It's not a lie. Your source (World Press Freedom?) says that all the media you listed have a bias left or right. And they all use loaded words which attempt to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes.

Not mentioned is editorial slant. What is "factual reporting"? Do any report extensively on all "facts"? For instance, is there extensive reporting on the jailing of Tommy Robinson or on the facts he has been bringing to light?


But the rest of the press listed have Factual Reporting some a little bias both ways.... But for Trump and his supporters its all Fake lies made to discredit him... 9 out 10 report the same story Trump supporters are going with the 10ths versions of events aka FOX
9 out of 10 report the same story? Is there some collusion that they choose to reflect each other? Or are they motivated by the same bias?

Has anyone rated World Press Freedom? Does it have a bias?

You lie when you say "But for Trump and his supporters its all Fake lies made to discredit him..." It's not ALL fake news, but much of it is, including minimization or omission of positive news re Trump.

The argument as usual is baseless, with no substance other than you claim that it is true.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Baseless? You who habitually throw stuff out without an apparent point and fail to back most of your stuff up, especially not in your own words? I asked 5 questions. Are the questions baseless? Aren't questions their own base?

The one positive statement that I made was a response to Wayne's saying that for Trump and his supporters the press is all Fake made to discredit him. It is not baseless, as one of his supporters, to say it's a lie to accuse me of saying that the entire Press is Fake. The basis for my saying that I don't claim such a thing is that I have not so claimed. I have said some of it is Fake, and it is that part that Trump and his supporters (including me) refer to as fake. Neither Trump nor his supporters have said the entire Press is fake.

And there have been several citations of fake news supposedly discrediting Trump submitted in past posts. As Spence would say, it's in the archives.

Has anyone rated World Press Freedom? Does it have a bias? is that how you dispute their information just call it Bias ? and the truth goes away ?? Facts are facts bias only help change the story in ones mind you demonstrate that skill often (see comment above )

You lie when you say "But for Trump and his supporters its all Fake lies made to discredit him..." It's not ALL fake news, but much of it is, including minimization or omission of positive news re Trump.

Now that is a Dear leader comment if i have ever heard one .. and here i thought right leaning people were against the every deserves a trophy .... if you need the media to show Trump in a positive image of report positive news of Trump . move to Russia or North Korea where they are very good at it. or have him actually do or say some positive things...
Is there a personal or intellectual line Trump can not cross ?? or are you just willing to shelve morals, personal integrity, and comon decency to get a crumb that may fall off Trumps Table

reference to Franklin D. Roosevelt,

“Should we go back to 16 years? Congressman, can we have that extended? The last time I jokingly said that, the papers started saying 'he's got despotic tendencies!' No, I'm not looking to do it, unless you want to do it.”

“He's now president for life. President for life,” Trump said of Xi. “No, he's great. And look, he was able to do that. I think it's great. Maybe we'll have to give that a shot someday.”

Sorry its not hyperbole when it comes from the POTUS
