    I watched CNN this morning right after the Trump Vet presser

    Weird. Because I just turned on the local Fox affiliate (Q13 Fox News) and they showed a blurb of Trump whining about how the press is out to get him, because they exposed his lie about when and how much he had claimed to have donated to Veteran's groups.

    I guess Trump doesn't like his lies exposed by the media.

    NPR leans left on social issues. They did their best to tear down Bernie Sanders though, just like most media. Essentially they're a form of corporate media. Trace their funding and it's one perecenters. I don't watch much PBS, but it's probably similar.

    NPR nor PBS are rarely conservative. PBS does an actual good job of reporting and letting you decide. But I'm sure at least 2 or 3 fucktards on this thread will disagree with that.
    NPR's flagship national programming is liberal mostly through omission, rather than overt or covert pontificating. Liberal viewpoints on a story usually get slightly better sources, because those sources are who NPR reporters know. Righty cultural stories get far less coverage. DerGolve's chart shows why. They know their audience and revenue stream as well as any other media outlet.
    Local stations are a different story.
    I listen to a lot of NPR. National Public Radio includes news and their news coverage is as unbiased as there is available. Morning Edition or Marketplace, for example.

    Obviously, some of the programming outside of "news" is opinion-based media, like the Tavis Smiley show which has a obvious point of view. Or some of their entertainment shows, like Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

    So, in short, NPR news is neither liberal, nor conservative. But their programming can lean towards the left.

    HTH. ;)

    Weird how when the media disagrees with a conservative, it's liberal media bias. When the media disagrees with a liberal, it's just cause liberals are wrong.

    Did you see Trump read each recipient and the amount of the donation he paid them? It's certainly more than you will ever pay to a veteran or veterans organization, right?

    ... and since you seem so concerned, why no outrage that Bernie and Hiliary have donated jack shit to a single vet?

    Fuck you are stupid and gullible.

    Were you born this stupid or were you involved in some type of horrific accident that has diminished your faculties? I'd feel somewhat sympathetic if it were the later. Me thinks you too much enjoy the "More free shit" mentality and gulping that mindsets throat yogurt. That along with a $15.00 an hour living wage for complete fucking morons worthy of nothing greater than flipping a burger makes me hope that your little pecker is incapable of the necessary penetration required for procreation.

    You're the "...stupid and gullible..." individual here (BTW, "...and..." could have easily been supplanted by a simple /).

    HTH

    Im hearing there's been a significant metastisis of Troll accounts lately.

    Still slow at grasping concepts I see.

    The issue isn't how much he gave. The issue was that he gave all that AFTER he had claimed the he gave all that money. He was just covering his ass with the fact checkers.

    And as for Hillary, I hate her as much as I hate Trump. They are both lying sacks of shit.

    The only reason I may vote for her, is that I'd rather have a (D), any (D), choosing our next supreme court justice. Our court has been too right wing for too long. Any court that says corporations have the same free speech rights as individuals is fucked up.

    I hope that isn't your sole motivation, because Hillary Clinton appointments are not going to change that. In fact they're only going to reinforce that fact.

    Now if you're talking Bernie, then I get your point. But Hillary Clinton is more of a puppet to corporations than even Trump is.

    I like the dishwater blonde early on CNN. Carol Costello, not so much. Her teeth are fucked up.

    Fox has hotter newsbabes.

    Erin Burnett says fuck off.

    Need to update for her new Hillary hair style, which is as terrible on her as it is on Hillary.
    Like the hairstyle matters one bit.

    She is on record as being against corporations having free speech on the same level as people. Granted, she could change her mind, but I suspect trump is in favor of the Supreme Court ruling. But I'm not a single issue guy, I like a liberal court for many reasons.

    Grasping at straws. The fact is that Trump raised a significant amount of money and donated it to veteran organizations. That's a fuck ton more than can be said for Hildabeast or Bernie.
