Inaccuracies, melodrama, bias, outrage: Journalists showcased plenty during election night news coverage which proved to be intense — and endless. The phenomenon has taken a toll. The weary nation appears to be peeved at the press, and that includes Democrats and Republicans alike who are literally turning away.

I’m just going to throw this out there...
FOX NEWS now bites. They are all in with the MSM...sad
Lol. It gives me SUCH warm fuzzies.
After the most biased election for the left I have ever seen with all the left wing pundits claiming Trump can’t possibly win I wonder how it is they now feel the Russians affected the election.
Wouldn’t you think if that were true they’d have not been so sure of their lousy candidate?
Hopefully, we’ve passed peak bullshit, the point of diminishing returns to propaganda.
Many on Fox seem that way - and I can’t get OAN or Fox Business.
Pointing fingers at the Russians keeps the heat of the MSM.
Agreed, but keep in mind that they were not on the list of media that had colluded with the Hillary team in the Wikileaks case.
Almost every other media outlet had specific connections.
Do you ever watch Hannity and sometimes even O’Reilly? And then on Fox Business - do you ever watch Lou Dobbs?
I agree a lot of Fox is now Faux news.....but not all, not yet.
They don’t need the audience. They are really talking to each other, and most of the talking consists of virtue-signaling.
I agree.
I love Lou Dobbs.
And his little smile is also kinda cute:)
CNN is nothing but ALL Trump ALL the time.
Prior to the election, they were obviously biased. Now they’re just plain rabid.
This story barely scratches the surface.
CNN has dropped to below MSNBC in ratings, NY Times reported a 95% decrease in revenue for the year, now they also just announced they are closing down 8 stories of their building...I’m waiting for the Dallas paper to show signs of major stress...others aren’t doing well, I’m hearing commentators openly refer to them as “New York Slimes” and “Washington Compost”, and by at least one big name personality, can’t remember who.
Trump is shaming them into showing a few seconds of his crowds, they seem to pick the lowest concentration of bodies. He’s been consistently calling them very dishonest people...
It’s taking its toll. They’re losing subscribers, the numbers here surprised me. Democrats...36% are avoiding the news? That was a shocker, thought they’d be sucking this crap up like half melted jello.
NY times shuts down 8 floors:
Lou Dobbs is great! He’s pretty much all I watch now. Great guests usually and he takes no bs!! Don’t even watch my local news anymore.
No one with a functioning brain gives any credence to what the MSM reports.
The bias is shifting form left over right to global over national. Especially at Faux.
Some of us said that Old Corrupt Media was the other big loser on election night. They threw everything they had at Trump and they still couldn’t keep him from winning.
Pointing fingers at the Russians keeps the heat of the MSM.
...
I agree. It’s partly a diversion, but it has other evil goals, too.
Excellent point, my good FRiend.
And...
If I correctly understood, CNN, Brasille, and Clinton conspired (successfully) to CHEAT on debate questions. How many votes were swayed by Mrs. Clinton's (apparent) fixing who knows how much of the debates?
