Certain media outlets should stop spreading false rumors and creating fear and even panic with the public,” Trump said.

The president commented to reporters during the White House press briefing on Saturday afternoon.

“I could name them, but it’s always the same ones, I guess they’re looking for ratings, I don’t know what they’re looking for,” Trump said, calling it “so bad for our country and so bad for the world.”

The president reminded reporters that they had the lowest approval ratings of anyone during the crisis.

“You got to put it together for a little while,” Trump said. “Get this over with, and then go back to your fake news.”

As I've said before, we've gone from an environment in which the freedom of speech was unlimited except for those who would "yell fire in a crowded theater" to a situation in which the "main stream media" does nothing except "yell fire in a crowded theater."

The press has accelerated their fake news and are prolonging the suicidal hysteria. The want Trump destroyed, and the collateral damage of destroying the country is well worth it, to them.

If this was truly a wartime scenario, there would be penalties for sedition. If we had a well run country, there would be a penalty for plotting a coup against the President.

I hope you include Fox in that assessment.

Lately they’ve been as bad as anybody.

Problem, it is hitting New York City, not the midwest or south

so its not working

Andrew Cuomo was a failure as a governor, he did nothing and when Trump was saying this was going to hit, Andrew was telling everyone to continue on with their lives because this was nothing to worry about. He did that till about March 14 if I remember.

I understand you, but keep in mind that such measures would be used against us by a liberal president during a wartime situation.

That sort of enforcement would be used selectively against websites like Free Republic, Legal Insurrection, Conservative Treehouse, Gateway Pundit, etc. The Democrats would be delighted to sentence the owners and publishers of those media outlets to long prison terms, or worse.

Flubros and Fearpers can all agree here...

Trump voters *are* Americans. Leftwads are not.

It’s all about Trump hatred at the expense of Americans and America. Just think about that as we see our society in ruin daily. Some should be swinging when this is all over.

They would do that anyway. I just wish they would quit calling it World War II. It is not that at all.
