Is the mainstream news media a disgrace? In the tank for Hillary?

Makes sense... you aren't right-wing.

How do you feel about MSNBC?

MSNBC is mostly political commentary...just like FoxNews. But MSNBC is not the same as the NBC Nightly News. I'm not surprised you don't know the difference between opinion and the news, Josie. But it is disappointing.

I didn't say it was. You don't hold right-wing news (Fox News) in high esteem, but you won't say that about other news networks. Why is that?

If you don't know the difference between commentary, editorial opinion and the news, then that's your problem, not mine. :shrug:

I know the difference. I'm also able to discern bias in all three of them...which is contrary to the claims you are making about them.

And what kills me is that you honestly don't seem to grasp that you've made a molehill-to-mountain false equivalency. I do pity you, sir.

I did nothing of the kind and I pity the fact that you would assert such a thing.

That's debatable.

Please give examples of Fox News journalists who should've been fired for false reporting.

FoxNews doesn't fire journalists who report false information...instead they give them a raise and/or their own show.

Yes, I know you keep saying that. I'm asking you WHO are these journalists who report false information that never get fired? Please provide video and/or articles of this false information.

Weird. Didn't you just chastise another poster for not understanding the difference between opinion and news?

Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly aren't journalists. Can you point to an actual Fox News journalist who reported false stories?

Yes,....it's a shame that you think FoxNews is considered legitimate news. I've already said that I consider FoxNews to be news commentary and opinion and not a credible news source...so stop asking me to prove your stupid strawman.

What you "consider" isn't what is. Fox News has journalists who report the news, Moot, just like every other network.

I'm not the one who claimed the Fox News has journalists who report false stories and never get fired.... you are. Now it's your turn to prove it.

And if Fox News is JUST news commentary and opinion, then there are no journalists to report false stories and get fired. LOL!

The election was proven to be RIGGED when it came out both parties had rules in place so that the rich can change the voting if they wanted too.. just by spending a lot more money on a few delegates to stop the voters..... wining and dining.. and entertaining and travel

already proven 100 % RIGGED ... the voters don't count only the bought off few delegates count

It's hard to take a one issue voter seriously as well. So I guess that makes us even.
