Former NY Times editor rips Trump coverage as biased

I always knew you were one of Trump's very fine people.

Funny thing about that. Trump did say both sides and he also stated that he was not referring to Neo nazis. I guess when you don't actually watch the full video and rely on opinion pieces being passed off as news, you remain a low information useful idiot stuck in an echo chamber. I'm sure you mean well when paving that road.

Uhhh... One side was neo-nazis. When you find yourself marching and chanting along with 200 neo-nazis and white supremacists you aren't a very fine person. You're just another nazi.

I do think there’s very noticible differences in the coverage of Barry vs Trump and the former was given passes on things that the latter wouldn’t be (it’d just get drowned in the noise anywhom), but the frothing at the mouth anti-media paranoia on the right is not only incredibly annoying but potentially threatening to one of the pillars of our democracy.

What I said went right over your head, didn't it?
On Twitter, Trump is his own media. And that media is persistently negative coverage of himself. "Losers!" "Haters!" "Fake news!" "Enemies of the People!"
The majority of the American People don't find any appeal in the rantings of a banana republic despot, and only those who do find such appeal believe it's the mainstream media's fault for Trump's unpopularity.

Yeh, Trump also said he saw no reason why it would (and wouldn't) have been Russia backing him in the election.

Only the very finest people rally to preserve the public symbols of White Supremacy. That's their "Southern Heritage".

To be fair--brandonbullshit is correct. Trump Tower was tapped by the FBI....but that is because Trump housed some Russian mobsters there for years. (Giant suite under's Trump's lavish palace to tackiness) So, you know, of course the FBI would be listening to known international criminals. IT was an illegal gambling ring, run by a multi-convicted Russian criminal, that is now on the run (IIRC). So, you know, of course there would be no reason for the FBI to order surveillance of Trump Tower--mind you, this started well before Chief Mushroomdick decided he could play-act as president.

Oh, was Trump Inc perhaps recorded on some of those conversations, speaking with their buddies? Oh damn, that's just unfortunate I guess.

LoL--Trump was so fucking under-the-water when he FAILED TO SUCCEED WITH A CASINO, that he was forced to host a fucking Russian mafia casino boss in his own tower, to begin working off debts that the Russian (State?) brought to him. LoL--this scandal just writes itself. In any other situation, this asshole would be in prison, probably executed for Treason, and you fucking know it.

So, what say you, dumbass?

I mean--you want to know one of the reasons that people flee from this guy? They read the actual briefings and catch wind of what the FBI and the Special Council has on this family, and they are literally terrified that any association with this Orange bucket of puss would wash over on them, and possibly, if they don't play things right, get them poloniumed by some Russian hitman.

But as long as Big Brother keeps the Trump Faithful blissfully uninformed and wholly unaware of the world around them, nothing can be amiss. All is right.

FAKE NEWS! Everyone knows those Librul Kennedys were the REAL mobsters!!!
