    Kind of sad when I can find more positive news sources for Kim Jong-un, who enslaves his own people, than for Trump, who has the audacity to be served two scopes of ice cream.

      It is getting so bad that former Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward of Watergate fame said reporters need to "dial back" the anti-Trump coverage while he was on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," and even describing it as "binge drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid."

          I do think the media is a bit excessive with the Russian collusion thing, due to lack of any real evidence. Just about everything else is fair game.

            Even liberal news sources are starting to report that the coverage has been ridiculously unfair and is even dangerous:

            From the Rolling Stone:
            "It's why liberal thinkers have traditionally abhorred secret courts, secret surveillance and secret evidence, and in the past would have reflexively discouraged the news media from printing the unverified or unverifiable charges emanating from such secret sources. But because it's Donald Trump, no one seems to care."

            Source: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics...-start-w482262

            I'd like to welcome the first members of the liberal press to a place conservatives have been at for over a decade.

                  Conservatives have got to stop shooting the messenger.

                  He's getting overwhelmingly negative coverage because he has no idea what he's doing at all, which has resulted in his presidency being full of idiotic mistakes that the media can't help but cover -- it's their job to do so. What are they so supposed to do, pretend his incompetence and corruption doesn't exist?

                      I wonder how you feel about the overwhelmingly negative coverage of Obama by FOX for eight years.

                      Justified, right?

                        Lots of good stuff happened, probably no recent president did as much in so short time (which is why fake news media lie and says he failed)

                        Off top of head:
                        1) SCOTUS: Scalia replacement in
                        2) TPP: killed
                        3) Jobs: YUUUUUGE number of new jobs, hundreds of thousands upon hundreds of thousand
                        4) Wall: last I heard they testing prototypes, progressing well!!!
                        5) Deportation of illgals: ICE deporting them, also
                        6) Illegal immigration: YUUUUGE drop in illegals coming in!!!
                        7) Rebalancing trade with China (also other countries): new trade deals with China signed recently
                        8) Keystone pipeline: approved
                        9) Syria (&Russia), NK (&China): handled okay with no WW3
                        10) Obamacare: repeal in progress

                        I repeat myself but fake news media says Trump failed, so 'I can think for myself' you parrot and say he failed

                          Granted for the sake of argument, but you don't think they could balance the bad with the good? And please don't say there's nothing positive to report about Trump.

                            Was FOX overwhelmingly negative when it came to Obama? I'm not sure. I thought they were pretty evenhanded, all things considered, and if they were overwhelmingly negative, it was offset by the overwhelmingly positive coverage he got from every other mainstream outlet. Trump is getting nothing but negative, except for FOX which is about 50/50 positive versus negative.

                              Out of the hundreds of news sources (including tax payer funded NPR) you found one that actually criticize Obama?
                              This isn't helping your case if you're trying to establish media credibility.

                              Fox News Negative Coverage Of Obama (during campaign): 46% - MSNBC was more negative towards Obama.

                              I know the Fox News bias ya'll were taught in school just doesn't pan out in actual studies.
                              Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies.

                                So instead of citing biased news sources for your viewpoint you've back peddled to citing yourself as the reliable source.
                                Okay.
