WHAT THESE WHINERS IN THE CORRESPONDENT’s DINNER NEVER MENTION IS THIS:

it was under the auspices of the ESPIONAGE ACT that President Obama cracked down on journalists “more than any other administration since Woodrow Wilson,” according to Michael Barone at the Washington Examiner in 2013.

See here:

He cites 20-year veteran of The New York Times, David Sanger, as having called the Obama administration “the most closed, control-freak administration” he’d ever witnessed.

Also, the DOJ had been secretly dipping into the personal and professional communications of Fox News Washington correspondent James Rosen. The case involved Rosen’s interactions with a State Department contractor monitoring North Korea’s nuclear program.

What troubled the media community most about the DOJ response was the use of search warrants to investigate a reporter and the threat to prosecute him under the terms of Espionage Act as an “as an aider, abettor and/or co-conspirator.”

Did they ever mention the hacking of Sharryl Atkinson’s computer?

Nope, they never mentioned the above at all.

What to do about the lie when repeated enough becomes the ‘truth’?
Today’s ‘Free Press’ are nothing more than ‘Progressive’ Activists. They do not report ‘just the facts’ any longer.

Trump is not Hitler.

How many political opponents of Trump have been assassinated or put in jail? Zero.

How made media personalities who wrote critical, even scathing, articles about Trump have been assassinated or put in jail? Zero.

Now contrast that with what happens in Putin’s Russia or Red China.

Trump is not the real threat, let’s be honest here.

Paging Bob Woodward to discuss his experience with the Obama administration.

From the Daily Beast about Michelle Wolf: “Michelle Wolf is the future of stand-up comedy.” She sure is. A collection of no talent, unfunny political turds that are taking up bandwidth.

Trump definitely poses a threat to the leftist press propaganda and lies. He throws it back at them more effectively than anyone in modern US history and that’s driving them nuts.

And of course not a word about what they know he wants them to do...

Simply be honest and fair.

Fat chance...

President Trump is not stopping the media from printing or airing fake news. He is merely pointing it out and that has the msm upset.

The presstitutes and media whores whine and wail about censorship...even as they criticize Trump multiple times per day to a degree that has never been seen in this country. Nixon got treated more fairly (and the press/media HATED him with a passion).

So where, exactly, is the censorship? Where are the jailed journalists, where are the shuttered papers and networks being denied broadcast licenses?

You know, what is most infuriating about these folks is that they think that we are so stupid as to believe their BS. They hold us in contempt...and now you know why the public feels exactly the same about them.
