the media is fast and loose in their reporting - were they lies or just misinterpretation?

And, of course, this number doesn't even come close to the actual number of lies; for those by omission were not included, as far as I can see.

Agreed! As far as lying by omission I am guessing you are referring to their favorite practice of telling one side of the story or leaving important details out? My favorite is what the media refers to as "unarmed" when someone is killed by police. Many of these "unarmed" people where driving stolen cars, and had already rammed police cars, even those with officers standing beside them. Funny, in anti DUI ads cars are considered a weapon, yet they aren't considered a weapon by the liberal media if a criminal is aiming them at police.
We all know what dictates whether the media sides with the criminal or not.

The New York Times published a list of all of Trump’s lies while in office in chronological order. I counted fifty lies before I got to March 16, 2017. And those were all lies, not mistakes and they were never corrected.*

The mainstream media is our only defense against this pathological liar.
Here's a more complete list of King Donald's lies.
20 lies per page, 10 pages

It's Attkisson, not Atkinson, and she's one of the few honest, competent journalists left. She's so "dense" that she won the 2012 Emmy Award for Investigative Journalism and the Murrow Award for Investigative Journalism the same year. You still mad at her for exposing your comrades in the Fast and Furious scandal?

I don't know what is more gratifying right now, how well the economy is doing or how the President drives Dems so crazy. It must be so miserable being inside the head of a liberal right now.

When you really think about it, some of them are killing themselves.
