    Nobody's rights were denied, but the "fake news" gambit is played out unless President Trump hired you to spread his talking points, in which case, I recommend payment up front as he has a long history of stiffing his contractors.

    Looks like we hate you Mr. President can we ask you a question isn't going to work for them anymore. He's a lot more media savvy than Jeb Bush he knows he's the boss now not them.

    The press pitches fast hardballs, but they want wiffle balls pitched underhanded to them.

    I'm laughing at them.

    If the President explicitly retaliated against specific organizations because their negative (but still true) press coverage, then the President violated the Constitutional protection regarding the freedom of the press.

    There's a reason why the first and second amendments are in that order.

    An adversarial press is a cornerstone of western democracy that demands accountability of the government to the people.

    You'd think that such staunch patriots of Making America Great Again, would understand such a basic thing, but apparently they only want their side of the story told.

    Lies and omission of the truth is beyond being adversarial. They get one middle finger.

    The Fake News is still butt-hurt over the election.

    Lawyer: White House To No Longer Contest Texas’ Voter ID Law

    "An attorney for a voting rights group says President Donald Trump’s administration has told her that the federal government no longer plans to challenge Texas’ strict voter ID law."

    So it will now be as hard to vote in Texas as it is to buy booze

    The Constitution does not guarantee access to a limited size news pool to any organization.

    Sour grapes by CNN.

    By your very own criteria Fox, Breitbart, Limbaugh, and Vanguard News are in the same category.

    Can't believe anyone any more since they are all liars especially if they don't think like you and the gang. "Yeah that's it, liiiiaaaarrs" he lovitzed.

    I don't know, according to a Buzzfeed article, there's not much inside those big boy's pants.

    It's the best not much. Trump's not much is superior to others. Besides that all his energy is directed to his brain, where it's most bigly needed for purposes of MAGA. There's a MAGAnification joke in his pants, for sure, it's cheesy.
