And he brags about it.

For some reason they expect us to trust them as opposed to the media

https://www.aol.com/article/news/201...edia/23020592/

Maine Gov. Paul LePage insinuated that he feeds false stories to the news media, whom he called "vile," "inaccurate" and "useless" in an interview with Maine's WGAN-AM radio station, the Associated Press reported.

"I just love to sit in my office and make up ways so they'll write these stupid stories because they are just so stupid, it's awful," LePage said.

Media lies to the people so Governor LePage lies to the media....seems fine to me!

So how do the people discern when he is lying or do you simply shut everything he says out? Is that what one should expect from a governor?

So the mainstream media like CNN and MSNBC are quick to run these fake news stories without verifying it? Nice to know

Republicans admit to deliberate misinformation campaign and the base eats it up. America may truly be doomed.

If they interview him, and he lies during the interview, then who is the liar, him or the media?

They are his words.

He is attacking the media in order to cover up for his earlier comments. This is becoming a standard line of defense in right-wing politics today.

Haha, that's funny!

Most of the news media isn't about news anymore it's left-wing dingbats spewing forth slanted news couched in propaganda.

It's garbage!

How's that Russian connection with the election going you idiots? No doubt Vladimir Putin sent over ten million Russians undercover to vote for Trump. You know it's true so report it and worry about finding proof later on.

Actually I stand corrected, as you have demonstrated over and over again you don't need proof to spew garbage.

Journalism and journalists in America, for the most part you're just liars but I don't blame you for it you're just following your left-wing dingbat professors you learned it all from in college.
