Sharyl Attkisson: Theres definitely tilted news coverage. I cant imagine any objective observer who would think otherwise. And, I tell you, I was in a room of journalists in which one of them encouraged the others quite publicly to step up and do something because he said the outcome of this election was so important. And the other thing he said led me to believe and others. He was talking about journalists stepping outside of their role to make sure Donald Trump doesnt get elected. And he received applause for that. Its fine for the pundits to do that but I think journalists are widely overstepping their roles.
Steve Malzberg: Obviously this was an organized event. Where were you? Can you tell us who said it?
Attkisson: It was an awards dinner for a group of journalists and I cant remember which one of the Washington dinners in the past few months. And, you know, he received overwhelming applause The public is much more divided you just dont see their view represented in the news.
Malzberg: Again do you know who stepped up and said that?
Attkisson: No I dont. I believe he was a former bureau chief.
The media were a bunch of liars back then too.
We are living completely under fascism now. They just need to get one more dem in office to finalize everything.
It certainly appears to be the direction we are heading.
Pravda’s got nothing on these yahoos!

Why she doesn’t have Meghan Kelly’s Job is beyond me
You know, I'm inclined to agree. Journalism is dead. All you got left are a bunch of word warriors. Perhaps it's time for our side to knock off the ones who are the enemy. I'm not advocating violence outside the law, just justice. When they advocate violence, and it is coming, invoke martial law and put them down.
They won’t let us do that any more.
