Your lack of coherence explains why so many of your posts are illogical.

so you don’t have an issue with a CNN anchor asking the former
head of the FBI, if the FBI should have shut down criticism of the candidate that CNN also happened to give debate questions to. this isn’t some child who asked that question, itbwas a political expert in CNN.

yes pete, liberals can ask questions. but they don’t need to be so biased. when i was young, you could watch the news, and have no idea whether the news person was a democrat or a republican. now they are all liberal
activists.

anyway, you aske
me a question, i answer it. i can do that, because i think about things before i decide my opinion, i don’t obey orders given to me by someone else.

You need me to tell you that some media leans left?
Somehow that means reporters cannot ask questions you object to.
Some people incorrectly believe that it is the role of the police to stop actions like those that occur in Trump Rallies and it is a valid question.


Meanwhile you believe everything the State/Faux propaganda machine rolls out, and it is quite an organized machine.
The close alignment of Faux and Trump should make you worry more than the rest of the media.
He and his supporters are making Emergency Powers close to The Enabling Act, and one could equate his reaction to the Democrats to the Barmat Scandal.
But history never repeats, does it.

Your response "Scary try watching a Trump rally... But all you'll see is real American values" was in response to a Jim in CT post. You referred to a Trump rally as being what is scary, not that what I said was. Again, there is a lack of coherence even here where you lose continuity between your own posts.

funny and I am the illogical one ??
I don't know you. I don't know how logical you are in personal conversations. But many of your posts are incoherent contradictions.

Slurs against her back ground and where she is from ... only proven to be lies shocking

Christiane Amanpour
Journalist

Education: The University of Rhode Island (1983), New Hall School, Holy Cross Convent School

Nationality: American, British, Iranian


born January 12, 1958, London, England

she went to the exclusive New Hall School, the oldest Roman Catholic girls’ school in the United Kingdom.
"Slurs against her back ground and where she is from ... only proven to be lies shocking "

What did I lie about, please specify? I asked if she was from Iran. I didn't state she was from Iran. Do you know what the grammatical symbol "?" means?

I'm not engaging in slur because she's Iranian. I'm engaging in slur because she doesn't understand why it's a horrible idea for the FBI to go after people who criticize the politicians that CNN happens to like. You don't get that?

"You need me to tell you that some media leans left? "

You really, really have an aversion to answering question, don't you?

If you look at the entire TV media minus Fox news, is there an obvious, glaring, consistent left bias? Yes or no?

."Somehow that means reporters cannot ask questions you object to"

Hearing those voices again. They can ask fair, objective , challenging questions. Asking if the FBI should go after Clinton critics, does not qualify. Because she would never, ever, in a million years, ask if the FBI should go after those who criticize Trump. That's the difference.

As I said, when I was younger, all the journalists were democrats, but you could never tell from watching them at work. Now it's obvious. They're political activists who call themselves journalists.

"Meanwhile you believe everything the State/Faux propaganda machine rolls out"

Again, hearing voices with help from your tin foil hat. I disagree with the GOP on gay marriage, the death penalty, and to some extent, gun control and health care. And I think Trump is a scumbag. How many times do I have to say that, before you comprehend it? Are we almost there? Are we close?

"The close alignment of Faux and Trump "

Tucker Carlson criticizes Trump every night, as does Chris Wallace and Brett Baier. Megyn Kelly hated him, although she's obviously not there anymore. At Foxnews, you have the folks on Fox&Friends, and Sean Hannity, who are his lapdogs. The others will criticize him. Who at CNN or MSNBC ever criticized Obama, who there ever says anything good about Trump?

Is there a close alignment between the DNC and CNN/MSNBC?

No Jim, not nearly as far left as Faux is to the right

Chanting "lock her up" at a political rally qualifies as being a political critic as much as Kathy Griffins holding a fake head. What was your opinion of that?

You've bought into Trump's Fake news gaslighting and sound like the drunk's wife, who claims he really loves her, he's really a good man, as she stands there with a black eye, again

"The close alignment of Faux and Trump "

Former Fox News president Joe Peyronnin says the network is now President Trump’s "own press organization." And that’s "not healthy."

Tucker Carlson criticizes Trump every night, as does Chris Wallace and Brett Baier. Megyn Kelly hated him, although she's obviously not there anymore. At Foxnews, you have the folks on Fox&Friends, and Sean Hannity, who are his lapdogs. The others will criticize him. Who at CNN or MSNBC ever criticized Obama, who there ever says anything good about Trump?
So when you were a child the reporters just reported the news and that was good, but when Obama became president they should instead have actively criticized him rather than report the news

Is there a close alignment between the DNC and CNN/MSNBC?
What other President has called a media figure nightly?

You have some proof that the media is somehow coordinated against Trump by the DNC? Maybe the "deep state" runs it?
