LOL, no you haven't. Like a trump cult member you attack when pushed for facts.

Way to ignore the question about twitter followers.

I look at all the media from huffington post to breitbart, and then i look at what is rational and not rational. Sometimes CNN has accurate news. Sometimes Fox has accurate news, sometimes all the media shows the same news, mostly they show biased sides of the same news and critical thinking helps appraise it. I know that is incomprehensible in your mindset, that pinholes individuals as cultists or free thinkers or whatever other designation you apply to help you feel better about yourself.

As for the twitter followers, i only posted here because if you took msm reports you would think all of trumps followers were these bogus accounts when in fact he had very few both percentage wise and pure numbers compared to the msm and/or pres obama.

LOL, so in other words the MSM is only bias when you say they are,got it. In your previous post #506 you claim CNN is "fake news" ...now it's sometimes,you decide what is rationale and what is not,so to you the news is what you agree with at the time to be real? Thank you for proving my point.

I said "seems like cnn had fake followers for their fake news". In that sentence i don't claim all their followers are fake (that would be demonstrably false) and likewise i am not claiming all their news is fake.

And yes, i do think it is important to use our intelligence and discretion to read, analyze, discuss and understand what is most likely true and what is abjectly false. It is not my agreement that makes it true, but if it is true then i am not likely to disagree with it even if it doesnt align with my political beliefs.

So in short it's not "Media Bias" but your own "personal bias" .

That is so mind numbingly wrong that it is on par with your calling yourself a republican.

Yes i have a personal bias, as everyone on this site does. We are expected to have one as we are rational intelligent humans. The media/news is supposed to try not let personal bias inject itself in reporting facts. The point of this thread, and my point in talking about media bias in general, is that all the major news outlets have gone greatly astray from that ideal, to the point that none of them can, on face value, be taken as consistent deliverers of non biased news stories.
