It’s how ‘journalists’ are trained...

More media bias: I noticed the RealClear Politics averages, which had been steadily narrowing, suddenly just increased Clinton’s lead by close to a full percentage point. Looking at the reason, they just incorporated a new Reuters/Ipsos “poll” that shows Hillary Clinton up by 8% (in the 4 way race), and 6% in the two way race.

The internals of the Reuters/Ipsos “poll”: 45% Dem, 34% Rep, 12% Ind. Yes, that’s +11D and only 12% Independents. And the “poll” showed Trump up by 10% among independents, not that it matters when you assume that there are almost no independents in the electorate.

I’m sure that functional math illiterates like Shep Smith, who seems in love with the RealClear politics average while having no idea of how it is calculated, will dutifully report that Hillary is surging to a huge insurmountable lead on the eve of the election.

Just had to get that off my chest somewhere...

Meanwhile, 8% think the media favors Trump and 38% perceive no media bias.

Eight percent plus 38% = 46%. So, pretty close to Romney's 47% number of people not going to vote Republican.

I think it will be different this time, though; but just sayin'.
