Trump’s attacks on the media

[Tug]

Personally I think trump suing the media over stories he doesn’t like or as a way to criticize their editing reeks to me as extortion under color of authority as he controls the licensing of the networks.not to mention its an attack on free speach.

It'll only get worse with the increasing criticism of him and his administration.

You didnt care about free speech when it was conservative voices being silenced or covid related. You're a massive hypocrite, like most of the derangement posse are.

The MSM media, particularly in the us are Democrat backing activists, they lie, racebait and have been caused the divide in the country, along with the likes of Hillary Clinton and top level Democrats. Unfortunately this also spreads around the western world.

In a country like China, the media is controlled by the state. And this is a problem.

 

But free media / free speech presents a different kind of problem. There is so much contradictory information and so many lies that no one knows what to believe. And a lot of the media is deliberately inflammatory. 

 

So I think Trump attacking the media is not a one-sided thing. The media is way too corrupt. They can print just about anything without any checks and balances.

Ask just 1 critical question and you're fake news. Magaman loves it!

He's suing them for lying. If they are not lying, they have nothing to fear. 

 

Leftists like that the media lie, so they want to pretend it's a "free speech" issue, which it is not.

 

I do not remember anyone on the left getting worked up about Fox getting sued.

Because their anchor lied intentionally, and kept telling the same lie even after his producers warned him that he was lying.
