A majority of Americans believe the establishment media is acting as the primary political opponent to President Donald Trump, according to a new poll by TIPP. Fifty-five percent of the public told TIPP that they are “weary from the media’s persistently negative coverage of President Trump,” and 54 percent say the news media “has assumed the role of the opposition party, constantly opposing the president and his policies at every turn,” according to an article in Investors Business Daily, which sponsored the TIPP poll.

As far as I’m concerned journalists in the establishment sense AND the big media and their little bastard cable children offshoots are the ENEMIES of real America.

The MSM negativity is so incessant that anyone with an above room temperature I.Q. can see through it. You would think that they would at least feign a bit of impartiality with a couple of positive articles, but they are so immersed in their hatred, they can’t see their strategic blunder. I say “carry on” idiots.
Something told me to watch “Fox and Friends” this morning.
I clicked on the TV JUST BEFORE Judge Napolitano launched into one of his customarily brilliant commentaries on the current Democrat created Russian NON-SCANDAL that has BACKFIRED on them into the burgeoning WIRETAPPING SCANDAL that should — if Congress does it’s job (FOR A CHANGE) — put obozo and/or his mendacious minions in the slammer! This is EXPLOSIVE STUFF and puts the lie to the FAKE NEWS the left and media (but I repeat myself!) on PMSNBC, NBC, CNN, etc. have been dispensing!
Slide out to 28:07 for the 9 minute segment with His Honor!

They’ve gotten away with so much over the years, they feel emboldened to do whatever they want, regardless of ethics, accuracy, or impartiality. Luckily, they’ve gone so far overboard in their efforts to take out Trump, even some of the biggest lemmings are waking up and noticing.

Indeed media sleeps with democrats and other sluts.
