Yea, though I think it's a double edged sword. He might be able to get away with some of it, but I think if he were level headed he wouldn't be able to survive scandals.

They're still apart of the press. So, this is no shock to me that they would stand with CNN on this. This is not a partisan issue, this is an attack on ALL press.

Conservative =/= evil They lie to and misinform their viewers. They actually are a terrible media outlet purely due to their inaccuracies and the propaganda they push. I can't think of a proper conservative outlet but maybe that's because conservative ideals just don't work in this day and age or at least the conservative party has lost its way entirely.

That's a totally subjective way to look at it. I don't agree with anything FOX News pushes or even watch them at all but I don't see them as evil. They just do what CNN does but in a mighty conservative manner. Trust me, the conservatives out there see CNN the same way we see FOX News. The question is, who is right and who is wrong? Are we right in saying FOX News is evil press even though their views cater to at least half of the US population? In many senses, Im criticizing my own bias here also. I would never trust anything coming out of FOX News because I know, even when they report the facts, they manage to spin it in such a manner that it fits in with their conservative agenda. CNN does something similar but I always give them more credibility over FOX News. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald 13,841 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Fox News is starting to backpedal their Trump support, or stop vocally supporting.. Rumors are swirling that Robert Mueller is about to send out a wave of indictments related to Russia that will directly affect Trump and his family, at LAST Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bt1 5,213 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 They are just pretending. They are quite good at this and CNN is stupid enough to be happy that the bullies are on their side this time. Yes, they are because they like to be called journalists, which they arent.

Using your media outlet to say "THOUSANDS OF ISIS SYMPATHIZING MIGRANTS ARE COMING UP HERE IN A CARAVAN WITH THEIR MEASLES AND SMALLPOX AND AIDS AND THEY'RE GOING TO INFECT US WITH DISEASE AND STEAL OUR THINGS AND KILL US AND VOTE (illegally) FOR THE DEMOCRATS!!!! EVERYONE GRAB AN AR-15 AND GET READY FOR A WAR!!!!" is propaganda to strike fear and paranoia in the hearts of conservative voters so they mobilize and vote Republican and it's so transparent seeing as they mentioned the caravan at least a dozen times a day, lied about it, and pushed GOP candidates and stroked Trump's...ego. After the election? I think they've mentioned it once since then And that's just one recent example. They built a career out of doing sh*t like this Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
