CNN and NBC covered Trump 93% negative

[Xeones]

I find myself disagreeing with the entirety of this statement, excluding the comment of Mr. President's ability to lie.

It is a hard position to argue that one can become the President of the United States without being smart and successful.

I would argue that he actually became president because he wasn't smart. It was constantly cited that his poor ability with words was one of the reasons his supporters supported him. "He tells it like it is!"

Literally the only "positive" thing Trump has done that can I can think of off the top of my head is pulling out of the TPP.

Where is he supposed to get positive coverage when basically everything he does is negative? Even when people try to give him good coverage, like that one speech he did before congress, he almost immediately blows it all away with a stupid tweet accusing Obama of having him wiretapped.

The man is a buffoon at the head of a party trying to be Saturday morning cartoon villains. 93% negative sounds quite generous.

Pulling out of TPP is a short term feel good, medium term geopolitical disaster for the United States.

We'll recover because TPP will return, under a new name, in a different form. Because it's an idea's whose time has come.

It is as wrong as calling every neo nazi, alt-right and libertarian "conservatives". Conservatives just are those who keep traditions and shared values, based on the civilization they live in.

Sure, if you want to use the dictionary definition and not the political one. Which is going to give conservatives some heartburn when they have to apply it to liberal and progressive.

I'm curious. What stories did they put out that constitutes 7% positive? This is a small number so it should be possible to list and link them yes? Right now I'm incredulous that there was even 7%.

There was the gorsuch appointment. He's also signed a couple bland EOs -- or ones without any real teeth like the religious freedom one.

There's also some bills of no real consequence signed. He also held a few meetings that didn't result in a controversy. Gave some speeches that could be considered positive.

I mean, I get the dislike people have for Trump but it's not a real stretch to think of things he's done that would generate 7% of decent coverage.

Well. I cover Trump 100% negative. Bow down and pump up your numbers.

[Cthulhu 2020]

Trump does a terrible job in his first 120 days, news stations cover it, Trumpkins are triggered by their coverage. News at 11.

Fox looked pretty neutral to me. That is why people from the left don't like them.

Fox News would sing the praises of a shit sandwich, if it was served to them by a republican.

[Draco-Onis]

The study was specific to CNN and CBS. Fox News and Briebart were not counted in this study.

10% is a pretty low bar but the reason I bring it up is that I don't remember seeing a positive piece on Trump from either of those organizations.

The op left out the entire information because it did not fit his narrative but even Fox News is struggling to give Trump positive headlines.

[Adam Jensen]

Because about 93% of the stuff he's done has been negative.

Do only bad things and you get only bad reviews. Whodathunkit

The left wing runs better propoganda and indoctrination than the nazis or scientolgists at this point. CNN is a joke, MSNBC is a joke and Fox News is the only one that tries to be remotely unbiased. Intenet news is shit but better sourced than CNN at this point

"Unbiased" is altrightspeak for "Not critizizing trump too much".

So.. it fits, at some deep, deep worrying level of illusion.

Agreed.

I almost spit my food out when I read this. Faux new unbiased?



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They shouldn't be that one sided though should they? 93%...

Jesus christ...seriously? What should they do instead? Lie and be positive? As terrible a president as Trump is his election and subsequent time spent in office has put a huge spotlight on how truly ignorant many people in this country are. At worst Trump will be gone in 8 years but we are stuck with the idiots who put him in office for decades and god only knows who they will decide to put in office next.

[Edge-]

Jesus christ...seriously? What should they do instead? Lie and be positive?

"Yesterday it was reported that the president casually 'declassified' highly classified information to Russian officials during his meeting with them, intelligence that was shared with the US by an ally as part of an intelligence sharing agreement. Isn't it wonderful that we have a president so eager to work with our enemies that he's willing to trust them enough to give them such sensitive information that's not even his to share?!"

Yes, all news that isn't Fox News is shit or is a joke, with Fox News being the only glimmer of hope... yet, it's everyone else that is indoctrinated...

Only been a few months. What did Obama/Bush/Clinton/Reagan/Carter do in their first 100 days?

Not be the subject of a federal investigation?

[Felya]

Not be the subject of a federal investigation?

There is quite a bit each one did... for example, Reagan was shot...

What was the one positive thing he's done so far? I'm curious.
