"The media is an extension of the Democratic Party"
If you’ve been staying on top of the ever-increasing severity of the Podesta email leak, you’re probably aware that the media has been deep in cahoots with the Clinton campaign. I know, I know, you were already aware of that. But now, “they” can’t argue when you make the claim, because Podesta’s messages contain incontrovertible evidence.
Today, on Stuart Varney’s Fox Business show, they ran through the list of salient leaks. ...Or, At least the ones that had been revealed prior to airing. After they read each one, Varney appeared to be flabbergasted.
O’Reilly promised to do a full rundown on his show tonight....
From the FCC’s web site:
What responsibilities do broadcasters have?
As public trustees, broadcasters may not intentionally distort the news. The FCC has stated publicly that “rigging or slanting the news is a most heinous act against the public interest.” The FCC may act to protect the public interest when it has received documented evidence, such as testimony from persons who have direct personal knowledge of an intentional falsification of the news. Without such documented evidence, the FCC generally cannot intervene.
What if I have comments or concerns about a specific news broadcast or commentary?
All concerns or comments about a specific news broadcast or commentary should be directed to the local station and network involved, so that the people responsible for making the programming decisions can become better informed about audience opinion.

To them, it’s worth cheating. If they succeed, they know they’ll never have to do it again!
Another fruitful possibility is campaign finance law.
Corporations are allowed to make independent contributions under Citizens United. But they are not allowed to coordinate efforts with individual candidate campaigns.
It seems we have ample evidence of the coordination of political campaigns with media corporation in kind contributions.
