A new Media Research Center analysis found that the three major network evening newscasts only gave President Donald Trump’s booming economy and U.S. trade nine minutes of coverage since the House Democrats’ impeachment push began on Sept. 24, 2019.

These people want the economy to crash and burn, so that it can be rebuilt into full-blown socialism, with the government (a socialist government) owning and controlling everything. Saying that the free market economy is purring like a kitten is contrary to their goals.
“The Fourth Estate is a segment of society that wields an indirect but significant influence on society even though it is not a formally recognized part of the political system. The most commonly recognized part of the fourth estate is the news media, or press.”
The Fourth Estate has joined the Democratic coup attempting to overthrow this Republic.
If it DID crash and burn, the networks would go wall to wall...
Theirs is an extremely shabby product and it’s like they’ve never even heard of someting called quality control.
I’ll never forget the late summer of 2006, when the MSM was pimping big-time for the Democrats and their election narratives - the 6:30 evening news on all channels started their broadcast for 8 weeks straight with the price of gasoline (which was due to oil which at that time was a very high $70/barrel)
It is nothing but HATE MEDIA...
CRITICAL LIFE LESSON .
“Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”..
There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new communist regime. In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked: “Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said that it was no joke. “You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free food”.
“When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence”. “They get used to that and start to eat again.
You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side”. “The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again. You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd”.
“Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.”
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America . The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements, medicine, drugs, etc., while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time as the government forces us to participate in many of these programs whether or not we want to.
One should always remember two truths: There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself. If you see that all of this wonderful government “help” is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America, you might want to share this with your friends.
God help us all when the gate slams shut!
Quote for today: “The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those that vote for a living.”
They’ve been predicting economic collapse since before Pres. Trump was elected and many times during his first three years in office. So if they don’t cover it at all, it’s a good thing…and it obviously makes NO difference to the booming economy.
Too bad. But Republicans shouldn’t rely on a strong economy alone because Democrats have ways of messing it up and escaping blame. There are plenty of other great issues. Such as transgenderizing kids, teen hoods running the high schools, crime, seizing guns from law abiding blacks, Democrats supporting terrorist governments, excessive immigration, etc.

Good one.
Just like their favorite phrase, which they mostly mis-use: hate speech.
But in this case, it’s not being mis-used. Hate Media is a good description of what they are.
Partisan Media Shills update.
1) Old political saying used against GOP Bush: “
“The economy, stupid” is a phrase coined by James Carville in 1992. It is usually mistakenly rendered as “It’s the economy, stupid.” Carville was a strategist in Bill Clinton’s successful 1992 presidential campaign against incumbent George H. W. Bush.
2) New Political saying about Trump economy going top speed to benefit minorities and others including record low unemployment and record high stock levels:
So what. Big deal.
