Donald Trump Meeting with TV News Execs Olive Branch or 'I Told Ya So'
TMZ ^ | November 21, 2016 | Staff

Posted on 11/21/2016 9:35:05 AM PST by COUNTrecount

Donald Trump is meeting with his harshest critics Monday and the people who arguably got him elected ... the media.

Sources in Trump's camp tell us ... he's meeting with all the network heads Monday at 1 PM ET, and Trump will not hold back. We're told he wants to talk to them about how they got it so wrong during the campaign. TV execs will show up today, and Tuesday he'll do the same with the NY Times execs and others.

Trump's end game for the meeting is unclear, but we're told crow will be served.

No. The fairness doctrine was terrible. Not good.

AND HE'S NOT EVEN ON THE CLOCK YET!!!

Obama did nothing but go on a self-congratulatory party tour until January.

I am thinking that he may threaten them with antitrust enforcement where he will force the behemoth corporate owners GE, News Corp, Disney, Viacom, Time Warner, and CBS to spin off their broadcast and news entities from other operations as well as limit the number of Radio and television broadcast stations they can own, he is also likely to reinstate legislation limiting foreign ownership of news entities United States. There's no reason he is also likely to reinstate legislation limiting foreign ownership of news entities United States. There's no reason Carlos Slim should be able on the New York Times or that Fox Entertainment Corporation has as its second largest shareholder the inbred Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal.

“I hope he says that he will deny them access to his administration if they continue their one sided reporting.”

I imagine he will mention a fairness doctrine if the media continues not to be fair. And I expect part of that will be serious fines as well as even more serious licensing fees which will do to the media what Obama’s EPA did to the coal industry.

Funny, my instincts would be to do nothing, ignore them, and let them stew in their own juices. But that’s just me I guess. I sure don’t have the promo chops that DJT has.

BTW, Wretchard’s “Message to Garcia” is a good read, and in the comments there is a great link to an interview transcript of Steve Bannon from a couple of years ago that is a very good read as well:

This was from before he was hired by Trump, and even well before Trump threw his hat in the ring. It gives some real insight into the strategic advice that PE Trump is receiving.

More than likely it will be denied by the liberal media, but they indeed helped get Trump elected. Their liberal negativity and constant wrongful spewing of misinformation propelled the majority of “We, The People” to put Trump into the presidency. The arrogant bastards are just to self important to admit it.

LOL!!

Actually, I hope the MSM does blame themselves for getting him elected... as absurd as that is... I hope they lie awake at nights blaming themselves!

Maybe throw in something along the lines of:

"Wikileaks has already shown collusion between your industry and 'x'. If any of that collusion is related to covering up or encouraging a crime, it is going to be hard to cry 'first amendment' when my DOJ determines your organization as an accessory. Now let's talk about keeping the news objective...."

Exactly. I think you nailed it.

Good for Trump. I hope he enjoys it.
