    Maybe you could explain to us how the press isn't "free".

    It is, and it's going to stay that way or there will be blood in the streets.

    Do you honestly believe that the corporate press is free? Do they care about ordinary people or their paymasters? Are they free to publish what they want or they need to consult people above?

    The problem with media is that they have more control over people that the people would care to admit.
    I don't have any problem with changing up the usual media names to be invited into whitehouse briefings. Who says the big boys get to hold season passes automatically?

    I think folks ought to organize a protest whereby they send jars of baby food to the White House addressed to our Toddler-In-Chief.

    Because the 3,000 other protest the left has had since Trump's inauguration have been so effective. But baby food would be a perfect representation of the current mental state of the left.

    Exactly right. It will be a cold day in hell before the democrats posing as reporters in the MSM ever stop being democrat activists first, with journalism being their vehicle to promote their political views/agenda.

    What's said is that they consider themselves to be relevant. It's why we see the non stop tempur tantrum from them about Trump fulfilling his campaign promises. Something that's almost unheard of.

    By free press they mean to accept everything that the corporate propaganda outlets of the global corporations and elite super rich tell you without question or criticism - and do not listen to what anyone else including any other news source says.You must think and not think, say and not say, support and oppose, and vote exactly at they tell you to. Failure to totally submit exclusive to their control means you oppose a "free press."

    Lol... Stop polishing and try to pay attention.
    The issue is not whether the press is unbiased, as media from all sides promote their agenda freely, even when it's as sick the the agenda of the deplorables and their great orange hope. But they are free to present a full range of opinions and even limit the sort of facts that they report.
    That's why intelligent people get their information from a wide variety of international sources.
    The issue is that we will not allow trump to destroy the first amendment so that he can hide his failures from public scrutiny.
    If the trump tries to throttle the media, there will be blood in the streets. Count on it.

    Lol...Apparently, they are, since the great orange hope is already whining about the lack of adulation and is trying to stifle the media for reporting all of the resistance to his deplorable antics.
    It's only just begun.

    All news that isn't put out by the Administration is "fake news".
    Should we allow "fake news" to be pushed to the people, so they don't know the truth about what is going on?
    No.
    Therefore we should stop the flow of "fake news".

    In other words stop any news that does not come from the Administration.
    Have we had any truth come out from these people yet?(the administration for those not following along)

    Like to tell us what laws have been passed limiting free speech? For some reason some think free speech only applies to partisan yellow journalism.

    Dubya also said:

    "It's hard to unify the country though with the news media being so split up."

    Bush said the makeup of the media has changed since his time in office since "now there's all kinds of information being bombarded out and people can say things anonymously."




    What do you think he meant by that?
    Bush did not criticize Obama in his 8 years although he gave him a little jab in that interview.
    He is certainly not going to criticize Trump in his first month as president. He's a class act.
