The Trump Hate By 99.9% Of The Media Is Scariest Thing About Race:

[dissolved]

This baffles me and should concern everyone.

The media is supposed to offer fair and balanced perspectives - particularly when Trump is one of the major candidates and has significant support to the extent he might actually win.

How is it that no major news network/site demonstrates any balanced reporting on Trump's stances? Clearly there is some validity to many of the issues he is campaigning about and there is a large segment of the population that knows this!

There's no way to not conclude that the collective media is being driven by underhanded, secretive agendas.

I've never seen anything like this in over 40 years of being alive. And again, this is the most alarming aspect of this whole presidential election IMO.

Or maybe Trump just has really bad and stupid ideas, and a large segment of the population is just dumb.

Want to guess which is more likely? I can prove a large segment is stupid, have any evidence of your claims other than " think of the scariness"?

Sure, we have a corporate media that is threatened by Trump's isolationist policies.

I offer profit motive as evidence of the media having an agenda.

I mean FFS's, I have a thread up right now that says Obama was complicit in a chemical weapon attack, and that the media has a blackout on Seymore Hersh, as they did for Sibel Edmonds.

Their is a media conspiracy today. You have to be willfully ignorant to not see it.

I am not seeing how his policies would prevent the media from making a profit. Other than when he said it should be illegal to criticize him, but that seems more like a stupid comment, which supports my theory.

Your opinion is a product of the way the media is covering, portraying Trump so it doesn't surprise me. It also doesnt reflect democracy nor the responsibility of the media to report in a non-biased manner.

LOL, the media is not CNN guy. The media is Disney, Viacom, Time Warner, ect.

FYI, these companies are not limited to media. They have their hands in everything from facial recognition software, to manufacturing.

I really doubt this is accurate. Things of this matter arent typically normally distributed

Agreed.

The media reports the dumb thing Trump says. Their analysts weigh in on dumb things Trump says.

I see no problem with it.

Have you considered the possibility that Trump is just that awful and deserves all the negative coverage he gets?

Well you are wrong. IQ has a universally accepted standard deviation of 15 points, with a normal distribution. Sorry.

But when that's ALL they do (as in practically 100%), there's a problem. Every picture, every sound-bite, every good point he makes is twisted into something vile. THAT is beyond disturbing when in fact most of his stances are actually reasonable if not good for the USA. Even if a person disagrees with that last sentence, there is zero representation of what good things his supporters are getting behind.

Pretty much this. The media discusses relevant current events. Donald Trump is relevant and current. It doesn't mean they have to agree with him.

Hell, CNN just aired W. Kamau Bell's new show where he visits with KKK members and even sits in on a cross burning. He openly disagreed with their views. Should that be "scary" because someone on a media channel opposed someone's point of view?

 

[uncommon]

trump has befreinded people on most major mainstream outlets.

morning joe, hannity, orielly, don lemon ect.

if they are established anchors they tend to have an incentive to play ball and get him on their show, if they are less established they tend to "fight" for attention.

even megyn kelly is starting to come around

Is that what the walking whore's of a billboard at CNN were doing when they were pimping Beyonce's album all day?

I guess when Yahoo feeds you a story about McDonald's secret menu, it is just covering what is relevant?

That is not true. Every channel I've seen (even MSNBC) has brought on Trump supporters to defend his views. You may feel as if Trump's views are right, but the majority of people do not, including those that work on news stations.

That's the flavor of the day. The media has always done that. Would you rather them just have the "Trump's stupid quote of the day" for the next 24 hours?

In your opinion should a person have a certain IQ to be eligible to vote? Ivy Leaguers only?

I think stupid people have just as much of a right to vote as anyone else. That does not mean that candidates saying stupid things should be treated like their positions hold equal merit.

I disagree that the media was always this way. I am 36, and I remember when it wasn't.

Media became commercials when DVR's came into play.

Edit: I believe a dangerous precedent was set when content was dictated by corporate advertising dollars.
