Study: Media’s Biased Coverage of the Election Likely Handed the Presidency to Biden
MenRec ^ | 11/29/20 | Rusty Weiss

Posted on 11/29/2020 6:02:17 AM PST by rustyweiss74

A study conducted by the Media Research Center suggests biased media coverage may have tilted the election in favor of President-elect Joe Biden.

The study consists of an analysis of eight major news stories that the MRC suggests were not covered appropriately, along with a survey of how that coverage affected the election.

It shows that a very significant 17% of Biden voters would have abandoned the candidate if their knowledge of the issues had been different.

Imagine how many would have actually gravitated to President Trump had the media coverage been even vaguely fair to him and his presidency.

The topics that the MRC felt were not covered fairly include:

- Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations against Biden. - The Hunter Biden scandal. - Kamala Harris’ radical left-wing platforms. - The jobs recovery during the pandemic. - Economic growth in general. - Trump’s historic Middle East peace agreements. - America’s energy independence under Trump. - The success of Operation Warp Speed in developing a vaccine for COVID-19.

The combination of “burying Biden’s bad news” and “hiding Trump’s successes” proved fatal in swing states, the report claims.

Don’t know why you left off all of this from your cut and paste mental regression blog. You didn’t even write it. You just pasted it on your blog, then made it clickbait on our dime.

**********

“The left-wing news media didn’t just poison the information environment with their incessantly negative coverage of President Trump going into the 2020 election,” NewsBusters Rich Noyes writes.

“They also refused to give airtime to important arguments of the Republican campaign — both pro-Trump and anti-Biden — which meant millions of voters cast their ballots knowing only what the media permitted them to know about the candidates.”

Noyes adds that the numbers show that one in every six voters would have abandoned Biden if they had heard about or had knowledge of just one of the stories above.

“A shift of this magnitude would have changed the outcome in all six of the swing states won by Joe Biden, and Donald Trump would have comfortably won a second term as president,” Noyes concludes.

The Media Needs to Be Revamped From Top to Bottom

The biased media in America needs a revamping of their role in this nation from the inside out.

None of this is surprising – we’ve seen the reports of over 90% negative coverage for President Trump, we know the ideological leanings of most major news anchors in this country.

It is overwhelmingly liberal.

There is no longer any reporting of facts on major news networks, there is only opining and slanted coverage.

The one arena where President Trump could get his message out to voters was social media, and the Big Tech companies joined establishment media this election season in suppressing information.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) recently questioned the CEOs of Facebook and Twitter about how they “are coordinating together to control information.”

Dr. Robert Epstein, a guest with Fox News host Tucker Carlson, explained how the Big Tech companies manipulated the election by influencing voters.

The first thing Epstein and his researchers found was that “Google’s search results were strongly biased in favor of liberals and democrats.”

“This was not true on Bing or Yahoo,” he added. “The bias was being shown to pretty much every demographic group we looked at including conservatives.”

Epstein also claimed that the ‘vote reminder’ feature on Google only went out to liberals, not any of his conservative agents in the field. Google only corrected this ‘mistake’ after Epstein’s team publicly called out the problem.

He added, “These manipulations – the ones that we’ve so far quantified – could easily have shifted at least six million votes in just one direction … that’s the bare minimum at this point.”

Of course, Twitter labeled that claim of voter manipulation by tech giants as “disputed.”

Just as they have with every single post about concerns regarding the integrity of the election.

As for the MRC study, they conclude: “It’s important to note that not all of these voters would have switched to President Trump, of course (although about 6% of Biden’s voters say that’s exactly what they would have done).”

However, “Just by choosing to abandon Biden, these voters would have handed all six of these states, and a second term, to the President — if the news media had properly informed them about the two candidates.”

What are your thoughts on the report?

a very significant 17% of Biden voters

Simple NOT True.

The enemedia's biased coverage only setup plausible deniability against the backdrop of a massive Trump Landslide, and the largest fraud effort in American history.

Keep up the talking point that Biden won the swing states! Biden lost the swing states! FRAUD WON THE SWING STATES! Keep up the fight! The evidence of the fraud must be exposed now and it must be undeniably accurate.

They have to be held accountable. When Biden messes things up, make sure you remind the media they are to blame.

The media moved from bias into open collusion with Biden. They absolutely refused to investigate or even mention the Hunter Biden harddrive. They knew full well that Biden was a corrupt politician that fabuously enriched himself and his family during 47 years of “public service” but he is a vile man who used his diseased addicted son as his babman. The media has allegiance to the globalists and not to the American people.

The media and tech bias just reduced the number of extra fraudulent ballots needed to make the final tallies favor Biden.

Hey, nice to see you posting. Well, looks like you assembled 99 percent of it from other sources and pasted it into your blog. Can’t figure out why you cut it off mid-blog and made it clickbait, since your blog doesn’t own the words that you pasted. Why even excerpt your own blog?

Ooh! A thread hijack! Sorry, Rusty! But be sure to donate!

Wow, didn’t know I owned so many “blogs.” Guess I can spend all day not spamming FR with them while not donating. Oh, wait. I DO donate. Someone has to pay for you and Rusty to spam FR with your clickbait. But that’s neither here nor there.

Oh, wait. I used to have a blog. Once. I excerpted it here once. No, I didn’t excerpt it here. I excerpted it at the blog. I posted it in full here, and wrote “read less at the blog.” I dyslexic like that. I also don’t not donate, unlike most FR resident spammers. Hey, what are you gonna do?

Okay, back to the mental regression cut and paste thread. The rest of the cut and paste from his blog is on post 2, since the blogger didn’t write and doesn’t own the excerpted words from his spam OP.

How exactly is that 'blog pimping'? All I see is sourced articles, like we're supposed to post.

Some require excerpting, due to copyright issues. You've been here long enough to know that. It actually happened to me the other day.

He's not claiming to be the author, nor does he own the respective websites. So no 'blog pimping'.

You, on the other hand, almost every post you make here is some form of self-promotion.
