The media, with their mischaracterizations and lies were a big part in trump's victory.

I refuse to be a participate as a viewer in their sorry excuse for "journalism". It doesn't exist. It is gossip, innuendos, rumors, anything to incite, facts are not important.

They can all go to hell as far as I am concerned,. They are contributing factors that are making America a hellish place with the way they covered this election, and news in general. Half truths, and distortions. Except for Knight Rider, they were willing accomplices in our invasion of Iraq based on lies, and are responsible for over a million deaths. They also will be responsible for a lot of the suffering that is likely to occur in the next 4 years because of their shoddy reporting
