Stephanie Grisham: Networks refusing White House airtime after good week for Trump
Washington Examiner ^ | February 7, 2020 | Mike Brest

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham claimed a slew of networks declined to book a White House official for Sunday programming after a good news week for President Trump.

Grisham, in a Friday night appearance on Hannity, acknowledged the White House will not get much airtime to discuss the State of the Union address, the president getting acquitted in the Senate impeachment trial, and a strong jobs report.

"I have got to tell you there is not going to be one White House official on any of the Sunday shows this weekend. Only Fox Business is taking a White House official to talk about what an amazing week this president has had, and I do find that timing very, very suspect," she explained.

"Hang on," host Sean Hannity said. "You are saying they are not even inviting — they don’t want to invite anybody from the White House? Why? Because they would point out that the president was completely vindicated?"

We don’t need the leftist networks. We will spread the word in other ways.

Don’t worry, Romney will cover for Trump’s people.

In other words, rather than WHINING, how about some of the money-men on our side try OWNING some media outlets?

Have the Democrat voters learned yet that Trump isn’t leaving office?

Then they bitch ceaselessly about NO PRESS CONFERENCES... NO PRESS CONFERENCES... UNFAIR... COVER-UP...NO ACCESS!!!

It’s all obviously part of their propaganda ploy that everyone sees through. Cheats and liars, all.

The Sunday news shows are dinosaurs with low ratings.

Once again.

95% of so called Journalists are self admitted Democrats, Liberals, Progressives and / or Socialists.

Of the remaining 5%, four out of five are Liars.

“95% of so called Journalists are self admitted Democrats...”

I remember in the early 90’s Rush talking about a journalists’ convention, where a poll showed 90% were D’rats. It also showed that most considered journalism an advocacy tool, a way to change the world.
