But Trump is a bigot, a misogynist, who is appealing to the worst angels of humanity. While Clinton for all her flaws is better than that. And while it's true that the media is now attacking Trump more than Clinton, for a long time they let him get away with murder, treated his campaign as infotainment, and didn't hold him accountable enough.

On Tues. Sept. 27, FRONTLINE’s acclaimed election-year series, “The Choice,” returns — going behind the headlines to investigate what has shaped these two candidates, where they came from, how they lead and why they want one of the most difficult jobs imaginable. From veteran FRONTLINE filmmaker Michael Kirk, “The Choice 2016” will investigate formative moments in Clinton and Trump’s lives through interviews with those who know them best, providing in-depth, trustworthy reporting and powerful new insights at a moment when voters are being bombarded with conflicting partisan stories about each candidate.<br />Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09630890163958807048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-1924074473724880142016-09-23T15:08:32.654-04:002016-09-23T15:08:32.654-04:00i can appreciate your great attempt at seeing thin...i can appreciate your great attempt at seeing things in a balanced way. that's very Canadian and much appreciated.<br />:)<br /><br />i can't imagine, however, why thedonald would be 'disliked'... could it be that he is a lowly meat vendor, pretending to be presidential? i'm tired of the laundry list of thedonald's misdeads but i'd like to point out their connecting threat - his tendency to lie, promise and not deliver. if that's not dishonest, then i don't know what is.<br /><br />and then there is the media - the media's failure lies less in calling anybody anything ('cause, you know, they are a classy bunch) and more in failing to withhold attention to the talking boiled ham... the only appropriate place for that mouth to be is in a diaper which should be changed often to prevent lip rash<br /><br />so it comes down to this: who, in this election, is honest?<br />cheers luceformaluceformahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10772782713133612037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-771497812909565972016-09-23T11:26:22.697-04:002016-09-23T11:26:22.697-04:00LOL!

But neither is...Trump is not fooling anyone, Simon. But neither is Hillary. As someone aptly put it, this is the election of the "deplorables" - the candidates, not the voters.<br /><br />Or as some other obviously non partisan, independent voter had put it: we are being asked to choose between the disliked (Trump) or the distrusted (Hillary). <br /><br />According to one survey, words that came to mind when thinking about Trump were: bigot, racist, unpredictable, corrupt, etc. For Hillary, the words were: corrupt, liar, dishonest, entitled, etc. You see the drift? :)<br /><br />Or, as I had mentioned before, Assange had also very aptly said that it was between choosing between gonorrhea or cholera. It appears that many independent voters are choosing to catch neither because the polls are showing that both Hillary and Trump are each being supported by less than a third of the independent voters. And they are both being supported by only a minority of the millennial voters.<br /><br />And, contrary to the claims of Hillary supporters, the media had been dumping on Trump for quite a while. Here is Greenwald (a Pulitzer prize winning journalist) suggesting that non Hillary media is even being bullied: "All of this means that any journalists reporting negatively on Clinton are instantly and widely bombarded with criticisms denouncing their work as illegitimate .....". <br /><br />And also this from Greenwald too: "The reality is that large, pro-Clinton liberal media platforms — such as Vox, and the Huffington Post, and prime-time MSNBC programs, and the columnists and editorialists of the New York Times and the Washington Post, and most major New York-based weekly magazines — have been openly campaigning for Hillary Clinton."<br /><br />Here is the link for the above quotes from Greenwald: https://theintercept.com/2016/09/06/the-unrelenting-pundit-led-effort-to-delegitimize-all-negative-reporting-about-hillary-clinton/<br /><br />And, if memory serves, Stephen Cohen, Prof. Emeritus at NYU and Princeton had said that the media had been calling Trump a lot of nasty names that would not have been acceptable and would have caused outrage had they been applied to another candidate. Not defending Trump here (he does deserve some of those names), but let us be fair and recognize that the media has been in Hillary's corner in this election, eh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-13131093827789902372016-09-23T10:25:29.008-04:002016-09-23T10:25:29.008-04:00the only creepier thing i saw lately other than th...the only creepier thing i saw lately other than the picture of thedonald selling steaks (gaaaawd! does the american common denominator get any lower?) is that of steviethegreatcanadianeconomist smiling for a looong, looong time. <br /><br />somebody should tell these phoneys that we can tell that they are wearing no clothes.<br />phooey!luceformahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10772782713133612037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-86508283632842138352016-09-23T10:22:17.545-04:002016-09-23T10:22:17.545-04:00Thank you for another great post.
