Politico = former Washington Post reporters = Trump-hating centerpiece of the 93% anti-Trump Liberal media
Politico posted an article not approving of something Trump is doing. Wow, I'm shocked.
There was only a y'know, 93% chance that would happen.
Or to be fair, the 93% mark was reached only by CNN (i.e., DNCNN) and NBC. The average for all the media was 80% negative Trump coverage, and only 5% positive.
The media's hatred for Trump knows no recent historical parallel. Though comparable data don't exist, our guess is today's Trump hatred outstrips the deep media loathing of Richard Nixon during his first-term "honeymoon" in 1969. Even the Washington Post's Bob Woodward, often credited with helping to take down Nixon, advised today's reporters to "stick to the reporting" and accused them of "binge-drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid."
This is why much of the reporting — even from the leading lights of print journalism — has been so shabby and unfair. Both the Post and the Times, for instance, have used unnamed sources and even the supposed content of documents that they've never viewed as the basis for major revelations about Trump in recent days. They've let their raw hatred get the better of them.
Such a media environment is dangerous for American democracy. We don't expect the big media to show Trump love, but is simple fairness too much to ask?
Apparently so. Instead of fairness, they've colluded with progressive Democrats on the "impeach Trump" movement. Expecting basic professionalism from the media, sadly, seems to be too much.
