That would be nice, but I’d settle for a hard, directed Justice Department antitrust action against the 8 Big Media companies. Bust them up.

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump Dec 31

Here you go!

(hat tip Dave barry) “The New York Times and Washington Post, seeking to improve their understanding of pro-Trump America are launching Operation Outreach."

"Teams of reporters will travel to non-coastal regions carrying rucksacks full of chewing tobacco and moon pies, which they will trade with the "natives" in return for colorful quotes about their political views, religious beliefs, sex practices involving livestock, etc.”

By Passing the so called “Main Stream Media” (aka the Globalist Media) , and reaching the people directly.

Love it! Go Trump!

I am getting a feeling the MSM might try something silly like a Twitter News Channel or something. Right next to CNN.

[Rennes Templar]

All I need is 18 million more and I’ll catch him.

[Chode]

w00t!!!

[Mouton]

Well the good news for the MSM is they will not have to differentiate now between their opinion page and their news slant.

[Lopeover]

Very good!

Being a biased media during an election has consequences!

I have a Twitter account. I used to use it to follow some (semi-)famous people, but dropped them since they went full libtard. I started following Trump this morning. Don’t know why I hadn’t thought of doing so before now.

Twitter isn’t that important to me. However, if my President is going to use it to speak to We The People without the lying filter of the MSM, it behooves me to at least follow the man.

How many times has Trump boldly announced a policy on Twitter only to have Conway or one of his other spokesmen say, "well what he really meant was..." He needs to reign in his people and make it clear that what he says is what HE means and not what they think he means.

I don’t do Facebook but I do use Twitter. A few weeks ago, our corporate attorney at work sent out a Social Media Policy guide.

Basic stuff like if I make a product recommendation, be sure to identify that I am employed by the company and that it’s my opinion etc. and not a company recommendation.

I replied that I confine my social media strictly to topics of religion and politics.

I’m considering setting up a separate Twitter account following only DJT

“He’s got more followers than me. :)”

I’m sure you’re close though...never surrender.

[Demanwideplan]

Trump might relent just a little bit once the msm starts doing the job it was intended to do. The msm must protect us from the gooberment, not lie in bed with it.

[FreeReign]

Sean Spicer who said he expects Trump "will boldly use" Twitter to make major policy announcements.

Excellent!

[Free America52]

DJT’s tweets will mean that MSM has to report the news not create the news.

[M-cubed]

“He doesn’t have to have it funneled through the media.” <<

Good business practice....Cut out the middleman...

[goodnesswins]

I don’t see eating etc descriptions on my Twitter...now Facebook is different

[FrankR]

If it freaks out the media so much, why do they broadcast his every Tweet on TV and in the paper.

Their fertile ground for growing lies is rapidly turning into a dust bowl.
