    Trump's speech;
    ABC: it was "dark" & "anti-Semitic". http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/scott-whitlock/2017/01/20/abc-trashes-ugly-anti-semitic-overtones-trump-speech

    MSNBC: “dark” and “militant” with anti-Semitic overtones. http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/curtis-houck/2017/01/20/terrified-msnbc-moans-trump-echoed-anti-semitism-hard-hear-very-few

    If you're looking for evidence about how disconnected the media is, and why they completely missed calculated this election, the way they received Trump's speech offers it.
    BRIAN WILLIAMS: A short speech, under 20 minutes, a raised, clenched fist at the end, chants of “God Bless America.” A speech that, in the early 1960s, gave us, “ask not.” Today, gave us “American carnage,” talk of a sad depletion of the U.S. military, of crimes, of gangs, and drugs, wealth, strength and confidence dissipated, factories closed down, and now dotting the landscape as tombstones.

    They consider that "dark", middle America see that as a reality & they're the ones effected it. But, Trump's not just saying he see's what they see, he's saying he wants to root out the reasons that have caused the mess and reverse the job killing trend that's left many out in the cold. So yea, he didn't just give a speech filled with platitudes or even try extending olive branches to anyone in Washington. Now, that many seem dark to these ego-filled snobs in the MSM, but for the ones who are living in real world, Trump offered to work for them. Gee...very "dark", right?

    Mitt Romney said it best "Trump is a phoney, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University.".

    In all honesty she's just doing her job as encouraged by her employer. You know Wolf Blitzer would be just as extreme if he thought he could get away with it on CNN.

    Really? I've been watching FOX, with the exception of maybe 2hrs, all day & haven't seen anyone "UP IN ARMS" about it. So, mind posting evidence of your claim?

    Of course not, they're the Pro-Trump network. Trump could cause a nuclear holocaust, and they'd still praise him for it.
    Fox is as part of the MSM as ABC or MSNBC. By saying the MSM is melting down, you imply Fox is melting down. That was my point.

    Their tactics worked better 20 years ago when people were under the impression that their homes were ATMs and they could live on debt and retire rich. Bad economies have a way of making people not want to hear about sissy baby crap.

    Correct. Most of them are flaming lib's going in, so, getting paid big bucks for having a platform to spew their nonsense is all good, but the big bucks helps keep them in line....you know...just in case sanity starts creeping in.

    The liberal mind is a quagmire of confusion and double standards floating on a sea of hypocrisy. Thinking about it too long will just give you a headache...
