The people in media today, must be the same people that would make up some BS to start some chit. So they could sit back and talk about it and cheer for their buddy, in school.


Made up and fake news with unnamed sources hourly, coming out of CNN & MSNBC. Just so they can sit back and talk about it.

Yeah, they were all the little guys in sports who couldn't play and started crap by talking trash and then disappear when the inevitable fight starts.

One big rule in media is "publish or parish". If they don't have anything to talk about they will die.

It leads to a lot of nonsense being bandied about. I hate it and its just one of the many reasons I hold the media in contempt.

Yeah, of course. Thousands of people over dozens of publications, all bound together by the desire to lie about the news b/c they're really into politics. And they all keep their mouths shut so that they keep their $30-40k salaries and really make life tough for Donald Trump.

B/c that makes more sense than the one person they're all reporting about being as bad they're reporting.

The media is a bunch a alcoholics. They drink their conscious away, for the lies they know they tell daily, from a teleprompter.

Media lies from teleprompters! I think there is a Frontline investigation in the works on this topic.

Yes, it is clear the OP may have some experience with that.

Thousands of them, working at dozens of agencies and depts, all acting in unison w/o breaking ranks to make up the news just to mess with Trump. B/c that level of coordination at that scale is something you normally see in life.

Here's the funny part: A Republican comes out in public against Trump in public, you and your ilk drag them through the mud and call them useless, liars, thieves, etc. A Republican comes out against Trump in private, you and your ilk complain about why don't these "sources" come out in public?

This is why we can't have adult conversations. We're dealing with children who want their cake and eat it too. You try to discredit Republicans who publicly go against Trump and complain about the "fake" ones who aren't doing it public. You guys are clowns.
