Role of the Media

I didn't agree with any of it, but Knight just made the best and most convincing argument for Trump that I've ever heard. Impressive.

I also like that he didn't need to post a million shitty conspiracy links to do it.

I just love the feeling of MDMA's mouth on my dick. If you only want to take the tip, then I guess we can't party. Bummer, because MDMA and I are gonna have a barn burner.

If you are analogizing mdmh's praise of your post to being balls deep in his mouth than your dick is even smaller than your posting style suggests. Sounds like the tip is pretty much it.
 
Obama: We Have to Change ‘Wild West’ Media Landscape
Pittsburgh (AFP) – President Barack Obama on Thursday decried America’s “wild, wild west” media environment for allowing conspiracy theorists a broad platform and destroying a common basis for debate.

Recalling past days when three television channels delivered fact-based news that most people trusted, Obama said democracy require citizens to be able to sift through lies and distortions.

“We are going to have to rebuild within this wild-wild-west-of-information flow some sort of curating function that people agree to,” Obama said at an innovation conference in Pittsburgh.

“There has to be, I think, some sort of way in which we can sort through information that passes some basic truthiness tests and those that we have to discard, because they just don’t have any basis in anything that’s actually happening in the world,” Obama added.

His remarks came amid an election campaign that has seen Republican candidate Donald Trump repeat ideas and take on key staff from right-wing media outlets.

They also come at the end of an eight-year presidency in which Obama has been plagued by false scandals over his place of birth that have forced him to play media-critic-in-chief.

For much of that time, Republicans and Democrats — which their own media sources — could rarely agree on even the most basic facts to build a debate.

“That is hard to do, but I think it’s going to be necessary, it’s going to be possible,” he added.

“The answer is obviously not censorship, but it’s creating places where people can say ‘this is reliable’ and I’m still able to argue safely about facts and what we should do about it.”

Here's the problem with this narrative. Your argument is that the the people who are most informed, the media, of the events going on - are overwhelmingly in favor of Democrats and Hillary. There is no other reason for their supposed bias.

 

Give us a reason then.
 

It's the most obvious. List the other reasons.
 
The big question is why aren't conservatives in media donating to Trump.
