Caddell: Dishonest Anti-Trump Media Have Become ‘Danger to Democracy’
Breitbart ^ | 9 Jun 2017 | Dan Riehl

Posted on 06/09/2017 2:34:30 PM PDT by detective

Pollster and analyst Pat Caddell spoke with Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Matt Boyle on Friday about his reaction to Thursday’s testimony by former FBI Director James Comey as well as the media’s reaction.

“I didn’t think it was a great day for the media, said Caddell. “However, if you watched some of the other cable news networks, you’d think this was a disaster for Trump. It was anything but.” He went on to call out the media for pursuing a political agenda, as opposed to the truth, saying that media today is actually “a danger to democracy.”

I fondly remember the Bush Years (W) when the Socialist Democrat Party continually espoused their belief that, ‘Dissent Is Patriotic!’

Anyone else remember that? If not, look for that old canard to be run up the flagpole again!

I have always liked him.

He was usually left of center but, unlike 99.98% of democrats, he was honest.

I’ve wondered where he’s been hiding...the one Democrat who gets it ends up getting no voice, which sucks.

Caddell is absolutely right...they (anti-Trump)people have lost and completely ruined the Democrat Party, what Hillary didn't do, what Zero didn't do, Comey has completed...

They have no one now to ‘cover’ for them, they have lied about everything, they think they have power, they don't, their acts of child trafficking, sex, lies, back door planning, they steal, they are thieves, they are phony, there isn't one of them that is honest, God Fearing individual. They are the ‘party of evil’ they have brought down our morals: transgender this, transgender that; same-sex marriages; teaching Sharia law to some students in different States, they support AntiFa; they take money from George Soros for the ruination of America...

The RINO’s are the same as the libs, McCain goes over and visits his buddies in ISIS; Romney is the biggest Anti-Trumper there is and look who he has around him: Paul Ryan; Egg McMuffin (who also goes with McCain to see ISIS);

I mean, come on, lets vote them OUT of office, not keep re electing them...we have to if we want what Our President is doing by working his butt off to Make America Great Again!!!

The media industry needs more competition.

Stop funding the Left Media Cartel.

The Democrats and the media are quite prepared to destroy the country in their pursuit of absolute power. They need to be made to pay a terrible price for their treachery, but the question is how to cripple or destroy them.

Same here.

Here they are trying to tell me what’s best for the nation, and they don’t even know our Pledge of Allegiance.

MSNBC, CNN and now Fox have ceased being news channels and become political channels with occasional breaking news.

There is real, live breaking news being reported and photographed live in just about every country and a great many American states right this moment. What a boundless opportunity for someone to create an ACTUAL NEWS network that would hold the attention of millions riveted to the current event and anticipating the next one.

But our “news” networks have all made the decision that bashing Republicans is what Americans want to see 24/7.

They are THAT stupid.

He is 100% correct, but what is to be done about it? Lawsuits? I've already stopped watching or buying much of this swill, but they still carry on unabated and in fact double down (they're even swallowing up Fox News). They have been wrong so often since Trump first started campaigning that you'd think enough people would be catching on to their act, but they still have an audience.

the problems in the media began years ago when those who worked in newspapers and in television news started to be the children of the extremely wealthy and the children of politicians. the Clintons moved to take control of the media shortly after the end of there presidency the best example of the Clintons moving to control the media is George Stephanopoulos becoming a political analyst for ABC then eventually becoming a chief anchor for ABC. if you look in the back ground of NBC CNN and CBS you will find that those calling the shots also have Clinton connections.

Way easier said than done. Take Arizona for example:

McCain had an opponent coming in strong during the primaries. Unfortunately he managed to smear her enough to wipe out her chances and the primary was no contest. In the general election he ran against an absolute rabid dim so he won because he was least objectionable.

This scenario describes the systemic problem. We are screwed either way. The best we could do was choose not to give the dims a chance for a senate majority.

We as voters are offered awful choices on both sides of the equation. Where the hell is the party of Goldwater and Reagan when we can't find a decent primary challenger? Why did the final choice in the general election come down to stay home or hold your nose and vote?

The whole republican establishment stinks. They want to perpetuate the ruling political class DC mentality and we are offered only our choice of suicide.
