The mainstream press ROUTINELY gets stories 180 degrees wrong. They have a narrative, and that narrative is "Orange Man Bad". Those of us who do not trust the media do not buy the narrative.

Most people I know who are reflexively anti-Trump generally accept the mainstream press reporting at face value - something the press really does not deserve.

After CNN-Sandmann Settlement Media Should Learn Lesson

The people who go into journalism overwhelming claim they want to "make the world a better place". That is precisely the wrong motivation for someone wanting to be a JOURNALIST, whose job is to chronicle events, not editorialize or promote. And they teach it in journalism schools, too, with the mantra "afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted" as the job of a reporter. HUH?

As Frank Capra said "if you want to sent a message try Western Union". Sam Goldwyn said something similar. Sadly the only people who actually make it in the profession are activists and sycophants.

This judgment won't stop them, because they believe this is their job, to promote leftist causes. Modern journalism is hopelessly corrupt. There is no commitment to truth, because truth won't advance their leftist beliefs.

Amazing; the media ARE the comfortable and they rage against anyone who afflicts them in the slightest.

It's past time we put the media on the hot seat. It's why Trump is so popular; he calls them out, afflicts these privileged, entitled stuffed-shirts.
