She was undoubtedly calling Trump a racist, so there's that. And to edit a previous post, I misspelled Thomas HADEN Church while positing that I couldn't spell Antonio's name. But Wings is still vastly underrated! 1

The replies to Chris Hayes and David Folkenflik are brutal. Assuming they had any self awareness, they might take some of it to heart. 1

All racism all the time Trump's a racist all the time was a big time loser in 2016. Seems they are doubling down on it. If they can't figure out a way to beat him this time they should disband. 1

B-Man Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 THIS IS WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS: One of the fundamental elements of good journalism is “show, don’t tell.” This means that reporting facts are preferred over interpretation or characterizations. But it’s not hard to see why distrust in the legacy media is ever-rising. “Americans blame shutdown on Trump over Democrats by wide margin, poll finds” blares USA Today. Wide margin? The poll actually shows that: When asked, “Who do you think is mainly responsible for this situation?” 53 percent of Americans told pollsters they blamed Trump and congressional Republicans. Three points is a “wide” margin? Moreover, the story’s kicker admits that “The poll of 788 Americans was conducted Jan. 8-11 with a margin of error of plus or minus 4.5 percent.” When the spread is less than the margin of error, that’s usually called a “split” or “close” race. What more, this important fact isn’t revealed until the third paragraph. Given the fact that as many as 25 percent of American adults get their news from Facebook, and given that too many people never read past the headline, this is especially egregious. “Fake news”? No, but “Wrong” news? Absolutely.
B-Man Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 WE, THE PRESS: “Frank Bruni, formerly the New York Times’s White House reporter and now a columnist for the paper, has a long, long op-ed that is unintentionally revealing. It is headlined, ‘Will the Media Be Trump’s Accomplice Again in 2020?’ As though the press were pro-Trump in 2016! ‘We have a second chance. Let’s not blow it.’ A second chance to help a Democrat beat Donald Trump.” Just think of them as Democratic operatives with bylines and you won’t go far wrong. 1

No, but “Wrong” news? Absolutely. I don’t see a link to the article , but if the next closest option was say 35% percent blame dems and the rest blame both, that is in fact a wide margin.

If that's the case would it be fair to say 67% blame the Republicans? In a way i would think so, but I blame both. Not equally. I just blame both.
