“The media should be embarrassed and humiliated and keep its mouth shut and just listen for a while,” Mr. Bannon said in an interview on Wednesday.

“I want you to quote this,” Mr. Bannon added. “The media here is the opposition party. They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.”

Trump's DOJ needs to investigate this as possible voter fraud:

ITEM---Journalists Dined at Top Clinton Staffers
Homes Days Before Hillary's announcement of her candidacy

Wikileaks via Breitbart ^ | October 17 2016 | Ezra Dulis / FR Posted by grey_whiskers

ITEM..... Several top journalists and TV news anchors RSVPed “yes” to attend a private, off-the-record gathering at the New York home of Joel Benenson, the chief campaign strategist for Hillary Clinton, two days before she announced her candidacy in 2015, according to emails Wikileaks published from John Podesta’s accounts.

ITEM---The guest list for an earlier event at the home of John Podesta was limited to reporters who were expected to cover Clinton on the campaign trail. --snip--

==============================================

ITEM---Wikileaks revealed earlier that late night talk host Stephen Colbert, and his team at Comedy Central, were making TV episodes at the request or order of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) back in April of 2013.

So, viewers thought they were vote-smart because they’re informed by a comedian, yet same said comedian was doing Hillary’s bidding the whole time.

ITEM----I hope talk hosts Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Bill Maher, Seth Myers, Trevor Noah and Conan O’Brien have their lawyers on retainer and speed dial.

ITEM....because if the Trump Administration uncovers that the DNC and the Clintons were directly working with any member of media and their writing staff during the 2016 Presidential election, they could be charged with violating Federal election laws.

The NYT, evidencing, daily, open warfare between their proggy political insurgency and the President of the US. They pervert, deceive, distort and slander on every line of every article about this president.

I think this is part of an outrage dilution strategy.

“The media has zero integrity, zero intelligence, and no hard work.”

Bingo.

The MSM is done. Their dwindling audience is now smaller than Trump's following on social media.

As Dick Cheney told a reporter recently, "we don't need you anymore”.

But it's ok. They can all be retrained to work in the coal mines that Trump will reopen.

“They can all be retrained to work in the coal mines that Trump will reopen.”

Obammy recently said something about the newly unemployed becoming drone pilots. IIRC

Sorry for being vague on the thread. I had already freepmailed to Dog about the Scott Adams Dilbert blog. That is what I was referring to. The link is here:

Adams is not really one of us, but he understands better than most what Trump is up to.

The media in the USA is absolutely powerless now thanks to the internet. Look how much they bashed Trump while he was campaigning and still he won.

It's also to get them to chase the stick. When Teddy said "Carry a big stick", now we know what he meant - the MSM will chase it no matter how far it is thrown. AMANpour is proof-of-concept.
