Id say Fox New is 50/50. Even during Obama's last term with all the Benghazi stuff, Obama Care, Iran, etc., they were constantly bitching about his administration. Even at their peak, they weren't within light years of how vile, pathetic, and corrupt as the Anti Trump Fake News Media Machine.

Coach, your post sounds almost hysterically panicked in it's tone. Understandable considering the positive state of the country, and world affairs. Let me take a stab at answering your curiously naive question.

Now in response to your question: There is a fringe element on the right that believes every righ wing conspiracy, and at their heart are many racists. Similarly however, their is a fringe element on the left that believe every leftist conspiracy as well, and many are also racist. Now if you are so biased that you believe only white people can be racist, then this is a pointless dialogue.
As a regular Fox viewer I do not take everything reported as gospel. There are some Fox personalities that I find annoying for their disingenuous right wing bias. This might shock you to find out but Fox has left wing personalities as well. Some of them I even like. Not for their views mind you, but because they present their views passionately, without being condescending. I watch Fox not because they tell me what I want to hear, but because they are the closest to telling you both sides of an issue. ABC, CBS, MSNBC, and of course CNN are nowhere near balanced in their coverage of the issues.
This is not just an opinion. I'm sure you have seen the studies that prove these networks are biased. In addition to this there is plenty of documentation of the fact that most journalists, and writers are also in fact liberal and left leaning. So perhaps while calling it a vast left-wing conspiracy is a bit strong, there is a clear and documented left leaning slant in the media. This of course is also the case overseas, but it is exacerbated by the presidents nationalist stance on the world stage.

I think you are stereotyping conservatives and Republicans in general with your assertion that we all are zombie followers of the 5 news outfits you mention. Honestly I don't know which you are referring to. I get my news by first reading the Advocate, then Fox News website, CNN, and if time permits, the Washington Post and Wallstreet Journal. I also read a lot of news from different news aggregators on Twitter like Drudge Report which half the time is frustrating in its liberal reports so I would have to think it is fairly balanced. I think the vast number of Republicans have never even heard of Brietbart. I for one don't care for it. So in conclusion, I think it's fair to say only extremists believe the things you believe we all do. You should spend some time watching Fox it seems.

I believe that the whole Russian Investigation was noting more than a setup. Over a year now and no evidence against Trump on Russia or any other subject they are trying to find.

I believe the media takes their talking points from their sources which plants information they want leaked.

If you cannot see the 180deg coverage of Trump vs Obama/Clinton, then you are too dumb to worry about.

Everything the MSM did wrt Obama admin was to hide his incompetence, divisiveness, and malfeasance, while their coverage of trump is to challenge, 'fact check,' and theorize about every news item.

Positive developments under Trump are basically hidden - merely mentioned when absolutely required and then spin to undercut either the reason for the good news, or to immediately identify any group or special interest who is dissatisfied with it.

Presenting facts as if you were impartial is a fools errand - you would just ignore them. You are making the assertion here - so perhaps you should present something to back up your premise = prove to us that the MSM is fair and neutral by comparing their treatment of Obama wrt to Bush/Trump.

I hope that you're not really a head coach. You've got no business being around kids. You're as dumb as a bag of shite. Stop watching MSM.

Please confirm if this is what you believe: 100's,nearly 1000's, of news agencies both domestic and foreign are currently involved in a conspiracy/smear campaign against the best president ever. Also, inversely, the ONLY news organization that is reporting the "truth" is the one that happens to be the only source promoting this unbelievable conspiracy. (For the sake of convenience, lets just just lump FOX, Breitbart, and all those far-right groups together as one) So just to summarize, about 5 far right news organizations are the only one telling the truth, while 100s of previously legit agencies (not including admitted liberal agencies) are involved in historic conspiracy. Is that what you believe? And if so, can you only prove this with said far-right conservative news sources?


You did a great job laying out the Enemedia's unstated goal, destroy Trump at any cost.

Watch the main news channels for 30 minutes each (excluding Fox News) and it literally seems like the same clowns crafted the headlines and talking points for every leftist news outlet and +90% of their tripe is negative Trump coverage.

Are we talking about the same thousands of media Outlets that reported that Hillary Clinton was going to handily defeat Trump

That reported that Saddam Hussein was stockpiling weapons of mass destruction

That told me how much my health insurance premium was going to go down on an annual basis under Obamacare

That told me Bruce Jenner was the woman of the year


That Trump was leading us into war with North Korea

That the economy would tank when Trump took office

Forgive me but I don't believe much of anything the
" mainstream media " has to say these days

The mainstream media spent more time covering Trump having two scoops of ice cream then they did covering Lois Lerner sicking the IRS on political opposition groups.

A skycreamer saying.. NBC is pretty balanced is the same thing as a Trumpkin saying Fox is pretty balanced.

There is no way in hell anyone actually believes Hannity is unbiased.
