We’re Witnessing the Collapse of The Shameful and Dishonest Liberal Media
The liberal media is this country has gone off the rails.
Yes, they’ve always been shills who push their whacko agenda.
However, this go-round they’re more unhinged than ever as they desperately fight to keep Donald Trump out of the White House.
In the process of doing so they’re exposing their unbridled bias in ways we never dreamed possible.
As a result, any shred of credibility or dignity the American press had left is dissolving into nothingness.
You are witnessing the collapse of the liberal media machine and the rise of the alt-media truth-seekers like, Info Wars, Mike Cernovich, Breitbart, and others, like Truthfeed.com who support and promote truth in a non-politically correct package.
From The NY Post:
The frenzy to bury Trump is not limited to the Clinton campaign and the Obama White House. They are working hand in hand with what was considered the cream of the nation’s news organizations.
The shameful display of naked partisanship by the elite media is unlike anything seen in modern America.
The largest broadcast networks — CBS, NBC and ABC — and major newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post have jettisoned all pretense of fair play. Their fierce determination to keep Trump out of the Oval Office has no precedent.
Indeed, no foreign enemy, no terror group, no native criminal gang suffers the daily beating that Trump does. The mad mullahs of Iran, who call America the Great Satan and vow to wipe Israel off the map, are treated gently by comparison.
By torching its remaining credibility in service of Clinton, the mainstream media’s reputations will likely never recover, nor will the standards. No future producer, editor, reporter or anchor can be expected to meet a test of fairness when that standard has been trashed in such willful and blatant fashion.
Liberal bias in journalism is often baked into the cake. The traditional ethos of comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable leads to demands that government solve every problem. Favoring big government, then, becomes routine among most journalists, especially young ones.
I know because I was one of them. I started at the Times while the Vietnam War and civil rights movement raged, and was full of certainty about right and wrong.
My editors were, too, though in a different way. Our boss of bosses, the legendary Abe Rosenthal, knew his reporters leaned left, so he leaned right to “keep the paper straight.”
That meant the Times, except for the opinion pages, was scrubbed free of reporters’ political views, an edict that was enforced by giving the opinion and news operations separate editors. The church-and-state structure was one reason the Times was considered the flagship of journalism.
Those days are gone. The Times now is so out of the closet as a Clinton shill that it is giving itself permission to violate any semblance of evenhandedness in its news pages as well as its opinion pages.
A recent article by its media reporter, Jim Rutenberg, whom I know and like, began this way: “If you’re a working journalist and you believe that Donald J. Trump is a demagogue playing to the nation’s worst racist and nationalistic tendencies, that he cozies up to anti-American dictators and that he would be dangerous with control of the United States nuclear codes, how the heck are you supposed to cover him?”
Whoa, Nellie. The clear assumption is that many reporters see Trump that way, and it is noteworthy that no similar question is raised about Clinton, whose scandals are deserving only of “scrutiny.” Rutenberg approvingly cites a leftist journalist who calls one candidate “normal” and the other “abnormal.”

I am aquinted with, a couple of people who have always been the object of medias hatred. I view them, as the media gods, they tell you what to believe how to think in the tunnel of their creation.
My confidence in what you report is becoming nonexistent. When you report things dishonestly, with a biased presentation, you no longer are “reporting” anything. You have become a manipulative organization supporting personal or paid views with an agenda to sway public opinion. This is disgustingly nonprofessional. I want you to know that until I am convinced you publish truthfully with integrity, I will accept the opposite of anything you present. I have no interest in anythjng you say at this point. Shame on you. You open your mouth and deceit emerges. You twist and distort truth for dishonest and evil agendas. I assume you are well paid for this. Too bad money won’t buy integrity or trust.
If you’re talking to the NY Slimes, good. If you’re talking to truthfeed, you’re a fucking idiot.
i beleive nothing the main stream media reports any more abc,cbs,nbc,msnbc,cnn they are all bought and paid by the liberals and clintons.if they reported that the russians were off the coast of new york set to attack i would have to check with fox news before i would beleive them. they have no journalist working for them anymore just writers who try to change the facts to fit their stories and a bunch of outright liars
Anyone who could write the following with a straight face is as delusional as anyone pumping propaganda out through the MSM:
“The mad mullahs of Iran, who call America the Great Satan and vow to wipe Israel off the map, are treated gently by comparison.”
This is a pile of horse poo.The author knows it but prefers to repeat it…hmmmm….Talk about destroying your own credibility.
“If you’re a working journalist and you believe that Donald J. Trump is a demagogue playing to the nation’s worst racist and nationalistic tendencies, that he cozies up to anti-American dictators and that he would be dangerous with control of the United States nuclear codes, how the heck are you supposed to cover him?”
How are you supposed to cover him? You have to be TOLD this? DETACHED FROM YOUR OPINIONS, THAT’S HOW. You’re not being paid for your opinions. You’re being paid to report THE TRUTH. If you want to voice your opinion, write in your blog. On the news side, simply report the FACTS. Show you have PROOF he is a demagogue, otherwise you’re just another sheep following an accusation made by another opinion-maker. DEMAGOGUE is a word being tossed about lately, mostly by people who simply heard someone else say it. Show you have PROOF he would be dangerous with the codes? Nothing? Then don’t report it as news.
The media and the Left have been calling him some of these names from the beginning, and people just toddle along behind them, spouting the same rhetoric without ANY facts to support the claims. Instead of simply playing “follow the leader” with your journalism, you need to break free and get the FACTS. Rise above.
Where’s the scoop, Man? Where’s the REPORT that nobody else has? You’re just repeating the same tired, old, stale things others have said before you. Nothing to see here, folks. Just move along.
Reporters/Journalists report the FACTS; if not, you are NOT a reporter, you’re just a blogger.
Totally agree.
It amazes me how a journalist can chance destroying their career over LIES in a Presidential campaign! Never in my 60 years of life have I seen main street media so dishonest. Personally I take offense to this. Here is my message to you. You are not the judge and jury! You my friends are reporters who are supposed to have ethics and do investigating to only report the TRUTH about both candidates. We the People decide who to trust and vote for President….not you. YOU have the same right we do …ONE VOTE! It is way too obvious that YOU choose the news and pick apart Donald Trump by slandering every word he says. YES SLANDERING!! When you have real news about a dishonest woman “Hillary” trying to sell out our country for foreign favors. What in the hell do you think is going to happen to your children? Or do you even care? I am so sickened by the media’s dishonesty that I would vote for Trump just to spite your ass and more and more real Americans are following suit! Yep, you are losing big time. You are losing your followers and the election for your precious lying Hillary!
I am so glad that someone has finally come forward and brought this out in the open. This is not just an issue concerning opinion, it is out right lying and slander. How can anyone justify what Hillary has done, never do they print the emails from Wiki Leaks that detail the extent of her corruption. Are these people so morally bankrupt that money comes before truth.
Wake up. There is no liberal media or conservative media, only CORPORATE media and a few other outlets. Over 80% of the media in this country is owned by something like 8 companies. The goal of those 8 companies is PROFITS, not accurately and in context reporting of the news, PROFITS. Fox propaganda does have a conservative agenda consistent with its owner’s political views, but they are really after profits too.
True unbiased media with over 75% corporate lefty owners has tarnished what they are supposed to represent..TRUTH!! They are under the impression we don’t see it or are too dumb to see it! I’ve got news for them, we are watching and see the lies and corruption shown to us everyday..Journalism is on it’s last dying leg!
What needs to happen should Trump win election is that any and all Americans conservative or not, who are disgusted with the way the media has lied to the American people and the world at large to push the radical leftist DNC agenda, created animosity between our citizens by drum beating the narrative that every white person is a racist and every comment or action is motivated out of keeping people down. The media this time needs to be pinned in place and made to answer for their despicable actions, everyday citizens and the media need to be reminded of the medias dishonesty and untrustworthy character. Time and again they have been let off the hook and because of it , they have become emboldened to the point that they don’t hide their bias or their disdain for the average person because they believe we are stupid because they keep getting away with their bull shit without repercussion. every publication, radio network and television network that is formatted and identifies it’s program as news needs to be required to prove by it’s reporting to be impartial or it will be required to advertise it’s programs as tabloid journalism or lose it’s broadcast license. If they are unwilling or incapable of reporting honestly and impartially the facts as they appear not what their political / ideological world view wants it to be and wants everyone else to see what they want the facts to be not as they are, then they will have to be required by law to do so. The media has a great deal of ownership for the mess this country and our government has become, they have willfully covered for the likes of the Clintons, Obama, and a host of other corrupt politicians and others because they are of the same ideological belief. As an individual who is found to have been aware of crime before, during or after any one or all stages, would be said by the courts to have engaged in conspiracy by remaining silent to a crime being committed , lied to protect one who committed a crime after the fact. They are guilty of having done all of those many, many times over the years. The first amendment was written and worded specifically to ensure that the press would have protection from the people who were in power at any given time, to report to the people honestly to them about what their elected officials operating their government in the name of the American people, were up to. The press would tell the people what politicians hide from them and that in turn kept politicians more in line than they would have otherwise. The press is the only profession that had an amendment written to protect it and enable to report on the powerful without fear of reprisal. The media has acted in concert with a political party with whom they share an ideology, to push an agenda by lying about what was happening, misrepresenting facts to protect those in power who have access to the authority and mechanisms to do so. In short, they violated the spirit of the constitutional amendment that ensured they could not be prevented from keeping the truth from the people and engaged in subverting the constitution and the trust of the people with corrupt politicians in acting against the best interests of the nation and it’s people. The media was not in the bank per se robing the tellers, but they definitely played the part of get away driver, look out, and safe house provider. They had an important role to play in the well being of the republic and they betrayed that roll, therefore having shown the depth of their own corruption and proven to be completely untrustworthy, there must be put in place a legal mandate that requires it under penalty of the law to report in the manner the constitutions 1st amendment intended by protecting the press from government intimidation or be required to represent it’s stories as tabloid or opinion pieces. Sorry this was a long rant and may sound stupid, but the media has much responsibility to bear for a lot of what is plaguing this nation as well as enabling the unbridled and blatant government corruption that exists today in scope and depth as never before.
Well written. Agree 100%. Her speech defining us as a basket of us as despicably deplorable was one for the ages..It put what all of you are talking about into perspective.. We need to make her pay for her calling us every phoboic in the book. Live in Northern MN, I have a phobic about all the leftwing libtards in this state and bears and 30 below.. I’ve read all of your responses, I’m just friggin glad their are people out there like you. Starting to get my ice house ready for winter, nothing separates you from the left wing ,libtard vile, then a fish house. The DFL here in Minnesota tried to remove Trump from the ballet on procedeural frig up by the GOP here.. If the Queen gets the throne, it’s up to us to dethrone her. Didn’t spend 8 years in the USN to defend royalty. Our job is to dethrone the queen.
