Personally .. it lands right in the laps of those who are only interested in smearing the President.

So, the message the NYT and the Post and CNN should take away from this: IF YOU PREFER TO PRINT AND REPORT ONLY FAKE STORIES WITH FAKE INFORMATION .. THEN YOU HAVE NO REASON TO BE ALLOWED TO ATTEND THE BRIEFING - SINCE YOU DON’T USE THAT INFORMATION IN YOUR STORIES.

What is the purpose of the NYT, Post or CNN being there ..??

CNN is fast becoming the new National Enquirer. Only difference is that sometimes the Enquirer is accurate.

I hope the next step is to have their licenses yanked.
They aren’t real news, so why license them as such?

I don’t think that can be done, since it is government action. Like speeches on the House floor and the Congressional Record.

We don’t need the “old gotcha” press conferences. With the whining and lying liberal mediots attacking our president. We are tired of the mediots lying and telling us what to believe and how to vote! Ban them from the White House. Trump’s comments and statements are for his voters. We don’t need lying liberal mediots to tell us what he says to us.

Official Washington is being traumatized by the tweets of Donald Trump.

Politico has chronicled the pearl clutching concern by the inside the beltway types over Trump's tweets. Trump speaking directly to the people via Twitter is causing a crisis among mediots, politicians and lobbyists. They just don't know how to handle it as the article title, “Trump’s Twitter feed traumatizes Washington.”

CNN, NY Times and others are not news organizations. They are “news” organizations. Congress needs to break up these media conglomerates. They are the enemy of a free, constitutional Republic.

The nation certainly needs to break up these conglomerates. I've been beating on that drum for the last year or so. The existing broadcast media is a monopoly that restricts freedom of speech by only allowing liberals to have control over their vast network of transmitters and satellites.

They censor conservatives by not giving them equal access to the broadcasting system.

Yes, we need to break this system of controlling information. The public need access to complete information to make rational decisions, especially when voting.

For CNN the fight has become existential.

CNN is the walking dead

Let us hope we can make it actually dead. We need to start destroying these liberal networks. We need to wreck them financially and thereby prevent the existing liberal monopoly of the broadcast systems from controlling information.

Good to see BuzzFeed on the list.

They are nothing but MSNBC in drag.

NBC gives them 2M$ a year to push fakenews on twitter etc

CNN: CommieNews Not Needed

In prime time, FNC crushes CNN 3-to-1 in total audience. Heck, even MSNBC crushes CNN 2-to-1 in total audience in prime time.

FNC/MSNBC/CNN ~= 3 million/2 million/1 million total viewers in prime time.

In other words, FNC + MSNBC combined have FIVE times the viewership as CNN in prime time!

“TIME Magazine boycotted White House press briefing”

Next week’s issue in dentists’ offices everywhere will be 8 pages instead of 12.

Another benefit is that the fake stream media will be occupying so much of their time gnashing their teeth, pulling out their hair etc., that they won’t have as much time in attacking President Trump with other fake news, and in the mean time, he and his cabinet are rolling his agenda behind the scenes as if nothing at all is happening in the fake stream media.
