They need to start the imposition of massive fines on enemedia entities for slander and libel.

The bums want to go after our second amendment while they rape the first amendment, while hiding behind it.

Watch the movie 1984. A couple times. Then pull your TV off the wall and throw it in the trash. Problem solved.

+ Truth News Network

But how do we keep it from being bought out by bribing globalist interest?

2 things Trump & Republicans could do

1) Use the Anti-Trust laws to break them up. Something like 90% of all media is owned by just 6 Billionaires.

2) Change cable to “A la carte”. Right now, it doesn’t matter if you watch CNN, ESPN or MSNBC, they still get paid by everyone who subscribes to cable or dish.

Both of these would increase competition, and many of these lying networks will be forced to change or they will go out of business.

I’ve been preaching this for YEARS!

We need to be in front of every major media affiliate in EVERY city, handing out REAL news until they notice!

Those who SHOW UP, rule! The liberals know this!

I still see the word “mainstream” or other derivatives used here more than “hate”, “manipulative”, or other adjectives to describe some of these media entities who are less interested in responsible journalism than in the future and success of our country. I’m not saying that the “Hate Media” (HM) is all bad. But time and time again they have proven themselves to be out to turn the USA into part of a new world order of socialism ruled by the oligarchic well-connected elite. First and foremost, people need media outlets that are committed to TRUTH and not any bias.

It could mean “My Story Media” or “My Slant Media”.

I Haven’t watched ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS in over 20 years, only watched MSNBC twice, left CNN in 2013 right after the government shut down when I watched them push the idea that Cruz had shut the government down when I knew it was actually Harry Reid, who blocked the budget bill. They also attacked conservatives, argued with t hem, cut them off in mid sentence, then rolled out the red carpet for Democrats.

I still watch Fox, but double check almost everything online. I’ve rarely caught them lying. Some of their people, like Megyn Kelly, show serious left leaning bias, or anti Trump bias, which is not their job. I Can’t get One America News.

Count commercials, you’ll see who controls what they publish. In the case of CNN it’s pharmaceutical companies. A distant second is insurance. I haven’t taken a definite count, need to, but Fox seems to be dominated by drug companies too, so it surprises me they speak out against Obamacare at all. Drug companies are making a major fortune since it was enacted. That’s about the only anomaly I’ve seen, Fox still speaks out about issues nobody else covers. Hillary’s emails, illegal immigration, the anti Trump protests and riots out west...but I still don’t trust them.

I also avoid the companies they advertise if possible, but I’ve done that for years. I figure if a company has the millions to sink into advertising on TV they don’t need my $2. I buy generic when possible, most of my clothes come from resale shops, it’s not hard to find near new pretty often.

Then there’s Trump...he’s been hitting the media hard, especially the NY Times and Washington Post. They are the two that have been the most dishonest and the most anti Trump in this election. He’s already brought a lot of attention to their dishonesty, and as his term sails along, he’ll do it some more. I think by the time he leaves office, we’ll see an entirely different media landscape.

That’s got to be their new name. Makes them one with their most disliked entity.
