I like your idea of Spicer opening his news briefings with examples of the latest fake news! Then he should state the truth.

He should also name the media who reported such and refuse to allow them questions that day.

The four were fired.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/26/politics/top-state-department-officials-asked-to-leave-by-trump-administration/index.html

Why were they fired? We can speculate. We know that the Undersecretary for Management is in charge of logistics. This includes computer security and running the embassies.

It was the section that had looked the other way when Hillary set up her unsecured basement e-mail server, and it was the section that oversaw the Benghazi fiasco. So isn’t hard to guess why Trump/Tillerson decided they had to go (and good riddance).

That’s a good start, but with the State Department, the swamp runs deep - much more house cleaning is needed.

Ya, good.

I would be even be stronger. After enough #FAKENEWS LIES, they should be banished!

Why let the lying opposition party even in the house? Kick em out - for good.

They are not there to do their job, report the news. They think they are there to create the news. Therefore, they are fired. They have forgotten what their job is and is and they are no longer doing it.

Fire them!!

Actually it’s a clip from the Godfather.Actor Alex Rocco,born Alex Petricone and a member of the Winter Hill Gang of Whitey Bulger fame, says to Michael Corleone, “Do you know who I am? I’m Moe Green. I made my bones (killed someone?) while you were going out with cheerleaders.” Later the character is shot to death.

Howie plays the clip when talking about the Kennedys or Kerry who feel so entitled to get away with stuff.Patrick Kennedy meanwhile, Ted Kennedy’s son, is “the runt of the litter of the runt of the litter”.This is a different Patrick Kennedy.

Starting to wonder if these were the clowns that pushed through the 11th hour 500+ refugee stunt.

“Sean Spicer needs to keep a list of these #FAKENEWS items and at the beginning of each WH press briefing he needs to read some of them.”

Then he should add, “Because you have just presented truly FAKENEWS, you will not be called on for a week. BTW, 3 times and you’re out for good.”
