@Nisse_Hult "...what illegality that was revealed in the Podesta e-mails. Exactly [what,] ... Clinton [has] done that is illegal..." I never said she did anything illegal? I just pointed out that people could read them and didn't like what they saw. It was a point of observation; not an accusation of wrongdoing. Your reading way more into this than there is.
“…you always [know,] Clinton is guilty of a lot of things…” What? No One always knows anything. That is what makes them No One. Sorry it is a bad joke, but no I’m not angry with Clinton.
I'd argue that what was left out of the media is as much propaganda as any false creation, but well I guess I'm just old-fashioned and think the media should show both sides. I consider fox news to be like CNN, or any other big news network, a corporatist enterprise much too close to our politicians. If you want "...outright lie... the Obama presidency... spread... one example, backed up with a serious source..." What kind of source do you want? https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2013/07/19/remarks-president-trayvon-martin
Will this do?
"There are very few African American men in this country who haven't had the experience of being followed when they were shopping in a department store. That includes me. There are very few African American men who haven't had the experience of walking across the street and hearing the locks click on the doors of cars. That happens to me -- at least before I was a senator. There are very few African Americans who haven't had the experience of getting on an elevator and a woman clutching her purse nervously and holding her breath until she had a chance to get off. That happens often.
And I don't want to exaggerate this, but those sets of experiences inform how the African American community interprets what happened one night in Florida. And it’s inescapable for people to bring those experiences to bear. The African American community is also knowledgeable that there is a history of racial disparities in the application of our criminal laws -- everything from the death penalty to enforcement of our drug laws. And that ends up having an impact in terms of how people interpret the case."
Try to keep in context that America is not Europe. America has had large minorities that dwarf anything Europe has had to deal with. America's history is no less racially charged than Europe's. America, unlike the states of Europe however, has not had the "luxury" (wrong word but it would take far too long to explain the complex facets of multiethnic congruence) of a culturally and racially homogeneous society. Basically, racism in the USA is treated like Nazism is treated in Germany. I don't like the way the right screamed about it but Obama's racial propaganda was I agree despicable. The USA will never be perfect but Obama is not stupid and he knew what kind of rhetoric he was using. It may be hard to understand but what he did was tell people that their worst fears were real and that the government was going to do little to nothing about it.
The results are as you would expect: https://youtu.be/hqQXmnMr_w8?t=13s , https://youtu.be/xJpWiV-zLoM?t=15s , http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/01/20/donald-trump-inauguration-day-protests-editorials-debates/96846822/
"Now Trump is heading for open war with the press..." You know this is just showmanship, right? I agree Trump isn't good, I'm no fan, but I don't think he's stupid. Most of this is just a show put on for us, and the media is just playing its role. I've read a few news translations from Sweden’s DN, and your reporters are little different. No new news just a slight rearrangement.
I have noticed that you are openly hostile towards Americans. Is this a common trait in Sweden? If so than the last panel here https://satwcomic.com/break-the-bars is allot funnier.

That is a joke in case you didn’t know.
