No-Shame Media



Media Matters chronicles media untruths, bias and abuse. And much of what they report concerns the unprincipled, unprofessional, ineffective, partisan (pro-administration) media outlets that use smear, innuendo, and disinformation to manipulate, rather than inform, voters. Doing media watch, and reading about it all the time, you don't ever get used to it. But this is really appalling.

The "news" is still pummeling Hillary and she's dropped out of the race. And the sexism is getting old. During the primary campaign, Hillary supporters waged numerous unfair accusations at Obama supporters for this. But it was and is the media who have done this stuff. And it really should stop. Is this not the 21st Century? And are we not purporting to show the world an example? We're not? Oh, yeh, right, not with those running the media and this administration. It has come to this.
