Triggered: Journalist Snowflakes Scared Trump Supporters Are ‘Turning on the Media’
Breitbart ^ | October 26th, 2016 | by Dustin Stockton

Posted on 10/27/2016 5:43:46 AM PDT by Mariner

Triggered journalists from across the nation are bemoaning the treatment members of the press are receiving at Trump campaign rallies from the Trump supporters the media routinely misrepresents as ignorant racists, fascist Nazis, or disenchanted working whites.

With increasing regularity, these journalist snowflakes are “reporting” their victimization at the hands Trump supporters who chant mean things like, “CNN sucks” and call them names like “presstitutes.

For members of the media elite, the occasional taunts and jeers signal a dangerous threat to the free press. During an interview with Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer breathlessly asked Trump’s campaign manager to ask Trump to stop calling out the press at his rallies because he is scared “there could be an ugly incident” between Trump supporters and the “hardworking young journalists” who cover his rallies.

A quick review of media stories over the last two weeks reveals more than a dozen articles in major publications with the same “journalists victimized by Trump supporters at rallies” narrative. Trump supporters endure long waits, messy parking, and often obstructed view seating to rally for their candidate. The press, on the other hand, is given their own entrance, sectioned off seating, and protection from event security and the Secret Service.

A good journalist is a maimed propagaandist

Wolf, if, by “the media”, you mean the 5th column traitors who control the press, then, yes, the people have your number and you should be scared.

True. They have no reason to be scared.

Yet.

What they should worry about is people turning OFF the media.

Heh heh heh.

Funny.

They lie like rugs about everything under the sun and then piss and moan that we might be ‘turning on’ them.

Good for a chuckle.

I think the Trump Administration should establish a weekly “Punch a Presstitute” day.

Being a “journalist” is an embarrassment to the First Amendment. These “journalists” have perverted their so-called “profession” by becoming advocates for the idiot LIBs in all instances. I hope they wet themselves often and soil themselves for their perfidy. What dishonest, ethics-starved, smarmy, pathetic bums. I laugh at their anxiety and weakness.

When you have a declared preference of 90+% of the MSM for the Democrats and you use your legally privileged position to freely attack the opposition, declaring it a ‘responsibility’ to drop all pretensions of bias when doing so, is this a surprise? Coverage of the last weeks of MSM Broadcast programs has been 91% antagonistic towards Tump and they wonder why epithets of ‘presstitute’ are expressed!

....Or at least center-right conservatives, because hard conservatives are hard to find.

Attacking, no. Ignoring, yes.

The media is not media, but government propaganda.

The journalists, newspapers and television are just background noise at this point. People have learned to tune out the babble.

Face it, MSM. You are just another medium like Isvetia or Pravda or any other unthinking ideological ruminant regurgitating its cud in an endless stream of unexamined bile.

“Push back” doesn’t exist in the alternate reality these media jackels live in.

Exactly. We were a diffuse disorganized rabble and now we have a focal point to rally around. A leader.

Even if he loses, Trump gets my kudos for opening up the playing field. We watched ourselves lose the culture war bit by bit, and then suddenly in comes a candidate who breaks all the rules and thrives doing it. He’s been David’s stone right to the head of Goliath.

We will never be the same again, even if he loses. We’ve seen our enemy knocked back on his heels, and now we know how to beat him.

They spend their time “in the pen” tweeting inanities. Scared people don’t do that. They know they are liars too. see Michelle Fields. These are SJW types, who are the first to resort to physical violence and destruction of property, if they are in a mob or believe they will get away with it.

In Communist Poland the official nightly government propaganda TV newscast ran at 6:30 local time.

People made a big event out of getting dressed, dragging all the kids outside and going for a walk.

The streets were absolutely teeming with people between 6:30 and 7. Then they disappeared again.

Message delivered, loud and clear.

Nobody is watching.
