I had to take my wife to the emergency room at the military hospital at the Air Force base the other day. While waiting to be seen, I was forced to watch MSNBC. I've never seen any reporting to damned skewed to the left as much as that. I wanted to give up my lunch.
Fond of facts yes and feelings not so muchSo called fake news is really emotionally driven innuendo incorrectly presented as fact
Very difficult nowadays to get the under 40 crowd to recognize that feelings are Not facts
Is everything "emotionally driven"? You seem quite fond of that phrase.
All the networks do is take the "approved" AP propaganda and apply their own little spin to it.
FOX, too.

Lol, fox news produces fake crap...
Cnn, Abc, cbs and nbc produce real news that promotes reality...Something liberterians hate.
This is what you call balanced?
A special kind of a moron... CNN even referred Clinton as their candidate on their election coverage.
What don't you post a link to that, then?
Again, cable channels are held to different FCC rules than networks. And websites can say anything they want with practically 100% impunity, especially if they have editorial contributors as third party to their site. They waive all responsibility, if you read the fine print.

Are you now trying to say that... CNN's website is... fake?
No, no, no, it's not fake, it's FAKE NEWS.

That's not what I said at all. You are spinning what I said, which means you're a hypocrite.
"biased" news. And this is what most Americans now think of when it comes to the MSM.
Biased news.
Now most of you biased MSM defenders say well what about Fox? Yes the present a "biased" news also.
But instead of "biased" left or Democrat or progressive, Fox presents BALANCED news that just appears
because it is "balanced" biased!
So rather then let the FACTS speak for themselves, i.e. the MSM does not produce fake news but biased news, I will open this dialogue with intelligent open minded people and prove me wrong, i.e. that the MSM present the news in a biased left leaning democrat favoring manner.
To set the tone for this I ask you open minded people (of which there are truly a small number for sure)
to honestly assess the perceptions of Americans when it comes to the MSM.
According to Gallup, only 32% of Americans still believe the lies, half-truths, and shameless propaganda being offered by the old media:
Now mind you this is saying only 32% of Americans think the MSM is to be believed.
It's not that the MSM is producing "fake news"... again... it is HOW they present it is a biased fashion.
Let's look at the latest example of how the MSM biases the news...
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer came under fire Tuesday after saying that Adolf Hitler “didn’t even sink to using chemical weapons” against his own people like Syrian strongman Bashar Al-Assad. Spicer, speaking from the White House podium at the daily press briefing, said that Hitler, whom he called “despicable,” did not use “the gas on his own people the same way Assad used them.”
Now, if you parse Spicer’s statement carefully enough, there’s both a strictly literally defensible position and a grain of general truth there.
It’s true that chemical weapons were banned by common agreement after World War I. It’s true that the combatants in World War II, Nazi Germany included, generally adhered to that ban.
It’s true that large-scale chemical attacks on civilian targets have been been deployed freely by the Assad regime, in ways that have no direct parallel even in the cornucopia of atrocities that was the Second World War in Europe.
Spicer, after several botched efforts to clean up this wholly unnecessary rhetorical mess (some of which came off as if Spicer was suggesting that German Jews were not Hitler’s “own people”), apologized.
Sean Spicer Steps in a Hitler Mess
But what did the MSM ABC,CBS,NBC lead with their MAIN story on Tuesday 4/11/17?
In spite of more dramatic events that occurred they all led off their newscast like this:
WHY was this a "firestorm"???? Why did these MSM people insist Spicer needed to resign?
Again.... read the above closer and you will see why most of us don't believe the MSM!

Washington Post articles about it: 12
George Soros is a hedge fund billionaire who has spent millions encouraging mass immigration to the US. He is also a major force behind the migrant crisis in Europe. He has given $25 million dollars to the Hillary Clinton campaign, and Hillary Clinton has already promised to increase the flow of Middle East "refugees" if elected.

Could you post an example of Fox fake news?Lol, fox news produces fake crap...
Cnn, Abc, cbs and nbc produce real news that promotes reality...Something liberterians hate.
I can give you two examples, and both CNN as well as FOX made the same mistake both times.
First one was when the SC ruled that the ACA was constitutional. FOX and CNN only read the first page and thought that the SC had ruled against it. MSNBC was the only channel at the time that bothered to read the whole thing, and shortly after CNN and FOX said it was struck down, MSNBC reported that it had been upheld.
Second example is when the Boston Marathon bombers were being chased. Again, both CNN and FOX reported that it was done by Muslim terrorists and that they had been captured and killed, when in fact they weren't caught for another day.
That was unintentional, trying to break the story first...
.
I'd rather get the story slow and accurate rather than first and wrong.
All the networks do is take the "approved" AP propaganda and apply their own little spin to it.
FOX, too.
Fake News: Here’s an Example from AP - NewsHawk Network <<Have tinfoil hat ready.
Network television is simply 22 minutes of headlines. They do not go into depth on any story. But they closely align with AP and Reuters, too. They are not allowed to opine and they don't. Because if they do they can be sued.
Where are your links? I believe you are making that up. Honest people share where they get their sources so others can validate.Could you post an example of Fox fake news?Lol, fox news produces fake crap...

Several surveys have said that FOX only gets it right 60 percent of the time.
As far as what do I consider reliable news? Well, there is a new news channel out there and they air on HBO (yeah, I know, pay cable, but what ya gonna do). It's called VICE News, and they air every night at 6:30 CST on HBO, M through Thurs, with a VICE in depth special on 2 subjects on Fridays. I like them because it's just the facts, and there appears to be zero bias in their reporting.
Same reason I trust BBC news. Their reporters throw little to zero of their own opinion in the story.
The surveys use loaded questions.
And I am with the OP when I think of fake news I think of the tabloids, the main stream media does not intentionally do fake news it's biased, it only tells us half the story sometimes and leaves out key facts that would go against their narrative.
It's up to the public to research more what you read or heard and don't take them for their word.
.
That is intentional misleading of the citizenry. Its propaganda, which makes it fake ... on purpose.
To me it's just being biased with holding all the facts...
Not out right fake, we all do it and not most will admit it.
Fake news story's are like from the old onion or again the tabloids were a quarter are real mixed in with totally fake so you buy it and read it.
Yes, most of the mainstream media is clearly biased to the Left, it no longer makes much of an effort to hide it, and it's nice to see someone who understands the distinction between "biased" news and "fake" news.And this is what most Americans now think of when it comes to the MSM. Biased news.
