Evidently your endless anti  Trump diatribes/agenda ,- ad nauseam. Have clouded your perception of what's alls going on. The press/mainstream all are pro Trump: Because Trump is a $ spectacle.

 

Thanks for posting an earlier article that pretty much reinforces those in the original OP here:

How the Real Mainstream Media Bias Favors Donald Trump

It’s not liberal vs. conservative. It’s called “inversion of expectation,” and it poisons coverage every single day.

July 9, 2024

 

Watching and reading American media, a certain bias becomes immediately evident. Stories proliferate about pundits and a handful of Democrats calling for President Biden to drop out of the race, but they are almost never “balanced” by pointing out the massively larger number of Republicans (many now “former” or “never Trump” Republicans, but Republicans nonetheless) who are calling for Trump to drop out or be defeated.

 

Why would this be?

 

Why wouldn’t the American media at least try to balance their coverage of two “flawed” candidates? After all, Trump has been disowned by the former head of his own party (Michael Steele), something like half of his own former Cabinet officials (including his Defense and Intelligence officials), and even his own former vice president.

Lawrence O'Donnell has been banging on about this phenomenon for a while.

 

I think the multiple reasons you posted above from O'Donnell as to why Trump too often gets an unchallenging media pass for his nonsense are spot-on correct.

 

That's what made ABC's real-time fact challenging of Trump during the debate so refreshing.  CNN calculated that Trump made more than 30 false or unsupported claims during the debate.

 

I think the ABC moderators specifically challenged him on just a handful of those, but at least they challenged him on some!

More useless Trump bashing.

“I have concepts of a plan”- Donald Trump

 

DJT on health care after being president for 4 years when he promised it in two weeks,  and 3 more years to think about it as a disgraced loser,  and now convicted criminal felon.

 

75 million deploarable dupes will vote for him in November anyway.
