Take them out of the press pool, and add conservative news sites into it. Don’t let the fake news into press conferences. Do it.

Love it. Bernie Goldberg was on the attack against Trump with Chris Wallace. I thought Bernie hated fake news. What is his deal with Trump. Another never trumper?

Winning. In any case somehow the Republic functioned without press briefings for 150 years. Don’t they get invited at the pleasure of the POTUS?

LOL! Truly! It just gets better and better. How long have we been complaining about this media? Decades, and FINALLY we have a POTUS who is sticking it to them and I think it’s having an effect. Today I read an article about an illegal who killed someone after being deported numerous times. Who reported it? CNN! Incredible!

They aren’t licensed. They provide “content” that the cable systems purchase with your monthly overcharges...

FTA>> The White House has withdrew Obama-era federal protection for transgender students.

“has withdrew” Apparently CNN is also grammar-challenged.

Great idea. Isn’t that what one of the MSM did? If so, it would be great to see how they like it when the shoe is on the other foot.

Not “permitted”? No, they were not invited.

But that truth garners less sympathy.

I have always wondered how the pool is chosen. Obviously the big players have always had representatives in the room.

In the interest of diversity, level playing fields, etc., I don’t see why the big players should get preferential treatment, particularly when they are biased.

I think a good plan might be if President Trump were to allocate regular slots for a few honest news outlets, then have a batch of them either picked at random or on some sort of rotation so that any organization would have an equal chance of getting in. This way, the liars would still have a chance so they could not scream that they were being banned or censored, but they would be on equal footing with the Podunk Weekly Dispatch, the local high school newspaper, and Joe Six-Pack’s blog.
