AP-GfK poll: Most voters believe media biased against Trump, by AP.

Donald Trump repeatedly rages that the media is biased against him, putting claims of press prejudice at the center of his campaign for president. Most voters — and not just those who are backing the Republican nominee — agree with him, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.

Overall, 56 percent of likely voters say the media is biased against Trump, just 5 percent say it’s biased in his favor and 37 percent say coverage is mostly balanced. …

By contrast, 51 percent say the media is biased in Clinton’s favor and just 8 percent see media bias against her, while 39 percent say the media is mostly balanced. …

People tend to say anything to help their candidate in the heat of a campaign, so that 56 percent is pretty high in such a context. I think we can take it that most everyone now knows the media is strongly biased.

“Hey, it’s record-setting bad treatment, what I’m getting,” Trump said on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Thursday. “It’s the greatest pile-on in American history. I go to rallies, and they’re starting to hate the media because they see it’s all a big lie. Not all, but a lot of it’s a big lie.”

He routinely exhorts the crowds at his rallies to boo the journalists who travel with his campaign. …

“These people are among the most dishonest people in the world, the media,” Trump said at a rally in Florida this week, pointing to the reporters at the back of the event. “They are the worst.”
