7,843 Minutes Of Trump Speaking On MSM - Sanders 3 Minutes - HRC 3 Minutes

These for profit mofo's should not be allowed to use the airways, or cable networks to broadcast this much hate.

"Get a job" crap from the Dumpster. Where, in the factories on China making Trump hats? A-hole.

If Bernie and Hillary got as much air time, and it should be mandatory, Trump would have a much smaller pack of racists following him. Bernie and Hillary would have their messages of hope, and a non white supremacist future for America heard, and people with working brains would have a better idea of the difference between our candidates, and crazy town.

Ain't gonna happen though.

The only thing worse than Republicans is the media.

It really sucks turning on my television, which is how I like to get my news, and see wall to wall Trump Hate Speech Coverage.

This pissed me off more than even the things Trump says.

1. The media is responsible

The media is responsible for the rise of Trump. There is so much Trump on CNN, they should change their name to TNN.

time you turn on MSM it's either Trump or one of their stupid inane commercials. MSM today in the USA is a giant wasteland.

If so, it's shocking and alarming. Do you have a link to something that documents them?

It could be much worse.....

Every time I turn on CNN, or MSNBC (I would never watch Fox) they are talking about Trump. They may actually talk about Hillary or Bernie, but they never show them giving their speeches.

I am referring to actual video of Trump speaking, versus actual video of the other two. Even adding up soundbites, I am sure the actual ratio is close to this.

Trump 48 hours a day.

Sickening.

Hatred has to be built, and construction is moving right along.

I work out 3-4 times a week at the "Y". They have 5 TVs on the walls, all different stations.. nice.. ONE of them is, unfortunately, CNN.. TRUMP is there ALL THE TIME.. Once while I was on the eliptical, he was there for 45 minutes,, !----several times 30 minutes, including today.. it's just sick.

I watch baseball...or the food channel. :&gt )

9. Bernie Has A Powerful Message

You just have to go to a rally to hear it.

The MSM is completely silent.

They don't want him to win and take all the billionaire pac ad money out of their bank accounts next cycle.

Virtually all of his events are streamed live and available on replay. They're not hard to find. I have watched and/or listened to one or more just about every day for the last couple of weeks or so.

The Trump circus is once again live right now on MSNBC, CNN and Fox. It looks like he played them like a fiddle by canceling the event in Chicago last night.

10. Trumps entire speech was broadcasted

today on MSNBC. I heard it. I kept waiting to hear about Hillarys speech and yes I heard about 3 minutes and never heard a word about Bernie. We can never ask how ever did people support Hitler we are watching how it happens right before our eyes. It is so surreal how much promotion Trump gets from the media. We need to take back OUR airways. These are intense times.

happen. He is hoping to get more haters riled up. He has started the GE already by getting ALL the media attention just like he did in the Republican Primary. He is purposefully holding rallies in progressive areas where he knows there will be huge protests (Chicago, Dayton, Cleveland) rather than out in the burbs or rural areas. He thinks these protests are helping him. Trump: "look at the crowds. Look at all the media. They know who to follow."

Actual time given to actual candidates giving their actual campaign speeches.

Not pundits, supporters, or opponents.

Trump gets his speeches televised.

The other candidates do not.

Anything to attract eyeballs, and sell advertising.

Zero fairness.

Today's MSM.

We are electing the most powerful person in the world & they are shoving Trump down our throats rather than ignoring this man spewing so much hate - which is what they should be doing!

There should be a discussion on every "news" station about the differences between the candidates. There is none.
That's one of the reasons I enjoy watching Townhalls instead of debates.

It scares me.
