Takes issue with media bias in favor of Trump
Friday’s Voice of the People included a letter by Candi Vezina, who stated the media should be unbiased in their reporting.
That’s the reason I give very little of my listening time to FOX News and the conservative networks.
I’m sure you remember when FOX’s “motto” was Fair and Balanced?
Well, in 2017, they dropped the “Fair and Balanced” and went to being the Trump News network.
I know of no way that a news network can defend a pathological liar like Trump by telling the truth.
And, of course, all the other conservative networks are going to defend Trump.
I just glance at them occasionally to hear what propaganda, smear campaigns and denigration of other people they will undertake to make Trump look good.
I know of no better way to determine what I listen to than this editorial by The Washington Post: In Trump’s America, guilty is innocent, lies are truth, traitors are patriots, and the white evangelicals will continue to cast no stone toward Trump.
