There’s no media conspiracy against Trump (!!!)
https://washingtonpost.com ^ | OCT 19 2016 | Robert J. Samuelson

Posted on 10/20/2016 8:00:03 PM PDT by Beowulf9

Regardless of who wins the election, the press — or, at any rate, what used to be called the “mainstream” media — may be the big loser. Donald Trump is making a case that he’s the victim of an orchestrated media campaign to defeat him, and although the charge is not true, it may stick among his devoted followers.

“Orchestrated”? No.

Concerted? Yup.

It’s not orchestrated because it does not need to be. American mainstream media is like a terrorist organization: each cell has the same mission as the others and doesn’t need to be dependent on them. Their motives and methods are the same.

Keep on repeating that popular lie, and you may start to believe it. In reality, The Donald is being hit from almost every side, including plenty of RINO-Whig Republicans, who are determined to gracefully lose, as they have been doing.

Guess it depends on what the meaning of “conspiracy is” (like what the meaning of “is” “is”).

What part of the population will actually believe this? The lefties laugh at this. They are glad it’s “RIGGED”.

The media thinks the media is innocent? Nice. It’s like when OJ wanted to find the real killers.

I agree. This isn’t a media conspiracy against Trump. A conspiracy implies something secretive. The MSM is blatantly overt in their actions against Trump.

I know that there is no media conspiracy, because it says so in the Washington Post.

As long as I can remember there’s been some bias in the media, but I’ve never seen anything like what’s been happening this year. Within hours of an official talking point being approved (”Hillary ‘powered through’ Trump’s ‘sexual assault’ etc etc) it’s being parroted on all the major outlets. The O’Keefe videos and Bill Clinton’s illegitimate son are completely ignored while every accusation against Trump is put to the top of the news pile.

Guess what MSM a-holes - you aren’t going to destroy Trump, you’re going to destroy yourselves!

Hey Samuelson,

You live in an alternate universe.
