He also didn't seem to realize that the term "MSM" includes both right and left leaning sources. It was just a straw man post worth ignoring.

She's 100% right. Its all obvious propaganda. This is why so many people are turning to alternative media sources.
They pretty much don't exist, but Bloomberg would be the most unbiased source I use.Honest question. What news source do you like that provides unbiased fact-based news without any political leanings?
Is MSM and "The media" the same thing? If not, then your post failed.
She's absolutely right? Complain about MSNBC, NY Times, CNN, Washington Post? Fox News is the biggest joke in tv Journalism and Fox News viewers are the least informed news consumers, hell only 43% of Republicans believe in evolution.she's absolutely right.
I except the Left to viciously attack her, because they have little to no scruples.

In common usage, the two terms are equivalent. Spend more time around American English speakers?Is MSM and "The media" the same thing? If not, then your post failed.
The news media has been destroying itself over the past 20 years, and just like some cancers, we've not detected it until its too late.
An analogy I like to use to describe this country is HVAC.
Back in the day if you needed an AC repairman, they would come over and fix your AC, because that was what they were trained to do.
Now they're trained on how to milk the consumer.
Its the same thing with everything these days. Zero honesty and integrity. Its all about money.
Journalists aren't necessarily taught how to deceive the reader/viewer in school (anybody have any idea how many of our journalists even get degrees in journalism these days?), but very few seem to have any real journalistic integrity these days. Its seems as if their editors have trained them to milk the consumer rather than do the job they are needed to perform.
No, "Mainstream Media" refers to traditional media sources such as NBC, CBS, Fox if we're talking broadcast, it will also refer to major cable news networks like CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, CNBC, etc. Whereas "The Media" refers to MSM, and additional outlets of the media that aren't even "news" sources, local news outlets, bloggers, and all other non-mainstream sources.In common usage, the two terms are equivalent.

It's more than just bias. Most "journalists" are just lefty political activists.
For the most part the well known Jewish Americans and Organizations are only leftist when it comes to advancing progressive ideals in White gentile society, they are very ethnonationalist / rightwing when it comes to Israel.
Yes most members are liberal, yes most vote Democrat but what matters most are ratings and clicks, that's why when Trump first announced for President he was basically given a free ride. He was good for ratings and clicks.I would say exactly the opposite, hardly any genuinely left wing people are employed in the mainstream media. A lot of people with liberal views on certain subjects are employed these people generally also tend to support the current economic status quo and indeed foreign policy.
The link between "left wing" and "liberial" is I think not just a leftover of the cold war but actually something all sides of the media promote, on the conservative side it equates the two meaning that someone who might disagree with a liberial view will be led into disagreeing with economic ones, on the liberial side these people wish to give themselves the appearance of being economically progressive when in reality their nothing of the sort.
I mean look at the stance of the likes of CNN, NBS, NYT etc on someone like Bernie Sanders, none of them were very positive about him preferring Hilary.

As for preferring Hillary I think you are remembering a history that never occurred. the media, Hillary or the Republicans never laid a finger on Bernie Sanders. While he was given a pass Hillary's email server was being covered like a 21st century Watergate to the exclusion of almost everything else.
It's the same argument as 'everyone is doing it' when someone gets caught juicing. She fucked up reporting so bad, CBS worst scandal in about a decade, that they asked her to take leave. They had multiple chances to vet the Benghazi source and it was already known he lied to his employer. He also had a book deal with someone under CBS parent company. She was also making speeches advocating for government to take action against Al Qaeda for the attack, when they weren't responsible and she was still reporting on it.That aside, do you disagree with what she's saying in the OP?
