Press coverage of Trump in first month of office: 88 percent ‘hostile,’ says new study

[blackhawk]

We don't really need a study to know how hostile and biased the media is towards Republicans and Trump in particular they threw away any pretense of being fair and objective long ago.

No they didn't. The press give him a hard time because he's a deplorable douche. It's not their fault he's a fuckwit..

Very impressive display of stupid.

Ummm how does one measure "hostile "? That's totally subjective ! I call bullflop on this "study".

Have they got on their hands and knees and performed oral sex on him like the last president? I would consider that a change in attitude that didn't exist for the last president.

You're the one making shit up. What has the mainstream press lied about with Trump? I can post lie and lie after lie Trump and his deplorables have rambled on about.

You just hate him because he won.

I don't hate him. However he is a despicable human being.

Do you make it a habit of taking things personally? I never said that to you, and yet you respond as if I did.

Poor Tricky Trumpy

Having the press just kick him around for no reason.

After he was so nice to them and all........

You just hate him because he won.

My personal feelings have nothing to do with it. The hatred toward the MSM from Trump's campaign is being paid back in spades. Just like Tricky Dick.

Paid back? Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Seemed pretty clear to me and the majority of Americans that the media were in the bag for Clinton. Hardly journalistic or transparent.

The following are your words.
The press give him a hard time because he's a deplorable douche. It's not their fault he's a fuckwit. It is not the job of the press to give someone a hard time because of their personality. To state that is the reason for how they cover Trump and even worse to possibly believe it is stupid of the highest order. Good day to you.

'Journalism' Schools are clearly producing militant Communist/Progressive Democrats in droves. They dominate the American MSM. It's Fake News.

Wrong, they helped get him nominated because they calculated that anybody else would have beaten the witch from Arkansas. After his nomination, it was non-stop Trump bashing like it is now.

For anyone who has seen the movie Casablanca (if you haven't seen it I highly recommend it, maybe the greatest movie of all time), the media response is similar, you can guess who the media is:

"I am shocked, shocked! To find out gambling is going on in here!
Casino Worker: "Your winnings sir"
"Oh, thank you very much"

Press coverage of Trump in first month of office: 88 percent ‘hostile,’ says new study

There was no press honeymoon for President Trump during his first month in office. A meticulous new study by the Media Research Center finds that 88 percent of the broadcast news coverage of Mr. Trump and his team was “hostile” during the first 30 days of office.

The coverage was intense and plentiful. The study, which analyzed both tone and content for evening newscasts on ABC, NBC and CBS, found that the “Big Three” networks produced 16 hours of coverage on the new president and his staff. That is over half — 54 percent — of their total coverage for the month.

“Our measure of media tone excludes soundbites from identified partisans, focusing instead on tallying the evaluative statements made by reporters and the nonpartisan talking heads (experts and average citizens) included in their stories,” write Rich Noyes, research director for the conservative press watchdog, and fellow analyst Mike Ciandella.

“In their coverage of Trump’s first month, the networks crowded their stories with quotes from citizens angry about many of his policies, while providing relatively little airtime to Trump supporters.” the pair noted. “And the networks’ anchors and reporters often injected their own anti-Trump editorial tone into the coverage. ‘It has been a busy day for presidential statements divorced from reality,’ CBS Evening News anchor Scott Pelley snidely began his February 6 broadcast.

“A new American president is always a big story, but TV news is obsessed with the Trump administration — and not in a good way,” they observed.

Maybe if I have some time this weekend I'll look around, but I wonder how this report compares to how they treated DumBama after his first 30 days? Bet it was 88% favorable.

How do you quantify that? If jimmy kimmel makes a joke about the Don , is that hostile ?

Conspicuous by its absence is the fact that had the biased MSM delivered the same as they did with petulant former President Barack Hussein Obama, there would never have been an issue.
The MSM created their own problem but are far too self-important and arrogant to recognize that each time they published an article trashing Donald Trump, they were adding more voters to Republicans and Donald Trump. From recent surveys, they still do not have a clue.

Swing-voting independents are twice as likely to trust President Donald Trump’s administration than to trust the media, according to a new poll by Fox News.

Swing voters are the voters who put Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Not at all, if you laugh uproariously about a joke Jimmy Kimmel tells about President Trump, it is a hostile joke. If you laugh the same way about one about Hillary Clinton, it is not hostile.
