The Corporate Media has been against Trump from the beginning. Partly because the were Pro Leftist Clinton, partly because Trump was running a campaign without paying them off with Massive Ad Buys -- but mostly because he was not afraid of them.
He just goes around them and straight to the people.
They are in a Hysterical Meltdown.
Dont' be so foolish. There is a reason Trump is avoiding the Fourth Estate: No Questions. Do you realize it has been since July that we have spoken to, and asked questions directly, of our incoming President?
As long as he suppresses the media, just like the great dictators from Europe, the peasants (you and I ) will have no idea what he is really up to. And that is exactly what he wants. No accountability to the American people. Not all of us believe his horse manure, you know.
Have you noticed all the 'secret" little meetings that have popped up in the days since Trump excluded the press? The directive for foreign dignitaries to use Trump Hotels. Who ordered that? Three guesses. The meeting with the South Asians? When did that happen? The meeting with the Japanese, where Trump Corporate Interests were present, but only through the Japanese Press did the Americans even know there was a meeting? Or how about the meeting with the folks from Mumbai where Trump is trying to promote his buildings? What did Trump promise them from our Government that we don't know about?
Oh.....you really like it that the President is off on his own little operation with a bunch of right wing generals by his side, and no press present to record his charades?
Trust me, when you discover that it is YOU they are after with their operation because your neighbor ratted you out, you'll be dying for some documentation...and some press people to keep the situation honest.
Just think about the number of police shootings recently which the police swore were appropriate...until the video (much of it from private individuals) was presented. Like it or not, THAT is what the press does for us on the Governmental level. With a tyrant in the White House rewriting the rules, the fourth estate becomes even more important.
Awwwwwwwwwww. Someone needs a hanky. Or a sippy cup.
I am very concerned about the suppression of free speech and Trump's anti-democracy dictatorship.
As far as suppression of free speech, I've seen far more of that out of the Zuckerbergs. Fascism does not begin by someone taking his argument directly to the people. It's what made Reagan so popular.
I've said this over and over, you are not going to win by throwing out "Fascist" "Racist" "Nazi". You can only win by finding someone that can bring a better message to the people.
"In a crushing body blow to the pushers of the so-called "Fox Effect," which claims the conservative media is dragging the left into the center, UCLA political science professor Tim Groseclose in Left Turn claims that "all" mainstream news outlets have a liberal bias in their reporting that makes even moderate organizations appear out of the mainstream and decidedly right-wing to news consumers who are influenced by the slant."
After the Wikileaks revealed the main stream media's dishonesty, I don't blame Trump for snubbing them. They have been getting away with it for years.
They are supposed to report the news in a fair and unbiased manner. Instead they create the news and have made themselves no better than tabloid news.
the biased, bought and paid for leftist shills that have reported all manner of inuendo, falsehood, and outright lies about one candidate
List these alleged innuendoes, falsehoods, and outright lies, will you, please? Thanks!
