Sorry, I'm not following.

Why will lefties "...have their knickers all in a bunch."?

Haven't Lefties been calling for documents to be declassified?


Lol. Trump will declassify docs that prove you don’t want any unclassified.

Not these documents, they are saying that it is just another conspiracy which is a pretty ridiculous charge considering that it involves the Attorney General of the United States and two special investigators. The documents will allow of the AG and investigators to take a closer look at the origin of the surveillance on the Trump presidential campaign to see if it was legal at its inception.

The left for too long has had its way with our national media and they feel that any lie they put out there will be taken up by the press and obfuscate the underlying truth. The left in my opinion is trying to exercise an Orwellian reality on this country.

If the left has "....too long has had its way..." with the media, how is it that conservatives seem to have ready access to all sorts of information that makes Liberals look bad?

He’s still in shock Trump is his President. Then also cannot admit Mueller proved lefties to be certifiable liars.

He’s a depressed individual.


Awwww. You obviously have no idea as to my state of mind, but thanks for playing! I just laugh at what you people will swallow. Until something, hell anything that the wingnuts claim will bring down the house, I just have to smile and chuckle.

Thanks and praise be to Fox News...

People aren't stupid Chris. There is video of Democratic politicians telling the world that illegal aliens should not be crossing our border, that they take away jobs from Americans, put a burden on our finances, medical systems, education and so on. This was said by both Clintons, Obama, and a few Senators and Congressmen and women. Yet when Trump says the very same words he is classed a racist. Funny how that works isn't it. That is just the illegal immigration part of what is going on.

Why is it that you don't see the previous videos of Democrats and then ask yourself, Hey, why are they picking on Trump for saying the very same thing. Better to keep the lying Democratic agenda going, huh?

I did not say that the information was not out there, but you do understand don't you that when you talk about conservative media, just about the only media with the exception of a few liberal outlets like the intercept that are willing to print or report on the other side of the stories that breaks with the liberal interpretation of events... The you have the mid day and late night entertainment programming that has an obvious liberal bias. Do you really believe that this programing has no influence on public opinion?

Fox may lead the cable news in viewership, but their viewership is only a fraction of the likes of ABC, NBC, or CBS, and then in print we have what have been considered the gold standards of years gone past, NYT and WaPo, none are particularly unbiased anymore....

I would think this something that you would already understand, and as I have found you to be honest in the past your question does surprise me a bit.

Thank goodness for alternative media! I think the truth is that there are hundreds of more media outlets than there used to be, and if you actually want to find out the truth, you can find it today. You just have to weed through most of the "fake news' to find it. And the vast majority of "fake news" is coming from the liberal news sources. The trouble is that many people only seek out the media that confirms the false narrative that they already believe in, instead of seeking out the truth.

As a Conservative, I am thrilled that we now have a significant voice in news sources. In the old days, someone like Hillary would have gotten a free pass and become President because the news people would have kept secret all her nefarious dealings. This is what happened with John Kennedy. The guy was smuggling prostitutes into the White House to have sex with for Christ's sake! The news people all knew but successfully kept the public from knowing it for decades.

I do have to plead guilty to the fact that I don't watch ABC, CBS or NBC.....or any television.

I don't own a television....never have.

I do confess that I get the majority of my news from NPR.
They lean heavily to the left but I've heard some conservatives interviewed as well.

My "problem" with finding "the truth" is that it's become more finding information that conforms to the way I think more than the "TRUTH".

Do I believe this is True because it's true or do I believe this is True because it reinforces what I believe?

This is something I constantly question when I read/hear news.

I understand, I think that Fox's opinion and entertainment shows without a doubt lean heavily to the right, there can be no question, but one thing that Fox does better than even the national networks is separate their hard news division from opinion and entertainment programing. I find their hard news to be far superior and less biased than any of the other networks, but even their hard news makes decisions on what will be covered which has from time to time given an indication a bit of bias.

If Trump is walking around with a wart on his face they will report it, they also will report on his successes where other networks will either not report on them or attempt to spin them in a negative light. What is missing from Fox is reporting on the president and the republican party in the worst light possible, that is why the network seems to be so hated by the left.

You don't have to let it be that way.

Good for you! I also applaud your not having a TV. You can accomplish so much without it!

Lefties never seek truth. They only seek confirmation bias.

Evidenced by two years of obvious lies that all lefties here stated was true without even considering truth and fact.

This is what Nancy gets for pissing Trump off!

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-gives-ag-barr-authority-to-declassify-documents-related-to-2016-campaign-surveillance

"President Trump on Thursday night issued a memo giving Attorney General William Barr the authority to declassify any documents related to surveillance of the Trump campaign in 2016."

And the biggest problem with that is: there's no oversight on WHAT he declassifies, and whether or not he slants/skews the opinion he derives from them - - he has already shown himself to be t's AG instead of the US AG.
