Study: Fox, NBC & CBS evening news coverage of Trump's 1st 4 weeks

So negative stories outnumbering the positive ones by a 14 to 1 ratio, is what you deduced as me having trouble with numbers?

It seems that it's YOU who has the issue with the numbers, considering you generalised instead of posting any.

What exactly does the First Amendment mean to you?

Does it state anywhere in that amendment that the press MUST be friendly towards the POTUS?

MAJORITY NEUTRAL.

NEUTRAL sounds pretty god-damned fair to me. Kinda lets the reader make up their own mind.

LMAO... Nice subterfuge.

Sure it does and no it doesn't. Have I said anything suggesting otherwise? Of course I haven't.

Let me give you some of those numbers that you seem incapable comprehending.

43% of their stories were negative, which outnumbered the positive ones 14 to 1. (at Fox it was 2 to 1)
63% of the stories from Fox News were neutral, 9% more than NBC and CBS.

Let those numbers sink in and then figure out for yourself which is the more fair and balanced.

LMMFAO

The real point is who are the winners when the country splits up into political factions like Italy. There are lots of players seeking to do just that.

As a matter of fact it isn't... Your first clue should have been the title of this section of the forum:


Bias in the Media

Oh that's right. It's another place for the Trump Cult to whine about media coverage of Dear Leader.
I get it now. Sorry for interrupting. You can get back to your river of tears now...:lol:

Just as I figured that would be the extent of your rebuttal.

There are some posts which just aren't worth much of my effort. Clearly I felt your last response was one of those posts, for reasons already mentioned.

This study looked at all the stories that aired about President Trump on the nightly news programs from CBS, NBC and Fox during his first 4 weeks in office. They evaluated each story and determined whether it was positive toward Trump, negative toward him, or the story was neutral.






I knew the big 3 networks had it in for Trump, but 3% positive... Are you ****ing kidding me?

This study not only confirms what I've known for years about the liberal bias on NBC and CBS, but backs up everything I've said about Special Report being more centrist (aka fair and balanced) than any of the other networks nightly news broadcast. It also shows that the accusations made by the far left Fox News bashers, that Fox is in the tank for Donald Trump, to be a load of crap.

What we have here, is yet another study that the left will have to pretend doesn't exist in order to maintain their false claim that there is no liberal bias in the mainstream news media.

I'm surprised they found 3%. Trump's administration absolutely sucks, and has been one epic fail after another. There has been virtually nothing positive on which to report.

Numbers and statistics can be a real buzz-kill when they don't conform to what you would like people to believe... so I understand that ignoring them was really the only option available to you.

Of course you see things that way... and the folks at NBC and CBS see things from that very same liberal perspective, hence the label "Liberal Biased Mainstream Media".

Amusing you think using stats to point out your premise was dumb is "ignoring" statistics.

Have a good day, Grim. Keep the crusade alive, no matter how far you have to reach.

Try to keep intact, your denial that the mainstream news media doesn't have a liberal bias...

You have a good day also.

It's hard to be in the tank for someone who keeps Fing up, and royally.

You just keep on crusading, no matter how far you have to reach, no matter how many facts you have to ignore.

Did you notice that all MSM gave Trump pretty good reviews for his speech before Congress? CNN gave him a real strong review. That's because he finally did something presidential. Cooperating with Congress is what presidents are supposed to do! Not tweeting media wars. And not sending out a racist Tweet, "Wake up America", that gets somebody killed. He'll get a fair shake from the media, when he deserves it. I can only think of twice that he deserved it. The second was his tribute to the Navy Seal.
 
Yea blame the media for being bias, and not Trump for being bat crazy...
