The Des Moines Register says Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has denied press credentials to its reporters after the newspaper published an editorial calling on the billionaire businessman to end his campaign.
The Register says its reporters were denied credentials to a Trump campaign event in Oskaloosa, Iowa, on Saturday. The newspaper says Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told its reporters they were being excluded because of the editorial.
In the editorial, published Tuesday, the newspaper called Trump a “feckless blowhard” who is “unfit to hold office.”
Register editor Amalie Nash emphasized Friday that the paper’s editorial board is independent of its news reporters and editors. Nash urged the Trump campaign to “revisit its decision instead of making punitive decisions because we wrote something critical of him.”

Yeah right.
It's an "editorial" you're the editor. Wear it!
Des Moines Register: what a dirty little rag.
Here it.is!
Trump is opposite of feckless.
These are the real feckless critters:
First they said they couldn’t do anything because they didn’t have the Presidency, House or Senate (2008-2010).
Then they said they couldn’t do anything because Harry Reid was blocking everything in the Senate. (2010-2014)
Then they said they couldn’t do anything until the 2016 elections because Obama would veto. (2014-2016)
Now they are saying they won’t be able to do anything even with a Republican President because too many Senate seats are up for grabs in 2018.
The MSM is on the receiving end of the stick for once.
I would have given them passes to a special anteroom where the emergency sprinkling system was accidentally activated and the exit doors were for some unknown reason stuck.
Good and the media can not say a think because Hillary does it all the time LOL
Right in the heartland.....a newspaper with no class!
Trump and Cruz absolutely rock!!
This has been a GREAT DAY!!! :-D
That would cool them off from the humidity and heat. Take their car keys and let them walk
“the paper’s editorial board is independent of its news reporters and editors.”
Bullschit...
The reporters play along with whatever memes the “Editorial Board” wants, or they don’t have jobs. It’s really pretty simple.
Hahaha! You’re thinking a step ahead of me!
With over a decade in the media I assure you that you have it exactly correct.
Precisely
Who is the principle owner of the paper? Which chain?
Hey, at least he’s not forcing journalistic integrity issues like Hillary does with the NYT.
Go Donald!
” Register editor Amalie Nash emphasized Friday that the paper’s editorial board is independent of its news reporters and editors”
Suuuure!
I am in IA and I would not line a parakeet cage with that filthy, liberal worthless rag. I am so glad to see Trump put them in their place.
Great! This is how to treat the Democrat media. There is no reason to try to win them over because they only want to be at these events to try to sabotage the GOP candidate.
