“’What you’re seeing now is a gradual recognition of the importance of the press’ at a time when people are still getting used to a new president whose campaign is under federal investigation for alleged collusion with Russia, Kumar said.”
The investigation into Russian election influence is a mere allegation with not one shred of evidence of anything illegal. And if the Russians did anything at all to influence the election, there is nothing to support that their involvement was pro-Trump. They might have supported Bernie Sanders. They may have made it more difficult for Trump to win.
There are no internals to this poll. This tells me that, like usual, the lying media has an agenda to hide. Who did they contact? How did they contact them? What was the specific wording of the questions?
And even with all of this, the best support they can drum up for themselves is that less than half of America (48%) consider the media to have even “some credibility.” The majority of Americans recognize that the media as a whole has either no credibility or almost none.
The lying presstitutes have teamed up with the lying liberals to disseminate the most vicious propaganda against Trump and conservatives to the degree we now have multiple mass murders and attempted murders targeted at us. It is the Democrats, the media, and the rich entertainers who have blood on their hands.
And I forgot to add that this interpretation of the responses misses the mark entirely. It is exactly because we recognize the “importance of the press” and the first amendment in general, that we despise the lies and slander of the liberal media. But then these people think they are the press. The press, at the time of the ratification of the first amendment, was a machine designed for the mass distribution of printed materials. The “press” today is all of the various means of written and audio-visual communications. It is not and never was a special group of people known collectively as “the press.”
