Can you imagine if Trump had a Monica Lewinsky type scandal? The internet would literally blow up into a million little pieces lol. Everyone at CNN would have a stroke or seizure.

Last I checked Bannon was a senior adviser to him. Stop buying into the nonsense narrative coming from this administration. They're playing too many of us.
Dude... I am not the one claiming to buy anything, you are. I am actually saying how trump is worthy of criticism and you are still treating me as a trumpetier, take off the blinders, you have bought a conspiracy that the REAL president is Bannon, that's not saying he has influence, it's a conspiracy theory that he is acting as president by proxy which is utterly unfounded nonsense. Tell me now how its Putin running the show, that sounds like another good conspiracy theory!

Mainstream liberal media is simply out to knock Trump no matter what he does. It seems to me that the role of media should attempt to report news, not stir up anti-presidential sentiments because of it's own biases.
Basically, there is plenty to knock trump on, but I feel at times they still feel the need to exaggerate the motives of some things, or just hyperventilate over stuff that ISN'T that big of the deal, to the point where regardless of Trump character they just seem shitty, dishonest and petty.
This is gold though, I can't resist such irony so close together lmao!
I for one reject the cynical conspiracy nonsense eminating from the thugs currently in power. Let's remember where this whole thing is coming from. Bannon.
I reject conspiracies because of a conspiracy I believe in hahahahahaha

sir82, Definitely social media driven, mainly Facebook and Twitter, but I think the media is still a part of the hsyteria.
Immigrant community on high alert, fearing Trump’s ‘deportation force’
Fear and panic have gripped America’s immigrant community as reports circulate that federal agents have become newly aggressive under President Trump, who campaigned for office with a vow to create a “deportation force.”http://www.laweekly.com/news/was-the-la-immigration-sweep-a-preview-of-whats-to-come-7932258
Was the L.A. Immigration Sweep a Preview of What's to Come?
If you can honestly believe the media plays not part in getting this insanity, you are delusional. Media is spreading widespread anxiety that is usually baseless or sensational instead of factual.

Azor you are taking it to an attack on Trump again when the OP is about the media. You started out there and drifted back into your opinions on Trump which we all have. Separate Trump from the media's behavior, has the media gotten more extreme with its BS? And is that excusable because it's your opinion his behavior should not be normalized? Do two wrongs make a right?

I have no problem with opinions. Also, I put up some recent facts that back up exactly what I am talking about when ICE basically had to tweet that the media is being misleading to the point of putting law enforcement in danger. Yes, it's just one sample, but it's super recent and super relevant. The links which DJS posted which I respect, were geared towards Trump himself being dishonest, I believe, and not anything to do with the integrity of the media which this OP is about no?
Are we talking about Trump ability to embellish or lie? Or the media being trust worthy?

But we can fact check rather easily to determine who is lying, but only if we get rid of our biases.
Sadly I now feel the need to fact check absolutely every bloody thing I see to an extreme degree. That is a good indicator how untrustworthy news media sources have become, and gain it's not even facts, the spin has become outrageous. That's not lying its something else. Fox news and even more extreme sources can have facts, but the headline and story is usually clearly trying to spin it in an extreme way.
Here is the thing with Trump, people have been aware for sometime the politicians of the establishment AND the media have been pissing on their leg. That has brought us to this, for good or bad, it has created the Trump era, where people don't care as much about his faults as his willingness to shit back on both of them. He's the bully hired to hit the other bullies, it is what it is now.

Them trying to spin his interaction with April Ryan is being played up as racist, I heard the audio clip on XM this morning (they were asserting its racist BTW), and I feel it's another stretch to try and nitpick every little iota of anything he does and spin it. I really don't believe he was being racist upon listening to the actual clip and judging for myself. This is the crap I can't stand. CNN claiming that Adel winning instead of Beyonce, SWEET LETS RACE BAIT THAT SHIT!!! It's really enough from them already. The media plays a bigger role in dividing this awesome country than just about anything else. They makes us believe women don't have rights, and we are institutionally racist, and on and on... enough!
