Presidential Pollsters’ Political Contributions: Heavily For Hillary Clinton
Heat Street ^ | 11.04.16 | Leon Kutti

Recently, the Washington Post, Yahoo News, Time, the Columbia Journal Review and a host of other news organizations reported on a Center for Public Integrity study detailing the federal campaign-finance filings of journalists, reporters, news editors, television news anchors and other donors working in journalism. The study found that 96 percent of those contributions – or about $382,000 – went to the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, while the remainder went to Donald Trump.

But as we enter the final days of the most heated presidential campaign in modern U.S. history, not only major news agencies, but also their presidential polling partners, find themselves under increased scrutiny.

They contributed $27,500 to Republican candidates, committees and causes over that same period of time.

The current chief executive officer of Survey Monkey, Zander Lurie, contributed $72,200 to Clinton campaign and $30,700 to the Democratic National Committee in 2016.

Landslide for Trump would once and for all put a fork in both the MSM and the polls. Seems unlikely but would absolutely be thrilled.

And that isn’t even counting their in-kind contributions.

More undeniable proof that the polls are nothing more than propaganda.

“Landslide for Trump would once and for all put a fork in both the MSM and the polls......”......

Like you, I too would love to see a landslide vote for Trump but my instincts tell me the demodummies will cheat, steal, buy and find any way thy can think of to give the throne to Hitlary. She’s still alive and EXPECTS to win the crown.

Absent total destruction the media will not be affected at all

The media is the progressive movement and is all powerful

The total must be destroyed if america is to be America again
