Media Bias

The Fox News program covering the meeting between Donald Trump and Megyn Kelly spoke volumes to me about media bias.  These folks work for media organizations that are invested in the status quo.  They want to identify any candidate who might change the status quo so they can attack them. It happened with Ron Paul and Rand Paul and they tried it with Donald Trump and he beat them.

This Megyn Kelly special included 4 other Liberal politicos.  It was like watching MSNBC on Thorazine.  

Trump’s reaction to Megyn’s questions at the first debate was appropriately hostile.  We all blamed Fox News for asking banal questions and decided that Fox News lost the first debate because of their banal questions.  We were stunned that Fox’s questions were gamey, trite and disrespectful of the viewing public. 

Ted Cruz nailed it in the next debate and was very specific about their inappropriate questions.  After that, the questions at the following debates became more relevant.

Liberals will need to be convinced that our federal government can no longer afford to be Santa Claus to the world and that the $20 trillion debt must be paid off without raising taxes.  Therefore, the federal government will need to follow the Constitution and transfer unconstitutional functions back to the States.   

Donald Trump’s advantage will be his unpredictability.  That will be invaluable in turning around our foreign and domestic policy and reigniting our private economy.
