Are national politics getting less extreme?

This post is proof that the answer is no. One party is openly hostile to democracy, and has no issue calling the President of the United States a pedophile.

...while lauding over a former President who really was a pedophile and hung around with a lot of other pedophiles in the 80s and 90s.

Both have been at various times. For now it's the far left state media thats openly hostile to democracy. Yin and Yang.

Agreed on more functional government, but there are a lot of people who want some violence first....and I suspect they'll get their wish.

But the media drives opinion. And leftist media is not kind to the Biden decision makers nor to Harris, who, admittedly is insignificant..

Bullshit. If you really believe "media drives opinion" then you are declaring every American to be a fucking dumbass automaton. That's not true.

For one thing, most antivaxxers don't watch the news. They do their "research" on Facebook, Youtube and other social media, not watching cable news.

The far left media sure seems to have influenced your opinion on Rittenhouse. That never should have gone to trial yet you were somehow brainwashed into thinking he was guilty or would at minimum go to prison. For what I don’t know.
Sorry but you left yourself wide open for that.

Please define who is the "far left media" and , if any, who are the center media and right or far right media.

Disagreed on the trial. When people are killed, there needs to be an accounting.

Remember when Republicans were all about personal responsibility? That all changed after 2016 but I miss the days of personal accountability.

Are you kidding? PMSNBC is as far left as it gets. They’re practically the voice of antifa. Although I actually saw a YouTube blip where Joe Scarborough now blames dims for inflation, agreeing with the NYT.

That’s a tough one. I really don’t watch enough news to say.

You know it’s Fox, OAN and Newsmax.

You have some real problems. Can you actually believe that? You are the core of distrust and inability to converse with such a crappy attitude that is simply not based in fact.

Admittedly this is from CNN. But CNN came out recently w/ the Kamala hit piece and the NYT blasted Biden for inflation (yes, this one's on him they say).

And then there's this from The Hill:

I, for one, hope so. I long for the days when Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan could make deals with Carl Bert Albert (had to google that one) and Tip O'Neill and accomplish stuff. I'd add Bill Clinton but he basically caved to Republicans, not necessarily a bad thing at a time before they went stupid. Of course now it's the Dims that are the Party of Stupid.

Real news does this


Unlike fox



Real news let’s opinion pages say varying opinions




Fox viewers don’t know what that’s like

Yes but the leftist media seems to moderating. Never thought I'd see CNN doing a hit piece on a prominent dem or the NYT come out and say inflation, for once, is the direct responsibility of a president.

Eh, because one article says Biden is responsible for inflation does not make a trend. Whether it’s the media, politicians or regular people like us, extremism (tribalism on steroids) seems to be increasing. Since it’s the topic of the day just look at the reporting on the Rittenhouse case and how they wouldn’t report the basic facts correctly (would interfere with the narrative). We have real problems with the mainstream media won’t report just the facts accurately.

(Just my opinion of course)

Agreed which is why I don't watch MSNBC. Most of the quislings on this forum attack the First Amendment by attacking all the Free Press first. It's a standard tactic used by dictators and other authoritarian assholes. Once they control the media, then they start taking away the rest of our rights too. SOP for Assholes.

Interesting that you haven't a clue on any centered sources.

Agreed Fox, OAN and Newsmax currently represent the far Right media. Trump media will seek to compete. I'm already signed up. :thup:

No worries. It was over 40 years ago. Old people stuff.
 
MSNBC


Has been proven correct about the entire Iraq war


Remember

Being correct is not being far left folks


It’s being correct
 
Fox was not correct about the Iraq war they defended non stop


Fox was not correct about the economy being fine before 2008

MSNBC was correct about an oncoming crash


Being correct is called being right on the money


It’s not being far anything
 
Your idiot memes about news has blown the fuck up on your faces over and over and over


Yet you persist


Idiots
 
Who excoriates a news station for proving to have reported the actual facts and that matched the eventual actual outcomes?



Idiots and or liars
 
Even CNN didn’t get it as correct as MSNBC



Why is ANYONE saying that is a bad thing for them to do?



Seriously folks


That is nutter talk
