It's their fault. If they had been civil and not used the bully pulpit against him, they'd be covering him in real time. The fact that they are on the sidelines getting their info second hand is justice.

Pretty soon, as more.people sign on to Twitter and fscebook, the MSM is.going to be playing in an empty stadium. Too bad.

What goes around, comes around. .

The News ladies/Talking Heads will have to wear shorter dresses to keep some ratings.
I do like those glass table tops they use.
Nice touch.

From now on they will have to go about the business not of making the news, but of reporting it. What a novel concept!!!!!

Yep; a Novel concept, instead of a navel concept.
Shorter skirts, and a bare midriff. Will that do it?
They have to come up with something.
Fake news not attracting enough news seekers, to keep the cattle in line.

Oh, for sure. But he will call them directly on the carpet if they twist his words or falsify the facts.

There is freedom of the press, but it should be freedom with responsibility. Also there should be freedom from the press.

His speech was "dark" ONLY if you hate America, are a racist, or are a radical muslim terrorist. I found it very uniting and uplifting.

Me too!! and from my perceptions about child-rearing I would think the same could apply hear. Don't award a behavior you don't want(or punish) Just ignore it. Heap lavish praise on things you do want...or possibly establish some sort of award or prize for honest journalism.

Right now, honest journalism is an oxymoron.
