Buckle up: Win or lose, Trump promises potential scenarios of violence | Opinion
Why Troubling News:
The author on this opinion piece mentions D. Earl Stephens’ essay for 'Raw Story', which criticizes the mainstream media for allegedly failing to challenge Trump effectively. It does include valid concerns about democratic institutions. However, the bias is very apparent. The portrayal of Trump as a "sociopath" and a potential dictator is one example. This kind of language lacks objectivity . It also includes speculative claims, such as Trump's plans to use the military to enforce domestic laws and establish detention camps, which are not backed up by actual evidence. It talks a lot about scenarios of violence if he wins/loses. It exaggerates a lot of things. It cannot be a balanced discussion if things are exaggerated.
