Some examples were misleading headlines (ie clickbait), repeated reporting of negative connotations, pictures that did not flatter him put next to more flattering (if possible) pics of Hillary, etc. It was a whole concerted effort to make him look as bad as possible while not digging nearly as deep or being nearly as dogged with anything that might have portrayed Hilary negatively.

I am not saying they never reported anything negative about her. Sometimes they were forced to. It was more the little details of portraying him vs portraying her. That's what I meant by not only the quotes.

You are seriously saying that the media dug more into Trump than Clinton?  

Talk about confirmation bias.

Clinton has been in the media spotlight for 30+ years...how much more digging could they do?  Trump was a private citizen so every time something new was found out it was, well, new, and reported on.

Virtually every story about Trump was because he said or did something and it was reported.  He loved the attention but didn't want any of the criticism.
