"destroyed by the ignorance of its own people."

But if you're queer, you can marry your boy friend, so ignorance doesn't always win. /sarc

Wow...
A Nation that relies on democratic elections is betrayed when the reporters of the News ('The Media') lockstep support one political party. The CNN toadies blame others for the cancer that they have originated and spread.

To Mock The Media ... sounds like the title of a long overdue book!

Big Media is mock-worthy. They have earned it, for decades.

Exactly its like a bank robber saying that people talking badly about bank robbers is bring down the financial system. The problem with the Elite is that they never consider that they can do wrong.

The “media” has no integrity or class. They insult the First Amendment. They are LIB asshats almost without exception. They deserve being ridiculed until they either resign in complete disgrace or commit harikari. What pathetic, yet often preening, losers. May they rot in their malignancy.

Ashleigh Banfield said: "Either you have a media, or you have what I witnessed in Saddam’s era..."

That's the point Trump is trying to make.

Undermining American Democracy!!!
This from, can you believe it, CNN.

This from CNN, an organization dedicated to undermining American Democracy.

Laughable. Certainly deserving 1000 LOLs.

CNN’s website is like a prostitute. Story after story that is anti-Trump. Some days I have noticed 3-4 bullet points mocking Trump.

They don’t hide their bias at all.

One story about a week ago was about Trump speaking about Phyllis Schlafly’s death.

The headline read (close to) “Trump honors anti-feminist”.

Of all the ways they could have written the headline; that was as biased as they could have done it.

And that’s just one small example.

Suitable graphic.

These people disgust me. Truly pathetic, they believe their own lies and fabrications - and think we really NEED them.

“Apparently Ashleigh has forgotten the deal CNN made with Saddam”

Her short-term memory is also failing. She doesn’t remember the DNC email leak that showed coordination between them and big reporters.

James Woods tweeted this on 9/13:

Think about this: at a huge press event it took some citizen with a cell phone camera to capture the moment that will decide this election.

I agree with Mr. Woods. If it hadn't been for the citizen with the cellphone camera documenting what happened, the eyewittness reports of Hillary collapsing and being thrown into the limo "like a side of beef" would have been pushed under the rug, and ridiculed as a conspiracy theory.

The media is interested in pushing their own political agenda. They have zero interest in accurately reporting the truth.

>>> “When you start celebrating restriction of the media”

That’s what you call projection. Ridicule is not “restriction”. Rather it is merely the free flow of ideas. It is the left who seeks “restriction” as the goal.
