The amazing thing to me is the total lack of self-awareness by liberal reporters. So many of them really seem to think that they are being fair and neutral. They have never been outside of their liberal bubble to hear a cogent defense of conservatism. They have been totally indoctrinated, yet they think that they are the ones who are open-minded. Sheesh!

These liberal “journalists” are insufferable and smug.

If man made global warming is a fact, then why do these liberal journalists do not go after Al Gore for having multiple mansions and flying in his own private jet? So convenient to give these pontificating airheads a pass.

"I make no apologies for raining on Marc Ambinder’s
parade here because even if it’s well intentioned, the
underlying premise is flawed. "

It is not "well intentioned."
It's outright lying and deception.

Further, I think they have no idea how reviled and detested they are. No matter who wins, the so-called “press” has lost. They will never recover and I expect a lot of fallout after the election. I say we run them all out.

And then they have the audacity of being “upset” when Trump supporters boo them, shout them down, hiss at them, etc.
They should consider themselves lucky not to have gotten the Mussolini treatment....POS, all of em.

"Journalists" who take sides aren't journalists, they're propagandists, and journalists who make value judgments outside their areas of expertise are frauds and amateurs. What we are seeing in the AGW debate especially, is journalists arrogating roles in judgment who can't even properly define the terms used. A normal journalist would say, "Joe disagrees with Bob and Jack about anthropogenic global warming." A propagandist would say, "Joe is wrong about anthropogenic global warming because Bob and Jack say so." Armbinder extends that to, "Joe is wrong about anthropogenic global warming because I say so." That is, sadly, the rule set under which not only political journalists, but journalists at large, work under these days.

5. Forboding shots of WALL BUILDING

6. Exposes of mistreatment of women

7. Repeated reports of bloody misdeeds of Trump kids (fabricated = ok)

8. Long interviews of fashionistas explaining how Melania’s clothing is either stupid, or too good

I honestly think the MSM is in its death throes. Too many different sources of news available now for them to have a hold over anyone anymore. This is grossly manifest in the way they have thrown everything at Trump with little to no effect.

The other recent welcome change is the death of the Republican party as we know it.

They all want to act like John Stewart or like the people at Buzzfeed and “MTV News”.

You can already see it in the quality of writing, and the naked bias in their “articles”.

They barely read like reports and more like a set of orders as to how you are to think or feel about what they are writing about.

Gerbilists want to be more PC than they already are. Of course Trump is a threat to them. May their ad revenues fall and they learn first hand about Creative Distruction.

This is what happens when women enter the workplace.

The workplace becomes the family and the family has loyalties.

Trump should play hardball. Only invite Breitbart, Drudge type alternative press for his pressers when he’s President. Shut them out. It’s time to move on from these jack@sses.

Today, just a few days after the re-opening of the Clinton email investigation, the Seattle Times had a 33-paragraph article (from the NYT), commencing on the front page, about Trump's income tax strategies back in the early 1990s. The article reeked of suggestions that Trump was doing something illegal, but was not tempered by the fact that Trump was never charged with doing anything illegal.

There was a second fairly long story about Trump, concerning an alleged FBI investigation into some of his friends' business dealings with Russia. Again, nothing illegal was disclosed.

Hillary Clinton? No stories, but a color photo of a smiling Clinton speaking at a rally in which she criticized the FBI's handling of the email story.

I HATE THE MEDIA.

Journalists are nothing more than 12 year old girls writing make believe in their daily journals.

Reporters are supposed to report the who/what/where/why and how.

So, their solution to their problem is to be MORE biased?

“Journalists are supposed to bend over backwards to treat unpopular points of view with respect.”

DESPOTISM educational film from 1946:

It is advocacy journalism. Objective journalism is dead.

Worse, what was once considered the traditional media outlets that should be most trusted to follow the cannons of journalism are the worst offenders.

They think fairness is giving equal time to welfare socialism and welfare capitalism. The idea that a powerful, centralized welfare state is in itself a totalitarian concept incompatible with American freedoms is far beyond their ability to comprehend.

Yawn.

No one in the media gives a rat’s *ss bout fairness; they’re just starting to emit flop sweats over access to a Trump White House.
