When the leftists wholly owned the medium from hollyweird to the 20 mins of "news" people got each day, ALL the major print etc. Everything was fine and dandy.

White House’s Fox News Boycott Attempt Prompts Network Revolt

Quote:As for the White House, it continued its confrontational tone with Fox News while also denying any attempt to bar them from yesterday’s interview, TPMDC reports:

“This White House has demonstrated our willingness to exclude Fox News from newsmaking interviews, but yesterday we did not,” said White House spokesman Josh Earnest
* * * * *

The White House attempted to block Fox News from a round of interviews with “pay czar” Kenneth Feinberg Thursday, but the Washington bureau chiefs of the five TV networks included in the White House pool refused to interview Feinberg unless Fox News was included.

Quote:The decision by the network bureau chiefs to stand with Fox News is one of the first instances of the mainstream media defending Fox News against the White House’s claims.

No, that's not what we're saying at all. The poster claimed Obama "threatened to shut down a network". Obama never did anything of the sort. Now, if the poster was just talking about what you posted, then that's a different story. But it doesn't appear that was his intent as he doubled-down and did not say as much when asked.

Shutting them out is effectively the same thing. And ONLY Obama has actually shut someone out, instead of merely tweeting about it.

"Look at what I do, not at what I say."

But that doesn't comport with trump's words.

"With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License?"

Excusing trump's ignorance of this 'license,' it's pretty clear he's talking about keeping them from functioning at all as a news agency.

Yea, he's asking a question.

zerO locked the door. (yea, yea, so to speak...).

Further, when they aren't actually functioning as a "news agency", but essentially as a propaganda arm of the left, broadcasting made up garbage like Tokyo Rose, maybe a rather innocuous prod to get their schit together will help.

Rather generous of him really, to offer them a hand like that.

He did, but don't tell RWT that. Tommy's under the delusion that Trump and only Trump has done something like this. The left-wing websites he gets his news from told him that. So you know it's true.

Ha ha. They've been crying about the Fake ROOOOSKIES!!! thing, their allegedly shoveling misinformation out there via bookface and whatever else for a year and a half now.

Yet, now they whole-heartedly endorse the spread of VFN and it's progenitors in the lying, lefty press.

If it weren't for double standards the left would have no standards at all.

Talk shows hosts on both sides, like Anne Coulter, fat Rush, Bill Maher, Laura Ingram, Fat cow Rosie O., and several others are the main problem with this country that is so wrong. They spew hatred, that it is not funny. Those types of people are hated by the majority of this country who are against the hate rhetoric from these ass clowns. It is the same way with politicians who spew the same crap parroting them. These people are dividers. Until we turn these guys off, and take the Mic away from them? Maybe we can come together as a United front? I put Al Sharpen in this category, Steve Bannon and Donald Trump.

Just more presidential trollin'.

The networks do not have FCC licenses to pull. He'd have to pull each NBC affiliates license.

He doesn't want the media to report what they want to report, but he wants to be able to tweet any random lie. Interesting.

That's not what it is and never has been. The fact that you can't see it is shameful.

Yes, news agencies have to rely on anonymous sources and sometimes the get information that is incorrect. And when they do, they sure as hell print retractions and make corrections at a much higher rate than that lying ******* does! Just because this worthless excuse for a human being can't take an iota of criticism doesn't give him ANY point to stand on.

All you have to do is look at why trump has not once criticized fox news for any mistakes they have ever made. Do you really have to question why that is? C'mon man. Be honest.

What you choose to report is what makes up the "news". However, what thinly sourced data you choose to report along with what you knowingly fail to report is what often makes much of today's "news" an outright lie....and Democrats lap it up......#GuaranteedHillaryWinTrumpHasNoChance.

But it's not thinly sourced in many cases. And it wasn't in this one either. trump is specifically fuming at NBC because of the nuclear story. They have information from three sources who were in the room saying they heard it IIRC.

You honestly think that they are just making up stuff like this out of whole cloth? C'mon man.

When the press openly and freely lies to millions on a massive scale, maybe it's time for reform.

Did you watch the Project Veritas video in the other thread?

The first video exposes the NYTs & Google. And it's only getting started.

The MSM has been overwhelmingly anti-conservative for years now. Trumps knows this and is aware of the pulse of everyday Americans. He coins the phrase "fake news."

It's genius, really. So simple, yet genius.

Of course it's genius, because his idiot masses are...well...idiots. And it's a great deflection away form his horrible job performance.

And fox, drudge, daily caller, breitbart, sinclair, etc. are propaganda arms of the right. Yet trump has no criticism or issue with them? Should tell you all you need to know, if you're being honest that is.

BTW Herd, Conn is wrong here and he's been proven wrong. Yet he continues to fail to provide ANY evidence of why he's not. Sad.
