The Kind of Bullshit the Media does that clearly shows a bias

https://www.alternet.org/new-fox-ne...8-midterms-loom



This site goes into a lengthy and detailed diatribe about how more Democrats, than Republicans, are extremely interested in the 2018 midterm elections. They are heavily implying a major shift in the Power between parties.


However, they fail to mention that the key battleground states have far far fewer raw numbers of people and that the incensed Democrats come from the most populous locales in the US (LA, NYC, etc.).

If they decided to put even a tiny bit of geographical nuance into their polls, they'd reveal, most likely, that these numbers reveal little if anything about the influence that poll will have on the election.


Anyway, this is the type of bias-bullshit that people are getting tired of the Media:

77% of Americans think Major Media Outlets report fake news:

62% of Americans believe the Media is Bias:

This is why I have no problem with CNN facing consequences for Jim Acosta acting a fool. They will cry over it, but I don't care. It wasn't an isolated incident.

Sorry, the key "fact" that tied my whole point together was the fact that the largest cities have a ton of democrats and they are highly represented in those polls compared to democrats in battle ground states like Wyoming.

Honestly, they may have had more Democrats reporting into that poll from LA than all people reporting into that poll from Wyoming, if we are to really be honest. And we all know how pissed LA Democrats are over Trump.

I understand. They need anything to convince themselves this blue wave is a for sure thing. I mean the head of the DNC just said a socialist was the future of the party.

Diane Feinstein did not get the endorsement of California Democrats. Despite the voters of California pretty solidly throwing behind Feinstein.

I think finding out Elon Musk is one of the top 50 republican donors is just the icing on their shitty cake.
