Thirty-one journalists have been attacked so far in 2018, according to the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker.

How many of those were investigating the First Felons?

Watched some PMSNBC last night. Oh, they're in full election attack mode alright. I've never seen anything like it. But, that's what socialists do.

Bunch of whiny babies.

[onedoug]

No cigar. Try again.

Oh yeah. This is really going to convince those deplorable peasants who support Trump that we're really looking out for their best interests and would never print anything that wasn't the Gospel Truth regarding the man. PLEASE! Don't they have any idea how ridiculous they sound?

So business as usual

“More than 300 news publications across the country are joining together...”

Ineffectual liberal jerk-offs.

Yawn.

[SaxxonWoods]

I predict this backfires and I’m looking forward to the result.

These guys are something else - did it ever dawn on them that COORDINATING their ATTACK on a guy actually getting something done for ordinary people is going to be underlining the point 45 is trying to make here?

The Press’ job is to keep EVERYBODY honest. They didn’t want that job any more. They went Mockingbird. Now they are upset they are being called on it.

They could always going back to their original job description. I’d actually buy their newspaper if there was the possibility of actual news appearing somewhere therein.

Anyone see that horrible, pinched-faced woman on Varney this morning?

She was from Kansas, comparing President Trump to Hitler and Stalin and all the time complaining about how the press is treated.

Never mind how she was treating the President.

A totally Hillary clone.

No one is attacking a ‘free press’ or the First Amendment... we're critiquing a ‘press’ that's biased, unfair, and toxic toward conservatives.

I remember a time when ‘the press’ didn't hire blacks (except for ‘black news’, or women (except for ‘cooking sections)... and now they won't hire conservatives. Our viewpoint is not included or wanted.

And just like blacks and women we're asking for a place at the table. And as usual biased newspapers are objecting on the grounds that ‘they are above criticism’...

" 'I hope you get raped and killed,' one person wrote to me just this week," MSNBC's Katy Tur said on air recently. " 'Raped and killed.' Not just me, but a couple of my female colleagues as well." She added that the letter ended with "MAGA," short for Trump's slogan, "Make America Great Again."

I'll bet money this hate mail was sent by a liberal pretending to be a conservative. Typical liberal tactic... see 'fake hate crimes': http://www.fakehatecrimes.org/

Katy Tur should turn this over to the FBI to be investigated rather than assuming a conservative wrote it. AND yes, liberals play members of the press to gin up their hatred of conservatives.

Apparently the editorial boards of some 300 newspapers are so self-absorbed they don't recognize how hysterically funny this really is. I'm not sure it even rises to the level of irony but it certainly is self-parody, rather on the level of that steady parade of Mafia figures that testified before Congress that there was no such thing as the Mafia. Trump has trolled a single parrot into squawking and suddenly the entire flock squawks in unison that there is no squawking in unison.

It's sad that every newspaper I subscribe to has fallen for this, but I cheer up when I reflect that that number is zero.

Trump can take comfort in the thought that you know you're over the target when you're taking flak.

[publius911]

Beyond the damage done at home, Trump's verbal attacks on reporters — blasting them as 'disgusting' and 'sick' and 'among the most dishonest human beings on earth' — put journalists around the world at greater risk.

They say that as if it were a bad thing...

Aside from that, expressing the truth is a bulletproof defense.

Just sayin'

[gogeo]

That meanie Trump is picking on us!

[foreverfree]

bump

[eyedigress]

All of the papers conspiring in a deluded collusion.

Not one independent thought with any of them.

Nice
