The real reason the media has been overtly biased against Donald Trump

Posted on 09/29/2016 4:55:09 PM PDT by TakebackGOP

It's because he defends white people. This is the reason the media is able to openly oppose him. There aren't aren't pressure groups who are going to go after the media's sponsors for doing this. What Trump is doing isn't permissible in the liberal media bubble and the Republican Establishment on Fox News. However, the people who stayed home in 2008 and 2012 are going to show how out of touch the media is on Election Day.

I don’t think so.
This is an organized, coordinated, centrally directed propaganda system.
All these people are taking and executing orders, not what they feel like doing.
If tomorrow they were told to love Trump they would do that.

>>Note all neocons are for Hillary.<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Most are. I thought Rummy was a card-carrying neocon . . . until he endorsed Trump. Cheney too.

They fear him because he’s reaching out to black people.

This. He's also reaching out to Unions and labor, but by far the biggest threat to the Democrats is his gains with Black voters. I've read he's pulling around 25% of the Black vote, and if that's true, Hillary is toast.

Interesting posing history, albeit a short read.

The networks get hundreds of millions in ads for candidates who throw money away

I have always detested the fact that Democrats get for free what Republicans have to spend millions of dollars to obtain; "Air time."

We should have long ago been working on ideas to cut the financial throats of these bastard Democrats running the media system in this country.

I think Fox News has turned liberal because Rupert Murdoch turned it over to his two liberal sons. Next thing you know, Roger Ailes is fired for what I suspect is made up crap.

I agree they know if he winds campaign strategy on ad spending changes dramatically.

However, I would like to see a few ads to know all of our contributions have not been in vain. At what point will he start using the airwaves? Yes, I saw the postings and articles on ad buys.

He is politically incorrect and nothing they have tried reduces his popularity. He appeals to the common man and woman and liberals despise commoners, seeing themselves ad being morally and intellectually superior to everyone else.

I think a lot of the reason media opposes trump is that there is no such thing as working class media. if you look at the parents of those that have gone into news media it is the children of politicians, children with trust funds from rich parents. if you were to look at newspapers and magazines 1950 almost all those in news media had grown up middle class or working poor. Most of those in the media are looking at what goes on in how it will effect them and there family. there is little care about the practical effects of a policy because the wealth of there parents have sheltered them.....if you want to find middle class media go on line and they are there they just don’t have the support of the wealthy gate keepers.

This is a very astute observation and most definitely a large component of the problem. I have been noting for a very long time that being a child of wealth tends to begat socialistic ideas, precisely because the silver spoon children are insulated from most of life's travails.

A lot of people throughout history have noted this effect.

To rise to the top in tv media isn’t a secret, an overwhelming talent to kiss your superior’s arse will propel you to the Anchor Desk.

How difficult do you really think it is to sit at a desk, read a teleprompter and act either serious, jovial or concerned about the latest DNC/Liberal Agenda talking points’ version of the ‘NEWS’...

The business is a complete farce, it’s sheer propaganda delivered by presstitutes and paid for by people who rely on the fools who watch it to keep them wealthy and in power...

I believe that the dread weapon of the media was and still is political correctness. I have a Canadian book titled "Gotcha". It exposes the beady eyes and listening ears of the press. How often has it been that an earnest decent person has made a slip of the tongue. Or indeed a statement taken out of context.

The press has then swooped. Every time the reaction of the person slammed, was to grovel- even break into tears. Sorry, so sorry they would plead. The media circled the person like sharks smelling blood in the water.

Donald Trump does not give a damn about them. Better still, he survives stronger than ever. He has proved their weapon fizzles like a damp firework.

Look at the few who stood up to their newsrooms like Sheryl Attkisson. They banished her from CBS for trying to be objective in her reporting. The Democrat bias in the media is so blatant, and they’re open about it. I get tired of getting into arguments with lefties about media bias. Their usual retort is, “Tell me something that didn’t come from FOX News.” If these morons actually watched FOX News they would know the network is heavily slanted to the left. Our media is like Pravda of the old Soviet Union and all they spew is leftist (Democrat) propaganda.

I think it is because he is breaking the agenda 21 globalism ring.

Very good video, and I’d say you are right, this video sums it all up in so many ways.

It’s all a very positive message, something the commies just cannot compete against, so they have no choice but to be in the perpetual attack mode.

No, that’s not it.

The answer is in posts 2, 3, and 5. Another reason is Trump will tell the truth—the last thing in the world they ever want to happen.

And it's not that they don't know that; it's that they've got nothing else.

It's because he's not a 'protected class' person.

Why do think the globalists chose a black man then a female for the U.S. president slot? CAN'T CRITICIZE EITHER OR YOU'RE A 'RACIST' THEN A 'SEXIST'.
