” ...it raises this question how journalists can avoid being part of the act, part of the entertainment?”

They might start by being real journalists and covering the news instead of foisting their opinions and slant on stories, and by stopping the endless negativity towards President Trump. However, I think it’s too late for that.

THere used to be a saying about not going after someone who buys ink by the barrel (i.e., newsmen) but that was in a day when newspapers represented the only way to reach vast audiences and shape their thinking. All that is undone by a President who uses twitter. And that is why they hate his use of twitter. It renders them useless. All their power, and perceived power, is just gone.

Someone recently reported that CNN paid the big airports around the country to only show CNN at the airports

"Look at what Trump's doing today. No! Trump is changing our lives for the worse!"

Correct, assuming you are a creature of the swamp.

Ed Harris is probably one of my favorite actors, but what insane lefty!

When Elia Kazan was being honored at the Academy Awards, he was one of very few who sat on his hands.

I guess Ed loves communism.

Trump is funnier than the "comedians" who try to mock him. People like Kimmel and Baldwin and Colbert are so filled with hate and smug superiority towards Trump that they can't be funny. As for Chuck Todd, he's an overpaid prick and I'll criticize him all I want.

The media's left-wing ideology, and idolization of people like Obama, are far more dangerous for democracy than Trump's making fun of reporters.

F. Chuck Todd:

Todd was born on April 8, 1972, in Miami, Florida, the son of Lois Cheri (née Bernstein) and Stephen Randolph Todd. He is Jewish on his mother’s side, and was raised Jewish. He graduated from Miami Killian Senior High School in Kendall, an unincorporated suburban community in greater Miami. Todd attended George Washington University from 1990 to 1994. He declared a major in political science and a minor in music, but never graduated.

“He is Jewish on his mother’s side”

No “sides” here. If your mother is Jewish, you are Jewish. Period.

If people laughing at Trump’s jabs at the media and Chuck Todd were irreparably damaging “our ability to function as rationally informed citizens,” then Zurawik needs to go talk to Todd’s NBC colleagues and his Meet the Press panel ASAP because they were having fun with it that morning.

Another lib stating his opinion as a fact and trying to manipulate people into agreeing by appealing to their emotions and desire for acceptance.

What blatant manipulation.

They want us to think, *Oh no. I’m damaging society. I can’t do that. I must not laugh at Trump jokes anymore or someone might think less of me.*

All CNN and MSNBC do is spout political poison out to the uninformed masses that watch their shows with no understanding what really is going on.

I do not watch either.

I laugh heartily everyday at something much funnier than Trump, and that’s the MSM, especially the Communist News Network (CNN).
