'Their Skin Is Crawling': Mika Says MSM Can't Be Objective About Trump
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/04/2016 5:37:46 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Mika Brzezinski has let the cat out of the MSM bag. On today's Morning Joe, Mika admitted that the press corps covering Donald Trump can't be objective about him: "it's like their skin is crawling."

Brzezinski said reporters "ooze with a lack of objectivity" when covering Trump, adding "you can sort of see it in their kind of like smiling, sort of slyly and uncomfortably and almost snarkily while they're reporting on his rallies." Of course, what is true about MSM coverage of Trump has been true of the way the liberal media covered many Republicans. Does anyone think, for instance, that the MSM gave a fair shake to Mitt Romney or George W. Bush?

I wonder what inspired Mika’s sudden burst of honesty. Perhaps she thinks the general public is so impressed with the journo crowd that we’ll all come to share their views of conservatives and Trump as ickey. Sorry Mika, nobody’s creepier than Hillary, her molestor husband and the jihadi girlfriend at the other end of her strap-on.

I tend to believe that the media’s complete lack of objectivity is having the exact opposite effect of their intent. Average Americans - a helluva lot of them - Republicans, Democrats and independents alike, like what Trump has to say, listen to the media spin it and get pissed off.

As Jim Quinn (www.warroom.com) often says, “Liberalism always has the exact opposite of its stated intent...”

I would think that covering the Clintons would make their skin crawl.

“If you watch any of these Journ-o-listers you can see the hatred of Trump and Republicans in general oozing from their pores.”

Including on Fox Sneeze.

I experienced this over the Christmas holiday when I was conned into observing an NBC "newscast" by relatives. Lester Holt started by describing a survey where 50% of the respondents would be "embarrassed" by a Trump presidency. Holt hates trump so bad that you could actually see the spittle spraying from between his clenched teeth as he discussed Trump. He failed to mention that a large number of the respondents would also be embarrassed by a Hillary presidency. In my world, its a bald faced lie to fail to tell the whole truth.

Then Chuck Todd took over, telling how Trump called "all "Mexicans rapists and murderers". This was another bald faced lie, as Trump merely accurately has told of the large numbers of women and children being raped as they traversed Mexico seeking asylum, and of the woman murdered in San Frisco by a thrice deported illegal alien.

Clearly, these "reporters" hate Trump with such vitriol that they can't hide it. I'm not particularly a great fan of trump for president, but I love the way he exposes the charlatans in the media.

I am old enough to remember how they hated Ronald Reagan. He just laughed at them and blew them off. That really got them P.O.’d.

Trump has repeatedly charged the MSM with not covering the size of his crowds, that they only redirect their camera's when there are protesters.

Maybe soon we'll see Donald strolling among his supporters?

“Skin” crawling?

No, that would be womyn across the land crawling on their knees to worship/service William the Impeached, as many of them have already said they would be glad to do.

The Vagina Vote is a lock for the Clintons.

Jeb - those little bottles of energy drink at the checkout of the stores? Orange is the best flavor, though grape isn’t bad...

Secret Service likely would discourage that.

I bet she's speaking from personal experience.

Joe is even worse. Hey, Joe, have you heard the good news? The Supreme Court says that if you love Christie that much you can marry him!

“hilary is a foul rancid odorous corrupt hag and a felon offering nothing that will solve problems and is mroe of the same old 60’s socialist rehash.. a cheap political whore owned by wall street and appealing to the free stuff crowd... hoping to use her genitalia as the reason to vote for her while actually promoting and supporting women’s abuse and rape... a two faced brain damaged useless old bag...”

Nothing left to do but sweep up the ashes : )

Maybe Trump needs to fill Madison Square or Boston Garden to capacity just so the dim bulbs reporting on him can finally discern that his support isn’t just coming from flyover country.

The press is blinded by their hatred of everyday Americans AND Trump. They look out over his cheering happy crowds and report that his followers are 'angry'... It's hatred I tell you... raw hatred on the part of the press.

The irony is that claiming to be objective precludes the possibility that you are even trying actually to be objective.

It was a great segment this AM. I can't wait for hecklers to yell "What about Juanita Brodderick?" and "Rapist!" at every public appearance by Bill.

Kindly do not forget former UPI Little Rock Statehouse Bureau staffer Judy Danielak.

There's no Statute of Limitation on that one.

I wonder where all of the members of Bubba’s Arkansas State Trooper girl-procurement-and-disposal detail were located?
