I notice a number of newspapers are issuing alarming editorials about the supposed threat of President Donald Trump to a free press.
The only threat Trump is to the press is to expose most of the “mainstream media” as propagandists for the Democrat Party that put “the narrative” above the basics of professional journalism. And Trump and the rest of us have the right to exercise our Constitutional free speech to call out what is really the Democrat News Media for that. Personally, I am glad we have a President with the backbone to fight back against the lies and distortions of the Democrat News Media, unlike the weak Bushes.
Speaking of free speech, where was the concern of these newspapers when Obama Regime weaponized the IRS, the FBI, the DOJ, the CIA etc. etc. against political opponents? Where is their concern when speakers are driven off campus after campus? When conservative and even centrist students fear to oppose campus totalitarians? Where is their concern when masked Antifa black shirts violently attack free speech? Where is their concern when more and more non-establishment rightist accounts are banned from Facebook and Twitter?
But if a President calls out fake news media for being propagandists and liars for the Democrat Party, oh, that is just TERRIBLE!
So whiny Leftist, lib and establishment newspapers, you have the right to freedom of the press, and I hope you always will in spite of the anti-freedom forces you support. But the rest of us to which you are doing a public DISservice have the right to free speech, too. And we and the President are right to call you out for the frauds and charlatans you are.
