Well, ABC, there’s not much you can do about it other than maybe trying to convince Congress to add an an extra hour to each day so CNN can attack President Trump 25x7 instead of just a measly 24x7. I wonder if anyone would even notice the difference.

Or that “part of the First Amendment” in which the MSM fails to find any fault, only victimization, of the PC class.

Openly hostile #fakenews sources accuse Trump of being hostile towards them, that’s actually funny.

These assclowns don’t have a clue, he’s not closing down the First Amendment, they can speak and write about anything they want, and they will do just that.

I miss the propagandass press nightly drivel. With the Trump presser, I am not retching and tossing and turning with the regular acid stomach churning pains of the last 8 miserable years.

I sleep soundly and do hope all the whining press jackals feel as healthy and sleep as restfully as I do now. They need their rest so as I can be properly entertained by their lamentations and beating of breasts. Buckets of fun and deep belly laughs are in my future—and I hope yours.

Maybe now would be a good time for the FEC to investigate the Fake News Media for all the Illegal In Kind Contributions they made using “Engineered” news Stories to favor Hillary.

see Wikileaks

i serioisly wish theyd drop the antiquated pressers altogether and just use the new media and twitter to do their releases. they have a wh press release page and feeds.

all the press does is hack up whatever they say, doesnt matter they are physically there or not’to do it. take away their ability to control the agenda with their leading questions.

I'd go on the air and complain about it; if I had access to a large, national network.

These news outlets are nothing buy propagandists. Every night they each have the same stories broadcasting, even at the same times. OMG! And, it has been that way for decades.

If you see one broadcast a night, you've seen them all.

Like bullies who have had their way for a long time,
they are shocked when someone actually hits them back.

This kind of stupid hyperbole is another reason not to call on them for questions. This is not a first amendment question. It is a ‘talking point’ of the kind distributed by political opponents. Another reason to ignore them. And as the article explains, the subject of Flynn was brought up by a reporter. The media can print whatever they like. They want to make Flynn the issue for another day, and ignore the issue in front of them. Which if they had a level head, they would know was a big deal - Trump saying he has no particular preference for the ‘2 state solution’ is a major policy shift for the USA that imo pales in comparison to day 3 of Flynn.

free speech??

if they’re there to report on the event, then the only speech would be Netanyahu’s and Trump’s.

unless they were expecting to make STATEMENTS instead of reporting on the event.

Again, sounds like Trump made the right call.

Why aren’t they “outraged” against the “shutting down” of free speech on the college campii across the country? Hey abc! Blow it out your wahzoo.

“The First Amendment simply guarantees the right of people to freely write what they want.”

They just make up stuff anyway so I don’t see what their problem is.

ABC analyst Matt Dowd proves he lacks an understanding of the First Amendment.

The lying jerks tried to throw the election and are now trying to throw POTUS.

The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.

Don’t patronize the enabling parent companies: Disney, Comcast, Time Warner.

Karl sneered that Trump called on “friendly ... news organizations.”

That was Obama's M.O. too; strangely none of the friendly liberal news organizations thought it was bad, back then.
