Revision as of 20:17, August 26, 2017
If we added every example of media bias against Trump, this would be one of the longest CP articles. The media thought for sure Trump would lose the election, and it clearly disliked Trump even in its "objective" and "factual" reporting. --1990'sguy (talk) 23:03, 28 January 2017 (EST)
Snarky MSM headlines
Here is an interesting Washington Examiner article: [1] It describes how the MSM has used snarky news headlines to effectively criticize Trump. --1990'sguy (talk) 22:47, 17 August 2017 (EDT)is not

- I strongly disagree with your edits. As I explained in my edit summaries, your edits are ridiculous, citing MSM sources (The Guardian, NYT, BBC) and avoiding the conservative media. They buy into the MSM narratives and misconceptions -- everybody knows that Twitter statements are not official policy and that it was only an announcement, but the MSM made it seem like Trump was making an executive order on Twitter and found another way to criticize him. As for the Charlottesville info, Trump's response was clear -- of course, the MSM is apparently incapable of realizing that. --1990'sguy (talk) 16:06, 26 August 2017 (EDT
- The fact that you "strongly disagree" is probably a good reason to avoid editing this article. This is not a list of Donald Trump achievements, this is an objective encyclopedia article, where we avoid inserting individual opinions. What we think about Donald Trump's approach to the media or the media's approach to Donald Trump should be left out of the article. Just state the facts. If you have a Donald Trump source, it can be added. If we are talking about the mainstream media, we should add footnotes to that as well.
- Regarding the tweet, President Trump phrased his tweet as a policy announcement. Any person regardless of their views of the issue would want to know if it was an official decision, so I do not blame reporters for asking for clarification of it. I sleep better at night knowing that the Pentagon will not follow orders delivered by Twitter. Twitter can be hacked, and in a matter of life and death, I don't want America to run the risk of a faked Presidentail tweet. Thanks, JDano (talk) 16:17, 26 August 2017 (EDT)
