Wow. That is stunningly disgusting.

If Melania Trump wears white, it proves that the GOP is racist.
If The Bitch wears white, it proves she’s “soft and strong” and “a dream come true.”

And this tripe actually got PRINTED.

Excellent presentation.

It is so blatant.

What’s even worse is that it is everywhere and often subtle.

Philly.com probably thought their readers would not remember what they had printed nine days earlier.

NOBODY of course was going to catch the bias by this alleged fashionista, NOBODY. You see NOBODY is as clever as they are, so they can be, and say whatever they wish as NOBODY is as aware as they are, NOBODY.

It is all advocacy journalism now. I doubt objective journalism is even taught in journalism schools now.

The more these liberal nutcases, posing as journalists, are exposed, the better.

Steve Benen of MSNBC did exactly the same thing -

Republic convention had the lady whose son was killed

headline RNC manipulates grieving mother for partisan gain

Demo convention with Kahn and his son which was killed

headline Kahns words will not soon be forgotten

I wonder if this pinhead “journalist” lives in the Philadelphia district that, in 2012, was won by Obamalamadingdong with 100% of the vote. Come to think of it, weren’t there more votes case there than there were registered voters?

Nah, Obama’s administration has ALWAYS been ethical, transparent and forthcoming.

This is propaganda, without a doubt.

Its better than Soviet propaganda in its subtlety and quality, but the goals are the same.

That is also a perfect example.

Atrocious double standards abound.

With the guys I knew from Philly in the Army, they probably didn’t remember. M. Gilligan is the exception. He was sharp as a tack.

The legacy media have received orders that essentially make them Kamikaze pilots against Trump.

They are to stop Trump at all costs, and all the crap about impartial journalism and ethics has been jettisoned, making it impossible to land after the election with any credibility.

Trump isn’t running against Hillary. He’s running against the rigged system that would have been just as fat, dumb and happy if the suckers chose her or Jeb, but are determined to keep Trump from exposing and dismantling the crooked game they depend on.

This is only the start. I expect that “journalists” will soon start calling for Trump to be stopped by any and all means and for his supporters to be met with violence.

Blatant bias will seem tame by comparison.

I think we can safely say that philly.com and all its affiliated companies will not be a part of President Trump’s press conferences.

She doesn’t get paid enough for a good orthodontist, or cosmetic dentistry.

Well spotted - first class post - you nailed it.
Sometimes you think to yourself that you must be crazy, but no, you are right, this is the level of detail that you need to go to in order to disassemble the Mainstream Media propaganda.
