    Violence by supporters, etc. Yes, there have been anecdotal cases of violence committed by both Trump & Clinton supporters. But I don’t think they were behind that. There have been cases of teachers getting students to protest DJ Trump’s election. This is wrong as it’s adults using kids to push a political agenda, because the adults wanted Hillary & not Donald to be the President. I don’t think Hillary or Donald are behind this & I don’t think they would support this. Teachers must not push their political beliefs on students because a teacher’s job is to teach, not push political agendas.

    If a kid says that he or she supported DJ Trump for President, the adult teacher could punish the student, because the student gave a view which differed from the teacher. I don’t think Hillary’s behind that just as I don’t think DJ Trump’s behind what some of his supporters did. Most media hasn’t talked as much about teachers using schoolkids to protest Trump’s election, while trying to punish students who supported Trump.

    Pres. elect DJ Trump can talk big, but think he knows that he can’t stop people’s free speech right to speak against him & he can’t censor the media. He was right about how most media is biased against him. Many Americans no longer trust mainstream media on some topics. ABC, CBS, NBC, & CNN have seen their ratings go down because many people don’t trust their news. Many newspapers get fewer readers.

  2. Proving that ratings for ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, Fox News & CNN has gone down over the years, see these 3 links http://www.thepoliticalinsider.com/fox-news-takes-huge-hit-ratings/

    While CNN, ABC News, PBS, CBS, Fox and NBC compete with eachother & newspapers, they all give same biased news coverage with the elections, saying the same things. The same thing with newspapers. Media makes their money from advertisers. Yes, news is the same when covered by different networks & newspapers. You can’t change facts.

    When journalists & broadcasters give the same views usu. attacking Pres. elect DJ Trump, it’s the competitors saying the same thing. Facts don’t change and can’t compete when reporting them but views can compete and when reporting is biased such as CNN Anderson Hays Cooper and Fox News David Shepard Smith giving views against DJ Trump when reporting news, then it’s not competing views.

    I usu. do not watch the news on American news networks & almost never read the newspapers. Newspapers & news networks compete with each other with regard to viewers & advertisers, but they usu. don’t compete when it comes to the views of the journalists. It’s among these reasons why fewer people trust the news when it comes to some topics such as the 2016 Presidential election. Many people who watch those networks already agree with the journalists biases against President elect DJ Trump. Some viewers will watch let’s say CBS & ABC news to hear the journalists bias against Pres. Trump such as watch ABC News 1 night, CBS news the next night & so on.

    Same thing with the few media sources which were against Hillary Diane Clinton by watching or reading the media against Hillary such as comparing WND to Lifesite news. Many people will watch what agrees with them.

  4. Pres. DJ Trump (I do not support him) got some non-White votes-8% Black, 29% Hispanic, 29% Asian & some American Indian or Native American votes. Any protesters who wanted Hillary Diane Clinton to be Pres. but didn’t vote, have no complaint about Pres. DJ Trump. He won the election fair. As Pres. Obama said-don’t boo, vote. When Pres. Obama won the election & reelection in 2008 & 2012, I did not protest because Pres. Obama won fair. People must accept DJ Trump winning election fairly.

    As known, reporters from CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN (like Anderson Hays Cooper), PBS & most newspapers journalists supported Hillary and opposed Donald for President. Now facts are the same when in comes to news but journalists views on news can be different. Also how journalists report the facts can show bias. Mainstream media is not credible on some topics such as 2016 Presidential election. I think what reporters from CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN,etc. along with journalists for most newspapers hope that if they repeat the same things about DJ Trump unchallenged, that people will believe what they say but many aren’t.

    Most people who watch CBS, NBC, ABC, etc. already agree with the journalists bias against DJ Trump. While the many who don’t trust the mainstream media bias against DJ Trump often tune out because they’ve heard it so many times before that there’s not much to regard. Again if NBC News, CBS News, ABC News, etc. are all saying the same things with same views, not much to consider. That’s why it’s no surprise that mainstream media like CBS, ABC, etc. has lost credibility on some topics and have lost ratings because many people are tuning out.

    They have found that even with TV shows, ratings have been going down for the networks because when a TV show pushes views incl. political views, which is repeated on other network shows, it gets dull to hear the same views. Incidentally, fewer people go to the movies than they did years ago because Hollywood has lost creativity such as doing remakes, sequels or making movies with the same topics repeated so many times rerunning the same views.

    We saw how celebrities usu. supported Hillary, such as Katy Elizabeth Perry, Jay Z, etc., which is their right as American citizens to do so, while we saw how celebrities spoke against DJ Trump, such as Adele Laurie Blue Adkins telling Donald not to use her song Rolling in the Deep during the campaign. After DJ Trump won the election, we have again heard celebrities Ariana Grande, Katy E. Perry, etc. talk of how they’re crying that he won, etc.

    Now I like music by Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, etc. & again I did not vote for DJ Trump. I did not vote for Hillary. But I don’t decide because celebrities say so. Celebrities have a free speech right to give their political views, but most people don’t care about celebrities political views. It’s no surprise media would give the celebrities views, but a celebrity’s view is just a citizen’s view. DJ Trump won the election and the Republicans are the majority in both Senate & Representatives House.

    Possibly because celebrities accomplish more than most in life, that they think average people care what they think. Pres. Obama seems irritated by the people who have protest DJ Trump winning the election, with Pres. Obama saying that it’s a democratic process and that like it or not DJ Trump won the election fair. We’ll find out if DJ Trump says what he means when he succeeds Pres. Obama or did DJ Trump just say what he did to get elected?

  5. Pres. DJ Trump has some media allies such as WND, columnist Patrick J. Buchanan and radio host Rush H. Limbaugh. Almost all the other media in the US such as ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN & PBS were hostile to DJ Trump. Even Fox News, with many complaining that Fox has become too much like CNN. Most Internet media such as Daily Kos, Huffington Post, Media Matters, etc. were hostile to DJ Trump. Almost all the media opposed DJ Trump for President, which is why I don’t think DJ Trump has powerful media allies, because mainstream media was hostile to DJ Trump be they networks, newspapers and Internet sites.

    Though evangelical Christians usu. voted for DJ Trump, in the beginning, many were against him getting nominated. In March 2016, Mission America’s radio hostess Linda P. Harvey spoke against DJ Trump & she was saying that Ted Cruz (Rafael Edward Cruz) should be the next President. But after DJ Trump won the Republican nomination, then Mission America’s Linda P. Harvey supported DJ Trump & told listeners to vote for DJ Trump rather than Hillary, where she talked of why Hillary would be bad choice.

    I did not vote for any of the candidates because I don’t like Sen. Hillary Diane Clinton or DJ Trump. I thought Hillary was going to win & she did win the popular vote while losing electoral college. But I think people are dishonest when they say things like DJ Trump had powerful media allies because based on the few times I watch American media, almost all of them were biased against him.

    Celebrities were mostly against DJ Trump for President. DJ Trump got some famous sports people to support him. But for most part, Sen. Hillary Diane Clinton had the advantage when it came to people supporting her for President such as most media, celebrities, etc. With all that, DJ Trump won the Presidency. Mainstream media is not credible on some topics such as 2016 Presidential election. I think what reporters from CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN,etc. along with journalists for most newspapers hope that if they repeat the same things about DJ Trump unchallenged, that people will believe what they say but many aren’t.
