Tonight, I decided to watch ABC news with David Muir. Normally, he is pretty good with non-political stories, so I watch fairly regularly.

I was absolutely sickened with how they covered the tax cut story. It was the most blatantly negative, biased thing I have ever watched. Repeatedly, they rolled out the talking points... Favors the wealthy, how will you pay for it, will destroy the debt, etc.

Nothing at all about the 87% of middle and lower income people who will pay less.

Nothing about what the corporate tax cut will do to the economy.

Nothing at all about how a large segment of wealthy people will absolutely pay more.

Also, where the frick were they while policy after policy of Obama's increased the debt, without a single question of it?

And, the gem of all....their WH press pool reporter REPEATLDLY grilling Spicer and Mnunchin as to whether they could GAURANTEE no middle class person would pay more. Actually, they continued to belligerently insist on a guarantee.

Where the frick was that question when Obama said everyone could keep their doctor under the ACA. Where the frick was that question when Obama said premiums would decrease under the ACA. You can't find one MSM person asking for guarantees during that time. Yet now, they want guarantees under something still being developed.

I've tried to resist the mantra of how biased the media is. After tonight, no more. They can all rot in hell for what their blatant bias is doing to this country.

It's the same every night, remember though, the MSM has been irrelevant since Nov 2016. If they had any relevancy then Trump would have lost by 20+ points

Muir is NOTHING but a POS puppet. On election night, as soon as the tide turned in favor of Trump, all he could say was "Uneducated whites have elected Trump."

Funny, but nobody EVER said that uneducated blacks elected Obama. I guess that was okay.

Martha Raddatz was practically crying once reality set in. Of course, she started to shift blame to the vile white males.

"The white, working class men that I spoke with after that Hollywood Access tape was released...didn't care. I mean, really didn't care."

At the end of the day, the Republicans in Congress have to pass this plan, or a reasonable version of it.

No amount of media bias will be able to cover up the positive impact that it will have on the economy and the majority of Americans.

The old adage remains true....most people vote with their pocketbooks.

Trump can pull out Reagan's line....Are you better off today than you were 4 years ago.

I can't comment on your review of this ABC product because I don't consume their products.

First time other than a few check-ins now and again that I watched it...in probably 18 months.

As we know, they never bias their disappointment to me.

Maybe because it's not a good plan and will add trillions to our deficit? You Trumptards have to stop blindly accepting the shite you're being fed
