As Late-Night Hosts Attack, Trump Wants 'Equal Time'

Yes_Minister said:
Having him appear to be an Iranian toady seems like one of those jokes only hardcore conservatives would find funny, but most would think is cringey and I am sorry but there is way more material for Trump then no drama Obama.

You know what, I would happy to see conservatives try to make their own pro Trump late night show, because I am sure it would be awful and not funny at all, like the time Fox News tried to create their own version of the Daily Show:

Liberals find it funny to call a sitting prez an idiot. How does that differ? Late night shows aren't known for preaching decorum from a lofty pedestal .

Stand anywhere you please, but the fact is that Trump is the President of the United States.

As Late-Night Hosts Attack, Trump Wants 'Equal Time'

President Trump took to Twitter Saturday to air a familiar complaint, with a twist. Trump says there's so much negative coverage of him on news and late-night talk shows that he wonders whether the networks should give him "equal time" to present his side of things.

The Snowflake-in-Chief is playing the victim again. Not exactly news.

Doesn’t DJT get a ton of coverage other than the late night shows? I bet the scale is tilted in his favor......

You bet. And PEW agrees.

Covering President Trump in a Polarized Media Environment | Pew Research Center

I didn't see the story address reasons like "well he deserves what he gets" but their methodology "Researchers coded stories from the 24 news outlets – with content pulled from more than 40 specific programs or websites – for a number of measures: etc." seems to be suspect in at least one way (unless I missed how they compensated) yet it still found overwhelming negative coverage.
Local and purely partisan outlets (not included among the 24 chosen) of all type usually refer back to one or more of those 24 major outlets when they just don't have the means of doing their own journalism.
That acts as force multiplier and the public impact is not accounted for in this study but would influence favorability polls.

Good satire is more then that and if this so easy, why can't conservatives create their own version of the Daily Show? Because the version of the Daily Show on Fox News sucked and was cancelled right away. But hey, why not try again, I would love to see awful the next conservative comedy show is.

Demanding fair treatment is the opposite of playing the victim.

It is also the right thing to do.

TRUMP IS RIGHT

There is a line, and the Elites long ago went over it.

This is not making fun of, this is attacking their nations leader because they dont agree with the voters.

What you call crossing the line might be what I call telling the truth.

Aren't we all truth tellers here? Every Trump supporter on this site claims to be telling the truth. Ironic really, since Trump lies constantly.

Conservatives found it funny to say that a sitting President wasn't born in America.

You will be in for a big disappointment. I'm going to go out on a limb and say some states will still vote Democrat in 2020.
