Non-biased news in America has gone the way of the penny
loafer. Unbiased and impartial news reporting and journalism in the United
States is as rare as hen’s teeth. Each news source you follow is slanting the
news story towards either the Republican Party or Democrat Party manipulating American
minds.
The US is a two-party crony capitalism system. This article
explains the news bias in the US that must be considered when absorbing any information
on the internet, radio or television.
The democrat-leaning news sources will always tout former
President Obama, Hillary Clinton and progressive and liberal ideals as the
greatest thing since sliced bread while denigrating republicans. At the same
time, the republican-leaning news sources place President Trump on a pedestal praising
every decision as genius. The republican media touts conservative ideals (even
though most republicans no longer believe in fiscal conservatism as evidenced
by the obscene Keynesian spending over the last nine years by both parties)
while bashing democrats. America has become very ill and divided.
The cable news networks practice news sensationalism to
attract eyeballs since advertising fees, the mother’s milk of profits, are dependent
on viewership. The lip gloss beauties reading the teleprompters display long
sexy legs that attract viewers. One pair of shiny legs is longer than the next
pleasing the majority of male viewers. Roger Ailes, that ran the Fox News media
empire for many years but had to resign in disgrace, then croaked, professed
the mantra that “legs equal viewers.”
Botox is on full display at the news networks with talking
heads sporting foreheads tighter than a garage band’s snare drum. The female
news readers don beautiful custom-tailored dresses at over $500 a pop that
highlight their attributes. A first-year marketing student will tell you that
“sex sells.” The news networks manipulate minds into loyal democrats or
republicans.
News is entertainment nowadays when it used to simply
provide level-headed facts. All news is biased in America. News organizations
do not even attempt to hide it anymore. The teleprompter readers comment at the
end of each news story reinforcing the network’s bias. It is standard fare for anchors
to praise, or denigrate, each news story depending on the networks bias.
President Trump calls out the ‘fake news’ from CNN, MSNBC,
the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, NBC), public television (NPR and PBS), New
York Times, Washington Post (owned by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos a democrat) and
others on a daily basis highlighting the exaggerated negative bias. The
democrat-leaning media is relentless in denigrating Trump and hopes he fails
and is removed from office. America used to support the president no matter what
party is in the Whitehouse but not anymore. The country has changed.
There are always two sides of the coin and President Trump
conveniently ignores the fake news spewing daily from Fox News, Breitbart, Rush
Limbaugh, Mark Levin and others that denigrate the democrats while praising republicans
and the decisions made by the orange-headed leader of the Free World.
Interestingly, most Americans prefer the middle ground and
are very disturbed at the direction the country over the last couple decades.
Independent voters are on the rise as many US citizens are fed up and do not
want to be associated with either party and the political baby games. Many
Americans do not realize that they are actually libertarians in their thinking wanting
fiscal responsibility concerning government budgets and tax policy and at the
same time do not care what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms.
But enough of this windbag front matter; all you want to
know is what the media bias is in America and who are the major players so
without further ado lets expose the nasty truth about the United States media.
You may decide on different percentages of bias after
reviewing the lists below but the most educated guess is that about 70% of the
news in America is biased towards democrat, liberal and progressive minds while
30% of the news is biased towards republican and conservative thinking.

Upper-middle
class professional employees such as attorneys, doctors, engineers and
accountants, and high-wage earners, tend to favor the right.
The Midwest
and Rust-Belt cities, the Heartland (the center of the United States often
referred to as the ‘fly-over country’), lean republican.
Assessing
the news bias above yields 70% of media in the democrat camp and the other 30%
in the republican camp. America is no longer united and instead has become
tribal. Both the republican and democrat ‘tribes’ place their party ahead of
what is actually good for the United States. This sad new face of America spells
trouble for the United States going forward. Tribal allegiance rules the day.
President Obama
had a free ride during his eight years in office since 70% of the media was
always on his side praising his decisions and covering up any mistakes. On the other
side of the ledger, for example, republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was
ridiculed daily by the liberal press during the 2012 presidential race; he never
had a chance. It is like playing a football game where the referees are paid
off helping one team win. Republicans are at a disadvantage since the news
coverage is weighted towards the democrats.
President
Obama was the first media selected and elected president in America’s history.
Obama never cared much about what he said off the cuff since if he did
misspeak, the liberal press would always protect him.
President Trump has a tougher row to hoe since only 30% of
the media is supportive to his agenda while the other 70% denigrates the president
every 10 minutes. Like it or not, many Americans must accept Trump as president
and give him a chance for the sake of the country. President Trump won the
election fair and square.
Many Americans receive their daily news from the broadcast television
stations such as ABC, CBS and NBC which slant the news in favor of democrats
while representing republicans in a bad light. The democrats hold the advantage
in the media bias game.
This article changes the way you view the media and news
outlets. Monitor the news sources listed above and the bias will smack you
squarely in the face. As long as you know how the game is played, you can filter
the news and not become a puppet of the establishment republicans and democrats
that attempt to control your mind daily.
Use the above
knowledge to filter out the news bias. Before consuming any news, first read
the byline or reference the lists above to determine which news organization is
peddling the left or right-leaning propaganda. Think objectively and independently.
A smart American declares a pox on both the republican and democrat houses.
