    The Washington Post was kinder and more respectful in its obituary of the leader of ISIS than it was of the brother of the President

    They are pieces of ****, and only morons with liberal brains, redundant I know, would think otherwise.

    This dishonest headline from the NYT is yet another example of why "trust in the media" in the US is at an all time low

    Tucker Carlson had a segment showing the liberal media literally repeating the word “dark” last night. I think this is more than the DNC.

    I think you are right and wonder if we can actually stop them.

    They're repeating and reinforcing the Biden campaign talking point. What I find kinda remarkable is that the party that says we're all gonna die of Covid and that the country is dominated violent racism is supposedly light and positive and that the other party is dark and negative.

    I dated a WH reporter in DC for awhile. Every day, she got bombarded by emails, texts, faxes and even hand-delivered material from both sides. Absolutely non-stop. Every single day, including Sundays.
    So that is not really the question.
    The question is, why do they almost unflinchingly run with the ones from the Dems?

    They run with what they want to be true. They want Joe Biden to look good, because they like Joe Biden, so that makes them look good.

    She was so much younger then. I think it was the 1890s.

    I dont think people really like Biden
    Reminds me of McCain or Romney - if thats your party, you hold your nose and pull the lever. These types dont really get folks enthused. Dole fits too

    As has been stated on here before they are not voting for Biden, they’re voting for Harris and company.

    See if you can spot the different manner CNN covers these two events

    50-50 IMO. Cause while I agree half are voting against trump I think half are giddy at their perceived prospect of a socialist opportunity.

    Why does Rather think he is in a position to judge anyone?
    Didnt he forfeit that?

    Because, like stupid *** athletes and celebrities with adoring fans, Rather still is credible to all the other dishonest media. Until people stop clicking on and watching his crap, he will still spew ********. Funny, for some people to show how stupid his thoughts are, it requires a click, which keeps him going.

    Yep. I saw him interviewed by the Texas Monthly guy once, and TM guy basically just shrugged it off in 2 seconds as if nothing substantive had happened, a fake Republican conspiracy, even though it is what got Rather fired.

    My dad went to high school with Rather, who was younger. He said nobody liked Dan back then. And this was said at the height of Rather's popularity, not after his fall from grace for forgery.
