So you believe liberal people have been using the news like state run news in dictatorships? You cant be that fricking stupid.
ShortyRob seems to think that the left-leaning MSM is the same thing as a President-run news network. I'm no fan of the MSM, but those are not the same thing.

Nope I didn't say either one is good I just find the hysteria over it funny. Woohoo so now there will be two major Outlets that get their marching orders from one side. Only 20 more to go and they might catch up

You want to know the obvious difference since all of you want to be obtuse? The obvious difference is no one will think that Trump TV isn't biased in favor of trump. The name sort of gives it away. Trump TV isn't going to be masquerading trying to pretend that it's a beacon of impartiality
Even the average voter who doesn't pay a lot of attention can probably figure out that Trump TV is pro-trump. They might not be quite as astute when it comes to CNN MSNBC The Washington Post the New York Times the LA Times the Chicago Tribune ABC CBS NBC etc etc etc

I didn't watch it. I just know that if the last president had ObamaTV or something we'd have to shut down this board.
Obama had West Wing week on its own youtube channel if I remember correctly.

Your news has been skewed and hand fed to you from the Democratic Party since the 60s at the very least, and prior to FNC, there literally was NO alternative perspective presented than the one they all presented unanimously, from the left side of the aisle. It drove me up the wall from the moment in JR High that I began to pay close attention to what was going on in the world around me. I remember a time when just about the only voice we had was on AM radio in the form of Paul Harvey. An indoctrination such as this didn't just start the other day. It's been going on for some time. CNN was a one point even a break from it, if only because of Crossfire giving conservatives a voice. You have no idea how bad it was, too young to know any better, or were quite content because they were playing your tune.

Agreed. The MSM is worse. Calling it "Trump TV" is tacky (a theme for him), but it's bias is right there in the name. CNN and the like advertise as fair journalism and information to be trusted. That element of deception is devious and ethically and morally shameful.
He should have called it "Fireside TV."

The hyperbole about this is embarrassing
This a once a week recap on his face book page using campaign money not taxpayer money
Lara(erics wife) is running not trump himself
The "state run media" comparison is laughable

Uh... Obama didn't fricking create CNN, how about that difference? Even if your conspiracy theory is true, you can obviously see that, right?

So absolutely dead on. It was comical at times how you could channel flip and they would all be using the exact same language as a given Democrat. In the era BEFORE internet, they somehow, miraculously, all read each other's minds. #sarcasm
And out was universal. The only sort of conservative viewpoints came from smaller town newspapers.
Then. A couple of people to include Rush ended up on radio. And the left agreed like the world was coming to an end. Hell. They wanted him shut down. Many wanted the government to do the shutting down
Basically, the left WANTS state run television. As long as they run it.

The establishment, which controls the media (not the Democratic Party...and not the Republican Party), has you folks fighting amongst yourselves over left vs. right instead of banning together to fight the establishment.
Why you folks insist on playing into the establishment's hands on this is mind boggling.

Almost every news outlet has been bought by corporate conglomerates starting in the early 60's, so this bit about it being a liberal agenda is just bullshite.
The news has failed to show us the horrors of war during iraq, glossed over important information about bechtel, monsanto, dyncorp, and just refused to tell the American people about anything that might shake order. Its a mouthpiece of the industries that control us through the sock puppet that is our govt.
Sure most journalists are liberal minded but the people that write their checks simply care about distorting information that threatens sales or order while going with whatever gets them ratings. The news is mostly inaccurate because it feeds off of what it thinks we want to hear.
