I really want to come back at you, but I hate the lack of creative opportunities in my job.

Well, it is important to have all the information. Is he Mormon, by chance?

He's a Democrat, so I would have assumed not.

That's real? Why are farts hilarious?
I mean, the article isn't wrong.

But there's no bias in media! And why would it matter anyway!

We live in a world where it's acceptable to "punch nazis," in which nazi = whatever you want it to mean. So of course a little crusading as a journalist is nothing, compared to assault.

I mean, now that we know these bad numbers were Obama's, we obviously have to withdraw the story.

I think it's hilarious that the press was tripping all over themselves to point out that Trump was tweeting out a photo-shopped picture of his head on Rocky's body a couple of days ago, and now the Hong Kong resistance is using that picture to demonstrate their appreciation for his support.

There's a video link that's been on CNN's front page with the other headlines for weeks now.

It says:
He voted for Obama and Trump. Here's where he's at today

Not sure what is in the video as I have zero interest in watching it, but it's quite curious that a news organization would leave it in the headlines for so long.

Kind of a "duh" study, but Fox News influenced Rs to challenge vulnerable Ds.

I would argue this is factually incorrect, and doesn't paint the study as bipartisan...
“Fox News is a particularly interesting case to study since it was the first partisan cable news network
The MSM has influenced politicians long before Fox, ask Japan.

I'm glad CNN or MSNBC hasn't been trying to influence votes.

No idea who this Steve Krakauer is, but he's not wrong about this segment on CNN.

"CNN isn't biased!"

Washington Post under fire for suspending a reporter who posted negative Kobe tweets after his death.

ABC News claims to suspend reporter for mistake in Bryant story.

It's laughable to think this is true. The shit the MSM gets wrong because they rush to judgment is constantly piling up. Hell, they've been caught making up shit, but this is the first time I've heard of someone being suspended.
