Angry Liberals Have Been ‘Trumped’ By The Very Media They Trust – Where Is Their Outrage? The MSM Is Quite Literally Driving Them Crazy

Brief Background: From the day President Trump rode down the escalator and announced he was running for President, the media has lied, misrepresented his statements, selectively edited his comments in video clips, and generally set themselves up as direct opposition to a Trump presidency.


This was acknowledged back in December 2015 by the liberal progressive website Salon, as a Puerto Rican professor took the media to task for lying about the then-candidate Trump’s announcement and his comments about Mexicans. Professor Martinez highlightedoutlets such as NYT, TIME magazine, Associated pressCBS News, L.A. Times, Fortune, Hollywood Reporter, Huffington Post, Washington Post and Politico, all misrepresenting, and lying to their audiences, from day one.


By the end of that detailed and sourced article, by a professor that admits he was not only a Bernie Sanders supporter, but had also voted for Barack Obama, he concluded “Most unauthorized immigrants are good people. But still, the media wrongly blamed Mr. Trump for their own misrepresentations.”


That pattern continued throughout the primaries, and the general election, and continues today. The liberal establishment media lies to their viewers, raises their hopes, then when those hopes are dashed, more and more liberals get angrier and angrier…. but not at the media that continues to lie to them.


Remember, the day of the 2016 presidential election the media was telling their audience that Donald Trump had no chance of winning, and that continued right up until Trump hit the magic delegate number of 270.


After the election NBC’s Chuck Todd admitted, publicly, that journalists lied to their audience throughout the whole election cycle by not reporting, or downplaying how much Hillary Clinton was “hated” in the heartland.



“If we sort of were straight-up honest and blunt about hey do we understand the level of hatred that’s out there and you know, all the Hillary for Prison signs that are out there, we certainly would have at least made the viewer know, hey, you know, she’s not well-liked in some places in this country in ways that’s times 10 when it comes to Trump,” he said.



Later in the interview Todd continued:



“What do I think we did wrong in this election? The biggest thing is we didn’t tell the stories of all Americans,” Mr. Todd said. “We told the stories of coastal Americans. And ultimately, that’s like the larger trust issue.”


“We were more likely to do a story about the Dreamer that might get deported with new policies than we were about the 19-year-old opioid addict who feels hopeless in Rolla, Missouri. And, I’m not, I don’t pick on Rolla, Missouri, it’s, my point is that we just, we did not equally tell those stories very well, right, and, we were not, that is an out-of-touch issue.”



They lied. They deliberately chose to downplay stories and attitudes, while they continued to pump up their followers to expect a Hillary Clinton win in November 2016.


WHERE IS THE LIBERAL OUTRAGE AT THE MEDIA?


Democrats, liberals and the media, all collectively melted down after the election results were announced, some media pundits humiliatingly did so on-air.


They were blindsided because for nearly two years the media had lied to them, but liberals were not outraged at the liberal establishment media, they instead started attacking Trump supporters, the “deplorables,” and President Trump himself. In fact they blamed everyone but the media.


Again, the pattern has been repeated for a solid 19 months, as Washington Post manages to capture in the short video below from over this past weekend, titled “Pundits keep (wrongly) predicting the end of Trump’s presidency.” The description states “Nineteen months in, pundits are (still) predicting the next crazy event will be a ‘turning point’ in Trump’s presidency.”


When we reported in late July that mental health experts confirmed that Trump Derangement Syndrome, which they label “Trump Anxiety Disorder,” was real, we made note of the fact that the experts that were cited, spoke of the “intense consumption of media coverage of this presidency is making some people’s Trump-related anxiety worse.”


The liberal media and their constant dire, end of the world, Armageddon-like Trump headlines, along with the long list of actual fake news articles, is quite literally driving people crazy.


Between the dire headlines, and the roller coaster of emotions as the media predicts the end of President Trump’s presidency, time after time, just to see it fail to happen, we are noting a massive increase in anger, nastiness, as well as liberals repeating the initial “fake news” stories, without acknowledging or even knowing those stories have been debunked, retracted, have editors notes explaining the story wasn’t entirely true or was “unintentionally” misleading.
