Networks' nightly newscasts have ‘incessantly hostile’ tone toward Trump, study indicates

A new study by a conservative media watchdog group concludes that the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts have covered President Trump with negative spin 90 percent of the time, but claims the coverage has done little to sway the public's overall opinion of his administration.

Media Research Center senior editor Rich Noyes analyzed every episode of “NBC Nightly News,” ABC’s “World News Tonight” and “CBS Evening News” since Trump’s Jan. 20, 2017 inauguration. Noyes noted that the “tone of coverage remains incessantly hostile” and was only positive 10 percent of the time.

“To determine the spin of news coverage, our analysts tallied all explicitly evaluative statements about the President or his administration from either reporters, anchors or non-partisan sources such as experts or voters,” Noyes wrote. “Evaluations from partisan sources, as well as neutral statements, were not included.”

Which is why America has abandoned ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts as propaganda machines.

You don’t need a “study” to know this. The commie and Nazi ‘RATS hate Americans. They all want to be African or Hispanic these days.

I stopped watching the Networks after the slobbering sucking up to Bill Clinton . Unless the source was as bad to Bubba as I figured he was I wanted nothing to do with it.

no study needed. FakeNewsMSM is so toxic, it died from its own poison.

It’s the same manifestation of psychotic hysteria that led to 918 people voluntarily killing themselves at Jonestown Guyana in 1978, except this time in the high-minded “progressive” confines of New York City and Washington D.C. It’s a collective ideological madness that feeds on itself to the point of self-destruction.

I see CBS is moving it’s Pacific edition newscast to 6:30. I’m devastated. 5:30 was appointment TV for Jeff Glor.

Add late night “comedy” shows to anti-Trump programming.

Of course. These people are the enemy of the US Constitution. Why are so many people blind to this fact?

Fake news is exactly what Nazi Germany used. We should refer to the lying news outlets as NAZI NEWS.
