    The left-wing news media didn’t just poison the information environment with their incessantly negative coverage of President Trump going into the 2020 election. They also refused to give airtime to important arguments of the Republican campaign — both pro-Trump and anti-Biden — which meant millions of voters cast their ballots knowing only what the media permitted them to know about the candidates.

    To measure the true effect of the media’s censorship on the election, the Media Research Center asked The Polling Company to survey 1,750 Biden voters in seven swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin), six of which (all but North Carolina) were called for Biden (survey details below). We tested these voters’ knowledge of eight news stories — all important topics that our ongoing analysis had shown the liberal news media had failed to cover properly. We found that a huge majority (82%) of Biden voters were unaware of at least one of these key items, with five percent saying they were unaware of all eight of the issues we tested.

    The only effect of these polls is to upset repubs. It’s a poke in the eye. There is no way to redo the election. It might be contested, but it won’t be redone no matter how many “would of/could of” polls they do.

    peace to you

    Rev. Democrat voters are three types.
    1. A tiny percentage of elites.
    2. The lazy who can be bought for a cheap price.
    3. The morons who are duped by the elites.

    I agree that the mainstream media has an agenda, but it's not like people can't do their own research. It's easy enough to find stuff (though sorting truth from misinformation is harder).

    I voted third party and am happy with that, but if I had to choose a main party candidate.....
    On some surface issues Biden's platform aligns with my politics more (other than abortion), but knowing his past record isn't that great I'd probably have voted for Trump.

    I knew about every one of these stories, but many of the stories are not true. I consume "mainstream media" (apparently aka, "Liberal Media"), and heard reports on every bit of this, except for the economic growth figure, but that figure is invented.

    For instance, the Hunter Biden story was Russian and Trump campaign disinformation; the ranking of Harris as leftmost Senator has faulty methodology; only about 6.7 million jobs were added to the economy during the Trump Administration; the Peace Deals were a small accomplishment; US Energy Independence happened during Obama's presidency (although Trump always claims it); the 33.1% economic growth is based on the rebound in the third quarter (July to September) of 7.4% from massive economic losses, and then annualizing it (projecting that same rate of growth for a full year) to create the false number of 33.1%.

    Operation Warp Speed looks like it is going to be a great success in terms of creating vaccines, so that's something that Trump can legitimately take credit for.

    But it will be interesting as to how the MSM will covering that. As well how those on the Left (Peolsi, Harris, Schumer, ect) as to what their public comments will be.

    Any predictions our our liberal politicians?

    The "MSM" commentators that I've listened to have remarked that Trump should have been taking credit for Operation Warp Speed instead of the stock market numbers today, or many of the other things he has tried to claim.

    So the MSM has been fair so far. I haven't paid attention to politicians.

    LOL. What a joke. The Dem MSM has almost never been fair with Trump.

    But to be fair here, please link the articles and clips where the Dem MSM is giving Trump his due for Operation Warp Speed without making it a backhanded compliment like you just described.

    Had it been Obama rather than Trump, they would have been singing his praises, presenting him with numerous awards, enshrining his accomplishment for all posterity. And they would have begun months ago when the idea was first mentioned.

    Oh, I agree with most of it except for the minor issue of dead babies.
