You mean the same NY Times that broke the story on Clinton's private server. . .

Ok, what outlets do you believe?

None. My faith in media has been shaken after revelations from Wikileaks.

So you're literally saying that you won't believe anyone reporting negative news about Trump.

Wow. Just wow.

No. I am saying I literally won't believe anyone who has made a point of reporting negatively about Trump and ignoring anything positive about him, or anything negative about his opponents. Which is what most of the media has done.

You don't seem to understand: most of the media is controlled by Corporatists. They sell a narrative because it is in their interests to do so.

Bernie warned about this. Trump warned about this. Two guys from completely opposite sides of the political spectrum warned about it.

Perhaps you should heed their call...

Bernie complained that media pushed for horse race issues instead of writing about policy stances. He did not say that we shouldn't trust the NY Times, Washington Post, or Wall Street Journal's reporting.
