    American journalism is collapsing before our eyes


    Donald Trump may or may not fix his campaign, andHillary Clinton may or may not become the first female president. But something else happening before our eyes is almost as important: the complete collapse of American journalism as we know it.

    The frenzy to bury Trump is not limited to the Clinton campaign and the Obama White House. They are working hand-in-hand with what was considered the cream of the nation’s news organizations.
    The shameful display of naked partisanship by the elite media is unlike anything seen in modern America.

    The largest broadcast networks — CBS, NBC and ABC — and major newspapers like The New York Times and Washington Post have jettisoned all pretense of fair play. Their fierce determination to keep Trump out of the Oval Office has no precedent.

    Indeed, no foreign enemy, no terror group, no native criminal gang, suffers the daily beating that Trump does. The mad mullahs of Iran, who call America the Great Satan and vow to wipe Israel off the map, are treated gently by comparison.

    By torching its remaining credibility in service of Clinton, the mainstream media’s reputations will likely never recover, nor will the standards. No future producer, editor, reporter or anchor can be expected to meet a test of fairness when that standard has been trashed in such willful and blatant fashion.
    Liberal bias in journalism is often baked into the cake. The traditional ethos of comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable leads to demands that government solve every problem. Favoring big government, then, becomes routine among most journalists, especially young ones.

            OMG, really? Turn on the news and all you see is an orange orangatang. Bring up your home page and you see the same thing. Come to the politics section of your favorite betting site and see Trump thumpers. 24 hour news channels will show Trumps speeches in their entirety. I haven't seen a full speech from Hillary yet.

            Author needs to put on his glasses and turn up the volume, because the stupid fuk has no idea what he's typing about.

              spoken like a true idiot by the admitted sheep who had to make up the term "my truths" to cover up his lies. The post above is a prime example of all three; idiot, sheep and liar.

                Actually moron, if you could take the donalds nut sack out of your mouth for a couple seconds you would see rkelly is 100% correct. The media is bending over backwards to hand the election to Trump and he is fumbling at every opportunity.

                              Nope. They all run 24/7 Trump coverage. Clinton is staying quiet, let him lose the election by himself. Once again she shows why she will be a great first female President. Brains, courage, ethics, she has it all. Trump is a buffoon.

                                  The Trump coverage of which you speak is them showing only his gaffes. The Clinton coverage they have is them fawning over her, singing her praises.

                                      American journalism collapsed during GOP Primaries by not vetting Drumpf. ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, FOX Noos were all sucking his c@ck for ratings with 24/7 wall to wall coverage.

                                        If that is true, wouldn't his lead be about 20 points by now? This election has already been decided and Her Thighness is pre-ordained to be the next POTUS. I'm going to be investing in Depends because her presidency will be a 8 year advertisement for them. "See, even the President wears our product!"

                                                The largest broadcast networks — CBS, NBC and ABC — and major newspapers like The New York Times and Washington Post have jettisoned all pretense of fair play. Their fierce determination to keep Trump out of the Oval Office has no precedent.

                                                Indeed, no foreign enemy, no terror group, no native criminal gang, suffers the daily beating that Trump does. The mad mullahs of Iran, who call America the Great Satan and vow to wipe Israel off the map, are treated gently by comparison.

                                                By torching its remaining credibility in service of Clinton, the mainstream media’s reputations will likely never recover, nor will the standards. No future producer, editor, reporter or anchor can be expected to meet a test of fairness when that standard has been trashed in such willful and blatant fashion.
                                                Liberal bias in journalism is often baked into the cake. The traditional ethos of comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable leads to demands that government solve every problem. Favoring big government, then, becomes routine among most journalists, especially young ones.
