Cheney’s aim is true...BAM!

By way of comparison - FDR fireside chats - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireside_chats

Roosevelt understood that his administration's success depended upon a favorable dialogue with the electorate — possible only through methods of mass communication — and that the true power of the presidency was the ability to take the initiative. The use of radio for direct appeals was perhaps the most important of FDR's innovations in political communication.[1]:153 Roosevelt's opponents had control of most newspapers in the 1930s and press reports were under their control and involved their editorial commentary. Historian Betty Houchin Winfield says, "He and his advisers worried that newspapers' biases would affect the news columns and rightly so."[2] Historian Douglas B. Craig says that he "offered voters a chance to receive information unadulterated by newspaper proprietors' bias" through the new medium of radio.

Best Vice President ever.

It’s kind of hard break bread with a group who dishonestly tried to destroy you and still paints you in a bad light.

Trump should feel no guilt in cutting them off.

Why doesn't anyone , I mean anyone, say TEA PARTY anymore?
(Isn't that where this movement originated?)

[LostInBayport]

This is the big takeaway from the election, and the Barbara Starrs (whoever she is) are the last to figure it out.

For those who have desire and drive, there is no longer a need to sit in front of that talking box or wait for the paperboy to drop yesterday’s news in the driveway in order to know what is going on in the world.

And once one discovers the other avenues, the biases of the former sources become crystal clear.

All three viewers of CNN agreed.

"He's at the point where we don't need you guys anymore."

Bingo! He's always been a square shooter (needs a bit of practice with shotguns). ;-)

Traditional "journalism" heading into the 21st century

[SaxxonWoods]

These people are part of a horse and buggy media in a Corvette online world.

They are outdated and unneeded.

[Grampa Dave]

A lot of us le Deploreables feel that way.

We don't need Faux/ABCCNNBCBS/NYLASlimes and the Compost insulting us, lying to us and trying to tell us how to think and live our lives.

I think one of the reasons people get so concerned about the tweets is it is sort of a way around the press. He doesn't have to rely upon, uh, rely upon -- this is the modern era, modern technology. He's at the point where we don't need you guys anymore.

[Chode]

iirc it was Dr Raoul said "Political Bias = Layoffs"

[bgill]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! That is a brilliant slap down. High five to Cheney.

[Navy Patriot]

President Elect Trump is at the point where we don't need you guys anymore.

[BigEdLB]

Remember, Wyoming gave DJT his highest %. 68. LOL. CNN doesn’t get it.

[SandRat]

Sounds like he’s telling CNN to get lost.
