Gotta give it up to all these folks who are being berated and yelled at in public. No one has even raised their voice back.

I'm surprised you'd say that Chico, the fact that Trump aggressively goes after his attackers is effective in that it only makes his supporters dig in deeper. Sure it makes his haters dig in deeper too but we can only do so much when his supporters are willing to follow him blind on every issue.

President Donald Trump lost 204,000 of his 53.3 million followers.

Singer Justin Bieber lost about 2.7 million followers, while President Obama's total dropped by nearly 2.4 million. That represents almost 2.5% of their respective followers.

New organizations took a hit too. CNN's breaking news account lost roughly 1 million followers, while the main New York Times account lost about 730,000.

Seems like Trump's followers are real people, and CNN/NYT has fake followers for their fake news.

Yet you can not name a media source that you trust.

Yet Obama had double the followers on twitter, so how do you figure???

How much of a decline there will be for Trump, who has 53.4 million followers, and Obama, who has 104 million, remains to be seen. One thing is likely: A backlash is coming. Conservatives have complained for years that these kinds of purges unfairly target conservative voices who don't agree with the political views of Twitter's largely liberal staff.

For Twitter, this is just the latest effort to restore trust with users. Follower counts, a key measure of online popularity and influence, should be accurate, it says. So it made the decision to no longer include Twitter accounts that it had frozen for suspicious behavior in the totals of followers listed on people's profiles.

There are things I like about all of them but unlike many others I realize that journalist are all so just humans and make mistakes as do Doctors,Teachers and Politicians.I all so can tell the difference from an "OPINION MEDIA" to a news media ,Shepard Smith is very good for one,there are many,good honest people in the media who do good honest jobs.

The problem is, I dont think any of them are very good at it anymore. Very few articles are written in the spirit of "just the facts ma'am". Certainly, in my opinion, none of the outlets (fox, cnn, cbs etc) that put themselves as news first opinion second are reliable enough to trust their information on their name alone. CNN was at one time but social media and internet speed of news has changed that.

As for reporting agencies like ap or reuters, I trust reuters the most. In a short answer to your question reuters would be my most trusted news source.

I also like british broadcastng for an outside of the us viewpoint of stories, not that they don't have bias, but their bias is shifted from the traditional left right here in the us so as to give you insight through perspectives

My local news tends to be very unbiased along with the richmond times dispatch

ABC morning shows and nightly news seems to be not that biased imo.

CBS and NBC...Morning and nightly news is clearly biased. I think CBS tends to be the most liberal lean with biased language, cherry picking facts.

To me, the most offensive is CNN...it’s straight propaganda and tabloid. The best thing they do is refuse to give any context, sensationalized headlines, they leave out facts, they refused to “prosecute” the obama adminstration for the exact same policies just several years ago, they present editorials as fact based, biased language, etc.
