Thursday on Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough urged Donald Trump to realize that “the press always wins” in fights withpoliticians. In the same hour, Scarborough criticized an editorial in The Wall Street Journal for not focusing on, what he considered to be, the most important points following former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s resignation.

Scarborough huffed, “Donald Trump has tried to delegitimize the courts…Don't screw with federal judges it never turns out well for you. And the courts won that round. He is trying to delegitimize the press the press has risen up over the past couple of weeks. And as I always say, don't fight the press, the press always wins. Ask Richard Nixon. The press always wins!”

They just refuse to understand that.

Ask Richard Nixon. The press always wins!”

That might have been true when there were only three major TV networks, and the Old Grey Lady and the WashPost still had some credibility. They showed their true colors during the Reagan era and every Republican Presidency since.

The difference today is that people have alternative news sources, be they FoxNews, and any number of internet sources, so they don't have to rely on the Dinosaur Media anymore. As a result, readership of the major newspapers and news magazine has dropped, and viewership of the old networks is diminishing as well. Old Joe better be careful, folks might decide they aren't interested in MSNBC, anymore, and then HE'LL lose.
