RLLD 4,275 Posted August 21 I agree that politicians lie, all of them of course. What we really need is media that calls it out. And right now we have a rather partisan media establishment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If y'all could stop crying long enough to open your eyes, you'd probably see that he's actually doing some really good things for the future of America.

It might be hard to do a study, but if we look at things like the russian hoax, inflation, bidens cognitive decline, crime....we see that on the big things that really matter.....Fox reports the truth more often.

The only outlet that seems to be doing well is Fox, due mostly to them lying less than any other outlet. Foxnews is off the charts with bias. Lies, who knows how many, lies of omission..endless. And just dumb coverage. Todays lead story is about a "Mob of 100 bikers in Dem run city". 20 yr olds or so on their bicycles. No one hurt, just some traffic nuisance. There is no reason to run this "story". It is not a story. Its Foxnews slapping a smearing headline so their moronic mouthbreathing readers can get some Dem bashing high.

But by way of example, I have no doubt you could pluck up some falsehood Trump has uttered, as we likely could with any politician. But will I care? Probably not, unless its something tangible....like the Russian Collusion hoax that cost us so much money and impacted the Trump presidency, or inflation that we will spend the next decade fighting, or Bidens decline that appears to have allowed his staff to run amoke....

At no time did I suggest Fox news does not have a bias ,instead I affirmed it from the start. They also lie as does the rest of media, it just so happens that in recent years, the rest of media has been worse.

The jury is still out on the impact of the tariffs as Trump has kept postponing and advancing the effective dates.
