...In a normal world, Trump would be booed off the stage. Instead, he is applauded (by some) for adding the Post to his list of journalistic organs denied access to his campaign.
The applause is disheartening, and is evidence that newspapers are little understood or appreciated. This is owing in part to a few notorious fabricators, who were duly punished, as well as a vast array of alternative news sources. But mostly to blame for the demonization of the media broadly are faux news media outlets, Republicans and their cohorts...

Sounds like this particular dog got kicked hard.
WaPo - never saw a conservative cause they didn’t want to slam.
She’s lying from the get go. One reporter was barred. The rest of her piece is strawmen and agitprop.
They are free to write whatever they want. He is in no way constraining them from doing so. However, he is not obligated to give special access to them either. The establishment media needs to stop whining over loss of influence and try and earn it back with factual reporting that does not contain bias and spin. That is what Americans are looking for.....Just the facts.
Parker needs to go on a running list of pay backs, when TRUMP restores the Constitutional government and freedom of speech.
My list includes:
Megot Kelly
Joe Scarborough
Kathleen Parker
Dana whatshisname (who wants a TRUMP media blackout)
This list is just my list for today. lol.
The Ministry of Propaganda has never had anyone stand up to them before.
They don’t like it much.
Tough.
Hang tough, Mr. Trump.
They’ve lied repeatedly to libel Republicans, completely ignored Democratic scandals, and done everything possible to be partisan... and now claims barring one reporter is an assault on free speech.
Get over it Post.
And these same hypocrites in the news media are openly advocating restriction and outright nullification of the 2nd Amendment.
Didn’t some uber-liberal tech-wad recently buy the Post?
Kate, most Americans will chuckle with glee when the last of your buttwipe factories shuts down. Read the polls: male prostitution ranks higher than journalism as a profession, and shi-thouse walls have more credibility as news sources. And it’s all because of hypocrites, shills, and hysterics like you and your stable of whores.
The only ones who think journalists are important are journalists. And they’ll be the only ones mourning when the sun sets on your shameful industry.
The headline:
Freedom price of assault on 1st Amendment
I would have thought the House Conservative of the WAPO (latest toy of Jeff Bezos) would understand...the First Amendment means you can print/say as you please. That is, of course, unless it involves political speech, which the NYT wants to limit (unless it's theirs.)
No, Ms. Parker, The First Amendment does not guarantee that anyone has to talk to you, or listen to you...it does not guarantee that you will have a source, or an audience.
In fact, the first words of the amendment are..."Congress shall make no law..."
This is why you are despised.
