    Maybe you would like them to change it to Fox News where all they do is make excuses and lie about the lies he tells.

    Fair enough. Let's just take one example. The biggest lie of Obama's 8 year presidency; 'if you like your doctor, you can keep him'. Can you post a link to one, even just one person in the MSM that has EVER even asked him about that? I won't even get into Rev Wright, Bill Ayers, his racist comments, and all the other crap that he never once had to talk about.

    It might matter if the media reported the truth. They mostly are a propaganda machine these days and do not deserve respect nor sympathy.

    If Bill Ayers had been appointed national security chief or Reverend Wright had been his Campaign Chairman, I am sure that the press would have been up Obama’s ass a bit too. Your analogies are ridiculous sir. Obama was confronted regarding the comment regarding keeping your your doctor several times. He just handled it better than Trump who continually lies then doubles down when evidence of his lies are presented in living color. Trumps problems with the MSM are his own fault. He needs to learn to quit lying or at least when his lies are exposed to admit it and correct the record.

    Answers a direct question with "if". Liberals must truly ride unicorns and eat pixie dust! Obama, the race baiting huckster! Decimated the military, brought about the worst racial divide in 50 years, gave nukes to our enemy, gave guns to murderers, had more muslim America haters working for him than anyone, drove racist cop killers to act, raped those who could not afford insurance with an illegal tax, tried to destroy the sanctity of marriage, gave terrorists millions in cash, etc, etc,etc. The only conceivable thing worse than Obama are the mind dead idiots that elected him!

    By the way, using Jim Acosta as proof of anything really shows how desperate and out of touch liberals are and how blind they are to reality. Now quick, call me a racist!

    You haven't seen the antifa thugs attacking? The liars in the media? Sure you have. Liberals have to pretend nothing is wrong so they can function in the limited fake world the inhabit. Sometimes it's true, the emperor has no clothes.

    Here's a lying media attack on America from the nineties! Enjoy.



    They should have been put out of business and sent to prison for that.

    I've asked you for the dishonesty. You linked to 2 people who were and their companies fired them.

    As for news agencies being dishonest or not, If they lie/slander, they will get sued on court.
    Will the cater a news story to their audience? Absolutely, I told you this already. They make money by getting their audience to listen/watch/read their stories.
    So, yes, they are allowed to be partisan, which is why Faux, breitbart, and a whole host of RW media sources exist.
    Can they be dishonest? Up to the point of getting a law suit brought against them.

    The only people who were race baited by Obama, were racist to begin with. They had kept in a box by society, but a BLACK prez brought them out of hiding and then tRUMP jumped on the opportunity to bring racism to the forefront to get their votes.

    Obama's admin was the least criminal admin, likely in the history of presidents. Almost certainly in the last 100 yrs.

    Acosta is a Democratic Party operative, pretending to be a journalist.

    He has an agenda, and it’s not to report on Trump accurately.

    So would that be like "fair and balanced," even FOX dropped that charade

    Roger Ailles pulled off one of the greatest cons in history. Pissed over Nixon he got Murdoch to fund a network based on the pretentious theme of "fair and balanced," as if every event had two factual narratives to explain it. By creating a false side to the story, and selling it as valid to an audience who didn't want to admit the obvious, he muddle actual facts just enough to create doubt and bestow legitimacy on what today is recognized as "alternative facts"

    Yet people are fleeing from the monster democrats all over the country. New York liberals just screwed themselves out of 25000 jobs by running Amazon off! Winner, huh? I've cut it off three times and it's still too short!

    I am equally opposed to filtering the news with a rose colored lens. How about unbiased truth, or don't call it the news? Call it an opinion show.

    I am equally opposed to filtering info through a rose colored lens. I would prefer unbiased truth, but I don't think that gets ratings. Its a business selling the product they know their eager audiences wants. Nothing more.

    Personally, I don't care whats on TV at the gym; I listen to audio books while I work out. I would prefer that they don't change it to FOX, I don't to have to wait for Liberals to stop crying before I can use the machine!

    No examples? I didn't think so.

    Mccain was throwing grandmas off cliffs. Romney was throwing puppies out car windows. But nobody thought twice about Obama being BFF with Ayers (a terrorist) and Wright (a racist). Interesting

    Let me know when the MSM bought a house directly beside Obamas, and had people spying on him and his family 24/7 like they did to Palin.

    First of all it was not a direct question but rather a drivel filled analogy which was designed to advance the old Nixon/Agnew turd about good guys being picked on by the press just because they are Republicans...

    Second my response was not directed to you. Your liberal bashing foaming at the mouth nonsense is completely non responsive to anything having to do with my post. My assertion is that Trump has created his own bad press by hiring and associating with inept idiots and appointing several criminals to sensitive government posts.

    In my opinion he should quit whining about bad press and defending indefensible positions. Any President, liberal or conservative who has hired and associated with this type of rabble and goes on idiotic lying tirades nightly on twitter would be similarly castigated. Get a grip.
