This type of media coordination against Trump is nothing new. It's been going on since the get-go, it's just the first time the MSM has admitted it. They are not the 'free press', they're 'conspirators'.

Wikileaks exposed the HRC off-the-record, invitation-only, event where she laid out her "expectations" of the MSM during her announcement and launch period of her campaign. At this same meeting she also explained to the MSM how she wanted to "Frame the HRC message" and "Frame the race". The MSM literally sat down with the HRC campaign, off-the-record, prior to her announcement & took orders from her on how to cover her and the race. It was like a staff meeting.

Look at the compromised outlets who attended. These outlets are the enemy of the people:

ABC
AP
Bloomberg
Buzzfeed
CBS
CNBC
CNN
Daily Beast
GPG
Huffington Post
LA Times
McClatchy
More
MSNBC
National Journal
NBC
NPR
New Yorker
NYT
People
Politico
Reuters
The Hill
WaPo
WSJ
Vice
Vox

If we distrust the news media why would they think we'd care about what the 70 news organizations had to say?

‘Not the enemy of the people’: 70 news organizations will blast Trump’s attack on the media


IMO, what they should do, is totally BOYCOTT, THE NON-HUMAN SCUM! Never report ANYTHING on IT!
I would love to see NOTHING REPORTED reported on IT, UNTIL IT'S THROWN OUT OF OUR WHITE HOUSE!
Not the enemy of liberals since they spew out what you want to hear.

Okay, we understand your hatred for President Trump. But he isn't "scum" and he isn't "non-human." He was elected Constitutionally in what was nearly (if not actually) a landslide election. A complete repudiation of the policies of the preceding eight long, difficult years.

He refers to much of the media (primarily MSNBC and CNN) as "fake news" for good reason. Much of what they claim is false. They make up stories and report them as truth. They ignore what is true ...the growth in our economy, the expansion of jobs, the low unemployment (which includes the lowest unemployment for black Americans in history), and a foreign policy that has resulted in the decimation of ISIS, renewed respect for America (yeah, some of our foreign "friends" complain ...so what? Let them).

He has taken us out of the illegal "Iran deal" Obama made on his own, without Congress, with an enemy of the United States. And he removed us from the unconstitutional "Climate Accord." (All such agreements must be made pursuant to our Constitution. It was not)

That some people don't like him isn't a reason to remove him from office. A lot of people, me included, didn't like Obama. Obama is responsible for the destruction of probably the best health care system in the world. With Obamacare, it became unaffordable for a vast number of people, with deductibles in the ten's of thousands, and premiums higher than a mortgage payment, meaning the insurance was worthless for all but a catastrophic health event. Many people lost their jobs, and many full time jobs became part time. People had to work two jobs to survive, and unemployment and people on welfare hit record levels.

The claim that "he lost the popular vote" is invalid. We aren't a democracy. We are 50 sovereign states, and each state votes independently for President. He won more states; i.e., more electoral votes than Hillary. Hillary only took a low number of more heavily populated states.

And, by the way, President Trump doesn't "fume." He's the President. He can have the TV's on AF One tuned to whatever channel he chooses. I wouldn't have them on CNN either. And I also wouldn't believe anything the New York Times says. It's well known that they hate the President. The "Newspaper of record" isn't worth using for fishwrap. It's trash.

Shame that there are people like the OP who believe the garbage being spewed by the slanted Media.
She, most Liberals and the Liberal media just continue to get worse every week.

The great part is that Trump is turning out to be a pretty darn good President. That's driving them crazy.

I agree totally that any coverage of his BS should be boycotted. He thrives on the attention and I have often said he should be deprived of it.

So, you and the OP don't care to have real news reported ...only the BS from CNN and MSNBC, the sour pusses on the airwaves who look like death warmed over.
