so gun ho to attack "Hollywood and the Media and lump them together you showed your ignorance by leaving out the Politicians,you want to make your point so bad you ignore many of the true facts of the story.Hey you could go work for FOX.

As G1 said, you are the only keeping score. Which if thats what you want to do, then ok. Do you need a safe space where you can celebrate lefty media icons being disgraced? Have at it then boss.

Well its not just about keeping score...but Ill be watching for how they will to change the message. Will a narrative of "War on Woman" survive? I mean, is there gonna be a march? If there was anytime to march, I think it would be now...maybe Al Franken can rally it again.

I really wonder if it wasn't for the NYT Weinstein article, would we have ever have known about Lauer, Rose, etc? Where was CBS and NBC...exactly.

Re: Media Bias

The real story should be about the women that now have the courage to come out against these creeps. Unfortunately people would still rather focus on throwing stones at the other side. Sad!

Re: Media Bias

Democracy's immune system is in trouble. Here's what we can do (Opinion) - CNN

Pretty good opinion article here about how to keeps news in the digital media better/honest... highlights:

A second principle -- already standard in traditional media -- should be that if a digital journalist makes a mistake, the outlet should admit it and correct it immediately. After all, if a mistake is made, the journalist is accountable, not just to the news organization, but to the readers at large. A correction should be done in a way that is equal or greater than the mistake that was published. For example, if the mistake is shared on a media outlet's website and across its social media platforms, the correction should be shared in the same manner.

A final principle would make editors commit to drafting headlines that accurately represent the content of the article, not present the reader with a false understanding of what the piece is about. For example, opinion editorials should be labeled as such, not purport to be news articles. I've also observed a number of headlines that express the unverified claim as a question. This can leave the reader misinformed. While headlines should catch a reader's attention, they shouldn't be deceitful.

Bravo to the last bold statement...CNN wouldn't have a channel or front page. In fact, ALL opinion articles should not be on the front of a website...much like how newspaper's worked...most opinion articles should be placed in the back of the front section.

I agree with most of this Chico. The retraction should always get as much attention as the first headline, yet it never does. I doubt the retraction reaches half the people that see the original headline.

And I would love it if op-ed's were marked as such, I hate reading something then halfway through I read a sentence that has no place in a news story and I'm like, oh shit this must be some random news jagoff's opinion.
