WHAT MEDIA BIAS? USA Today Headline Asks: “If Donald Trump Wins, What Country Would You Flee to?”
Gateway Pundit ^ | September 16, 2015 | Jim Hoft

It’s hard to imagine a national news outlet like USA Today asking this question about Obama in 2008, isn’t it? That’s because it never would have happened. Even today, substitute Trump’s name with Hillary in the headline below and you’ll hear cries of sexism from the left.

Yet somehow, this is acceptable…

If Donald Trump wins, what country would you flee to?

This might be one solution to the nation’s immigration problem: Donald Trump haters on Twitter say they will flee the country if he becomes president.

In our favorite social media analysis so far this year, the digital analytics firm Luminoso scoured 4.5 million Trump-related tweets from Aug. 7 through Sept. 9 and found about 4% of them were people promising to leave the country if Trump wins the White House.

Here are the top destinations in those 200,000 “intent to move” tweets:

Mexico: 75,000 General: 69,000 (“I’m moving if Trump is elected” but no location specified) Canada: 25,000 United Kingdom: 11,000 Australia: 6,000 Alaska: 5,800 France: 2,000 Hawaii: 1,500 Jamaica: 1,200 Ireland: 1,100 Sweden: 1,000 Brazil: 1,000 Certainly the folks moving to Hawaii and Alaska may be surprised to arrive and discover that Trump is still their president because those places are actually part of the United States.

Here’s a screen capture in case USA Today decides to delete this:

Our media is as corrupt as the Democratic Party and is working in collusion with them.

No wonder we don't hear the truth. Maybe they should just call it all "The Government News".

And we think the citizens of North Korea are brainwashed. We actually are led to believe we hear the real facts!

IF YOU HAD A HUNCH THE NEWS SYSTEM WAS SOMEWHAT RIGGED AND YOU COULDN'T PUT YOUR FINGER ON IT, THIS MIGHT HELP YOU SOLVE THE PUZZLE:

ABC News executive producer Ian Cameron is married to Susan Rice, National Security Adviser.

CBS President David Rhodes is the brother of Ben Rhodes, Obama's Deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications.

ABC News correspondent Claire Shipman is married to former Whitehouse Press Secretary Jay Carney.

ABC News and Univision reporter Matthew Jaffe is married to Katie Hogan, Obama's Deputy Press Secretary.

ABC President Ben Sherwood is the brother of Obama's Special Adviser Elizabeth Sherwood.

CNN President Virginia Moseley is married to former Hillary Clinton's Deputy Secretary Tom Nides.

And now you know why it is no surprise the media usually goes very easy on this ADMINISTRATIONS many errors....

Ya think there might be a little bias in the news?

(the preceding was found in my inbox recently. We all knew most of this, but it helps to have it all compiled)

Yeah, needs a revised headline. Illegals: If Trump wins, what country are you fleeing to?

USA Today, about 15 years past its time. Shut it down.
