It will be ugly. 99% of Trump supporters will deny he did anything wrong no matter what. 99% of Hilary supporters will insist he should be impeached, no matter what.

Noose is tightening. We'll see soon how much is fact, speculation, and how much is Resistance Wishcasting.

Gee it would be nice if only we had a trustworthy and unbiased national news media. When (if) the SHTF the news will have punted much of its credibility for us to rely on.

We do but conservatives have have done a fantastic job of promoting a narrative that does not exist They have done the same with the CIA The FBI and others
Basically if the facts don’t show the outcome they want it’s fake news

so the mainstream media doesn’t have a serious left wing bias in it’s reporting? fox is right leaning, everyone else is in the tank for the democrats. that’s not true?
Have you ever said anything complimentary about the right, or critical about the left?

if you google “statistics media bias”, you’ll see all manner of data that makes it crystal clear. here’s a study done by UCLA, Stanford, University of Chicago, and UPenn. they found significant liberal bias in the media. these are not right-wing schools.
Obviously not every report that praises liberals or attacks conservatives is biased. but there’s an agenda there, an obvious agenda to help democrats get elected. Do you really not see that? how stupid would it be, if i denied that Sean Hannity is in the GOPs pocket?

That report is interesting but incomplete
The majority of people get their news from the three cable news networks Fon, CNN, MSNBC
Of the three, the one with right wing bias holds the largest share

And that share is about 1% of the US population.
Here is a sincere question...do more people get news from cable news, than network news?
And Fox isn't as right-leaning, as the other two are left. Fox has some shows (Fox and Friends, Hannity) that are as biased as it gets. Fox also has shows like the 6:00 Brett Baier show, that aren't very biased. Does CNN or MSNBC have a show on in prime time, that's not in the tank for liberals?
Fox's 8:00 PM show is hosted by a guy who really dislikes Trump.
