The Trump administration has sent a memo to TV producers which contains a list of Russian collusion liars, advising networks to challenge individuals like Rep. Adam Schiff on their false claims in future.
The memo, sent by Trumps Director of Communications Tim Murtaugh, was sent a day after the Mueller investigations conclusion which completely vindicated President Trump.
It lists Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Rep. Adam Schiff, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, Rep. Eric Swalwell, DNC Chairman Tom Perez and former CIA director John Brennan.
The memo accuses the above of lying to the American people by vigorously and repeatedly claiming there was evidence of collusion.
They made many of these false claims, without evidence, on your airwaves, the memo adds, before giving an example for each of the individuals named.
The memo then asks TV producers to think twice before booking the same guests again.
Moving forward, we ask that you employ basic journalistic standards when booking such guests to appear anywhere in your universe of productions, states the memo, adding, At a minimum, if these guests do reappear, you should replay the prior statements and challenge them to provide the evidence which prompted them to make the wild claims in the first place.
While Trump has zero power to tell the media who they can and cant have on as guests, leftists will undoubtedly weave this into their wider conspiracy theory that the president is trying to intimidate and shut down the media.
Yeah, but look at what it was they have done, and who remains credible.
Hold, Fast.
Love it...memory from one of my favorite movies...:)

When the French hauled out that guillotine the French President changed his tune THE NEXT DAY!
Every one of the Democrats who said they had evidence should be asked to produced it, or explain why the obstructed the Mueller investigation by failing to disclose the evidence to the special counsel.
My feelings 100%!
See post 10 above. This is likely a trap to see if the media is dumb enough to exceed the “public figure” exception to libel and slander with actual malice. What you propose would not have that effect or be actionable in court. Keep in mind that the FCC and indeed the Feds have *no* jurisdiction over the cable news networks in this respect - CNN can collude with Team Fake Russia all they want.
However, taking them to the cleaners for libel and slander? That will get their attention *real* fast. Sue them for more money than they have and shut them down to be liquidated to pay the judgement - and it will happen faster than any Fed investigation ever would.
LOL...
Hopefully Comcast will chew at its own tiny genitalia.
Are you a loyal Comcast subscriber?
NYC is a NASTY place to live sometimes.
If you’re gonna survive, no less thrive, you have to learn to hit back twice as hard and go for the throat and mean it.
Bunch of backstabbing cutthroat animals.
And I live here!
Makes for a tough President though.
And don’t forget, these networks preceded many of PDJT’s claims with the words “without evidence”.
Trump was wrong about one thing. In his campaign, he kept saying we would get tired of winning. We are not tired of it.
Exactly right. The memo came from the campaign and there is a very important difference.
This writer is shooting himself in the foot with this. He repeats the mistake in the very first line...I've never liked or respected the reporting at Infowars but to each his own.
Expecting the Fake News® media to embrace basic journalistic standards?
LOL!

Well said. (jmo)
And those in the MSM those producers. Will file that list in the round file.
Nope, still not tired of all the winning!
Where other guys have a pair, he has a trio. And they clang when he walks.
PBS aired a short “collaboration” between Frontline and NewsHour to run down the timeline of the investigation.
Except they start the clock with Trump’s swearing in and are shocked (clutch the pearls) that President Trump questioned what Comeystain was up to.
No mention in the first half (15 minutes out of 30) that the investigation began in 2015. They didn’t start their timeline with the texts betweening the FBI agents saying that candidate Trump must not win. They didn’t mention Comey’s lying to Congress or leaking to the press.
PureBS did a total hit piece with no sense of outrage at the witchhunt from the Left. No attempt at any sort of balance.
Pull the plug on financing. This network is friendly to the Weather Underground and Black Panthers and SLA.
If the malice standard is set, I wonder if it's limited. Can such a standard be applied to Democrat Congress-critters who continue to spout such malicious falsehood in defiance of the evidence that not one vote cast for Hillary became a vote for Trump due to Russian interference(no collusion took place), and can they be made to pay a financial price for broadcasting their lies?
Trump needs to tweet to the Media that “It’s time to get Woke.
“...admire the gumption of this man...”
Look in the dictionary under “Cajones”... Trump’s picture is there.
