Trump hates the NY Times even though he as sat for interviews with them.

He calls it fake. He says is will fail and cease to exist within a few years.

He constantly makes remarks like "nothing good comes from the New York Times".

In the mean time the New York Times received a Pulitzer Prize. For what you might ask?

For a series of articles about how Trump has dodged paying taxes his entire life.

Go figure.

Yeah, as it turns-out, you can just invent a story and win a Pulitzer Prize...

Oh yeah .. The Daily Caller … the same rag that:

Denies climate change
Published a misleading edited video about NPR
Paid women to make false prostitution claims about New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez
Made false claims trying to link the Clintons with being in debt to Muslim nations.
Encouraged violence against protesters with a video showing a car plowing through protesters, with the headline "Here's A Reel Of Cars Plowing Through Protesters Trying To Block The Road" with the back ground music of Ludacris' singing "Move *****."
Has repeatedly made comments in support of white nationalist with ties to white supremacists.


There are many other out right fake and inflammatory accusations made by this source.

Trumpers want no dissent. All must bow to their Orange God. Trumpers believe Trump when he says he has a "big brain" and knows about nearly every subject that anyone else.

Thankfully there are still those that retain their rationality and do not swoon whenever Trump opens his mouth or will give him a pass on his rampant corruption.

What can be complicated is learning to do research. Learning to validate sources and dismiss the unsubstantiated. Learning that almost nothing is %100 and that new facts can create epiphanies that open whole new universe's. That truth is absolute but not always infallible as new truths can substantiate or replace old conceptions.

None of this matters to Trump followers as they will believe anything he says, even if it is a blatant and obvious lie that changes every day. Even if it is a media source that has been proven over and over to be biased and corrupt and non-factual.

No one is saying the NYT is perfect but comparing it to The Daily Caller is like comparing Mogen David 20/20 to fine French wine.
