    No. that's reporting on what poll results were. Whoever made that meme is why fake news gets spread.

    i think tonight puts the final nail in the coffin for the media and prediction pundits...polls become irrelevant moving forward

    i think the people (silent majority) finally get heard and they rock the system and we get Donald Trump as the next President of the United States

    either way..whoever wins..."god" help us all

    to all those who have discussed the political season to exhaustion with me and the rest of AMT, its been quite the ride and i hope we all prosper in whatever way possible from whoever is elected and moving forward the rest of the country learns from this mistake in the future

    if anything - a post like that helps trump because it would make non-trump supporters complacent ...

    http://www.businessinsider.com/nbc-criticism-trump-tweet-muslim-registry-reince-2016-11?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=webfeeds

    NBC News came under fire Sunday morning for two tweets that removed context from an answer Reince Priebus, President-elect Donald Trump's pick for White House chief of staff, offered on the idea of a Muslim registry.

    Priebus appeared "Meet the Press" and was asked by host Chuck Todd whether he could rule out the idea of placing Muslims on a registry.

    Here was the exchange:

    TODD: Can you equivocally rule out a registry for Muslims?

    PRIEBUS: Look, I’m not going to rule out anything. But, we are not going to have a registry based on religion.

    What trump is doing is trying to remove a level of accounability as well as reduce the awareness and information the public will have. Hilarious!

    He gathered press and media together in an attempt to demean them and try to put them in their place, which is natural for an authoritarian. Just start connecting the dots: press dodging, mockery, whining like a 12 year old about being treated unfairly, maniulating followers to villainize the press, inability to handle being questioned, a long history of avoiding accountability, a lack of transparency. His nature is to control, so he is going to control the image and the output. What's likely to happen is we'll see a limited and only occasional press pool that follows him. Press access will basically be an extension of what Bannon creates. It'll basically have the look and feel of a propaganda department. They'll be approved people in the bunch that happily reports what is fed to them and only ask softball questions.

    I guess only time will tell to see if those things to mention are true.
    Are you saying that the press pools for the last two presidents were not propaganda arms? We had 911, endless wars of choice and the worse financial collapse since the great depression?
    Between fair and accurate and biased and ridiculous...
    How would you rate the reporting of those events leading up to and during versus what we know now?
    How would you rate the press coverage of the primaries and the election?
