We’re going to have to legislate some kind of news organization fairness and accountability.

If you want to be considered a legitimate news source and claim the perks that go along with it (white house briefing room seat, microphone on the podium, stuff like that) you will have to voluntarily agree to a certain level of disclosure, reporting and accountability to include requiring the publisher to answer questions in live format on a weekly basis about what they covered, what they didn’t, how they framed things, the language they used, etc. Stuff like that.

Selective coverage and fake news have got to come to an end. Fair and honest reporting is absolutely crucial to our system of government and our system will not survive with the MSM being so dishonest and agenda driven in favor of the left.

If we are to have a free country, we must have a free press that reports, more or less accurately, the news of the day. No journalist should have the power to spike a story just because it negatively impacts a scoundrel they like, or who sends money their way. If the whole or majority of the media is controlled by a small group and disseminates fake news, the country will not be able to make good decisions by voting.

The media has continuously not reported the Imran Awan scandal, the South Florida happenings, the DWS lawsuit etc.

Donald Trump is the first to confront the fake news media for what it really is. Other Republicans treated the media propagandists with a respect they did not deserve.

Fox News is in the process of converting from a conservative perspective based news station to a Democrat oriented propaganda outlet. They have a lot of "journalist propagandists" on today who are blaming Trump for Charlottesville.
