To all employees of MSM...

I realize that you have a living to make and that you have bills to pay, mouths to feed
mortgages to pay...I get it..

But as it stands now, you have made this Presidential Race exactly as your bosses requested.
A Horserace..

But did you ever think that what you have done and continue to do... CONFLATING trump with Clinton, might result in wreaking Havoc in your own lives.. Example? We all know how vindictive and crazy this man is,....Theres a good chance that he’ll go after any news outlet which he feels “treated him unfairly”,to the point where many of you might end up being unemployed... I don’t know exactly how it might roll out, but it could happen.

Mark Cuban ( and he should know) has been all over the airways warning us that Trump will reek havoc on our economy...throwing our markets into turmoil.

So think about it people...even though you’re not part of the election coverage, if Trump is elected you stand a good chance of having your own world turned upside down..

Not all their employees are that bad.

Some struggle against the tide such as Lawrence O'Donnell.

His talk the other night about the NYT (or was it the NYP) using "stretching the truth" instead of calling Trump's claim a lie was excellent.

It's always the same with you - why not the biggest blowout of all time? That would make a good theme. People tuning in to see just how bad Donald Deplorable is going to lose.
