Executives from ABC News, NBC News, CBS News, Fox News and CNN spoke on Monday to compile a list of demands they will make to Donald Trump's campaign in response to continued efforts to restrict the press. On a call, senior representatives of the five major news networks discussed recent restrictive actions taken by the GOP presidential candidate's campaign and how they should respond. It's not clear what demands were formed by the group of network honchos.
Last week, campaign manager Corey Lewandowski threatened to blacklist CNN reporter Noah Gray for straying away from the designated "pen" for journalists. At another event in South Carolina on Friday, reporters clashed with Lewandowski and campaign press secretary Hope Hicks, who threatened to pull the credentials of reporters who were trying to interview Trump supporters before a rally. Political campaigns trying to restrict reporters to zoned off areas at events is nothing new, particularly during presidential campaigns.

Yeah, it is really amazing that the media that completely abdicated its responsibility of questioning the power of the presidency is now suddenly all uppity about Trump.
Truth!
This has got to be causing some chaos at Fox. Some of them have no problem with The Donald, and want to keep talking to him. I don’t think Hannity is against The Donald, and I also don’t think O’Reilly is against him. I get the feeling most everyone else would like to see him tank.
It isn’t odd at all. The MSM was all in the tank for obama dn would never put anything out there negative about him. Therein, lies the difference.
The thing with Trump that the media doesn’t like, he doesn’t put up with their crap and the media is being run by the ‘government under the direction of obuma and hillary’ ...
How dare anyone go up against these two critters....why they seem to think they walk on water!!!
GO TRUMP ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!
FOX is a PIAs. They are not our friend. FOX is a tool now.
There is no chance this will happen. Trump is a ratings bonanza. The MSM have become Trump’s b!tch!
...just like George Zimmerman's 911 call.
Yes they are a tool.
PRICELESS!
This media activism is a component of the TRUMP CARD, LLS.
This is the media’s in-kind contribution to the LLS. Not to a PAC, but a secret donor effort hidden inside an LLS arrangement.
FOX is right in there with Soros and the Clinton Foundation and Wall Street globalist donors for the TPP and the Cheap Labor Express.
Donors from Wall Street are supporting the rest of our field of candidates. What is that all about? It can’t be about trust.
Toward the end of last week, Kimberly Guilfoyle subbed for Greta, and Trump was a phone guest. I could sense a strong cordial rapport between the two. Their back and forth contained honest questions and honest answers. Very refreshing. It was as though Kimberly was putting on a clinic for Mee-ghan, how to conduct an honest interview.
Trump could walk on water, observed by a NY Times reporter. Do you know what the headlines in the NY Times would be the next day?
“Donald Trump Can’t Swim!”
CC
bring baseball bats to all Trump events....
Great analysis!!!
Oh! Really.
Remember when they lassoed the media at one of Hillary’s events. They looked like cattle ready for slaughter. Not a peep from the msm!
The media will get on their knees and beg for forgiveness just for the ratings.
Funny...
I don’t remember them squealing like this when both Obama and Clinton gave them orders about coverage.
Screw them. Call them out for the whining biased hacks that they are.
