Trump Campaign Distributes Memo Telling Media To Steer Clear Of Collusion Conspiracy Theorists
Daily Caller ^ | March 26, 2019 | Chris White

President Donald Trump’s campaign team is distributing a memo requesting members of the media to stay away from pundits who promote claims that the president colluded with Russia to win the 2016 presidential election.

“Moving forward, we ask that you employ basic journalistic standards when booking such guests to appear anywhere in your universe of productions,” the memo to TV producers notes. The memo, which was reported by Axios’ Jonathan Swan, cites former CIA Director John Brennan and Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff as two such people who should be handled with care.

“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,” the memo notes. It effectively lectures cable news channels like CNN and MSNBC about how to do journalism.

That's a very well thought out and worded letter.

The DC headline:

"...Telling Media To Steer Clear Of Collusion Conspiracy Theorists,"
however, really doesn't comport with what the memo actually says:
“Moving forward, we ask that you employ basic journalistic standards..."
I LOVE the statement that they haven't even been operating up to "basic" journalistic standards. Nice subtle slap in the face.

I feel violated. Is this a good time for a class action lawsuit against the media?

They knowingly spread lies to influence the thoughts, opinions and behaviors of those who watched their programs.

And because of this, people all around me have lost their freaking minds based solely upon what the media has been feeding them!

I know this because they tell me! And then they tell me how evil Fox News is for feeding us propaganda, unlike the other stations who all agree with each other and give us the real truth.

You say you want reparations? How about the media paying for the damage they have done to these poor, malware enslaved souls, along with overwhelmingly painfully punitive monetary compensation for the rest of US who have had to suffer through their media induced insanity!

Where is the freedom of the press? Our civil rights have been violated. Perhaps the Washington Compost and the New York Slimes can withstand another huge lawsuit. Maybe they can’t.

I won’t cry if they get sued and they go bankrupt.

I remember clearly at the very beginning Mark F Levin stated that the bringing out of the special counsel was the only way to adjudicate all these crazy claimed they were making back in 2017 and there was a mixed response to it but it turns out that he was correct you really can’t argue with this investigation and the thoroughness of it and the fact that they found absolutely nothing even Democrats even journalists are going to really have a hard time now trying to put lipstick on that pig

Remember we had a thorough investigations by both the House and Senate and of course the media would’ve just said those were partisan hack investigations and didn’t prove anything of course rush clip Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia Russia see?

Collusion collusion collusion collusion collusion

they would’ve just kept doing that ad nausea him to still try but the air is been left out of that balloon

The White House intends to retaliate with indictments

Fines and Law suits leave the conspirators free to conspire.

No kumbaya... death. They most be destroyed so they can not ever act again.

This is not time to forgive and forget. Attack, attack, attack.......destroy destroy destroy.

Trump is very well aware it is kill or be killed
