Notice the difference in how the MSM covers Trump and Obama

Allegations are made against Trump about Russian collusion, and the MSM is all in, running stories on page 1 of their newspapers, or leading off their broadcasts with the story, while buried somewhere in the story is their disclaimer that no evidence exists of this allegation (eg the NY Times)
Trump alleges that Obama trapped his phone and every MSM story I've seen has the same angle, namely that there is no proof of this allegation. That's how the MSM covers the story. It is unproven.
See the difference?

don't listen to the MSM. if enough people did it, they'd lose their platform. They're all nut bags reading from the same Obama/Clinton script anyway... boring me at this point.

Trump can do no right and Obama can do no wrong.

The MSM is the opposition party.

About the ONLY thing I agree with Trump (and Bannon) so far is correctly identifying the MSM as the enemy.
This is true. They have viewed anyone not like them as the enemy for decades. Now someone is fighting back and they are completely lost in how to handle it.

Every single intelligence agency agreed there was tampering by Russia. It's still being investigated, apparently. It is a real thing.
Meanwhile, Trump throws out something that, if you're being honest, and it was a thread started on this board, you would have whacked yourself. No link, no proof, nothing to back it up. It wouldn't even pass muster on the poli board.

That's more accurate.

No. There is a difference between Russia trying to influence people and Trump's people actively working with the Russians.
The media is all too eager to connect Trump and his people to the Russians.
If Fox News accused Obama of being connected to the Russians the rest of the media would be trying to defend Obama at all costs and running stories about how the allegations are BS.

They like Obama. What can you say?
If you like someone you're going to treat them favorably. That's just human nature.
Even Obama's political opponents would have to admit that outside of policy he's a relatively inoffensive person.

All lead by Obama appointees. And the only way we know this "fact" is from a report Clapper wrote claiming it. He offered no evidence, just a "trust me."
And they never claimed Russia "tampered" with the election. They claimed they hacked the DNC and Podesta's e-mails. This type of shite happens every day and it doesn't take Russian operatives to pull off an e-mail hack.

When you act crazy, people treat you like you're crazy

Many are advocates and activists for the Democratic party, thus no longer free press.

Every single intelligence agent appointed by Obama agreed there was tampering by Russia.
And very few federal employees in any capacity are properly called "agents." It's way overused.

They are supposed to put human nature aside for the sake of integrity. That's their job and what separates them from any a-hole with a blog.
These journalists have lost their integrity and are no different from partisan bloggers.

Well Trump has made it easy for them. He's doing it to himself.

But, yes, of course the MSM is biased. I don't think this has been debatable for a pretty good while now.
