Our beloved media gave the convicted felon yet more free airtime to campaign after the verdict.
They let him repeat, yet again, his completely made up nonsense lies about the whole thing being a disgrace, rigged, "conflicted" judge, etc.

with a digression for some reason into xenophobia about criminals coming across the borders because what's a Donnie rant without at least some bigotry.

I flipped around channels so I may have missed it, but it seemed to me that they never really challenged this preposterous claim. They just give him the airtime to say whatever he wants. It's not even news, because they then repeated his claim that the trial was rigged and said he said basically what he had said every single day of the trial.

So why air it 15 times or whatever?? I know, I know, because the first rule of msm is must promote Donnie.

How is it that they can't bring themselves to say that literally every defendant at trial claims to be innocent and quite a lot of them insist they're being railroaded.

The fact is Donnie has given no real reason to think he got treated in any way worse than any other convict. But the media cannot bring themselves to say it's the same story. He's just a criminal. Why can't they treat him like one?

They buried Hillary over a non-crime they could even bother to charge her with. Donnie's now got 34 felony convictions with many more counts pending in 3 more trials, on top of corporate fraud, rape, and defamation x2. When will they give him the Hillary treatment???

I did hear one reporter ask him if he was going to drop out, but I didn't hear any follow up like that afterwards.

Bragg and Merchan made this news happen, not Trump.

Dearest unblock,
Your "beloved" media is the only reason Biden isn't already in an orange jumpsuit.

Our beloved media gave the convicted felon yet more free airtime to campaign after the verdict. ...

My, my, another admission that DU-folk regard MSM as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Dem Party. And believe that what the MSM air and publish should be Dem-Party-approved.

As partisan as the MSM clearly are, they recognized that Trump's reaction to the verdict was as much a valid news story as the verdict itself.

Beloved media? According to almost every public opinion poll over the last few decades, the collective media conglomerate is less trusted than a used car salesperson.

To paraphrase Spicoli in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High", the media are bunch of fags!

I guess they will have to go back and trust their very own Nads for all of the intrepid reporting of the news.

That is a disturbing level of cognitive dissonance, even for the DUmp.

Notice what’s absent from that post: any attempt to refute Trump’s so-called “baseless claims”. If you take issue with Trump’s claims, hey, the floor is yours!

The fact is, the media doesn’t refute his claims, because they can’t.
