They sucked for a long time. And they did such an abrupt 180 that they do leave themselves open to charges of being manipulative. The truth didn't matter for the greatest part of this year- only ratings.

(32,975 posts)And, once again, I am at pains to point out to the suddenly alarmed popular media people that us dirty fucking hippies were warning you about this all through the primary season. But like Les Moonves said, covering the dumpster fire was just so fun and profitable. Who knew it would spread to their cushy corporate offices? NOW they realize at last that Trump has gone too far.
Please learn a goddam lesson this time around, you ninnies.

(2,412 posts)The media has made a god out of Trump. They have a lot to answer for! This nasty little man would be nothing without CNN,NBC and the Guardian have been throwing sensationalist red meat on Trump for way too long!
The media has a lot to do with it. Since he is so outrageous, they covered him so much and that inflated his ego.
