Veteran journalist Bob Woodward criticized reporters on the right and left alike who were becoming too emotionally invested in their coverage of Donald Trump, calling them "unhinged."
"You’ve described the Trump presidency as being a "test" for the news media. Do you think the media is failing the test?" asked Newsweek.
The former Washington Post reporter—now an associate editor—responded journalists could always do better, including himself, but that he thought the media had not "failed" to date.
"But we have a lot of work to do," he continued. "A number of reporters have at times become emotionally unhinged about it all, one way or the other."

I have been thinking the same thing, about me. The past couple of days I have been thinking to myself as to why I am defending Trump so often. It doesn't make any difference either way. You can't change anyone's mind on the internet. So many don't know the facts, sometimes NO facts. This personality clash between Trump and his haters has to stop. There are too many important things we need to begin working on and find solutions to.
I mean come on, We can't effect change by arguing on here or any other comment section. We are just getting all worked up and not paying attention to other things happening in the world and right around us.
We have become distracted, and that's can't be a good thing after a while. We need to start looking to see what the left hand is doing.
Woodward has a left leaning view of everything. NO LONGER credible...
