Clearly biases, with a liberal slant....


Just watched The Choice (2016). And while I'm firmly in the middle (don't believe in either party), was surprised to see how biased this episode was.

It's all about how strong Hillary has been, how smart she is, with a long list of friends. With Trump, she show his early life, skip college, than than all his business failings. Yeah, they show how Trump Tower was successful, but found it odd that no one really defended him, it was all about how he wasn't business smart, how he was mean, etc.

As I said, I don't like either one, so this isn't a defense of one or the other. But it's another clear sign that our media is biased, and no longer cares that we know....

Not sure if I'll watch again, but if I do, it will be with a curious eye towards that bias.

It was equally scathing. They showed how Hillary is basically a coldly calculating politician, her penchant for secrecy, how she is all about positive campaigning, unless someone does it better than her then she'll do almost anything to beat them. It also effectively showed a link how she thought being Secretary of State would be the right step stool to another presidential run, because it would cast her into a new light; but how the administration was running foreign policy from the White House that she was disappointed looking for a clear cut success of her own. I think it's easier to definitely make her sympathetic than Trump.
