    Majority Finds Media Coverage Of Trump Is "Too Critical, Exaggerated": WSJ/NBC Poll

    Three weeks after a poll found that the Trump administration was seen as more "truthful" than the news media, a new WSJ/NBC News poll has found that according to a majority of Americans, the media’s coverage of President Donald Trump has been too critical, although the margin is narrow and the split is once again largely down party lines. While 51% rate the media as too critical of Trump since the presidential election, 41% say the coverage has been fair and objective, while 6% say the media hasn't been critical enough.

    Furthermore, a majority of those polled, some 53%, also believes that the news media have exaggerated problems in the Trump administration. 45% say that is not the case.

    79% of those whose primary news source is Fox News agreed with the statement that “the news media and other elites are exaggerating the problems of the Trump administration, because they are uncomfortable and threatened by the kind of change that Trump represents.” Even large numbers of more-liberal MSNBC audience, 40%, thought that the media had overstated the problems.

    It is an NBC poll. Numbers are straight from NBC. I looked. If you find one that is different, please post it. Until then, the facts speak for themselves.

    toughcoins Rarely is the liberal viewpoint tainted by realism

    "Oh Please" coming from Mr. Joe sort of reminds me of the SNL days of old, with "Oh Noo" emanating from Mr. Bill when threatened by Sluggo (presumably the big bad republicans), or when crushed or otherwise abused by Mr. Hands (the now Trump-supportive public) when attempting to lend a helping hand.
