If he doesn’t pull federal funds to pbs can he fund conservative programing. Which is the minority view on tv.
Trump is right to point out the bias.
Or should he be more like George W. Bush, like some seem to think, and not say a word about it?
Please stop clutching your pearls so tightly.
You’d think they’d drop the “Trump is a moron” meme now that’s he’s been shown to be smart enough to be one of a few dozen people in American history to be elected president, but no. The left creates a persona for anyone on the right, and sticks to it like the band playing as the Titanic slips into the icy waters of the North Atlantic.
And it never has been funny.
Was watching Johnny Carson and Carol Burnett re-runs last night. They made me laugh until I cried! The whole country loved them, not just the pseudo-sophisticates. Only un-funny Leftists are given a big-stage comedy platform anymore, sad.

I guess SNL figures that splitting the skits is good enough. The Bubble is great.
“Better get your own show, Donald.”`
Trump had his own show for 14 years. He gave it up to be President.
The FCC has a responsibility to ensure that broadcast media provide programing that is accurate, wholesome and does not disparage American Values.
SNL, while some of their skits, such as Black Jeporady are occasionally funny, most are designed to attack our values.
If our values are under constant attack, we cannot enforce our values within our culture.
SNL is just an arm of the Dem media.
SNL has always been leftwing. Remember in the 70s they had Chevy Chase playing a klutzy Gerald Ford.
I don’t have a problem with him using it to communicate directly, but going after SNL is childish. Go after biased journolists & elites. Leave the comedy stuff alone.
I hope so, too.
I also hope he finally figures out that he won this election by appealing to people who don't give a f#%& about Saturday Night Live.
SNL has been slamming conservative principles for decades and until Trump, no one in government has stood up to SNL or other comedy programs.
So now, it is long past due that a president step-in and influence via legislation or FCC regulatory measures to make sure that White House officials approve their skits are fair and balanced.
Seriously. Enough. He better get used to it. I hope he knows they will never love him. And he likes to be liked.
Why do you think the government should do this?
This will lead to the fairness doctrine and will be used to create even more of a controlled message.
Let freedom of speech happen.
Conservatives need to come up with counter to this...NOT THE GOVERNMENT!
While he is at Trump should eliminate the FCC and 99% of the other departments that just waste our money and hurt productivity and increase the overall acceptance of mediocrity.
Trump is beginning to overdo this kind of thing. It was one thing tweeting all the time during the campaign, but now he is President-Elect & he has better things to do.
.
Disagree.
Bush ignored it and stopped communicating and we never knew if he knew what was going on.
Tweeting,i hope Trump continues. ..a reaffirming,uniting gesture and communication technique. More and more people will get with his program...and the media cannot misrepresent. I look forward to MSM asking what he thinks about something...or his press sec asking (like Kellyanne),and the reply being,”read my Tweet,it was clear and i commented on that already”.
I agree. He is continually saying “Hey, this garbage does not meet out standards as Americans”. It’s no different than telling one of his apprentices to tuck in his shirt or whatever.
Some people don’t like Twitter. Tough. Some people didn’t like horseless carriages either.
Some people think that communicating directly with millions of people without filtering everything through the MSM is somehow un-Presidential. Tough. It’s a new age.
I agree... if Donald Trump wants, let him tweet till he’s pushing up daisies.
This is NOT normal. It isn’t SUPPOSED to be normal. This is of God.
