Why only negative on trump by the media? Because there isn't any positive to report. Because they play his own words back, and somehow that is 'attacking' him.
Pretty much everyone but Trump and Cruz get at least as much positive coverage and sound bytes as they do negative. Meanwhile, Trump gets ALL negative when there could easily be VERY positive coverage given to him too. Obviously, it is part of a systematic plan to prevent him from winning the presidency, yet his support continues to grow.
I found more even-handed Trump coverage on CNN and MSNBC than Fox News. It's not that they are pro Trump as much as they are in awe of his abilities as a candidate and don't hesitate to mention it. But I'm not kidding myself about what will happen when it's General Election time.
Except for Jeanine Pirro, Bolling, Hannity and Greta and the Political Insiders (Caddell, Schoen and LeBoutillier) on Harris Faulkner's Sunday show, I'm pretty much over Fox News.

Of course CNN and MSNBC adn every responsible news network is going to hammer Trump should he make it to the general. But what is Fox going to do? It can't endorse Hillary, can it? Maybe it will find Trump's not so bad after all.

That is ABSOLUTELY FALSE. You obviously aren't paying attention outside of this negative coverage, but there is plenty that could be covered. The media has their agenda, which includes generating hype, so that's why Trump get's no respect or positive coverage. He is still resonating with a Uuuuuge portion of the public and is going to dominate this election unless something changes.
You have to do and say positive things to get positive media coverage. Trump can't and/or doesn't want to do that. He takes the low road on everything.

I don't know which network you are watching, but Trump has gotten more air time then any other candidate. So much, that some of us who can't stand the sound of his voice any longer have to mute half of the news to get away from it.
The media has done nothing but give Trump a forum for his views. It's Trump's fault if it is negative. In case you haven't noticed, his campaign and everything coming out of his mouth is pretty negative and nasty.

Ok--you are a Trump cheerleader and are obviously partial, so maybe you are the one who is not paying attention.
The cable networks are covering entire Trump speeches, press conferences and rallies. Those are Trump's own words. Stop trying to make him a victim of the media--that's straight out of Palin's playbook, and even Trump hasn't complained about negative coverage. He's too busy bragging about how wonderful he is, how tremendous everything he does is, and how everyone loves him.
Did you see the camera go to Hugh Hewitt when Trump commented on his radio show. He was visibly shaken.
He wasn't 'shaken', he might have been 'shaking' - with anger - but was too 'politically correct' to ask that gas bag why he wanted to be on Hewitt's show if he thought so poorly of it. Smart move on trumps part, start of with an insult to the people who are asking you questions, argue with them, refuse to answer their questions, and call them names. Yeah, use that on congress, if he gets there, and see how well they work with him. Not everything can be done with EO's, just ask obama!
I wish the press would just drop trump, stop reporting anything about him at all, even if it did hurt ratings for a bit. There is always some other news to report that is of more significance than trumpisms.
In the 12 years of FactCheck.org’s existence, we’ve never seen his match.
He stands out not only for the sheer number of his factually false claims, but also for his brazen refusals to admit error when proven wrong.
