Economic Good Times Ignored by Media

Media-on Trump

The main stream media has decided to report about other things rather than reporting the large economic boom the United States is experiencing. How do we know?  A study has come out and provides the proof in the amount of time spent in the news cycles.  So much so, that 92% of the news coming and being reported is NEGATIVE in nature.

The study conducted by the Media Research Center, their analysts reviewed all 1,007 evening news stories (1,960 minutes of airtime) about the Trump administration on ABC, CBS and NBC from June 1 to September 30, tallying the coverage of each topic and all evaluative comments made by anchors, reporters and non-partisan sources (such as voters or experts).

Here is what they found:

Over the summer, the broadcast networks have continued to pound Donald Trump and his team with the most hostile coverage of a President in TV news history — 92 percent negative, vs. just eight percent positive.

The results show that, over the past four months, nearly two-thirds of evening news coverage of the Trump presidency has been focused on just five main topics: the Russia investigation; immigration policy; the Kavanaugh nomination; North Korea diplomacy; and U.S. relations with Russia. The networks’ coverage of all of these topics has been highly negative, while bright spots for the administration such as the booming economy received extremely little coverage (less than one percent of the four-month total).
