More Blatant CNN Bias on 'Trumponomics'
CNN Money tried to have it both ways on “Trumponomics,” blaming bad currency news on the new president the same day it refused to credit him for any positive impact on the jobs report.

NYT Says Terror Covered Fairly, But Own Coverage Is Dismissive
New York Times Scott Shane pushed back against Donald Trump’s claim that the media was not adequately covering Islamic terrorism on Wednesday’s front page: “Terror News Underplayed?
