NEW YORK (AP) — It’s been true for some time that Republicans are generally more hostile to the news media than Democrats, but a study released Thursday found that’s much more the case for supporters of President Donald Trump.

The Pew Research Center study looks at viewpoints on the ethical standards of journalists and whether they act in the best interests of the public.

Given the hostility of the MSM toward Republicans and Trump supporters, what do they expect? Rose petals?

My point was very specific.

When AP decided to propagandize in favor of illegal immigrants that was a direct declaration of war against the American nation and its citizens—because without borders there is no country.

I admit I will be of a hostile mood to any journalist who lies to me to further their own ideology either directly or through omission of relevant knowledge.

I admit I will react in a hostile manner to any journalist who assists others that are attempting to take away my Constitutional rights.

I will show contempt and hostility to any journalist that believes it is their right to tell me how to live my life.

I could go on for a while, but I think I’ve gotten my point across.

Oh, Trump has nothing to do with my attitude toward the press. I have watched them destroy people for decades.

We were media skeptics long before we were Trump supporters. Republicans were always guilty in the press before due process was was allowed to make a determination of guilt or innocence. The reverse was true for Democrats.

Journalists do not consider him to be a journalist, so he doesn’t apply. But you are correct, we attribute more credence to what he says than we do “journalists”. 8>)

I will never forget the reporter who stated “ Americans had a temper tantrum “ when Republicans won control of the House Of Representatives.

This story might have made sense 5 years ago.

Everyone knows exactly why republicans despise the news media. This story is obsolete. They are trying to feign ignorance, which for the media is not at all hard to do.

They seem to have overlooked that one - what a surprise!

“The ones who are most engaged with the news or politics are the ones who tend to be the most polarized,” Gottfried said.

Well, yes. That includes journalists, who have become extremely polarized, 90% toward the Democrats. The AP doesn't seem to consider that worth exploring for some reason. Wonder why not?

Peter Jennings was the man who said that. A Canadian who was an ABC anchor who did not live to see the gooey, magma-hot meltdown that his beloved Leftists experienced WHEN TRUMP BEAT CRUSHED ALL COMERS!
