Highlight:

Hillary has had 113 minutes of network news pre-election coverage, Bernie 10. [View all] AtomicKitten Dec 2015 OP

Surprise, surprise, surprise HerbChestnut Dec 2015 #1

Ah the good old media UglyGreed Dec 2015 #2

C'mon they are all negative all the time. Tommy2Tone Dec 2015 #4

You may be right I don't trust the people supporting Bernie lewebley3 Dec 2015 #35

Hillary has had 113 minutes of network news pre-election coverage, Bernie 10. Tommy2Tone Dec 2015 #3

You know the old trope HerbChestnut Dec 2015 #5

Yet the 2 most covered, Clinton & Trump, are the front-runners. Coincidence? I think not. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #6

Even with Hillary's negative coverage -she surges in the polls compared to Sanders. riversedge Dec 2015 #12

Sure if covering her townhalls, speeches, rallies, and pressers is negative - which it is not. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #13

Well, I only watch the networks which were measured in the article--and until riversedge Dec 2015 #15

The MSM is even sponsoring events with Hillary. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #17

The Media covered Clinton's Congressional hearing and the SOS Email story. KittyWampus Dec 2015 #19

This is specifically election coverage and does not include the hearing. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #20

Bullshit. OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #39

Her private server/email problem is a different issue than the Benghazi hearings. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #40

No it's not. OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #44

Again, the hearing was not included in the survey of campaign coverage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #47

Welcome to DU. OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #91

The wisdom of her *privatizing her email* IS DIFFERENT than focusing on the Bengazi part of it! cascadiance Dec 2015 #96

You can't compare Trump coverage with Hillary's Tommy2Tone Dec 2015 #34

Much of the coverage of Hillary has been negative with a particular focus on the email nontroversy Cali_Democrat Dec 2015 #7

Not exactly. Her campaign coverage was 113 mins and other coverage was 117 mins (separate) Turn CO Blue Dec 2015 #42

I thought the old media didn't matter anyway? Blue_Adept Dec 2015 #8

i believe that is true restorefreedom Dec 2015 #14

Social media is an equal opportunity venue, the MSM has baked-in bias with selective coverage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #16

Many people especially older people still get their news from the MSM. And the "news" they receive think Dec 2015 #24

It's been obvious that the fix has been in. merrily Dec 2015 #9

They're covering Clinton's/Trump's townhalls, rallies, speeches, and pressers - a distinct advantage AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #11

No they aren't. OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #43

Reporting on but not broadcasting of the hearing. Got it? AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #49

The hearing was not broadcast on network news... OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #51

Give me te positive/negative coverage analysis, please Prixen Dec 2015 #10

What shallow reporting. The author ends it by mentioning "headline news" KittyWampus Dec 2015 #18

That's because the congressional hearing was not included in the survey of election coverage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #21

Hillary's campaign message is considerably broader, which merits more coverage. oasis Dec 2015 #22

FFS, that's a ridiculous notion. It's the media's job to provide equitable campaign coverage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #25

Fine, since you've already been informed that it was mostly.... MeNMyVolt Dec 2015 #31

And I've corrected that notion by pointing out the MSM is covering her events in their entirety. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #37

Which is why the media doesn't talk about the real issues Ichingcarpenter Dec 2015 #36

It's all bullshit and fluff with the MSM. Feel-good coverage and contrived controversy. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #38

Useful idiots, Ichingcarpenter Dec 2015 #54

+1000 -- true and well-said! senz Dec 2015 #56

Hillary's campaign message is considerably broader Ichingcarpenter Dec 2015 #26

Incumbent! dpatbrown Dec 2015 #23

Well, 11 hours of that was one Benghazi panel. Plus commentary. pnwmom Dec 2015 #27

Again, the hearing was not included in the survey of campaign coverage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #28

And that time was probably mostly negative... Agschmid Dec 2015 #29

They are covering her events in their entirety. That's a distinct advantage. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #30

MSM= Misanthropic Sycophant Monsters who have the same boss as Hillary, the 1% . orpupilofnature57 Dec 2015 #32

I am off to work now. Have a great day. Cheers. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #33

Is it OK Treant Dec 2015 #41

What is distasteful about the man? [n/t] Maedhros Dec 2015 #45

I'm sorry, Treant Dec 2015 #48

I think it's fair to say that one of this country's most glaring issues Maedhros Dec 2015 #57

And there it is. Treant Dec 2015 #63

Is it an insult to ignore you? Trajan Dec 2015 #61

No, it is not. Treant Dec 2015 #64

Oh the irony. neverforget Dec 2015 #79

I know you didn't ask me, but I'm a little afraid of him. MeNMyVolt Dec 2015 #50

I found his temperament admirable. Maedhros Dec 2015 #58

Well, that's a difference between you and me. MeNMyVolt Dec 2015 #59

Something like that. Treant Dec 2015 #65

Unfortunately, Treant Dec 2015 #66

I hope you hang in here, MeNMyVolt Dec 2015 #69

He tells the truth, no profit in that. orpupilofnature57 Dec 2015 #62

Nah, it's just meme propagation. Maedhros Dec 2015 #67

It's a feature of the system. blackspade Dec 2015 #46

As in it's not a bug, it's a feature. You've got that right. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #73

The Hillary media coverage is overwhelmining negaitive, though. cheapdate Dec 2015 #52

Where is the category on talk show appearances? Thinkingabout Dec 2015 #53

Where is this report? OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #55

The data was obtained from the Tyndall Report for the WaPo article I posted. * Edited for video. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #70

That link leads to the home page of the so-called "Tyndall Report". OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #77

Nonsense. Analyst Andrew Tyndall is respected in the industry of network data collection. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #78

What findings? OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #80

FFS. Read the entire Washington Post article I linked to in my OP. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #81

Hilarious. OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #83

Oh dear, so angry. Why are Clinton fans so angry? Worried about a 2008 faceplant redux? AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #85

Angry? OilemFirchen Dec 2015 #88

Kicked and recommended! This is fucking horrible. Horribly unfair. Enthusiast Dec 2015 #60

It is bullshit and has strangled O'Malley's candidacy in the crib. Damn shame, really. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #72

Hello! It's called ratings Beaverhausen Dec 2015 #68

The MSM are driving the narrative just like they did in 2007 promoting Giuliani v. Hillary 24/7. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #71

Untrue. The networks have a biased agenda. The agenda is poorly disguised corporate propaganda. Enthusiast Dec 2015 #93

Are you surprised? Betty Karlson Dec 2015 #74

Blatant audacity. Breathtaking, really. AtomicKitten Dec 2015 #75

Cynical, in my opinion. Betty Karlson Dec 2015 #76

I see we're back to the "the media is unfair" complaints... brooklynite Dec 2015 #82
