in how they've given the tRumpster a pass, which now we're reaping the sour results.


Fcuk them! I'd have more compassion if they had done their jobs when it mattered.

Boycotting their coverage and shows.

The damage is and will be done, and no one can calculate how much we'll all lose, in lives, in the environment, in health and qualify of life.

The TV and cable media in this country are collectively responsible for enabling this to happen. My disgust for them knows no bounds.

Edward R. Murrow must be spinning in his grave.

The media is the reason that trump is president. Giving him millions of dollars in free advertisement during the primary allowed him to get the nomination. That gave him a 50/50 chance of becoming president.

It's only because the convenient pivot is no longer there and everyone is already bored and exhausted by the Dons craziness when he is the actual main event instead of the side show.

I am glad too, I guess, not by much. They are only doing it now because they think calling him a liar gives them better ratings than not calling him a liar. It's that simple. We need to fix the system so ratings are not the only measure for journalists. When that is the case, they have no choice other than to become entertainers.
