Distrust of mainstream media at all time high, poll says
The Examiner ^ | 9/21/12 | Joe Newby

According to a poll released by Gallup on Friday, a vast majority of Americans do not trust the so-called "mainstream media," known here as the "Democrat-media complex."

Gallup said that distrust of the media hit an all-time high this year, "with 60% saying they have little or no trust in the mass media to report the news fully, accurately, and fairly."

According to the poll, negativity toward the media "is at an all-time high for a presidential election year," and is driven largely by Republicans and independents.

"Republicans continue to express the least trust in the media," Gallup said, "while Democrats express the most."

The results of the poll really are not very surprising, given the blatant anti-Republican bias in much of the media.

During the Republican convention, for example, American voters saw the spectacle of a biased media describing every word Republicans uttered as racist while largely ignoring speeches given by elected GOP minorities and candidates like Mia Love.

You're so correct about Fox, Flaglady.

It's become a showcase and propaganda platform for a constant stream of liberals, leftists, socialists, commies, Dems spouting talking points, Obama shills, liars, spinners, RINOs, muzzie apologists, phony "strategists", smooth-talking academics, turncoat conservatives. and spouters of endless, meaningless polling figures.

Even the commercials stink.

Watching Brian Williams(NBC) right now and he looks and talks very subdued, knowing that their propaganda is not working.

The Simpering Pansy Brian Williams is GREAT!

The Simpering Pansy Brian Williams' report the day of the Virginia Tech shootings was so over the top, so biased, so much a part of the leftist propaganda machine ambiance that it was the last time I ever watched any national "news" program on the telly. Cold turkey. Not a bit of it. All due to the transparent, nose-between-the-buttocks-of-the-liberal-fascists, brown-lipstick, demo-butt-kissing, whiney-girly-man, party-line Simpering Pansy Brian Williams.

Thanks, Bri-bri!

With all due contempt,
Peet

P.S. Someday, I'll tell y'all how I really feel.
