The mainstream media is actively engaging in warfare against the American public.

We need a foreign news agency to replace all the “Fake News” losers we are forced to listen to. The Brits seem more truthful.

The MSM has gone psychotic. They’re irrational. And getting worse.

No doubt he msm-Dec has set the bar high.
although,I have a feeling they can out do 2017.
They could hire obaama to be a host on CNN?
They could show clips elementary students reading their poems about how much Trump scares them?
They could have an illegal give the weather report broken english?

Hubs gets coffee every AM at McDonald’s after dropping me off at work. The restaurant TV is always on CNN and the lead story for days — five days, he counted — was “Trump said a bad word.”

That apparently meant more to CNN than fires, floods, natural disasters, economic improvements ... anything.

I don’t even know why they’re still referred to as “media”. They are clearly the public attack wing on the democrat party and global elitists. They have no interest in reporting what’s going on to America. They are involved in doing their part in taking out a President elected by the American people.

I don’t know what the word for it is, but it sure isn’t media.

Never under estimate how low the msn-dnc can go.

The militant arm of the Democrats used to be the KKK, now it’s the media.

A cornerstone of a truly free society is the presence of a vigilant news media

Vigilant media a cornerstone? I question that premise. Although news reporting is an essential element of a free society, vigilant is not the quality I most want in reporting. Honest, factual, fair, evenhanded, unbiased to the extent it is possible for humans to be unbiased...all these are qualities that matter to me. We have none of those qualities in our media these days. I would argue that we don't even have vigilance.

The media doesn’t report the news. They’re tabloid gossip and propaganda.

I don’t even read their clickbait crap anymore, I know it’s fake. Yesterday there was a headline about Trump wanting to abort Tiffany - she may have been an unexpected pregnancy, I don’t know, I refused to read an article w such a headline, and you’ll never get me to believe that of him.

Citizens need to be vigilant. Media needs to be independent. As long as media is doing what it's supposed to be doing, then citizens will be informed and be able to do what they need to do according to their rights as citizens.

We don't have media "bias" we have media hyper-partisanship and they are a threat to a free republic.
