There is Only One Candidate Part Four
by tristero
Yesterday, a fairly typical day at Huffington Post, Trump received much more than twice as many headlines as Clinton. And there were more than 4 times as many pictures of Trump as there were of Clinton.
This kind of gross skewing of coverage is repeated throughout the media. You think this might have something to do with Trump’s unnervingly high poll numbers?
You think????
