   Fair enough. Maybe the reporters are just lazy then, if 80% were neutral or positive.

   It's incredible that I don't like uninformed knee jerk reactions? Okay, to each their own. In any case, how much or little I care about it is irrelevant to whether it is an uninformed kneejerk reaction. But hey, however strong I f

    I noticed similar wordplay in coverage of the 2016 election. When Trump or Trump-supporting PACs targeted voters with ads negative on Clinton, it was labeled by the mainstream media as 'voter suppression', whereas when Clinton or
