My job used to be such that I could listen an hour or two from both political views and then dig for primary sources. Now I pick and choose the stories that interest me and then go digging for coverage and primary sources. Knowing reporters have been replaced with commentators means not only am I getting bias in how things are reported, but what gets reported as well.

For example, when hundreds of trucking companies have shut down, liberal news sources lay the blame at President Trump’s feet, while a conservative site like Fox News simply reports it, but you have to know where to find it because negative financial news is not going to be front and center on Fox News. Die-hard Trumpists will scream fake news but the US Department of Labor reported the number of closings. Businesses that examine trends in the trucking industry and why trucking businesses open and shutdown report that is a variety of factors that have affected the industry, with the changes to the tax code and the trade war with China being part of a myriad of factors that have had a major impact on smaller trucking companies.

One’s news cannot simply come from what is watched on the networks.

Thanks. Can you give an example of what you consider a “primary source” please?

I would probably give a cogent response to this if I saw the relevance of your post/link to what I posted.

No…

To be fair, Lemon wasn’t the one doing the mocking.

Also, how do you put Hillary’s deplorable comment up against President Trump’s comment that Never Trumpers and Democrats are human scum? I have a guess but I would like your take.

we know. it’s rather obvious. but you should try to engage in some actual discussion/debate

you could learn something

oh good you are coming around

To what? He did…end of story

I do from plenty of people…lots of smart people on here.

me too!

when they engage is discussion etc

ha. no he didnt. it’s totally a “story” for sure.

a perfect narrative for the blind drive haters.

Sure…when you start maybe you’ll offer some good debate

i already did. trump didn’t mock a disability. and i am ready to defend that.

but you are not ready to dispute. because…

you cant

I have in other threads. I wont with you again. It’s a waste of time.

i know debate/discussion can be hard

great way to bring your F- game

Well one difference is Trump was right.

Nailed it.

all this confirms what i realized in the 80’s. cnn is a joke.

difference is now everyone sees it (although many dont care) and they are 100x more joke
