CNN host Don Lemon says LA Times poll not up to the network's standards. MSNBC should follow suit!

This new total right wing biased LA Times poll has Rump ahead by 7, yet MSNBC keeps touting it as a valid sign of how much momentum Rump now has, no matter how totally different it is, in Rump's favor, from other recent polls. This has been the pattern with LA Times polls for as long as I can remember. Therefore, I call BULL SHIT! MSNBC has sunk to a new low in journalistic standards and needs to be called on it.

Last night a Rump idiot tried to site the poll as a true indicator of how great his candidate is doing. Lemon called him on that. I don't trust any of these MSM polls, but some are more biased than others.

It appears to over sample Trump support by 4-5% at least.
