Selective amnesia might be a better description. Current Media hysteria over Trump's first 100 days, essentially declaring Flynn's resignation among other items a "failure of competence" is laughable if not outright "fake news".

Was there any such media hysteria or criticism during Obama's first 100 days which this author reminds us was rife with withdrawls and resignations and incompetence and missteps far beyond Trump's relatively smooth transition by any objective comparison.

Total rank hypocrisy and media bias as Michelle Malkin factually reminds us below:

I will continue to repeat, the media is thoroughly corrupt. The hysteria featuring ICE agents with guns drawn rounding up illegals was the absolutely perfect example. This raid was planned under Obama. He conducted many raids like this.

Now, the media goes absolutely hysterical. ABC calling it essentially a new normal under Trump. Never mind that 75% of those rounded up had felony records. The MSM could only talk about mothers and children.

There isn't any question in my mind PAX that they are not only corrupt, but thoroughly incompetent.

They have ZERO credibility with me.

Actually ATL, I disagree. I think the MSM is very competent. They know exactly what they are doing. They know how to persuade people. They know how to make people look good and how to make them look bad. they know how to make them look smart and how to look stupid. The articles they write, the images they show, the stories they select to cover, more importantly the stories they choose NOT to cover show a very strong knowledge. These media agents have an agenda. It is a liberal one. And they do a great job of generally highlighting only one side in the debate.

All True PAX. I think their incompetence is in their arrogance, along with their inability to consider anything outside of their self described belief in an all encompassing State and wealth redistribution based on arbitrary rules of "equality".

It's their reality, therein lies their incompetence in my opinion.
