    I'm convinced the media wants Trump to win exclusively because he makes them lots of money. They made a killing during the Trump years just by reporting on the live status of the dumpster fire.

    They haven't made as much money under Biden, so they're undermining the fuck out him in favor of Trump.

    Classic capitalism. Profit > Truth. Profit > Democracy.

      The first thing that Convicted Rapist Treason Trump and his Neofascist World Order will do is shut down the free press. Idiots.

        What's this free press you talk about? They are all mouth pieces of the state, who are mouth pieces of capital.

          What's this free press you talk about?

          The Guardian. Reuters. Associated Press. WP. Los Angeles Times. Mother Jones. TheHill.com

          They are all mouth pieces of the state

          Then how come they do hit pieces on Head of State Joe Biden?

          Oh wait…you assumed we are talking about Russian press. In America things are very different.

              That’s the illusion of free press. Any journalists not towing the state line are no longer journalists

              Hardly any journalist in the US is towing the line of the head of government. If anything they all compete to deny things that Biden is totally right about. It is Russia you are thinking of.
