Media Bias

I didn’t mention fox

I did mention all the entities that republicans believe are out to get them and how insane it is for republicans to believe those things.

Again the media is out to get republicans by having republicans be in every aspect of the media. I could see if republicans didn’t have access to the media, but they are everywhere.

If the media were against republicans, they’d cut republicans out.
Well obviously when we're talking about the media out to get Republicans we aren't talking about FOX. But the fact remains that most major newspapers and tv networks have a strong liberal bias and actively work towards installing Democrats into public office. And said media is actively trying to remove this president.

I think republicans are not in the reality based community when it comes to politics. republicans believe a lot of demonstrably insane and false things.

Things like the irs is out to get conservatives.
Fact remains that almost all applications by conservative political action committees for tax exempt status were held up/denied by the Cincinnati IRS office, which handles those applications, and the head of that office was subpoenaed by Congress, and refused to answer questions under oath, invoking her 5th Amendment privilege. And almost all liberal PAC's were approved.

Just imagine a political entity you don’t like claiming the media is out to get them, as well as the universities, Hollywood, the deep state players at the irs, the fbi, the justice department, the tech industry, etc. How’d you react?

Say for instance the founders of BLM said just the media is out to get them, what proof would they need to show for you to believe it?

Ask yourself have republican shown anything?

Besides an insane belief that it’s all true?

Yep the irs is out to get republicans. That seems logical to me. And despite controlling Congress republicans and investigating the incident, they could do nothing to punish anyone at the irs for being out to get them or even find any real wrong doing. Lol. You keep believing.

BLM is busy saying the White establishment is out to get them. Not a fair analogy. Let me ask you, are Democrats and Republicans locked in a struggle as to which direction the country should head? Are their ideas on how taxes are collected and allocated similar or opposite of each other? And on which side does most of the media fall? Do you find most of the media outside of FOX News, the Wall Street Journal, and some radio commentators supportive of the Republican agenda? If not are they being objective in their reporting or are the majority of articles and stories negative towards Republicans?

Why did she plead the 5th? Why was she, the head of an IRS field office, in constant contact with the White House, as well as going there numerous times? Logs are kept on phone calls and visitors. By the way if Republicans have their way the power of the IRS, as well as it's funding, would be diminished.

I asked you a simple question. republicans claim all of these entities are out to get them, yet there is no actual proof of it. I’m asking what proof would it take for you to believe it from a organization you don’t like making the same insane claim as republicans.

BLM is about limiting police violence and mistreatment against black Americans in their local communities.

To your question, I don’t know and neither do republicans.

As far as I can see, republicans speak for themselves within the media. They are a huge part of the media. They are there on every political show, they write in every national newspaper. republicans are everywhere in the media speaking for themselves all the time.

Again if the media were out to get republicans they’d cut them out completely. And present republican policies from their perspective, but that’s not reality.

In fact republicans are much more likely to be interviewed on political shows.

republicans are completely and thoroughly in the media.
So if the media is out to get them why would they allow republicans to be such a huge part of the media?

I picture the entire main media as a "Joy Behar"........always looking to cover Republican news, but it must be negative!!

Yep one person pleading the fifth was all it took to stop the investigation to prove the irs is out to get republicans. Seriously look at the logic you are employing.

To do what you claim would have involved many many people not just one. They could find no one else? They investigated this nonsense and came up with nothing.

And now you believe that they came up with nothing because one person pleaded the fifth in something that would have involved many many people that’s makes no logical sense.

How do we convict anyone of anything if pleading the fifth is all they have to do to thrawt the investigation?

Show me these Republicans who are thoroughly in the media! As for BLM, it was started on a lie that a young Black man was executed while on his knees saying "Stop! Don't shoot!" And pushes the narrative that Blacks are being killed in droves across the country by racist White cops. Simply not true, and their rhetoric got a number of cops killed by Blacks who believed them. Are there bad cops doing bad things? Sometimes yes. But the vast majority, more than 90%, of Black murders are committed by other Blacks. And until the rhetoric matches the reality people like BLM and White liberals who fan the flames are hurting, not healing, the racial divide.

They came up with plenty. Deny all you want, but all those conservative PAC's weren't approved in what should've been a routine matter.

Off the top of my head, here’s who I can name.

Paul Gigot, Peggy Noonan, David Brooks, George Will, Stephen Hayes, Ross Douhart, Robert Costa, Dave Wiegal, Mike Barone, Carline Baum, Charles Krauthammer, Megyn Kelly, Bill Kristol, and there are many many more.
