Just watched Kellyanne Conway on Hardball. She ran on nonstop and barely got challenged. Now that she is Trump's campaign manager, we are going to have to hear this annoying human being for two and half months. The first I saw her was on Bill Maher's show and I had to use fast-forward when she started speaking.

(47,430 posts)I've seen this happen with him before. To his credit, there was a time when he refused to do his show because of a right-wing radio host that was scheduled. On the downside, however, he caved later on and interviewed her, clearly not happy about it.

(10,014 posts)Tweety could hardly keep up with her. Then, he had an absolute fit about the Iran-money "connection" and no one could talk him down. It is amazing how many MSNBC talkers give advice to Trump and his creepy team on what they should say about Hillary to bring her down.

The only person I've seen cover Trump's fake medical letter on TV is Rachel, and the letter is so obviously a very bad fake, that she couldn't even manage to talk about it seriously because it's actually very hilarious. I don't think I've seen her laugh that much in a segment in quite a while.
And every fucking Trump rally gets a "Breaking News" banner? WTF is up with that? I can see how people might actually believe Trump's lie that "Hillary is low energy" simply because you'd never even know Hillary is having rallies if your only source of news is the television.

They will do what they need to get their gravy train on....
that is what Journalism is about these days....how much campaign ad money
they can pick up every 4 years.....while not giving a F*ck about the Nation
and its people! The reporters don't mind doing this as they know they will get a fat paycheck
one way or the other, and that is all that is relevant to them.
Meanwhile, Trump can tell the media to kiss his ass and that they are corrupt and
everything is rigged, and they will call him their master as long as he will be handing over that 80 million any day now...
Gawd....how I hate the Corporate Media!
