President-elect Donald J. Trump picked David Friedman as his ambassador to Israel. Friedman, unlike so many previous ambassadors, likes Israel and doesn't like Islamic terrorists. So the New York Times decided to let him have it with four hit pieces in one day.

There were all the usual smears and calumnies. David Friedman is a "hard-liner", he's "right-wing" and he endangers the non-existent "peace process." But there was a major problem with one of the attacks by Matthew Rosenberg.

Maybe it’s time to lease the floor where they actually write their trash to a clown organization. Would serve a more useful purpose.

If you really want to push faux news, report poll numbers as news, like “thirty percent of the electorate distrusts Donald Trump’s policies”. Then say nothing positive. Build a wall of negativity around your subject. My local news media WPXI-TV did it on two separate newscasts this week. They have to push the negative agenda, you know?

While I did see all the fake news hit pieces in the Slimes, I didn’t see them come “under fire” for it.

Trump should rent the eight floors and start a new newspaper: The Trump Times: Motto all the Truth that the NY Times refuses to print. Go in completion and beat them at the news stand! One of his children could run the paper—that or Newt, or any loyalist Trumpsters. That or make it a Homeless center for Islamic Radicals.
