Isn't that more of a gossip/sensesionlism, rather than bias? Given the track record of the guy, it even seems plausible. Besides if a senior aide to the most important person in the country says that the president said racially explosive stuff, isn't that worthy of a report? You label her crazy. May be you are right. But the same crazy person was the inside person for couple of years and was also paid $180K. Sure it makes them opportunist/immoral/backstabber. Crazy? I don't think so.

For the most part all of mainstream newspaper's articles are "correct". The bias with them is what they choose to report on and how often they report on it. When they report to the front page an alt-right rally with more reporters than alt-righters but barley provide a section for the violent antifa protesters there who assaulted reporters at the same rally that is bias. Or when they nonstop report on the Parkland school shooting where 17 people where killed and following protests but report on the Orlando nightclub shooting were 50 people where killed for a week.

  One could argue that the alt-right rally from last year was very eventful, hence the huge number of reporters present at the current one. And I didn't read full details about the rally, but I do know out about the skirmish between antifa and the alt-right. Also Fox news reported about it extensively. So what's your point? Are you saying that there's a liberal/progressive bias in media?

    > Are you saying that there's a liberal/progressive bias in media? yes Here are some more examples, they report for weeks on Gazans violently protesting and attacking the boarder and sympathise with the Gazans, but when was the last time that you heard about the ongoing Darfur genocide? When Obama imprisoned illegal immigrates in separate cells based on age and gender, the media parley said a word, but when Trump did it... How about a CNN reporter admitting that the Trump - Russia scandal is a nothing burger?

      How come you are not complaining about Fox News bias? Obama tan suits/Dijon mustard/flag pin/Bengazi/her emails etc

        Because you never asked... But sure, I also think that Fox news has a conservative bias. When I said that I thought that MSM has a liberal bias I was going by the majority. I did not mean that EVERY MSM has a liberal bias.

        >Because you never asked I don't have to. I can clearly see that you are just a right-wing whiner. I am pretty sure you enjoyed the frivolous bashing of democratic president, but now complain about the same thing when it is dished out to the republican president. Your comment history is self evident.
