What about the bias of the most watched cable news network in America? Fox. They are virtual state media in prime time. State media is Trump media, propoganda media. And for our president, any media critical of hm is "the enemy of the people". Yet you cannot see the mind set that such a declaration creates in the minds of his followers. Apparently, because you believe it. You don't blame Trump. Yet every president in our history has at times faced an adversarial press. It's part of the function of that free press to speak truth to power. But you do not understand that, I can only assume by now. You don't blame Trump. For you, any press that is shining a light on this presidency really is the enemy of the people. And broadcasting lies and hoaxes, no real light at all.
Yet there's Fox, on your side, incubating narratives, fake news screaming "fake news!" to the masses, "they're trying to take down your president", and on and on the bs flies. To be sucked up. All the while a gangster winging his way and stroking his ego endlessly. But they don't count. It's the liberal media that's the enemy, not Fox, no not Fox, not State Media. Authoritarians need State Media. They don't like the kind of media that looks too close, won't just go away, damn pests. No, let's leave Fox out of this, they're the good guys. Hannity, icon of truth, justice, and the American way.
Fox. The leaders. Where the right wing conspiracy theories that Trump loves have incubated. Fox, where the Deep State bullcrap that Trump and Barr and Hannity and Breitbart as nauseum have all embraced, lives on daily, as the response to any deeper look at Trump. The gangster. That's right, a gansta in the Oval Office. And you don't want an adversarial press. You want the compliant press, friend to authoritarians everywhere, and at all times.
Trump has the leading cable news outlet in his pocket, and you're pissed at the ones actually speaking truth to power. Beautiful. And yeah, I know, you believe the Deep State bs instead, so of course, your bias is just fine for you. And the enemy of the people need to shut up because we have a stable genius at the helm. Of course.
Look at the rest of the story from yesterday's how ya been, Vlad. This exchange just before the smiles over election interference. It's perfect, just perfect....

OSAKA, Japan – President
Donald Trump expressed exasperation with the media in a conversation with Vladimir Putin on Friday and spoke approvingly of the fact that the Russian president does not have the same problems with the media that he has.
The president's remarks drew blowback on social media from critics who noted that journalists in Russia have been killed.
"Fake news," Trump said during a meeting with Putin at the G-20 summit in Japan as journalists filled into the room to cover the leaders' remarks. "You don't have this problem with Russia, We have. You don’t have it."
Putin responded in English, according to a raw video feed of the exchange.
"Yes, yes," he said. "We have, too. The same."
Trump has for years blasted U.S. media as "the enemy of the people." Still, the praise for the Russian president on the point was a remarkable comment for a U.S. president. More than three dozen journalists have been murdered in Russia since 1992, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists
