Yep. Let’s make media accountable for the telling the truth. More to the point, open them to libel laws for deliberately distorting and lying. This needs to go for democrats as well, charge them under libel laws for deliberately lying.
How is lying fundamental to Constitutional free exercise? If you harm someone with fraudulent distortion you are held responsible for the harm you cause. Should the media be exempt from this?
Once again, Trump is correct.

Don't necessarily disagree with the concept, but:

A) Don't we already have laws against libel?

B). How exactly would Trump be able to "open up" the libel laws? With his phone and his pen?
