First they come after you, then they target your family and business relationships
It is no secret that the mainstream media has decided that the threat presented by a possible Donald Trump presidency is so grave that it has suspended even the illusion of objectivity. Writing in The New York Times, media columnist Jim Rutenberg granted permission to his fellow journalists “to throw out the textbook American journalism has been using for the better part of the past half-century, if not longer, and approach it in a way you’ve never approached anything in your career.”
The Observer and others have detailed the ways in which traditional media companies and even tech companies have colluded to maximize negative coverage of Trump and minimize negative coverage of his opponent, Hillary Clinton. But it doesn’t end there. As Rutenberg described, many journalists feel the need to “move closer than you’ve ever been to being oppositional.”
That opposition has extended into new and uncharted territory. In the coordinated effort to stop a dangerous candidate from obtaining, to use Rutenberg’s breathless description of the stakes, “control of the United States nuclear codes,” the mainstream media has taken not just to bashing Trump but to extracting a price even from those who support him...

“Move closer thanyou’ve ever been to being oppositional...”
Mr. Goebbles would be proud, very proud indeed, of these
adolescent “journalist” punks.
IMHO
Who does he think he's kidding? The Pinkos who dominate the so-called "news" media have been unabashedly biased for half a century.
The NYT Insane Asylum.
“move closer than you’ve ever been to being oppositional.”
They’ve always been oppositional, now they just don’t try to hide it anymore.
and if Trump’s Supporters just wait in the shadows ready to pounce
That will work as well as when Trump supporters were attacked 24/7 on Free Republic.
and what does he say?
link?
Hang them. Hang them all.
Trumps supporters could not care less what the MSM says, or thinks, about them. Most of them don’t listen, watch, or subscribe to the MSM anyway.
That presents a problem for the MSM, as headcount is the stock in trade for them to sell time to advertisers. It is in a steady down slide, and once the election is over, their audiences will be almost nil.
Coming to the realization that the MSM has becom the official arm of the liberal establishment, it carries no weight with the “Trump supporters”. And, it’s a permanent loss of credibility and trust of the general public toward the media.
Win, or lose, the media has forever lost millions of followers who have been shown the lies and corruption in the media. And the irony is, if Hillary wins, the press is a giant step away from being a state controlled entity, with freedom of the press out the liberal window.
They’re setting up their own demise.
They’re being decimated on the battlefield. This is a rallying cry to those befuddled and confused to stand against The Monster Vote rather than to succumb to a full retreat.
The only hopes they have left are Diebold and Motor-Voter.
“Sic Semper Tyrannus”
IMHO
The press is tying their credibility to a corrupt liar... Hillay’s going to destroy what’s left of the MSM.
What’s black and white and red all over? Besides obamass.
Trump supporters or converts are very aware that they can or will be subject of attacks... I believe they will quietly, and numbering in the millions, enter their voting booths, vote Trump, and go home just as quietly.
I’ve not been “rah rah” for Trump, but his contrast to the alternative(s)is clear: People who want the America they love will show up... without bumper stickers, without yard signs, etc. and they will SAVE THE COUNTRY just by voting.
Quietly voting...
As the Trump Supporters grows to bigger and bigger groups, the Black Community; the Latina and Latino groups, and the American Voter, and the Women for Trump, his base is to big to be concerned with what we know to be the ‘hacking MSM’...it doesn’t matter what they say about us, even when Ted Cruz came out and said that Trump Supporters were ‘low information voters’ he ate those words and is still choking on them...
The Media in America today is the campaign people trying to get Hillary into the White House and we know it...
We are behind Trump because of the MAN he is, the AMERICAN he is, the BUSINESS MAN he is; the FAMILY MAN he is...he is ONE OF US...but they can’t figure that out because this Man Trump isn’t a typical billionaire, he’s on our level, the electrician, the plumber, the concrete worker, the taxi driver, the waiter and waitresses, these MEDIA idiots don’t relate to them, they think they are better than they are, that’s why they can’t figure it out...and to our advantage, they NEVER WILL...
The reaction from the Left, the Media and the establishment GOP should prove to any reasonable human being that Trump REALLY IS the only true agent of change to run for President since Reagan.
The irony here is that the media is becoming worse, more oppressive and tyrannical, than any danger they imagine Trump represents.
Trump wants to secure our borders and grow the economy.
The media wants to destroy anyone who supports that vision. They are monsters.
The FACT that this is a true statement should send shockwaves across America.
