It's an old meme. I'd actually disagree with it in part. The show literally does try to misrepresent facts and get people to believe exactly what they want while trying to look non bias.
Take the Hillary Benghazi coverage they did for example. They brushed over the case against her and simply summed it up like it wasn't a big deal - while not covering any of the real reasons people were upset about Benghazi because if you pull out the shady shit that happened any rational person hits instant outrage. But the whole point of the segment was to make Hillary's scandals look insignificant while also making Trump look bad.
They even compared Hillary's scandals to a cookie with a few bad raisens but 'overall it's still good, everyone has some bad stuff' because you know, even the most die hard libshit has to admit Hillary had a decent number of fucking flaws and red flags.

Yikes, I missed that one. The cognitive dissonance there is outstanding. I almost want to check it out but I've seen enough of that faggot already.
