Draggingtree Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Investors Business Daily : News Media Completely Freak Out As Trump Closes Gap With Clinton 9/19/2016 Bias: Over the past week, Democrats have been in a state of panic as Donald Trump erased Hillary Clinton's lead in the polls. Not Democratic Party officials, mind you. But the Democrats who are supposed to report the news at those "objective" mainstream media outlets. Between last Sunday's political talk shows and this Sunday, Hillary Clinton collapsed trying to get into a van and her campaign was caught lying about her health, three terrorist attacks took place on American soil, and Donald Trump started surging in the polls. In other words, there was a lot of real news out there. So what did all the major Sunday shows spent the most time talking about? Donald Trump's foray into the Barack Obama birtherism swamp. Hosts of "Meet the Press," "This Week," and "Face the Nation" maniacally grilled Trump backers with questions about it — after Trump himself had said he believed Obama was born in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it. . . . President Barack Obama was born in the United States. Period." The press went orbital. "Trump Gives Up a Lie But Refuses to Repent" howled the headline over the lead story in the New York Times. Its editorial called Donald Trump a "reckless, cynical bully" spreading political poison in an "absurdist presidential campaign," adding that Trump is the "ultimate mountebank" using a "Big Lie" that "made him the darling of the wing nuts and racists" and "nativist hallucinators." You get the drift. https://www.chroniclesmagazine.org/trump-the-press-a-death-struggle/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
