In the context of a discussion of the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's show and related matters, today's CNN This Morning aired a clip of Rep. Daniel Goldman [D-ActBlue Jeans] calling President Trump a "wannabe mob boss."
Meghan Hays, a former Biden aide and a CNN analyst, agreed with Goldman, then proceeded to claim:
"We are running dangerously close to state-run media . . . We are losing our democracy. They're dismantling democracy by doing this."
Accusing Trump of creating a "state-run media?" That's something of a new line of attack. And a laugh line at that.
Even without the likes of Kimmel and Stephen Colbert polluting the late-night airwaves with their bilious attacks on Trump and all things Republican, Americans will continue to be subjected to ceaseless leftward slanting of the news by CNN, MSNBC, the broadcast networks' "news" shows, the New York Times, Washington Post, et al.

Good post.
Democracy in America is not in the government. It is in the market place. People vote with their feet where to shop, where to worship, where to celebrate. People vote with their money what products and services to buy and what to not buy.
Any government restriction on the democratic marketplace is anti-democratic.
I thought we already had a state run media; run by the democrats./Sarc.
I thought wannabe mob boss was literally Hitler?
If it weren’t for the poor travelers stuck in airports no onw would watch that horrible network.
Wait a minute. Trump is a mob boss? I thought he was Hitler. So which is it?

That’s why I called him “Rep. Daniel Goldman [D-ActBlue Jeans]” :-)
If Donald Trump is becoming a bob boss, he certainly has a lot of soldiers on his side already.....sign me up AGAIN!
This from the hypocrites that support NPR. It’s pretty stupid to be claiming a president is encouraging “state run media” when in fact his administration is trying to destroy decades of exactly that.
Way to tone down the rhetoric there CNN...
Still trying to whip up your crazies while attacking us. Nothing has changed with them at all.
State-run media is the next thing after state-run grocery stores.
Don’t give “I, Madman” (apologies to Isaac Asimov) any ideas.
“Hey, Donnie, whatta ya hear, whatta ya say?”
I say our side should run with this and own it with hilarious Sopranos, Godfather, Goodfellas memes.
Great point.
Well CNN is still on…. So…..
Id say a good rule of thumb is do not advocate for violence and certainly dont cheer for murderers.
“Trump is a mob boss”?
Can’t be, he’s not Italian.
These idiots didn’t mind being state run when obammy and bitem were in office.
“We are running dangerously close to state-run media . . . We are losing our democracy. They’re dismantling democracy by doing this.”
Charlie Kirk tried to show the left could be reasoned with. In the end, the left finally Proved him wrong.
CIA’s CNN mockingbirds warn of state run media. Film at 11.
