The public is concerned that Trump is convincing many people, particularly among his base voters, that news media are staffed with liars. That isn't true...Actually, it IS true.
Why is it so hard to admit?
...the 1st amendment declares the right of WE THE PEOPLE to contradict your master's ERRORS, and the 2nd protects that right.
Your job is to provide ALL the facts - not to decide which facts WE should learn and what WE should do in response. Clear?
Democracy died the day Hillary and crew decided to not accept the results of the election. Just as the republic died the day the South decided not to accept the results of the election(We’ve been a democratic empire since then).
When this is all said and done we won’t have the existing system running things. We’ll either have crazed Bolsheviks running the US government and murdering the population or we’ll have a Ceasar or a Sulla running the government while slaughtering the Bolsheviks. Trump’s more of a Cincinnatus type figure, a good man desperately trying to save the republic.
History does not repeat itself. The outcome is not set but I think Trump’s odds of saving the republic are not great.
The First Amendment gives the People the right to a free press. It is laudable to use that right to hold the powerful to account, but that also applies to a "press" that has become too powerful to control.
Therefore, other "press" like FreeRepublic must hold the MSM to account, too.

And then they behave as if they haven’t a clue why people think they are fakenews. Its because the have reporting standards lower than the national enquirer and bordering on what used to only make it to the weekly world news.
The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat. Parent companies: Disney, Comcast, and now AT&T.
I disagree - the new media IS obviously staffed with liars.
The fact that the media was totally lacking any skepticism through the eight years of Obama really did a lot to damage their credibility in my mind. Contrast that with the 24/7 nail biting over Trump. The bias has become pretty obvious to more and more people.
Rush is right.
These people wake up in the morning looking for the story they can uncover that will bring this President down.
They get glassy eyed at the prospects .
Ok , slant the truth a little if it will result in that Pulitzer Prize.
The key liberal leftists (Democrats, advocates, etc.) in this country can NOT be allowed to die of old age before they to prison for the rest of their lives. It must happen.
>>that news media are staffed with liars. That isn’t true,
But it is true. Every single person who identifies as Progressive is a liar, because Progressive is a euphemism for Communism-by-gradual-change, or as they call it, the nudge. Everything they write and say is a lie designed to move the ball forward an inch or two. That means every story has to have a spin that advances the agenda. If mere spin is not enough, and it usually is not, then you make up a narrative that uses some of the facts. So they lie and if you lie, then you are a liar.
The only Progressives who are not liars are the Useful Idiots who truly do not know what they believe in. Of course, they exist because of the liars in the media and academia who lied to them.

Dude, read your own article...
The fifth-column leftist media no longer hides its seditionist propaganda. Lester was foaming at the mouth with his excrement at the start of yesterday’s evening “news” rant.
Why the gratuitous slap at Moldova? As if they didn't have enough troubles with Russia backing a breakaway region.
Has ANYONE ever seen the effing press make a 'mistake' that damaged Democrats? Yeah, me either. Not ever.
