Dailynewsbin.com, the ONLY News Site Being "Fair" to HIllary

The Clinton group is eating this stuff up. Comedy gold, my friends. Comedy gold.

Meanwhile everyone on the left has drunk the Bernie Koolaid and is dutifully attacking the woman standing in Bernie’s way. Daily Kos is Bernie Central. The Huffington Post has been known to run twenty stories in a single day, slamming Hillary and praising Bernie: one of their “reporters” – a fantasy novelist named whose name we won’t mention here but you likely already know it – is a full-time Hillary-basher and is so over the top that even other liberals hesitate to quote him.

And of course MSNBC, apparently bowing down to its corporate masters who dislike the Clintons and want to see Bernie compete well against Hillary. Pro-Hillary voices have been driven off the air. Rachel Maddow, once the best reporter in America, has been muzzled. Lawrence O’Donnell can always be counted on to cherry-pick polling data to cast Hillary in the worst possible light. Chuck Todd stages Hillary Hate Central every Sunday morning. Andrea Mitchell hates Hillary so much you’d think the two of them fought over Prom King in high school.

But, while admitting that I have a pro-Bernie bias but having tried to stifle it as much as possible when considering how the media treat the candidates, I've gotta say this is rank bullshit. If you favor Candidate A, you will tend to bask in the wonderfulness of any positive media treatment about A, to the point where you accept such reports as simply unslanted, unbiased news. But when a positive report comes out about Candidate B, or a negative one about A, you take great umbrage. And more importantly, you remember it. Consequently, seen through the prism of your own bias "the media" are being unfair to A.

However, there have been studies of the media throughout this campaign that have objectively quantified positive vs. negative reporting, and have found that Hillary has received by far the most coverage and the most favorable coverage of the Dem candidates (Trump got more press than anybody, but that's because he's a train wreck). Bernie was almost entirely ignored until a couple of months ago, and most of the reporting he did receive was dismissive ("Isn't he quaint? He can't win, of course&quot .

The Daily Newsbin, one of Hillary's propaganda outlets, is laughably full of shit.

What is Daily News Bin? It is a "news" Web site created on February 16, 2015. No one knows who owns the domain, because it was registered secretly using the company Domains By Proxy. Rather obviously, I think, Daily News Bin has something to hide. Daily News Bin claims to be run by Bill Palmer, its "Senior Editor". There is, apparently, a "Bill Palmer". He's written all of two articles (that I can find) for BeatWeek, a music magazine. He claims to be the magazine's editor-in-chief, but if you go to BeatWeek's Web site and try to verify that -- you discover that the "About" page is an attack-page full of viruses that attempts to take over your computer. In fact, that's true of almost every page on BeatWeek's Web site, except for their "Contact Us" page.

When I visited the page, there were four "reporters" at Daily News Bin: Cara Harris, Tim Martyn, Christy Bishop Cricow, Reggie Smith, and Anita Finlay Harris. Martyn, and Smith seem not to exist. The only "Christy Bishop Cricow" I can find with a Google search is an interior designer and sticker manufacturer who lives in Eugene, Oregon. Anita Finlay Harris is a real person, who holds right-wing/libertarian views (she's a regular contributor to the right-wing The Jerry Doyle Show, the right-wing Americans Talk Radio Network, the right-wing Midpoint With Ed Berliner, the right-wing Talk Radio Network, and more). But if you search Daily News Bin for anything she's written, nothing comes up. Nor does a Google search of her name and Daily News Bin.

If you read the articles on Daily News Bin, IMHO it's clearly the site is a poorly written pro-Hillary Clinton site. It does nothing but promote Hillary Clinton. It talks as if Hillary Clinton already won the Democratic nomination for president. Now, Daily News Bin has Tech, Music, and Entertainment sections. But if you go to them, you discover them either empty or full of pro-Hillary Clinton articles.

Their journalists are fake, their news is fake and no one in their right mind takes their propaganda seriously.

All they need to do now is hire SpamDan and littlemissiwishiwassmarterpants and the koolaid dispensers will all be under the same roof.
