Has anyone else out there noticed the total bias with promotion of certain candidates running for president? I’ve noticed who they’re supporting like never before. I should say I’ve noticed who they detest also…Trump No matter which candidate you support, this isn’t fair to the American people who really want the truth in the media to come back.
