A so called Journalist with the Washington “com Post” was on the FOX NEWS PANEL this past week with host Mike Emmanuel , and they were doing the final segment and giving out ‘Gifts’ and ‘lump of Coal’, and this ass wipe from the comPost gave the POTUS a lump of coal for all his work he has done this year...of the three panel guests he was the only one to trash and hit on DJT, POTUS.

REALLY PISSED ME OFF..HIS NAME FAILS ME AT THIS TIME? BUT HE IS ON OFTEN AND HAS A SMUG ASS SMILE AND ATTITUDE...

FROM NOW ON WHEN I SEE HIS HATEFUL FACE, OFF THAT NETWORK WILL GO...AS SOON AS HE DID COMMENT I MOVED OVER TO FOX BUSINESS.

I being approximately the same age as the President, share most of what I think are his points of view, so filter me through that. I do think that his presentation is a bit raw, rough, rude...adjectives that will not sit well with the SnowFlakes.

I just thought that it might be possible that President Trump has out-flanked the various media. A serious dollar value of folks are getting their news from President Trump.

The fake media needs to be verified very microscopically. Those whose lives are dependent upon Media must do all they can to preserve Media. Which brings to mind the idea of a FreeRepublic.com with the capacity to form a network of any number of similar thinking people...or groups.

The 1st Amendment is very "Press" friendly. Good. The Media are not exempt from Libel...therefore, holding the Media responsible for libel when committed might squeeze out a little truth from those who deliver the "news".

Thank you for pointing that out. You beat me!

Now days Christmas ends on the first day of Christmas— of the old Christian Christmas.

Christmas always used to begin, universally, on Christmas Eve decorating the tree, the season of Christmas began on Christmas Day, lasting for The Twelve Days of Christmas.

As you said, truly, Christian Christmas feast days were adhered to by all.
I need to research when and why the modernist cultural shift changed out even the memory of all that Christmas tradition. Wiped out, generally, today.

If you can’t believe NBC’s “thrust”, then NBC you cannot “trust”. PERIOD, and you can keep your doctor!

#8. Re “thrust” if taught in journalism class. Nope, it’s found in the “Bill Clinton Oval Office Manual for Intern Seduction”. Footnotes include references to John and Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd, Gary Hart, Elliot Spitzer and the dynamic dual team of “Strzoking/Page”.

Re “news organizations” and “trust”. Drop a couple of letters and “thrust turns to “trust” and then “rust”.

American mainstream media is in, I hope, its’ final death-throes because they have, on purpose, lost sight of the “thrust” of honest and accurate reporting, have lost the “trust” of sane American people, and are as corrosively “rusting” and poisonous as a Tetanus Carrying Tin Can.

The MSM, like the NY Times and its “Old Gray Lady” image, has turned into :Old Gray news whores” instead of “guardians of the truth, accuracy, integrity and democracy.”

“Like the sands of time, they will crumble and blow away”, and America will be a safer, more sane and just nation for it.

[I think I’ll go out and burn my old Press Card for New Year’s. I’ve got a burning desire to help start cleaning up the media, again, as we tried to do when we formed Accuracy in Media in 1969.

“Once more into the breech”.]

We don’t need an answer as to who ordered the fake news...

THEY ALL DO FAKE NEWS...

and the suits just keep making the mistake of underestimating our great President Trump. (I love typing “President Trump,” it is soothing.

So they got caught is such a huge bald faced lie they could not deny it.

“The liars got caught again” should have been the headline.
