Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait released a memo last week saying the news agency will not investigate Michael Bloomberg, who has entered the 2020 race for the presidential nomination.
We will continue our tradition of not investigating Mike (and his family and foundation) and we will extend the same policy to his rivals in the Democratic primaries. We cannot treat Mikes Democratic competitors differently from him, Micklethwait wrote.
Bloomberg News, though, will continue to investigate President Trump and Republicans.
That doesnt sit well with the Trump campaign.
The decision by Bloomberg News to formalize preferential reporting policies is troubling and wrong, Brad Parscale, Trump 2020 campaign manage, said on Monday.
Bloomberg News has declared that they wont investigate their boss or his Democrat competitors, many of whom are current holders of high office, but will continue critical reporting on President Trump. As President Trumps campaign, we are accustomed to unfair reporting practices, but most news organizations dont announce their biases so publicly. Presented with this new policy from Bloomberg News, our campaign was forced to determine how to proceed, he said.
Parscale said that because of the new policy, the Trump campaign will no longer give press credentials to reporters from Bloomberg News.

Limbaugh was just saying this. Trump campaign must have been listening.
Bloomberg News pronouncement about what their reporting approach will be fits in seamlessly with Michael Bloombergs public statements about his main objective in running for President - namely, to see that Donald Trump doesnt get re-elected.
So - do not give the Trump campaign any ammunition pertaining to a Democrat candidate, no matter who that candidate might turn out to be. But keep on hitting out at Trump. And in case that Democrat candidate turns out to be someone other than Bloomberg (and most people believe it WONT be Bloomberg), this keeps Bloomberg in that candidates good graces (because Bloomberg would like to be Secretary of State).
More winning, from the city that never sleeps.
It's up to you, New York, New York:
Sgt. Schultz speaks for the whole progressive movement.
He has declared that his news organization is a partisan effort. Therefore, federal election law limits apply to Bloomberg news.
Great applause!!
Agreed. In general I am not a fan of targeting the press, even when they are obviously hostile. But in this case Bloomberg media have openly ceased even the pretense of being non-partisan.
Bloomberg reporters are banned from writing negative articles about Bloomberg.
But can write fake news about Trump.
Good move.
The only possible sensible response that could be made.
bumberg has a major conflict of interest he will not recognise.
“And we have newspaper people on the pay roll, don’t we, Tom?”
And with the Hussein Head Hawaii judge on vacation, hahahahaha.
“bumberg has a major conflict of interest he will not recognise.”
He recognizes it and considers it an asset.
I was just watching that 2 weeks ago...the novel is way better.
lol
When one puts it the way YOU PUT IT, it sounds insane :)
And it’s absolutely true :)
So is this reported as a campaign contribution to each of the candidates or just the whole of the Democrat superpac? It really would be interesting to see the FEC and the FCC actually respond to questions like that...
(Of course, I know the answer, liberals can do this, if a conservative did they’d be strung from the nearest tree.)
White House needs to do the same thing. Bloomberg is super-biased. No need for them to be anywhere near the White House since they are self-described propagandists.
Since Google, FB, YouTube took down Trump ads, any reporters anywhere related to these company should be banned.
Time for a friendly (to Trump) group to file suit against Bloomberg in Federal Court! Either way the court decides Trump wins! If they rule against Bloomberg then great, if they throw out the suit then that just proves the Federal Courts are politically bias..... sorry John Roberts but sometimes you just need to show people.....
