If you support Trump, your career is over.

Video of Bill O'Reilly
Apparently, according to Bill O'Reilly, some media/news organizations and outlets have ordered their employees to destroy Trump. These same organizations have put out to their employees that if you actually support Trump, your career is over. CNN has to be one of these news organizations that O'Reilly is talking about. Because they do nothing but slander and talk down on Trump 24/7.

If true, that is pretty sad if you ask me. Whether you support Trump or not, that is pretty screwed up. That isn't exactly what America and freedom of choice is about.

Say what I want you to say, obey the authoritarian government, never criticize, or you will be punished.

Welcome to the Hillary Clinton Regime.

Here is my shocked face.........

When people believe a singular source is the arbiter of reliable news consider the possibility that you yourself may be living in a box of their making.

I didn't say I believed it personally. If you read my OP, I said "If True". However, there are quite a few people out there that believe certain sections of the MSM are running intentional smear campaigns against Trump.

When this election is over and Hillary wins, at some point, I think we'll see the shady dark underbelly that went on behind the scenes across several fronts of this election. This type of stuff ALWAYS comes out after the fact. It even gives SOME PEOPLE (I've witnessed it) voters remorse and wishing they had changed their vote. Hindsight 20/20 kind of thing.

Even if this is true, here's a guide to not getting fired for your political choice...

Step 1 - Find out if your employer is so petty that your job will be at risk if you vote for any of the candidates.

Step 2 - Write down the name of the candidate that, if voted for, will cause your dismissal (if you are stupid enough to need this guide then it is ESSENTIAL you do this step).

Step 3 - On voting day, go and vote for whichever candidate you want (my personal preference here would be neither Trump nor Clinton but you're free to make your own mistakes).

Step 4 - Go back to your employer, acting like a good little sheep, telling them all about how you're pleased you voted for the candidate they are backing (if need be, consult the note you wrote, just to make sure you come out with the right name)

Et viola, your job is safe*

*Don't forget, if my guide to keeping your job works, nothing says thank you like dollars in the waistband...

And yes, if people don't think you can't get fired over your political choice, go have a look at the many examples over the years. Now keep in mind, I'm not saying what O'Reilly is saying is true. However, what I am saying is, it wouldn't shock me if it WERE true.

Fits in nicely with this: WikiLeaks: Clinton Campaign Has “Friendly” Journalists Who Regurgitate Their Talking Points

I was thinking about making a thread about it, but since it echoes your OP, I'll just post it here for the greater discussion.

If true, it might explain some of the faux outrage we've seen about Clinton operatives on message boards and such... I don't have a problem with folks expressing opinions on forums. I do however have HUGE problems with a purportedly impartial and unbiased media spreading their candidates propaganda as truth and facts. If they want to support a candidate -- as is their right to do so -- then fine, but do it on your own time and your own dime. Don't exploit our free press for personal and political agendas and pretend it's anything else.

Their attempts to destroy Trump have been their downfall. Although there are lots of people out there that don't care for Trump, a vote for him is a vote that spites liberals. It's a vote to spite both political parties, and it's a vote to spit in the face of the corruption of our federal government. The more people push against Trump, the bigger his support base grows. Anyone that drops off is quickly replaced by more.

Then there are millions of people like me, who are voting for Trump because they do like him and they want to see illegals down to a minimum, and a hold taken on terrorism by any means necessary, and to see the ACA go bye bye, etc.

Can we create a GLP Icon so we can clearly identify threads like this.

Hey Bloody - what will your next post be?
This is the second one I see today with your first being you claiming Hillary said the "N-Word" and yes it was YOUR claim.
You should first read the articles you're co-signing on.

Trump is Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic. If you still support him you must relate to him.

If you show Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic behavior on the job you will lose your job generally speaking.

Better yet. Just don't discuss politics at the workplace.

You can support Trump and not be any of those things you mentioned. Nice broad brush there.

So you're saying that the MILLIONS of people who support him, have those views? REALLY? How shortsighted and ignorant are you?

Not anymore. Trump has reached the ceiling on that gravy train.

Of course, it's not called Clinton News Network for nothing.

CNN reminds me of FOX (Full On Xenophobia).

"If true......."
And there are no facts in evidence to support his claim. There probly never will be. But just because O'Reily makes the claim doesn't mean it is true. It is just a supposition and its one made by a champion bloviator.

And that's the problem with the US media and to a large extent the internet. People hold beliefs which are wholly unsupported by factual evidence. At the same time, the media empires are very good at hiding facts and there are no investigative journalists searching for evidence.

And me and you both know that wont happen. Cooler talk always goes on at work and this is how workplace drama and backstabbing happens.

Easier said then done.
