Why are we ignoring this?

This whole issue with Trump's comments is a freaking joke. It's nothing more than something for the biased media to run with.

I've thought about this. Honestly they have no choice. The paper has to be printed every day. The 24/7 news cycle has to have fodder to run. Hillary is a vault, no press conferences, no sit down interviews, radio silence. Paper still has to run, CNN still has to pundit. So what do they do? They would gladly stump for Clinton but she's giving them nothing to work with. Their only choice is to devote 100% of their attention to Trump. So they have to hang on every word and see if they can make it a story. When he says "thank you guys for coming" at the press conference, is he being a sexist? Is eating fried chicken racially motivated? Is the way he walks microagressive to women and minorities? He mentions 2A supporters and Clinton in the same sentence, that's a call for assassination right? They're doing everything they can to generate news, because right now they don't have much to go on.

They have ample amounts of dirt on Hillary they could keep repeating like they do with Trump. But, those aren't the talking points provided by the DNC.

Exactly. I mean we had the White House speech writer calling the media their "echo chamber". It doesn't get any more clear than that.

I believe these polls are manufactured by Clinton sycophants. Create the poll where Trump voters will say oh well he's gonna lose so why bother voting.

Isn't it funny the DNC had to pay $50 for seat fillers and what's even better, hiLIARy can't even fill up a high school lunchroom. Trumps rally's are filled and thousands of people outside wanting in. Never seen that hiLIARy has that problem.

How many of you have ever been contacted by one of these presidential polls? Who the hell are the people that participate in them? I have never been contacted, not once, and I am old.

I've thought a lot about it, too. The media have to feel important - like they are something - more than talking heads, and most have a very distinct liberal bias and little analytical capacity, so it seems like they are of the "you are with us or against us" mentality. Nixon is a great example; he didn't play their game or agenda, so they hated and vilified him. They could easily turn Bush into a buffoon, but they choose to treat Obama's boorish, immature, misguided behavior quite differently. Carter was putty for them - just depended on the time of month and how the wind was blowing; but Reagan was tough because he knew the business - show business.

Clinton may be trash, but she's closer to their agenda. They are clueless and defenseless against Trump because they don't understand him or how to predict him, so their best defense is a hate Trump campaign that will certainly continue if he is elected despite their best efforts to prevent it. After all, the press don't want to be relegated to just reporting on events.

Well the DNC emails show CNN is apart of the Clinton campaign.

Im sure they (CNN) will have a scheduled debate. Shouldn't the non-partisan Commission on presidential debates step in and tell CNN that there's obvious bias here?

Should but will never happen, they'll probably get Candy Crowley to moderate too.
