knapplc Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 This is, apparently, a real thing. The questions:The Mainstream Media Accountability Survey from donaldjtrump.com. Do you believe that the mainstream media has reported unfairly on our movement? Do you trust MSNBC to report fairly on Trump's presidency? Do you trust CNN to report fairly on Trump's presidency? Do you trust Fox News to report fairly on Trump's presidency? On which issues does the mainstream media do the worst job of representing Republicans? (Select as many that apply.) Which television source do you primarily get your news from? Do you use a source not listed above? Which online source do you use the most? Do you believe that the mainstream media does not do their due diligence fact-checking before publishing stories on the Trump administration? Do you believe that the media unfairly reported on President Trump’s executive order temporarily restricting people entering our country from nations compromised by radical Islamic terrorism? Were you aware that a poll was released revealing that a majority of Americans actually supported President Trump's temporary restriction executive order? Do you believe that political correctness has created biased news coverage on both illegal immigration and radical Islamic terrorism? Do you believe that contrary to what the media says, raising taxes does not create jobs? Do you believe that people of faith have been unfairly characterized by the media? Do you believe that the media wrongly attributes gun violence to Second Amendment rights? Do you believe that the media has been far too quick to spread false stories about our movement? Do you believe that the media uses slurs rather than facts to attack conservative stances on issues like border control, religious liberties, and ObamaCare? Do you believe that the media purposely tries to divide Republicans against each other in order to help elect Democrats? Do you believe that the media creates false feuds within our Party in order to make us seem divided? Do you believe that the mainstream media has been too eager to jump to conclusions about rumored stories? Do you believe that if Republicans were obstructing Obama like Democrats are doing to President Trump, the mainstream media would attack Republicans? Do you agree with the President’s decision to break with tradition by giving lesser known reporters and bloggers the chance to ask the White House Press Secretary questions? Do you agree with President Trump’s media strategy to cut through the media’s noise and deliver our message straight to the people? Do you believe that our Party should spend more time and resources holding the mainstream media accountable? This is troubling in a lot of ways, most notably because of the insinuations of an "us vs. them" mentality between Republicans and the press.This is less a "survey" and more thinly-veiled propaganda. It is clearly designed to reinforce the idea that they (the MSM) are against us (Trump supporters). 1 Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Good lord, does his ego really need more pampering? What Trump supporter is going to disagree with any of those points? They're all leading questions! Regardless, I just spent 5 minutes giving the opposite of the answers they wanted, with some colorful commentary. Might as well try to muck up the system - maybe I can get some low-level unpaid staffer to spit out his coffee. Trump is consistently just wandering around looking for enablers. 2 Link to comment

I did the same - though I was honest. What a racket. Link to comment
funhusker Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I just took it also. I said I do think it is okay for the President to bypass media and get the word out via social media. I just wish it was done so with more professionalism and not such a "whiny" tone. God, I hope there is some random drawing and he reads my comment.... Link to comment

Wasn't Obama's twitter an official white house handle? Did he bitch about the media on it, did he call legit articles fake news on it, did he call the media America's enemy on it, did he spread lies and misinformation on it? Link to comment
