Trump is cleaning up journalism
Don Surber ^ | December 10, 2017

Well, journalists had another stellar week of buying petards from Acme, setting the explosives off, and hoisting themselves high above the ground.

The first ten days of December have seen:

  1. ABC News's Brian Ross lie about General Flynn's plea bargain.
  2. Reuters and Bloomberg News report on an imaginary subpoena of Trump's records at a German bank.
  3. CNN lie about Donald Trump Junior being tipped off about a WikiLeaks.
  4. David Weigel of the Washington Post lie about the size of the crowd at a Trump rally.

Liars all of them.

Credibility is all the press has. The power of the press is people believe it. If people stop believing the press, the power is gone. And the power is gone. Most of the public no longer looks to the press for guidance.

Not one single newspaper in West Virginia endorsed Donald Trump.

He carried every county.

He won because he fights back. He knew something all the other Republicans don't know: the news media is a paper tiger. He is forcing the press to own up to its lies.

Personally, I've enjoyed watching those Libtard moron newsers crap in their nest ... and then wallow in it.

The Mediacracy ruled America for 50 years. They were able to do it because they took over the media in a bloodless coup of Progressivist groupthink. They were able to rule America because they had virtually no opposition.

Technological change created an alternative media that more than half of America was craving for.

The establishment media has been trading credibility for political power for the last 20 of those 50 years.

In 2016, they traded the last shreds of their credibililty in an attempt to elect Hillary Clinton.

It wasn’t enough.

They’ve ruled it for a lot longer than that.

Jefferson hated presstitutes for a reason. :-)
