LUHE: Yes, Sweedish media typically don't report the ethnicity of the criminals unless it is relevant to the story... you can think that is good or bad but it isn't exactly a media blackout of some forms of crime and you can find debate about immigrants in the Sweedish media if you go look.

What is your opinion of the news media?
by minimus into me they have an agenda and they really don't care about professional journalism.
most are untrustworthy and that's a shame.

Simon: Oh, "code". So what is being claimed here, exactly? That the Swedish media does not contain negative news stories about immigrants?

Zeb: Currently in Sweden it is against their code to report 'immigrants' for creating mayhem, arson rape in their once pristine cities.
Do you have a source that shows which part of Sweedish law makes it illegal to report immigrants?

Re. a biased press, yesterday we learned that ca. 1000 Russian operatives were spreading propaganda during the election.
...and that Donald Trump thinks it is the MAINSTREAM press which is the "enemy of the American people".
The mind boggles.

Berengaria: My thoughts exactly. Also worth noting that some details of the dossier have now been corroborated...

trolling the left is much more fun than the right because they go absolutely ballistic these days
Well, we on the left have it even easier, the right goes ballistic all on its own

Simon:
Defense of free speech is in my view linked to a defense of a free press; you can't have one without the other. It took about 1 month for Lenin to call the press the enemy of the people in 1917 and now here we have Trump doing the same. I think that is quite chilling.

Just a thought.
Trump has called several of the largest media outlets the "enemy of the American people". He has never said the same about Putin.

I don't want to outrage-post everything Trump says but he just made this statement about the free press:
"Enemy of the people" is a well-known phrase from history, it is a chekist catch-phrase.

At least Breitbart can give some people a clue as to why CNN and other news networks can be so biased in their reporting
That statement presupposes that it has been proven that CNN is "so biased".
Bannon is in the white house, what do we make of that?
In my opinion, not too much: we look at what Breitbart says and judge them based on that.
