There is no such thing as “the press”, that died ages ago, we are a society in which the gullible willfully use other people’s expressed thought as substitute for critical thinking.
And the “Media” is personally responsible for every single Trump supporter who gets beat up, thrown out of restaurants, and vilified for daring to walk around in a MAGA hat
I wonder if Rather takes accountability for having sex with Hillary Clinton on an Amtrak train many years ago? Yeah, he bragged about it to AJ Benza during one of Rather’s drunken escapades.
Nah don’t ya know, violence against Trump supporters are totally justified because we had absolutely NO right to vote for Trump
Start telling the truth. And, of all people for anyone to listen to. The biggest liar in Washington.
wait, hat ? so is the reverse true ? The press be held accountable for violence against...(pick a topic)
Let God sort em out
Does that include journalist Michael Hastings?
Whats the frequency, Kenneth?
somebody once postulated that a spurned gay guy, involved romantically with a fellow named Kenneth, mistook Rather for a rival, saying ‘this the freak’s been seeing Kenneth?’ and then cold cocked him...
JUST like how the News Misleadia is held personally accountable when violence against Trump supporters occurs!
JUST LIKE THAT!
This old goof still thinks he’s the dean of the American press. Acts like he wasn’t disgraced in 2004.
There. Fixed it.
There wont be violence against the press.
They are being starved. How long can these companies stay in business when no one is watching them?
I hope Trump is making a list and checking it twice of all the reporters who libeled him, so he can personally sue them all after he serves his second term.
Mad Maxine was not available for comment.
Neither was Hollyweird.
Dan Superscript Rather needs to shut up. Doesn’t he even remember he was disgraced to the extreme? Has he no pride?
And a first class jerk like Acosta has nothing to do with the desire of stupid lazy low information deplorables to smack down the press.
The press looking for sympathy is like a hooker asking her John if she’s pretty.
Violence against the press is a good thing considering all the death and destruction they have instigated and caused.
YOU will be responsible if anything happens to our president. You all dish it out but aren’t willing to take it.
