I have distrusted the lamestream media for decades now...way before Donald Trump announced his candidacy. The last four years have just made it painfully obvious that the lamestream media is in cahoots with the DNC.

Missteps and selective coverage is far far too kind. That doesn't even begin to properly characterize the active participation, even orchestration of un-American and anti-American activities and downright crimes perpetrated by the leftist MSM.

Even if they reversed course literally overnight and started reporting news, fair and unbiased, tomorrow... I would not be able to forgive nor forget in my lifetime. They have taken an admirable reputation and p***ed it away pushing a leftist/fascist agenda. The only people lower that the MSM filth are the fascist elitists the kowtow to.

I just read “members of the press” are calling President Trump a “Nazi” because he won’t throw them a Christmas party.

President Trump has broken the press in America.

BS! The press broke the press.

And as far as Pres. Trump goes, I considered the press to be anti-American propagandists 20 years ago so I don't see how he could have influenced my opinion of them.

Right. The press destroyed the trust long before Trump came on the scene.

Missteps?! They did not accidently trip down the stairway of “Destruction of a President,” they took a purposeful, headlong dive.

...He was to only one who would push back."

Here is how WE join him effectively:

This 4 Star General wanted to discuss the battle sphere
we are engaged in. He wanted to discuss it with us.

A US 4 Star Army General who considers this video a weapon,
and invited its creation.

He stresses the importance of multi-domain ops,
particularly in the human, social communications domain.

In other words, us.

He talks about weapons to save even our enemies.

These weapons, it seems...

My mistake. They called him a “dictator”:

President Trump has broken the press in America.

Blaming the victim. The American Press (and the FBI, DOJ, CIA and the rest of the Potomac fever swamp) went into full suicide bomber mode when Donald Trump came down the escalator in 2015 to announce his candidacy.

“FR in the late-90s spear-headed the drive against the press. We knew back then it was corrupt.”

All they (The media) wanted to do was change the world. That was the mantra repeated by every single one of them, beginning in the 60’s.
Well, congratulations, media. You’ve changed the world. Into something that no one in their right minds recognizes any longer. And we’re pi$$ed about that. And we’ve had enough of your bull$hit. So we’re fighting back. But THAT was never part of your plan, was it? And now you have cornered yourself in your brave new world. And you cannot get out. It’s a new day and WE are changing the world now. BACK to the way it was before you decided it needed to be changed.

The suck up for the Clinton’s tuned me out way before Trump.

I'm with you. I tuned out the MSM the day after the November 1992 election and have never looked back.

The fifth-column leftist media will only be broken when, following their trial and conviction for giving aid and comfort to the enemy, cheering multitudes of Americans witness their short drop and quick stop.

One “name” is essentially the SAME as the other “name” for our GOOD President.

IMO, the “Main-SLIME PRESS” has destroyed ITSELF with their premeditated & KNOWING LIES. = IF the so-called “mainstream press” STOPPED LYING, perhaps in another generation they MIGHT be trusted again by “thinking adults”.
(Public TRUST once LOST is difficult or perhaps impossible to regain.)

Gave up on them since my experience with them during Vietnam.

The reporting of the Tet offensive is when I pulled the plug.

Someone coined the phrase "The Fourth Estate in the Fifth Column". Whoever that was, he nailed it.

what killed the Establishment Media is the very fact they live in the cultural "blue" bubble of west of La Cienega Avenue in Los Angeles, east of the Hudson River in New York city and "inside the Beltway" in Washington, DC. As such, they have the view of the world akin to the denizens of the fictional capital of Panem from the Hunger Games trilogy: amoral, indulgent, parochial and sanctimonious.
