Why do everyone on this board, hate the main stream media? CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, Washington Post. These institutions are decades old. CNN used to have Republican tilt and is headquartered in Atlanata , Georgia. Just because they are anti-Trump it does not mean that all they say is fabricated lies. In fact most of it is factually true.

Also what endears Trump to you all? Is it the race-baiting (creates division and spews hatred), the immigrant-hating (illegal immigration should be stopped but legal immigration of the educated might be good for the economy) , anti-free trade (do I have to explain this). Because all these things are counter productive to our economy in the long run.

Oh by the way, the MSM hates Trump because his press secretary handed them a declaration of war in the administration's first press conference.

Who takes on the press, unprovoked?

Actually, that's exactly why a lot of their news is fake, false or fabricated.

Shiny hook, but screw it.

The MSM has been in the tank for the Left for a long time now. Most people are awakened to what the establishment is about and think it’s wrong and not in our country’s best interest.

The middle class has been bent over a barrel for the last 2 decades.

Trump is not the establishment. We took a chance on him and he’s doing all he can to deliver on his campaign promises. It’s not racist. It’s in line with the Monroe Doctrine and preserving our still very young country.

Because they are the guardians of acceptable political thought and engage in self-censorship of stories or issues that challenge American political orthodoxies, while simultaneously waxing poetic about their adversarial relationship with the powerful, which is an outright lie. True adversarial figures and journalists, people like Assange, Greenwald, Poitras and Snowden, have all faced the wrath of the political establishment and the mainstream media for the crime of bringing truth directly to the American people. The American mainstream media is an absolute farce.
