Our corrupt media

[Redfish]

I would like to understand why you on the left approve of our media being in the tank for one candidate and not actually practicing journalism. I would like to understand why you condone a media that is so biased that the truth and facts are what they decide they are.

I do get it that they are helping your candidate right now. But think about it, it might not always be that way. A state controlled media will destroy this country by indoctrination and lies.

Why do you think you are incapable of making your own decisions after hearing both sides equally? Why do you want the media telling you what to believe and what to think?

Please don't respond with partisan bullshit, this is a serious question.

The media is on their side. Thinking ahead to possible implications is not something most people do anymore. We are in the ME ME ME generation. Everyone thinks they need to Tweet or Facebook as if anyone really gives a fuck about their mundane daily lives. Instant gratification > all else.

Right wing media isn't biased?
I'll bet the media you consume is 98+ percent right wing media, where there are no discernible journalistic standards.

So please, stop pretending.

The point is his post which you ignored entirely and made it about him personally rather than opining on the actual topic.

The media sells a product. If there were none who consumed such a product, Economics 101: it wouldn't sell.

As a conservative, do you consume media from MSNBC, CNN, or other such liberal or mainstream media outlets? Do liberals consume media from FOX, Drudge, Breitbart, or other such conservative media outlets?

Do you go to Olive Garden when you want steak? Do you go to Taco Bell when you want bbq?

The media isn't swaying the electorate, the electorate isn't swaying the media, but they do influence each other in an eternal negative feedback loop.

The reason Trump is getting shat on by the "msm" is because it sells.

is Bannon on CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC? I never heard of the guy.

as to who is stupid. How stupid are Hillary supporters who continue to support a corrupt liar who constantly violated federal laws, who bribed the FBI and DOJ, and whose foundation is a front for laundering foreign money into the Clinton bank account.

Exactly. You have heard floridly psychotic statement like the NYT is unreliable because it has a liberal bias. And then you are stupid enough to believe that the NYT is no more reliable than Brietbart.

And that is mind numbingly stupid.

Only because currently the media is partisan left. At some future time it could be partisan right. My point is that a partisan media is bad for any country, no matter which side it is on.

Two things:

1. The majority doesn't like Trump

2. They majority doesn't care about good journalism.

While there may be some media outlets that are "in the tank" of various politicians, there is no credible evidence that major news networks are. The mere fact that any news outlet communicates information that differs with what anyone wants to believe is true does not make the organization "in the tank" of anyone. If there's to be any bias among the major news outlets, it's found in the degree of completeness and comprehensiveness of factual information provided. (FWIW, that's why I tend to prefer PBS Newshour. That network is given to presenting a far more complete news presentation -- as compared with editorial discussion -- of matters.)

It is also essential that one, when consuming content from a news organization, be cognizant of what is news and what is editorial commentary. As goes the news content delivered by major news networks, Fox, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and others, very little to none of it is biased one way or the other. As goes the editorial content, there is often bias, but then that's the whole point of delivering commentary on the news.
