I don't trust the press anymore than I trust the DOJ now. Seems they are all in bed with each other conspiring to bring down regular folks (I've been told that means conservative now) and subjugate them with, at a minimum, socialist ideals.

Socialism/Communism cannot exist in cooperation with other freer forms of government. it must triumph or die. Truth tends to kill it.

RE:”The First Amendment to the United States Constitution reads: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Listening to the libs which is most of the media they argue that Trump calling them ‘Fake News’ is him making a law abridging the freedom of the press.

They also say that is how Hitler and Stalin started by calling the press ‘fake news’.

I always thought it was making a law that tells them what they cant say, or what they must say.

"our Founding Father understood the necessity for the press not to be “abridged” in any way"

No, it says the freedom of the press is not to be abridged. The amendment says nothing about the press choosing to "abridge" itself. That's just an idiotic argument.

The 1st Amendment only applies to quill and ink and the Franklin printing press. No broadcast media and no print media any more recent than lithography are covered.
