Is Media polling an joke? Look at the sample Reuters uses:

626 Democrats (52%) 423 Republicans (35%)

52% Dems? Gallup says it's 26%.

If true, and I do not doubt it, this should be a crime.

How pitiful. How desperate. HOW CROOKED AND DECEITFUL!!!

National polling doesn’t mean squat. normal swing,states plus Wisconsin, Michigan,New York and New Jersey. They just poll in the east coast and call it good. Total fraud, Means zip.

No, it's very serious. The Liberal Media is using propagandistic polls to try to convince Trump supporters that resisting the Wicked Witch is futile.

As Rush said on Friday, the media polls are now being used to shape political opinion not to reflect them. They are a tool used by the crooked media against candidates they don’t like or agree with. Focus on the goal, get out and vote in November.

I’m kind of a chicken little here. I, generally, believe in polling if done correctly. After all Barry the muslim won 2 elections that were reflected in polls. My problem is with the American people. Is Hillary,the unindited criminal, really 14 points ahead? Are Americans really that stupid? History says they are. If DJT was a raging insane maniac(which he is not) he would make a better President. I’m speaking as an ex Scott Thompson/Cruz man. There is a sickness in this country that transcends politics. I can’t even conceive of one person in the electorate who could morally pull the lever for Hillary.

I agree with some of your comments on the social condition of the country, but this poll, has been shown to be an utter fraud.

Lies, lies,

Everywhere they lie,

They’ve got no integrity, blows my flippin mind

They say this, they say that,

It’s all freakin lie...ie...ies...

Say now, mister, can’t you read

Trump has conservatives de-ceived,

You can’t vote, you can’t meet,

You ain’t supposed to be he...ee..ere...
- - ->

The sign said, Trump supporters welcome,

Come in, meet Him today.

And when he said “Make America Great”

It was a prayer we all had prayed.

So I put my workin’ boots on

And tied them up good and tight.

Where You lead, I’ll follow you, Sir.

We’ll get there, and we’ll be all right.

Ohh...ohhh...ohhh...lies, lies, everywhere they lie...etc.

I hope the media are lying. Cnn reporting that Hillary is leading by double digits. In addition, they had a scathing commentary on Trump in Scotland at his golf course. Hillary appears to be taking cover by issuing a statement. On some level I think she’s smart to stay out of the headlines.

Brace yourselves because this manipulated polling data will be put out by the MSN on a daily basis until Nov.

The value of polls like this lopsided one favoring Hillary, is for when the democrats get their fraudulent voting going on election day. No matter how great the turnout for Trump is they will claim that the polls showed that Hillary was ahead at various times. It is of paramount importance that the Trump Republicans find a way to stop or offset the voting fraud on election day. The media cannot be trusted to tell the truth about anything, not the least would be legitimate polling.

Media lies again and again and again...
IMHO we are pitifully unable to properly critique “the media” because we cannot, dare not, properly name it.

The reality is that the fundamental problem is not “media” but journalism.

But how can you critique journalism without sounding like crybabies? The answer is twofold:

  1. journalism provably is not objective but is systematically anti conservative, and,

  2. journalism provably is a monopoly.
How to prove journalism is systematically “liberal?” Not by examples alone, though there is no paucity of them. The fact is that journalism is the business of reporting bad news. Bad news sells, and no one denies it. But that is not an excuse, that is an explanation. Because journalism knowingly is negative, seeking bad news, and yet journalism claims to be objective. But calling a focus on bad news “objective” is a perfect definition of cynicism.

We speak of “the media” (a plural noun), but we use the singular verb, saying, “'the media is' biased.” How to prove that journalism is a monopoly? The answer is bound and gagged, and lying on our doorstep: The very name, "Associated Press” is a dead giveaway:  

People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. - Adam Smith, Wealth of Nations
The AP newswire is a continuous virtual meeting of all major journalists. And nothing to do with “merriment or diversion,” but exactly about the business of journalism.

What we have to complain of is a cynical monopoly, plain and simple. And our complaint must, unfortunately, be directed at least in part toward our fellow citizens, for understandable naiveté:

The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing.

The man whom we believe is necessarily, in the things concerning which we believe him, our leader and director, and we look up to him with a certain degree of esteem and respect. But as from admiring other people we come to wish to be admired ourselves; so from being led and directed by other people we learn to wish to become ourselves leaders and directors . . .

The desire of being believed, the desire of persuading, of leading and directing other people, seems to be one of the strongest of all our natural desires. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)
