Because they are so freaking vain they actually think Donald Trump needs them. They can't imagine a public figure who doesn't bow down to them and beg them for their favor.

Yes, we have entered into a new media reality...

No longer does someone NEED the MSM to "report" on them...

Trump has something like 50 million data points of contacts in his data base built on the RNC data, facebook, and twitter...

Trump can easily bypass the MSM to get is message out...

They simply have not figured that out yest...

“But for a President elect to call in a score of journalists and then excoriate them for being opposed to him would be petulant and childish.”

See, there’s your whole problem right there, Neb.

Trump didn’t call them in to excoriate them for being opposed to him. He called them in to excoriate them for being liars when their duty is to inform the populace with the unvarnished truth.

So, nice try, no cigar.

If that had been ME and I had THOSE people in the top of my glitzy tower it would have gone something like this!

Kudos to Trump for showing restraint.

[No PBS? Interesting]

Why dress down PBS when the network may be on the chopping block?

And just WHO the bleeding hell are YOU to say what is "presidential" and what isn't ?

You're a piddling little nothing of a nobody, who wait YEARS before getting up enough courage to post here. Why not just go back to "lurking"? *snicker*

she was so busted

She was busted in all her scandals, but the media didn't bring up a whiff of it. Travelgate alone should have resulted in her doing prison time.

But like I said, the media do more damage by omitting information the public ought to know.

-Trump’s press secretary needs to fight the media. They should devote part of each session with the press reviewing many of the and smear jobs by the MSM. They might want to invite in conservative talk show hosts as guest speakers to have “conversations with the media.”

Forget that...take away their press credentials. They're going to make up news anyways so make them outsiders. Let the conservative press "be" the only place where news is disseminated.

The part I like is that Trump said it to their face, not behind their back, to their face!!! I hope George Snuffleupagus found his safe spot.

He should have never been permitted to take a job on a "News" network. He is the press secretary for Bill Clinton, and I kept waiting for people to call out the slimy little bastard as a partisan shill, which he is.

It’s pretty hard to be the most powerful man on the planet and not even be able to handle his own media. No wonder the rest of the world laughs at us.

Who said Trump couldn't handle "His own media"? The media? And we're supporting the rest of the world and what they think at this point is irrelevant. Pay attention.

Agreed. Trump told them the truth up close, in person, TO THEIR FACES! No one else would have done that, and I include Dole, Bush, McCain and Romney!

You don't really think this was Donald Trump being petulant because they oppose him do you?     Donald Trump was delivering the first salvo against the fifth column of the fourth estate in his battle to MAGA.     You need to wake up and get with the program, lest you be seen as the enemy pariah you are already suspected to be.

[What part of “Off the record” do these media whores fail to comprehend as they left this meeting falling all over each other to report what went on inside this “off the record” assembly. They seem to a bit unclear on what “Off the Record” means.]

If MSM distorts the meeting, no doubt TRUMP will air the unedited version online.

I think President Elect Trump put them on-notice. They want access and the way to get it is TELL THE TRUTH! Will they do it? Doubtful.

Well, if someone repeats a lie often enough, they begin to believe it.

It would have been the best meeting ever if he had the meeting on the roof and told them they all had to go on national tv and confess to their bias. And then promise to do real investigative journalism on Fast&Furious, obama birth certificate, obama records of every kind, benghazi, the IRS, the whole kit and kaboodle(too many to list). When they refused, Jeff Zucker gets tossed off the roof.

Tthey would all raced each other to get in front of a camera and tell their stories. They could then proceed to take down the last 8 years and put the clintons, their cronies, and obama in prison jump suits. That would have been a productive meeting.
