The liberal media and Never Trumpers are cheering a Trump campaign “implosion.”
This comes after nonstop liberal attacks on Trump for responding to a Sharia supporting lawyer at the DNC Convention.
Trump was supposed to know you are not allowed to respond to attacks by Sharia supporting lawyers who support mass immigration from Muslim countries.
So now the media is cheering this “implosion.”
GOP officials are reportedly plotting alternative options to Trump https://t.co/6I58wiqeoR

Even the Never Trumpers are cheering the latest headlines.
By the way, and needless to say, the "Clinton bounce" is far more a Trump implosion.

Remember: This is the same media that refused to report on the dozens of Trump supporters brutally assaulted outside the San Jose Trump rally.
Now this… All the media reports of his campaign collapse were completely fabricated. Howard Kurtz reported, via Instapundit:

Yes it is hard when she is being shown all that cover up by CNN. She has to udnerstand that they are nothing but liars. Once you can show her the movie of Clinton then show her as soon as possible.
The Soviets had no intention of telling their own people even if the West knew about it. Back then, the internet was in its infancy and no Soviets had access to it.
As for 9/11, the use of four planes was deliberate to make sure every American knew it was terrorism on our shores. And every American was angry and filled with resolve against the people who hated America and attacked us, so much so that...
...just seven years later they put one of them into the White House. All thanks to s complicit democrat/communist media/entertainment/academia propaganda complex.
No! The left is in charge. The left does NOT want a civil war.
The questions is, at what point will the oblivious American middle, and the Jon Stewart youngsters, come to realize that they are being screwed, and that they've be sold a pack of lies, and that they've been stealing from themselves, and begin a civil war against the left and those to stupid to realize their stupidity.
It is very easy to contain the spread of information while sustaining an illusion of free and open flow of information, even though it is possible for accurate information to flow around the globe in seconds, that does not mean the right things are covered, or that the events covered, are covered honestly.
The 4th estate is a fifth column lying for the lying liar.
Good point about MSM. The reason you had such a significant % of Bernie supporters and actually anti-Hillary voices is because that is the generation who are using alternative media. I have some faith that Repubs will quit entirely seeing anything on the MSM as anything but propaganda and use other sources such as Drudge, Breibart, etc. all of which deal with the exposes of Hillary and the lies of the MSM.
There is still a generation of Dems and Soft Repubs though who still think they have to turn on the alphabet nightly news and see what the talking heads have to say on Sunday. These are the gullible ones. Unless they have developed ALT sources they’re ripe for exploitation.
The wheel’s still in spin on what the effect of the media technology revolution will be.
In the late ‘90s, I thought we were entering into a new age of enlightend citizenry, but look at what we’ve gotten.
So now I think the effect of the media technology revolution is a passive one (less ill-informed citizenry) than an active one (better informed citizenry).
It’s all a matter of trust; if the public trusts the media is portraying events accurately, they won’t dig on their own. And so now it occurs to me why the media ads for their own news shows emphasize “trust.” If they should really be trusted, why do they have to sell it so hard?
More to the point... if Trump can successfully tie Hillary and all her lies, to the media and all their lies, he'll smash them both. People are furious at these incestuous, interchangeable elites in government and the press pissing on their backs and telling them it's raining.
Yes. And it's more than just accuracy, there is also trusting that the important things will be presented, along with some local spice and fluff. Plus the fact that most people are too lazy and preoccupied with work, hobbies and entertainment to have any reason or motivation to dig.
To the liberals, the press is honest and trustworthy. They just haven't been berned yet.
I would like to thank both of you for a very nice, dispassionate and intellectual discussion of the media issues. It’s common, but not universal, on this forum.
the MSM can’t trick FReepers. We knew it was a flash-mob smear to damper down the Iranian money transfer, the incredible real-time mess at Incirlik, and yet another terrorist attack in England.
There’s a growing number of people who have seen things with their own eyes, and then seen the media report something completely other than what happened. The scales fell off for me about 20 years ago; since then I havent watched an MSM news show or read a newspaper. Why would I? I know now that they write their scripts for these manufactured news cycles in advance, and no matter what actually happens, they report what is in the script even if it is 180-degrees opposite to the reality.
Back at ya!
The left wants a civil war.
I’m game bring it on :o)
