As much as I agree the media should be responsible, I fear that the president is pushing for a government controlled media...similar to non Democratic countries. I worry next that if I speak any ill towards the president I may be taken unexpectedly in the middle of the night leaving my children wondering where I am. (Last sentence was 85% sarcasm.)
As soon as I see the White House acknowledge, call out, and blacklist a "pro Trump" media biased news source for reporting non factual information my fear will continue to grow.
Agree freedom of the press must never be controlled by the Government. On the other hand, one must also be aware of the news controlling the public with what information they choose to cover and hold back. The worse is when some affiliates have an inside track, that certainly is not impartial. Sean Spicer set the stage pushing for honest coverage or he will not answer questions.
Referring to the Brady Room, Government Control already happens. Limited seating decided by the current administration invites. Spicer in attempting a larger room to increase the press pool diversity got falsely accused of kicking the media out of the White House which has also added to the fire. No reporter already in the press box wants increased competition taking away their time in the asking questions, the reason why the panic of being relocated to a larger room.
The only news sources you ever claim (as a Trump mouthpiece) are corrupt are those that don't favor your position. I mean if you are going to be fake, at least be less transparent about it. You saw that list of which media outlets are most reputable, still if Donald Trump would claim that any of even the most reputable sources known for their integrity was corrupt, you'd accept that as a fact immediately and be in here defending his position.
You see, I don't have a problem with all Republicans, all Conservatives, or even all Trump voters. It's those lifelong party affiliates that can't unravel the universe for themselves and see the world as it is, but rather only see what is presented to them by their own dictator that frustrate me. You continually ignore peoples points and post more of the same regurgitated garbage. If we wanted to hear what these people had to say, or listen to them whine over something as arbitrary as inauguration attendance (ego much?), we would tune in ourselves. At least then the information would be presented in a less annoying manner.
Even with all the annoyingly long, bold font, extensively self quoted, and extraneous posts you are making...people still offer you the courtesy of a response. You ignore all opposing positions and continue to spout propaganda. We need a Re-tweet Trump thread specifically for you. Perhaps you feel I'm being rude? I feel you are intolerable, constantly bashing people who don't share your extremely limited world view. You refuse to scrutinize anything that falls under your already established purview. That, I'm sorry to say, is just plain ignorant.
You are lauding social media as the end all source for all important information for goodness sake. Do you even start to understand how ridiculous that is? It's a fucking phone app designed for teenagers. Ugh!
I'm back out. I had to vent, this shit is just so stupid.
