NBC Seethes Over Trump’s ‘Ugly’ ‘Un-American’ Attacks on Press
Newsbusters ^ | February 16, 2017 | Scott Whitlock

Posted on 02/16/2017 7:06:44 PM PST by kevcol

Chuck Todd and the other journalists at NBC are openly fuming that Donald Trump continues to call out the biased coverage of his administration. During Thursday’s press conference, an angry Todd tweeted, “This not a laughing matter. I'm sorry, delegitimizing the press is un-American.”

He later whined, “Press bashing may feel good to folks but when it's done by people in power, it's corrosive. Take off your partisan hats for a second.” During live coverage, Lester Holt chided, “It was contentious. It was ugly at moments and we haven't seen anything like it.”

And he kept bringing up Hillary giving away 20% of our uranium to Russia with her “stupid plastic reset button.” Priceless.

That was a great moment. And he correctly said that Hillary should have said that she received questions in advance.

Demonstrates her lack of ethics.

President Reagan might be proud, but he also might be a touch jealous.

Trump is out-Reaganing Ronald Reagan.

The left feels that they can say anything, but when their vicious corrosive bullshit is challenged they become even more unhinged

"...an angry Todd tweeted, “This not a laughing matter. I'm sorry, delegitimizing the press is un-American...”

A 'Press' that functions as cheerleaders for the Socialist Party Democrats, and as attack dogs against any political leaders trying to follow the United States Constitution, is Anti-American.
Today's MSM naysayers deserve a lot harsher treatment than the mild tongue lashing they received today.

The First Amendment does not mention “the press.”

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

LOL!

Reagan was a gracious man. Trump is an NYC street fighter. And I guess that’s what we need right now.

I wonder how Ronald Reagan would have reacted had he been president after 9/11.

Both awesome men, perfect for the times in which they came into power.

Take care, FRiend. It’s going to be a wild ride. ;!

Everyone sees the press for what it is, an arm of the RAT party. Then they complain when they are called out on their bias.

The First Amendment does not mention “the press.”

Freedom of speech is an individual right.

“The press” is just a bunch of individuals.

There is nothing sacred about “the press.”


False, the press is mentioned;

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

There is nothing sacred about “the press.”

Their freedom of speech does not supersede that of individuals.
