Don Lemon believes that if Donald Trump is given less airtime by cable news channels he will be forced to hold a press conference.

The president-elect has not held a press conference in five months, and has chosen instead to use Twitter to announce his cabinet nominations. The CNN anchor said that if he was a news executive, he would not cover Trump’s tweets.

The paradigm has shifted. MSM needs to adapt or become completely fossilized. I looked up prime time viewers and the top four MSM in primetime need four days to equal the 18 million Trump reaches with each tweet. Let that sink in Don Lemon.

Well, outside the US CNN was regarded as the US version of the BBC, the semi-official voice of the US government. In a lot of places that’s the only US news channel carried by local cable and the standard source of US sourced video. Which explains a lot if you think about it.
No more semi official standing maybe
Means much lower foreign influence and maybe foreign market share.

the only way Trump will ever need to do a press conference is if the federal government prohibits operations of independently owned websites that subscribe to advancing truth

Trump can broadcast all of his news via Internet streams, completely separate from “The Media”.

What is the brand value of CNN, if Mr. Trump goes around the Control-LEFT media?

Trump has more facebook and twitter followers than all the cable news channels viewers, combined.

What happens if Mr. Trump has his own cable network?

Methinks the state controlled media is becoming irrelevant.

Well, they killed journalism in 2008.

PUT OUT PRESS RELEASES TO OANN, DRUDGE, WND, BREITBART AND OTHER NEW MEDIA.

DON’T LET PRESS FLY ON AIRFORCE ONE.

DON’T ALLOW SPICER, KELLYANNE TO DO CNN INTERVIEWS, AND LIMIT ACCESS TO ALL THE BSM THAT GAVE US BS NEWS AND FAKE POLLING.

If CNN did this, it would help us, my CNN watching fanatic liberal sister would no longer be able to criticize Trump for tweeting and being ‘thin skinned’ because she would think he stopped tweeting completely.

Don does not realize that in this equation he is the redundant one.

The light bulb may go off in the unemployment line but I doubt it.
