Cool. A thread complaining about a "stick it to the libs" philosophy populated by several individuals who never miss a chance to call anyone voicing a conservative idea, especially if that person is from the South, a toothless, trailer park dwelling, meth using, uneducated, sister ****ing moron as well as a couple who throw the race card every chance they get.

As far as Clinton they usually choose to avoid articles on her rather than run a bad one. I have never ever seen one article on Trump where there was duel opinions allowed to be in a article giving any kind of fair balanced approach and unless you are getting two sides to a argument you aren't getting the full facts to decide for yourself a balanced opinion. Listening to only one side leads to brainwashing.

Just today Yahoo is running on articles about mass shootings and Sandy Hook in a one sided "ban guns" view.

The only plus about Yahoo news is they allow comments and funny enough the majority of commenters disagree with the liberal biased articles published.

I am all about free speech but what ever happened to journalists actually wanting to expose truth rather than forward a agenda? Is free speech healthy when journalists don't care about truth?

Have you seriously ever asked yourself WHY ? Either there is this mass conspiracy, and everyone got together and decided to pick on Donald Trump, or, maybe, just maybe, they see so many things wrong with him that they have to tell the truth ?

Donald Trump is his own worst enemy. If he were able to somehow control himself and act half sane, a lot of these problems of his would go away. But every day he does something even dumber than the day before, and the news organizations are right there to report it. Without fuel there is no fire, and without Trump supplying the ammo, there would be nothing to talk about.

Oh, the hypocrisy is so thick.

He doesn't think it's biased because it reflects his beliefs. Classic confirmation bias.

And what would you prefer them to do, Pedro, lie and sugarcoat everything ? Would it be better if they just ignored all of the idiotic things he does and talked about the latest flower show instead ?

The cold, hard truth is, they are only "biased" because they are saying what they see and what is on their minds. If they turned a blind eye and only reported favorable things that he does, that truly would be FAKE NEWS !

Just because they are reporting things contrary to what some people WANT to hear, does not make them one sided. Trump does something, they report it, and open the discussion up to discuss how that effects us all. I do not want to live in a blind world, like some who live in a country where the government controls the news. I want a free and vocal press, and I would think every American would too.
