Interesting article, though I think a lot of people formed their opinion about both candidates a long time ago.

Because the media wants Trump to be President for headlines.

Why did the people believe in 2000 that Al Gore said he invented the internet despite no evidence he ever said it?

Because that's the narrative that's been forced for years.

Also because she is white. Media would never be mean towards minorities, huh? Political correctness.

Love it when people accidentally prove sexism exists by arguing that it doesn't.

Trump is so covered in scandal that we're unable to focus on any one thing, while in Hillary's case there're a handful of clear, established problematic issues that everyone knows about? With Trump there are just too many moving parts. How would the media even decide on which one to run with? It would have to be essentially arbitrary.
