      A great deal of this is people objecting to what they see as shrill, outrage-for-its-own-sake inflected coveragehttps://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/836342567839141889 …

      And there's a kernel of truth to that: just look at the torrent of lazy, hysterical Russia stories that always seem to end up falling apart.

      If media wants to have any hope of regaining credibility they need to be more circumspect. Don't validate the overwrought Trump critique.

          And by "overwrought Trump critique" I mean the anti-media line Trump himself is currently using. Laziness/hysteria bolsters his tactics.

          I have to say that I am really tired of the hysteria. Would it be at all possible to have sensible opposition? Apparently not

          it's possible to be objective and fair AND still critical of Trump and/or his policies. True story! They will never figure it out

          Agree or disagree: you can describe Trump's horror and insanity using only unimpeachable facts, no speculation.

          86% feel elites are "reaping rewards" at the expense of everyone else. I think issue is bigger than reporting, it's who media is.

          8yrs of RW media hysteria vs Obama as a case study? (e.g., "He only killed OBL to distract us from economy," "Kenyan/Muslim," etc.)

          Yeah, but if they do not keep up the nonsensical attacks, then the media will be "normalizing" Trump. Besides, outrage sells.
