More voters blame media than Trump for dividing the US

The irony is that the media reports the stuff the President says and does. So, @RocketsLegend, who is the true divider?

 

Since the majority think both divide the country, in our President ways of thinking, does this mean both are enemy of the people? A pissing contest on who is the bigger enemy of the people? NO! You are!

Congratulation, this is a huge win for ... the big boss.

 

Trump is dishonest as hell but you don't care. The truth is that plenty of people (and the majority of people from the link you posted) hold both Trump and the media responsible when it comes to being divisive yet we will never, ever hear any criticism from you when it comes to Trump, but you'll bash the media until the end of time. You should take a look in the mirror before whining about the biases of others.

 

You are correct. The media quotes the President verbatim.

 

Has trump's job as president been bad enough to warrant a total 180 degree in tone of coverage when compared to obama?

They could choose to cover the positive aspects of his presidency but they dont. That wasnt exactly the case with 44. I will admit obama was a media darling.

 

What about Fox news 180 degree turn?

i mean they are America's most watched need source.

 

surprised the interview with Jon Stewart hasn't attracted more attention

 

I'm sure no one has ever questioned the veracity of the...um...Washington Examiner as an...um...unbiased news source?

 

In Soviet Russia, mirror looks in you!

 

If you mean by media Fox, Breitbart, Daily Caller, etc - then you are 100% right!

 

Did Putin tell you to say that?

 

The idea that the 24 hour news cycle is harmful to the public good and discourse is not a conservative idea or liberal idea.

Both sides have prominent networks who do largely the same demonization of the otherside 24/7 365.

But by all means keep MSNBC on 24/7 365 in your home.

 

No, I prefer to get my news from blogs, talk radio and Facebook.

 

You get a gold star.

 

Look how often ESPN runs out of content and has to over cover silly stories. 24 hour news outlets are doing the same crap.

 

For dumbassery, all his propaganda is leftist bs.

 

No he is extremely divisive, the most polarizing President in our lifetime. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t have supporters, because he certainly does. He feasts on chaos and conflict.

 

I don't watch cable news but I can tell you something - what comes out of the right-wing sources - Fox, Breitbart, Daily Caller, etc - is outright propaganda.

To try to say "both sides are guilty of it" is a bit ridiculous. CNN isn't the truth - it's still corporate processed news for the masses that borderlines on entertainment. It's trash. But compared to Fox, it's outright award winning journalism. You want to read left-wing news? It's aint CNN brother, it's freak Mother Jones and Salon and the Huff Post. Read that crap and then you know the counter to Fox.

I read the failing NY Times and the Failing Washington Post, and gov't funded news NPR which was rated as the most unbiased news source in the entire country.

When you can start actually seeing the truth, I might respect more of what you post

 

Well considering this long-winded ramble addressed nothing I said and drew in a lot of things I never referenced, rest assured, I don’t respect anything you post.
