Since more recent updates has proved this to be BS, maybe the press better stop crying wolf and miss reporting the news before the people are fed up. The press have become Democrat far left activist for the most part and they do become more endangered due to their behavior and underhanded alliances IMO.
Why respect partisan hacks claiming not to be partisan hacks?

I don’t think I’d use the term hostile, but I’ve thought the mainstream reporters were biased, worthless scum long before Trump even thought of running for President.

That guy in Montana did something we’ve all wanted to do.

Time for others to reclaim some respect from people in that profession.

And the hostility towards CHILD ABUSERS IS ALL God’s fault for making normal people abhor it and partly Congress’ fault for making laws against it....

“Barking dog press” whines about getting noses tapped with a newspaper, told “bad dogs, no no.”

Guess again.

It's the repressed rage held towards the Democrats & Media (but I repeat myself) and their Fake News.

Who are these idiots trying to kid?

The People hate the Ministry of Propaganda's slimy guts for a damn good reason.

The Media are traitors to the American electoral process, magnitudes more than the Russians will ever be...

I have to be careful here, because this gives the Left a green light too.

As long as a guy keeps a decent space between himself and the interviewee and follows his requests, they should be fine.

If a guy wants to cut off an interview, that’s it.

You can ask respectful questions and pointed ones too. You just have to do it in a decent social manner.

Maybe they should do their job a bit better.

I can start with a free tip: if you disagree with someone’s politics it is NOT your job to do everything you can destroy that persons life.

Funny, I thought my hostility towards reporters had more to with their endless lies and slander?

Folks,

Don't worry about the media generated propaganda to elicit sympathy.

It will never work with any thinking American, person of faith, or individuals with morality.

They can clang this gong all they want, but the media has made its own bed. It got into the game, chose a side, and has been doing so for decades.

They are the Enemy, along with the Democrats, the Marxists, the militant Homosexuals, the Child Murderers, the Satanists, and the Lazy Able Bodied Takers.

***By the way, see that photo in Newsweek that was used in September of 2016 in the middle of the campaign?

It was a photo of her take almost 9 years ago, and also photoshopped to slim her down.

Guess if Donald Trump could get away with that.
