Newsbusters

Since Joe Biden exited the 2024 presidential race four weeks ago, the liberal networks have delivered an unprecedented boost of positive publicity to his successor in the race, Vice President Kamala Harris. Not only has Harris received 66% more airtime than former President Donald Trump, but the spin of Harris’s coverage has been more positive (84%) than any other major party nominee, even as Trump’s coverage has been nearly entirely hostile (89% negative).

As always, our calculation of spin omits so-called “horse race” assessments (see methodology statement below), but a separate count shows those statements have also favored Harris by a whopping margin (94% positive, vs. just 43% positive for Trump).

    I watched a round table of black business people that credit their success to Donald Trump today. When no one would give them a loan it was suggested to them they go see Donald Trump. I’m sure Trump turned some of them down. But not these guys. So when the note was due they showed up and presented DJT with a check. He tore it up and said congratulations. You earned it. Trump refused to take payment. If I spend a half hour I can find that story. Dear Mike Obama. Fuck off eat shit and die.
