Of course you'd believe that the electorate were swayed by the "detailed extensive efforts and actions by Russia to interfere in the 2016 presidential election in favor of Trump."

 

But then again, only those with an agenda against trump or brexit would believe this rubbish......

 

How exactly did they do this?  Facebook?

 

Or do you prefer to ignore the fact that most of the media supported hilary and remain?

 

 

Care to back up that ludicrous claim with evidence?

 

No, I thought not.

uh,,,, you mean you do not think the media was in favor of hillary winning?

 

here is a clue

You need a lie-down, you're having trouble keeping up.

 

I was refering to Brexit, which is why "remain" was in bold and "Hillary" was not.

I didn't type it, I simply highlighted it. Seeing as you're the only one who couldn't work that out for themselves then still can't man up and admit your mistake says all I need to know about you - never your fault, always someone else to blame, dog ate my homework know-nothing.

enough of your lies. He has never "supported" the IRA, he was supporting the ordinary people of Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK - and indeed our soldiers, by looking for a way out of tha conflict. Something that Thatcher was doing at the same time but she did it secretly, via Willie Whitelaw. Perhaps The Queen should be branded a traitor and locked up, after all she met with the same people that Corbyn did.

I assume that you refer the meeting of HM and McGuinness during her visit to the Republic of Ireland in 2007. She did this to help continue improved UK-Eire relations after the signing of the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. This is the only meeting HM has had with any of Corbyn's lamentable contacts - and that was for the sake of peace in the UK and Ireland. 

 

To say that she met with the same people that Corbyn did is false and misleading. I think the law still exists that says that you should be the one to be locked up. I hope so, anyway.

I entirely agree with your conclusion, these circulation figures can't be dismissed, and if you add up the readership numbers Leave is way way ahead. The snowflake bleating by Brexiteers that the MSM is biased against them is shown up to be just a paranoid delusion. Then I was listening to John Humphries on BBC radio 4 this morning, a definite leaver. You did clearly say "Of the top ten" so the Independent and the Guardian being pro remain were not commented on.

If you were at all capable of following this thread you'd know that I was responding to the claim that the majority of the media supported remain in the lead up to the referendum on EU membership.

 

You can't keep up yet you cast doubt on my mental faculties? Sort your own head out first.

Naaaa……looks like yours is a much more urgent problem!!

 

1) I never mentioned newspapers in a post to you so why are you posting your garbage back to me??!!

2) Theres no explanation of what your cr*p little table actually means or how it relates to Brexit - please explain what the numbers you’ve posted actually are and send some proof that it relates to brexit - perhaps then Ill stop thinking you need a check up!!

I guess you're deliberately being obtuse for dramatic effect as you have nothing else to contribute. 

 

The table is not "mine", neither is it is not garbage. I explained the relevence to Brexit quite clearly already. It was in response to a post claiming that the vast majority of the media supported remain. Newspapers are part of the media, they are relevant. The circulation figures are relevant. Their position on EU membership is relevant.

 

I don't know how much clearer it could be, as one of the regular contributors here puts it "I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you".

So I made a slight error in one of my posts, I'll not lose any sleep over it.

 

Can you explain how that error prevented you from making an informed, intelligent response in relation to media bias in the run up to the referendum? Better still, don't bother explaining, simply give the subject your best effort.
