But they are mean-spirited and getting ugly all the time pretending to be 'noble' journalists.

I always wondered what's in it for them? Have they no self-respect, no integrity, no honor, no patriotism?

Silly questions, aren't they. We see the mainstream media for what they are. Shameless.

False news, coordination with the Democrat party.

Public liscences are involved and some should be denied at renewal time.
Please show some proof or at the very least some REAL examples of what you perceive to be clear cut cases of the media lying about our government... without any your post is just noise


If you wish to make a real case to get rid of or to muzzle the left leaning media you need to prove intent, harm etc. Otherwise it is just whining because you are angry that they are uncovering the malfeasance of Trump and his cohorts.

Please, you're trying to talk to people who don't understand what opinion pieces are. If they take that as "news", well, we should feel sorry for them. Comprehension is not a word in their vocabulary.

It's clear that the left is out to destroy the President and this administration and the mainstream media is on board.

Opinion pieces should be clearly identified as such, and limited to the editorial pages, not presented as news.

Perhaps their opinions have been plastered on the front pages for so long that the left has forgotten they really are just opinions.

Guess not.
problem is you will be completely unable define the ones you like as honest. Whatever standard you attempt to hold the left to the right will also be held. I know you want a system wherein you get to say what is true, what is false, what is right and what is wrong. But lucky enough we have a branch of government to stop you dead in your tracks.

It is really simple. Show everyone here exactly what lies the left leaning media has been telling. Show us the overwhelming proof.

Or is all you have some weak sauce errors? Where is your PROOF that the left leaning media is lying...


come on we are waiting. put up.

How about you give us some proof to support your strong insistence that the left leaning media is reporting Truth.

Here's how it works: you accuse, you put up. Can't do it? Then you deflect. Just like you're doing.
