Yea , but if he doesn ' t have a mandate , he can ' t be President . that ' s the way it should work . Its a democracy . <| sep |> In the past few months , it ' s so bloody eye opening , how biased our media is . When I first went on TD , I thought they were all a bunch of conspiracy loonies . But , then , I saw how Indian media was picking up on US elections . And not just some dry primary results . My grandmother , who only watches regional news , knew about Trump and had already decided he was a ' shaitan ' before he was even a nominee . Random fucktards in class who didn ' t know who Jaitley was , when he gave a speech here a few months back , knew about him . And all of them had the same opinion . Then , he won the primaries . And coverage stepped up . The pinnacle being Barkha Dutt saying the Presidential Election was like ' Mahishashur vs Durga '. I stopped taking her seriously after that , at all . And then he won , which was the point at which the media went completely silent . Shit , as Indian media , the least they could have done is point out his pandering to Indian AmericansThat they ' d gladly do if it was Clinton doing it . They could have talked about the problems our exports might face with TPP , they could have talked about the personal enmity between Clinton and Modi . Nothing . At least the American media kept up a cover of neutrality while being biased , Indian media didn ' t even pretend . And then , this shit . Hack jobs passing off utter retardation as articles , and an influx of users who either suffer from extreme brain damage or are astroturfers . Opposition uniting over a non issue , while the media acts as a force multiplier . Opinion polls being ignored over anecdotes . As a Centrist , we really , really need a media outlet that caters to us . I don ' t want my news from Zee , but NDTV has disgusted me too in recent times .
