An article to print out and show to journalists whenever they laughably claim that the news media has no bias.

Koppel has usually been one of the more balanced observers and commentators of events. Even Rush Limbaugh once remarked that to call Koppel “a liberal” wasn’t being really fair to the guy.

After reading the piece I have to ponder that WOW! Liberals like Ted sure are thick headed.

I mean Gawd, they still couch things as maybe? How much proof do they need?

[ Ted Koppel: Trump’s ‘Not Mistaken’ That Liberal Media Are Blatantly ‘Out to Get Him’ ]

Yes. Yes they are.

But don’t tell the liberals. They call it “great reporting” with “journalistic integrity”.

I saw some clip of Brian Williams (on Hannity’s excerpt I think).

I see Brian Williams is still a stinking rat. (no offense to stinking rats intended).

Not that I expected him to change.

The Mainstream Media consists of PATHOLOGICAL LIARS trying to maintain their position of INDOCTRINATING the reading and viewing public with their failed MARXIST/LEFTIST IDEOLOGY.

They produce their FAKE NEWS while pretending to be objective and unbiased. They are far from objective and unbiased ... they are simply an extension and arm of the Marxists/Leftists Democrats. They are out to DESTROY AMERICA and anyone who puts AMERICA FIRST.

Ted's a fellow Syracuse alum. He has come back to the university several times to speak to journalism majors. They need to listen to him.

I’ll give Koppel credit for this, but I still remember several years ago when he spent an entire two hours berating a group of white people who had left Detroit for the suburbs. For 2 hours he called them all racists and held them personally responsible for the mess that Detroit is in. This was coming from a man who lives in a gated community outside DC that is 97 percent white, and only about .02 percent black.

from the article:

“...the notion that most of us look upon Donald Trump as being an absolute fiasco, he’s not mistaken in that perception...”

“That’s the kind of language that’s used by people who genuinely believe, and I rather suspect with some justification, that Donald Trump is bad for the United States...”

It sounds like he is including himself in the same group of Trump haters that he is criticizing.

he isn’t an even handed journalist

He is an ass who is proud of the attacks and diminishment of Trump and trump supporters.

Conservatives are so desperate to be liked that they take crumbs like this to justify their viewpoint.

in reality, conservatives have an excellent and realistic viewpoint and it needs no bolstering by leftists lapdogs.

I do not think the media or the people who follow the MSM even bother to defend themselves against claims of bias anymore. The agenda is clear. We do not really need a Ted Koppel to tell us this. If you need a Ted Koppel to sway you then youre just being ignorant. The media is heart and soul of the Democratic propaganda machine.

Many years ago, Koppel gave the graduation speech at Duke University. It was in the football stadium... a large graduation.... He was on regular TV at the time and I expected “one of those” speeches. But he gave the most conservative speech I’ve heard. I was so surprised and it was a very good speech. I wanted a copy.. it was that good.

So I never found out if he was the guy on the news or the guy who gave that speech.

Thank you, Captain Obvious. The liberal media would never have been a friend to Trump under the best of circumstances. But there's a war on between the President and the media and both sides are out to win it.
