American Television News Sucks In Large Part Because They Don’t Understand How Their Own Medium Works
To listen to Donald Trump speak, you’d think he had no idea how to speak English. Whatever lie he’s trying to convey can’t survive the whirling word salad of death spewing from his bloated orange pie hole. He’s a liar who can’t get that the rest of us won’t buy into his lies because he…

Dear MSM – Giving The Benefit Of The Doubt Is Not Journalism
It’s not a stretch to say that at least 90% of our Main Stream News Media has failed miserably in their reporting on Donald Trump. From not doing their initial homework on Trump (as Fusion GPS did when first hired to do oppo research on Trump by the Washington Free Beacon – research that convinced…
