Regarding Da Trumpster bashing on CNN this weekend... some thoughts.
Having only recently started watching Fox news occasionally, as well as other cable news networks, I’d have to say Fox News does not particularly support President Trump. To my eyes, they simply don’t go out of their way to report negative news concerning him, as CNN clearly does.
I could say this is only my opinion, but I’ve read articles referring to studies (Try Pew) that show the major networks are at least twice as negative regarding Trump as any other president…. ever. The Washington Post notes that it’s more than 90% negative across major networks. In that study, Fox came up right at 50/50, which may look like bias only when compared to news outlets that are running 90/10 negative.
9 times out of 10, CNN says negative things about Cheeto Man. Now, if you knew someone who publicly dissed you 90% of the time, would you even talk to them?
I'm gonna give Trump a pass on this one. He has some obligation (in my mind) to have clarity and transparency regarding his actions as President, and the media is a conduit for that. On the other hand, he's not required to work with people that spit in his face and kick him in the balls while acting like he is supposed to shut up and take it like a little bitch.
Everyplace else in our society, people like that are called bullies and assholes.
