For the most part, some politicians are using the media to its full capacity. Hillary Clinton is dabbing on Ellen, Bernie Sanders is meeting with Black Lives Matter Activists, Donald Trump is still spewing nonsense, and Marco Rubio is exposing Ted Cruz for being a flip-flopper. Republicans seem to hate the media because of the questions they are asked during debates. The media is more liberal oriented and Republicans don’t even get a chance. During Republican debates, the candidates are asked questions that pertain mostly to gossip and rumors instead of the actual issues. The questions are made to catch the candidates off guard or make them look idiotic. Donald Trump is the perfect example of this. He is brazen and completely filter-less and the media emphasizes this. His campaign has been criticized at every step. For every criticism that has been thrown at him, he’s lashed out. He has lashed out at NBC, CNN, and FOX. He has also taken to utilizing social media as a part of his armory. Recently he took to twitter to ask his followers what he should do in regards to the debate on Fox News. He was he later publicly announced that he was not going to a Fox News debate because Megyn Kelly would be in attendance. Megyn Kelly had asked him a hard question about his treatment of females during an earlier debate and then replayed his own words to him. He didn’t like having his words thrown back in his face.
