journalism, in a typical pattern of self-congratulatory excess, has dusted off an old cliche to announce that it is once again "speaking truth to power."

Only one problem here: the MSM has had all the power for as long as anyone can remember, and DJT is speaking the truth to it. The MSM thinks it is speaking truth to power, but what it is actually engaged in is attempting to suppress truth by power--and failing, God be thanked.

Their lips are sore from 8 years of kissing Obama’s ass.

Actually, the media has not been speaking truth to power, or to us, for years and years.

What they’ve been doing is lying through their teeth to advance the Liberal/Left agenda.

Neither I, nor my family, pay them any mind anymore as they are not credible.

I’m sure the people who pay big bucks to advertise on traditional media venues are tickled pink about this.

They went on Vacation on January 20, 2009 at 12:01 P.M. EST.

No need to Criticize the POTUS, they just phoned it in.

They found their way back on January 20, 2017 at 12:01 P.M. EST.

Speaking lies to no power.

Same mission, propagandize for the left, and attack the right. The form that takes only depends on who is in power. Nobody is fooled anymore.

“It was in polite hibernation, on its back, with President Barack Obama in the White House.” says the author...Way too gentle a description for the political sex act the media was performing for eight long years...

More like gettin’ their knees dirty, gobblin’ FUBO...Because unlike Trump, he was pushing the agenda the media worship, the religion of Progressivism...

Harry Truman was told to “Give ‘em Hell, Harry!” Pres. Truman replied “I just tell the truth, and they think it’s Hell...”

If anyone’s “speaking truth to power” these days it’s Trump...
