The New York Times created a c
omprehensive list of everyone that Donald Trump has insulted since June 2015. I saw it tonight as I was perusing Facebook.
It's quite a list and many journalists and media outlets get their own column inches of vitriol.
There's a whole section devoted to "the mainstream media." To make it more intelligible, I put it into a word cloud.
Howard Kurtz of Fox News states that Donald Trump and the media are in "an all out war" over Trump's claims of media bias and rigging. News outlets are responding with similarly harsh rhetoric, this Times piece being one example. I get it, Trump and the media are hardly bosom buddies, but can we at least maintain some semblance of balanced reporting? Hillary Clinton has gone negative and her list should also be reported. It is undoubtedly much shorter than Donald's and may ultimately stregnthen the case the Times is trying to make. Nevertheless, it should be part of the picture.
