And just think, Trump’s alleged abuse of the press was the major reason why Diane English and Candice Bergen trotted “Murphy Brown” out of retirement and it flopped big time.

The difference between Chris Wallace and a jackass is that a jackass can be useful.

He is completely correct. And, the most deserved attack ever. Without an honest media, the Republic will be doomed.

Chris Wallace is a product of the “Seed that Didn’t Fall Far from the Tree”. His old man (Mike Wallace) was probably one of the most Liberal Pundits/Journalists that was ever on TV. He was a card carrying member of the CBS Cronkite left wing Kabob. Chris is trying hard to go down that same path and that is why I never watch him and try and tune him out when he appears. I am hopeful that soon he will go the way of Shep. Smith.

Chrissy ought to go back to a job he is qualified for - - - flipping burgers. He is obviously way over his head in the one he has now.

According to his meaning then: the freedom to lie, report false stories, be disingenuous, and vilify Republicans and Conservatives and anyone else who disagrees with you.

Wallace is and wants to be part of the swamp. The media can’t control Trump, so they trash him.

There’s freedom of the press.

But there’s also freedom of the unimpressed.

We are unimpressed with Chris Wallace. Please just go away.

Chris Wallace is right. Trump is attacking the press. And the press is attacking Trump, as it has since even before the election.

Someone tell me the difference between Adam Schiff and Chris Wallace?

One has a size 13" neck and the other has a size 14" neck.

“I believe that President Trump is engaged in the most direct sustained assault on freedom of the press in our history,” Wallace said to applause at the Newseum, a media museum in Washington, on Wednesday night.

No, Chris. President Trump is attacking the behavior of the press, not its freedom. Learn to think.

“He has done everything he can to undercut the media, to try and delegitimise us, and I think his purpose is clear: to raise doubts when we report critically about him and his administration that we can be trusted. Back in 2017, he tweeted something that said far more about him than it did about us: ‘The fake news media is not my enemy. It is the enemy of the American people.’”

Chris, the media's reporting on him has always run 95% or higher negative since the man entered politics. The lies we the people see and hear from the vaunted "press" aren't even clever lies - they are outrageously stupid ones much of the time. That makes the "press" agents for disinformation, which in turn actually does make them enemies of the people.

Wallace recalled that retired admiral Bill McRaven, a navy Seal for 37 years, had described Trump’s sentiment as maybe “the greatest threat to democracy in my lifetime” because, unlike even the Soviet Union or Islamic terrorism, it undermines the US constitution.

Such a nice appeal-to-authority logical fallacy you have there, Chris. Being forthright on the behavior of a craven press corps that has forsaken any semblance of objectivity in favor of full-throated liberal partisanship does not undermine the constitutional guarantee of freedom of the press. It undermines the scandalous behavior of the corrupt press corps.

If that were true Chris, you wouldn’t still be spewing your lying hateful garbage. In fact, in third world shitholes where dictators rule, you would have been neutralized a long time ago.
