re: To what do you attribute the overwhelming negative media coverage towards Trump?

Well when well over 90% of the press falls under one particular ideology, they are going to be overwhelmingly negative when someone who does not follow their ideology sits in the oval office.

It's really not all that surprising. What is surprising and sad is that so much of the populace still thinks the press is objective or "neutral" in its coverage. Just look at the proggies on this board and their reaction.
