There is only one major right wing media outlet - Fox News.

Whereas the liberal media mouthpieces include: MSNBC, NBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NPR, BBC, Google, Yahoo, MSN, WaPo, NYT, Reuters and on and on.

Kind of unbalanced, don't you think?

The only liberal media source above is MSNBC. The rest are just news sources that focus on facts first. If you weren't in a cult you'd realize that.

Agree, OP - media is super weak.

Journalism is not what it used to be.

Their corporate employers probably issued dictates to keep everything very vanilla.

That you can list all these character flaws and still support him is the biggest FAIL of all.

altho there were clinton supporters among the early birthers ( notably the PUMAs and phil berg ) neither clinton or her campaign did anything to promote birtherism. trump didn't start birtherism but he definitely became it's chief advocate.

You mean the PUNDITS opine? Yeah, that's what pundits do. The news reporters do not. Do you understand the difference?

Yes, because the first 500 stories about Trump from the Fakestream media has "reported on" have proven to be false, I have to assume all Fakestream stories about Trump are false unless proven true (not yet happened).
