The media crossed the line during the DEBATES
Which Trump won all of them anyway!
Opened a lot of eyes
Media never regained its creds as an impartial news source

Wallace among the worst offenders
Took the “ fair and balanced” away from “ fair and balanced”

"....I believe that crosses an important line....."

What is the "important line" that was crossed? Is that like the red line that Obama laid down in Syria and ultimately it didn't mean anything? Or is it that Trump has honestly and correctly exposed the Leftist media for who they really are? I still don't know what "important line" Trump crossed. Wallace never really explains what he means.

Trump is saying that the lying, fake news media types are the enemy of the America people and I couldn't agree more. They are not doing their jobs of reporting objectively. They are very subjective, to the point of making stuff up to match their agendas. They are deliberately lying to the American people and trying to convince them that Trump is the problem, not them.

I believe that they are in cahoots with the #NeverTrumpers and Obama and Hillary's "Resist" campaign to destroy Trump. They publicize the "leaks" as real news, when in fact, someone who leaked those storiesy to the media has a not-Trump agenda themselves.

Anyone with "half a brain", as Rush would say, can't watch CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS or NBC or read the NY Times, or the Washington Post, and not come away with the distinct impression that these people hate Trump and are doing everything they can to get rid of him. It's not rocket science. It's very plain to see.

If the media is deliberately trying to disparage Trump and his leadership only one month into this first term, then what else would you call these people? The enemy of the American people is a spot-on assessment by Trump.

The media crossed the line a long time ago, however, they came out of the closet when GWB was president and it has continued for sixteen years.

When the media claims that Trump threw out MLK’s bust, to aggravate an already combustible racist atmosphere in America, they casually said when caught, “that was a mistake.” No, it wasn’t a mistake, it was a lie that went around the world. Then another fake story of sick bed wetting, and that went around the world, but then admittedly...that was a mistake. No, that also was a lie that happened to be caught. And on and on for dozens of issues, every single day.. So you are wrong Mr. Wallace, this media is beyond the pale for deliberate lying, and horrible editing in a concerted pack-journalistic attempt to attack and diminish a sitting president... and they have admitted it. It is your colleagues who are far over the line, and a check and balance on their power that doesn’t exist, needs to exist. Trump is the only check so far. (Perhaps the Alt-media that caught the likes of a lying Dan Rather and thankfully threw him out of polite society.)

We now live in a tag team, mendacious orgy of pack journalists, where one imp quickly mimics the lies of another, and then the guilty originator issues a weak “it was mistake” while the original lie is blasted throughout the digital world. The Podesta emails have revealed a frightening collusion of major media figures secretly offering the resources of their massive publications, and their own personal efforts to advance the Democrat party and Hillary’s election - and you say no check nor balance is needed? They arrogantly make up lies about a chaotic White House and then claim “see, the White House is in chaos.” They forward debate questions to one candidate before the debate, and you say no check or balance is needed. They are arrogant liars. They are just like the young man who murdered both his parents but begs forgiveness from the court because he happens to be an orphan. Plain and unchecked chutzpah.

I am glad Trump is fighting back, it is about time someone put these arrogant liars in their place. Go directly to the people and do not let the message be narrated by the media because they lie. A check on their power needs to be instated in the US politic and Trump is doing it.
