Trump accuses media of 'glamorizing' terrorists 1506

Donald Trump says the media glamorizes terrorists, including those from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

“I think the press is making it – they’re glamorizing these people,” Trump said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday. "These people are animals."

“And the press is making them into something — they’re making them into Robin Hood,” he added. “And young people, and other people, are following.”

The Republican primary front-runner, speaking days after the mass shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., said the media should stop referring to those who plot attacks as “masterminds.”

“I see the word ‘mastermind,’ 'the mastermind.' I call him the guy with the dirty hat, the guy with the filthy, dirty hat,” Trump said. “They called him a mastermind, and the kids are watching the mastermind and they say, ‘Oh, I want to be a mastermind.’ ”

“These people are not masterminds. They’re not even smart people. I bet you they have very low IQs, they’re not smart people,” he added.

MSM are scared and cowardly so ISIS must be very cunning and masterful!

MSM are the willing blind following the willful blind.

Mr Donald Trump is correct again!

I just realized the BIBLICAL, CHRISTIAN solution to the whole problem .... OBEY GOD !!

God got ticked off one time and GAVE you your own nation and language

Everybody go home ... have a revolution ... and fix your own country

Embrace His gift and shine it up for His Glory

The media glamorizes terrorists?

Like they did with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev?

A lot of things are more easily understood in a relative sense, including those annoying characters.

That’s most easily understood if you click on the original source and try to read the article, which is covered by pop-up ads, making it totally unreadable.

You must be referring to the very glamorizing Rolling Stone cover featuring the terrorist.
