Monday, President-elect Donald J. Trump released an update on the Presidential Transition, an outline of some of his policy plans for the first 100 days, and his day one executive actions.
This direct communication effort, if repeated, could likely balance the historic leftist bias of major media as it reaches directly to citizens.
YouTube creator “Freedom Toons” released a video on Thursday that pointed out how the slippery slope of leftist argument is justified. Using two characters, the toon transitions conversation 8 years apart. Starting in 2008 at the beginning of President Obama’s first term, then fast forwarding to 2016, you can see just how leftists have become more bold and open about their stances, where once they were telling us we were paranoid for expecting the worst.

If you still pay attention to national media, the moment Donald Trump became President-elect Donald Trump, you know how leftists took to the streets in protest and on college campuses ran to safe rooms and petting zoos for buttercups.
Their complaints (absent fact and based on campaign distortions) range from Trump being a horrid racist, incompetent and just about any other slanderous lie that can be made about a person. However, many of the accusations thrown at Trump ring an emotional bell in certain circles of extreme sensitivity within the perpetually offended class of ideological simpletons.
Media Research Center (MRC) today announced findings of a post-election poll on what actual voters thought about the media’s influence on the 2016 presidential race. The MRC/YouGov poll was conducted on November 9 and 10, key findings follow:
•7 in 10 (69%) voters do not believe the news media are honest and truthful.
•8 in 10 (78%) of voters believe the news coverage of the presidential campaign was biased, with nearly a 3-to-1 majority believing the media were for Clinton (59%) vs. for Trump (21%).
•Even 1/3 (32%) of Clinton voters believe the media were “pro-Clinton.”
•8% of Trump voters said they would have voted for Clinton if they had believed what the media were saying about Trump.
•97% of voters said they did not let the media’s bias influence their vote.
