One of the best things Trumps done is call out the fake news media machine.

Dear Chris,

Americans expect truth from journalists, and during your career, you, Chris, have been better at it than most. However, you’ve taken a distinct turn in recent years, and frankly, it’s startling. More specifically, when you omit key facts while making a point, I start questioning your intellectual honesty. Americans deserve the whole truth, not just facts that support a pre-determined narrative.

If President Trump can lie and mislead the people, then why shouldn't the media? At least the media doesn't brag about itself most of the time.

The Marxist Media that is the state of the legacy US media has less regard for the truth than Pravda in its heydey as state TV in Soviet Union.

Media’s job is to act as watchdogs (telling the truth) to protect the public interest. Obviously they have failed miserably at that!

Oh gosh, I don’t know. Maybe because two wrongs have never made a right? Or maybe because the very definition of news media is supposed to be they committed to telling or exposing the truth?

How on Earth can you possibly support the notion that it’s okay for the news media to lie? Have we really sunk to that point?

Do you not pay attention to advertising by media or back patting segments? The media brags about itself ALL the time. I haven’t seen too many cases of bragging about itself for telling lies but I feel like that day is coming.

Chris Wallace is an inside the beltway, Far Left, Status Quo PROGRESSIVE. He relies on the current state of what we now call the Swamp. Another term for go along, to get along insider, CORRUPT politics. This is the environment Wallace loves, and wants to maintain to the detriment of average, working Americans. Trump is a threat to that. Pure and simple..
