He meant to say “propagandists” not “journalists”.
The first compost lie was in the title. They are not Journalists. They are the occupation media.
How about reporting the FACTS and not “thu feelz” and reporters NOT BECOMING THE NEWS!
Does it even occur to these sonsa bitches that maybe when a POTUS gets 90% negative news coverage this President have a point when he criticizes them? Especially when you consider the worship and devotion they gave Obongo.
There is a scene in "The Dark Knight" where Batman is beating the Joker to get information out of him. He just pounds him again and again but Joker won't tell him. Joker can take the beating because he knows that's ALL Batman has. Batman won't kill him. Finally Joker says "You have NOTHING, nothing to threaten me with. Nothing to do with all your strength".
That's Trump getting beat up. They HAVE nothing to threaten him with. Despite all their strength there's nothing they can do to stop Trump.
And people who have been around FR for any length of time have know it for a long time.
Thomas Nast is smiling.
Dana asks: A question to my colleagues in the media: Why do we play President Trump’s foil?
Quick answer: ‘Cause y’all are stupid and gullible.
I wonder, does the extreme left understand that they are using extreme and inaccurate statements to describe Trump, and those who support him. Of course they do!
Statements that the media were reporting, tried falsely say, “that Acosta was taking his life in his hands by being in front of such a violent crowd (meaning the crowd of Trump supporters).”
This was an inaccurate statement! Acosta was not in any danger and Acosta new it, because Acosta understands that the right are largely non-violent reasonable, rational people, conservatives, who simply believe I. Small government, and less government interference. Acosta knew and understood he was perfectly safe.
If we compare Acosta showing up to a republican event with Ben Shapiro, or Milo showing up to a College to do a speech, the difference is dramatic. Antifa, BLM bullies, and radical left bullies literally started fires, fights, and mass violence, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars I police actions and property damage, all done to prevent perfectly civil conservative discourse. Of course, the radical left’s behavior is shameful, but keep in mind that I am not calling all democrats radical violent racist leftists, and I’d be wrong if I did. Yet, the left calls all of the right racists, and a host of other names to bully us into submission. It appears this tactic is not working any longer, and therefore, they (the left) are forced to use the final piece of artillery in their arsenal, which is violence! They have no intellectual resources to fall back on!
Interestingly, now the right also consists of disenfranchized democrats who have “Red Pilled” as a result of the hard left’s rhetoric, which middle of the road deomocrats cannot reasonably support.
Of course, both the blue and red bases are fired up, but it seems that there’s quite a bit of “Red Pilling” and “#Walkaway” happening. So, it would seem that the extreme left taking over the Democrat Party is causing a serious growth spurt in the Republican Party. It appears to be McCarthyism in reverse.
send the following to every FakeNewsMSM outlet and every individual FakeNews “journalist”. have they no memories? thought a good memory would be essential in journalism.

18 Apr 2016: HuffPo: Hardly Anyone Trusts The Media Anymore
People value accuracy, timeliness and clarity above all else.
By Nick Visser
Only 6 percent of people say they have a great deal of confidence in the press, about the same level of trust Americans have in Congress, according to a new survey released on Sunday.
The study mirrors past reports that found the public’s trust in mass media has reached historic lows, according to data gathered by the Media Insight Project, a partnership between The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and the American Press Institute. The report found faith in the press was just slightly higher than the 4 percent of people who said they trusted Congress...
Alongside the dire findings, the report found respondents valued accuracy above all else, with 85 percent of people saying it was extremely important to avoid errors in coverage...
“Over the last two decades, research shows the public has grown increasingly skeptical of the news industry,” the report reads. “The study reaffirms that consumers do value broad concepts of trust like fairness, balance, accuracy, and completeness. At least two-thirds of Americans cite each of these four general principles as very important to them.”...
The media has also faced a barrage of criticism during the ongoing presidential campaign season, particularly from Republican leaders including Donald Trump and Ted Cruz...

Just 6 percent of people say they have a lot of confidence in the media, putting the news industry about equal to Congress and well below the public’s view of other institutions...
The poll of 2,014 adults was conducted Feb. 18-March 21 with funding from the American Press Institute.

Respondents were first selected randomly using address-based sampling methods, and later interviewed online or by phone.

btw note the poll was carried out Feb.18-March 21, 2016.
surely candidate Donald Trump, like many of us, heard about this poll...and AGREED with its results. it’s nothing new, especially since the advent of the Internet, which allowed people to cross-check the stuff put out by the FakeNewsMSM.
by NOW, trust in media should be about 1%.
“The msm is like a bunch of cats chasing a laser pointer...they just KNOW they’re going to get that pesky thing THIS time.
They can’t help themselves.“
Even though he is very wealthy, Trump lives rent-free in their heads. And he is a VERY troublesome tenant.
Good.
You're right they are terrible AND Trump is the first person to call them out.
What Dana Milbank doesn't 'get' is that it's OK for the million of people in the United States who are dissatisfied with bias in the press to express it. We have freedom of religion too - and that DOES NOT mean that religious groups can't be criticized. Milbank should understand that - the Post criticizes Religious groups...it's a free country after all.
Dana Milbank was one of the Journolists who openly campaigned for 0bama in 2008, and spread vicious rumors about Palin and her family.
“If Trump says something outrageous, report it. If there is violence, or conspiracy theorists taking over the place, report that”, which of course is a remarkably clear admission that WaPo reports only negative news about President Trump ...
There’s always good stuff. I grab the ones I see.
There’s always a great time to use them!!
Great cartoons.
I like loser Jeb Bush. He was such a pathetic tool.
Gee you think so Einstein?
