Trump Won The Debate; Why Won't Mainstream Media Report It?

"News" outlets dishonestly continue to claim that Clinton won.

Trump Won The Debate; Why Won't Mainstream Media Report It?
CBS News

The first Presidential Debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton broke the record for the most-watched political debate. The political outsider took on the epitome of the Establishment in a historic face-off that is part of a larger historical turning point in American politics.

Donald Trump overwhelmingly won the debate according to online polls. He out-debated Hillary Clinton on issues regarding the economy, jobs, trade, national security, and immigration. Polls from TIME, Breitbart, Drudge, The Hill, CNBC, CBS, Fox, and various other news sites showed Trump winning, some of them by a wide margin.

If this is the case, why have I only heard the CNN poll, in which Hillary Clinton won with over 60%, mentioned by the mainstream media outlets?

Clinton's campaign spokesman appeared on Fox News this morning and spoke only of the CNN poll as he praised her for winning the debate. However, it does make sense that those on the campaign want to push the best numbers. But the mainstream media networks need to be reporting the real poll results and not just the results of that one.

Just about every "news" outlet is tremendously biased, and it needs to change. It is okay to tell us about the poll in which Hillary won, but the polls she did not win in need to be mentioned as well. Trump's support base is overwhelming, and the media knows but tries to keep it a secret.

It is time for mainstream media to start reporting news rather than their own biased opinions and narratives, tell the Americans the truth, and keep us informed on what is really going on in our country and especially in our political sphere.

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
