Speaking of lies I've brought this point up several times and every time it is ignored by the Trump folks who crawl under the bed when pressed on the topic. But I'll keep trotting it out in hopes that one will have the balls to address it as they continue to throw the term "liars" at the press and Hillary.
Are you familiar with the term "biased". I have been following them throughout the campaign season. The issue becomes that they use word play in order to stump their less than sharp audience.

Exactly. I didn't need to do a study to figure it out though. They use what I call "word play", what they say has to be dissected.
It has gotten to the point that many of the websites have became so untruthful and one-sided that people, who think for themselves, just by-pass them as not to end up quoting something false. People are sharper than the media think.
The reality is that a disaster area is no place for political theater. The governor of flood-ravaged Louisiana asked President Obama to postpone a personal visit while relief efforts were still underway. Meanwhile, by all accounts, the substantive federal response has been infinitely superior to the Bush administration’s response to Katrina. The governor also made the same request to Donald Trump, declaring, reasonably, that while aid would be welcome, a visit for the sake of a photo op would not.
Sure enough, the G.O.P. candidate flew in, shook some hands, signed some autographs, and was filmed taking boxes of Play-Doh out of a truck. If he wrote a check, neither his campaign nor anyone else has mentioned it. Heckuva job, Donnie! So, that's what we have, the boorish, self-centered Mr. Trump made a ham-handed (and cheapskate) effort to exploit Louisiana’s latest disaster for political gain, while the President sent in real aide and kept out-of-the way, as the Gov. of Louisiana asked.
I have no idea what "lies" the OP is trying to show. Apparently the Trump definition of "lies" is reporting what actually happened.
I beg to disagree.
Trump is indeed a bad candidate. But the media, if they want to fulfill their true mission, should not engage in propaganda of any kind.
Trump has no complaints. The media followed him around like a pack of hungry dogs for over a year, and he fed them very well, just being Donald. he got at least $36 million's worth of free publicity while all his primary opponents had to pay for whatever publicity they got. By any measure, that's a pretty good deal.
Now that things have gotten serious, the dogs are hungry again, but they won't be satisfied with junk food scraps this time.
Neither the OP nor anyone else has shown that media is reporting something that isn't true. Reporting facts, that just happen to be uncomplimentary to Trump, isn't biased.

Interesting editorial. Why don't you start a thread about it? This one is about the lies and distortions of the media, not the candidates. Who, both, are terrible.
good, there should be no limits on doing whatever it takes to chop down this dangerous bufoon
So a Leftie admits that they support corruption.
