Harvard Study Reveals Huge Extent of Anti-Trump Media Bias

[superbeets]

[FONT=&quot]A major new study out of Harvard University has revealed the true extent of the mainstream media’s bias against Donald Trump.


[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Academics at the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy analyzed coverage from Trump’s first 100 days in office across 10 major TV and print outlets.



[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]They found that the tone of some outlets was negative in as many as 98% of reports, significantly more hostile than the first 100 days of the three previous administrations:[/FONT]

The academics based their study on seven US outlets and three European ones.



In America they analyzed CNN, NBC, CBS, Fox News, the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal.
They also took into account the BBC, the UK’s Financial Timesand the German public broadcaster ARD.




Every outlet was negative more often than positive.



Only Fox News, which features some of Trump’s most enthusiastic supporters and is often given special access to the President, even came close to positivity.

Interesting aspect to the arguments by Trump supporters complaining about elite media coverage - and then citing a Harvard study. /1

They correctly note that the media examined *except Fox* are hugely negative toward Trump. But then they make a weird logical pirouette. /2

They assume that *everyone is wrong or inaccurate or biased but Fox*.Why would the outlier be right and everyone else be wrong? /3

Maybe the other media are reflecting a reality, and *Fox* was the one injecting an agenda? Also, one other point. /4

The media is hostile to Trump. No arguing that. But that doesn't mean news about incompetence and self-inflicted wounds is always bias. /5

"Republicans, inside and outside the administration, accounted for 80 percent of what newsmakers said about the Trump presidency." /6

When things are bad, the news is bad. Yes, there's bias. But as usual, Trump's biggest enemy is... Trump. /7x

Woodward: The Media Is ‘Binge-Drinking The Anti-Trump Kool-Aid’ [VIDEO]

Veteran journalist Bob Woodward said Friday the media’s eagerness to fight President Donald Trump is getting in the way of good journalism.
Too many members of the press are “binge drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid,” he said on MSNBC’s Morning Joe.

“Stick to the reporting,” he said, adding: “One of the realities here is that we’ve got an old newspaper war going between The New York Times and The Washington Post. It’s good. and some very powerful stories. At the same time, I think it’s time to dial back a little bit about because there are people around … who are kind of binge drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid. And that is not going to work in journalism. Let the politicians have that binge drinking.”

The fact someone disagrees with your political beliefs is never a cause for hate. And those who do hate are simply revealing their ignorance
