That is my watch list too.

I even can’t stand Hannity. He is loyal but grandstands constantly and will not let his guests speak without constant interruption.

President needs to put a decibel reader in front of him. Any question that exceeds 50 decibels should be cause for removal.

Thats it, say nothing more.

Wouldnt that be a show?

How about a Print vs. Cursive reader?

They keep talking about Collins. When I was watching the conference, the loudest idiot at the end was male. Not sure who it was.

Lou would have a different take had it been him and the Obama WH

Those were not questions she was asking, they were smears cloaked as questions.

The MSM is completely engaged in smearing Trump. Every ounce of their perverted little beings’ effort is to hurl a smear. That is all they have.

These people not only ask questions about things irrelevant to the press conference, but they ask “essay questions,” meaning they orate for awhile and then say something that could possibly have a question mark at the end but wasn’t really a question. Basically, it was to make the person holding the press conference respond to the leftist essay question and not to the issue at hand.

But the reporter just wants to know how he feeels!
This is all they would ever ask of Obama:

Oh poor Mr. President, do you feeel betrayed?
Oh nobel Mr. President, do you feeel he’s a betrayer?
Oh please Mr. President, let us know, are you worried about it?
We feel your pain Mr. President, are you worried what other slings & arrows the meanies might have?

CNN just wants to be the go-to tabloid rag before they bite the dust.

I dont watch any TV news but I do have respect for Lou. I listen to Brian’s radio show daily, he conducts himself quite well there, if a bit hyperbolic at times.

I’ve rolled my eyes at these essay questions. The person getting the question should just say “If you have a question, ask it.” If the essayist persists, call on another person.

I have to take back any kind of unkind words I ever had about Dobbs from the late 90s / early 2000s. I always pegged him as a GOP establishment and less a conservative. The last 5 or so years I have noticed he is pretty conservative, which I’m not sure is more recent due to 8 years of Obama sort of the way Hannity has been more conservative as well.

We [CNN] demand better."

You're in no position to "demand" anything. You'll get better when you give better...and not until.

They’d fire O’Reilley and consider firing Dobbs but no consideration to firing Shepard Smith.

Demand?

They need to demand more toilet paper in the CNN loo to handle all the s**t they spew.

If another more conservative network were created, Dobbs would fit right in.

"Just because the White House is uncomfortable with a question regarding the news of day doesn't mean the question isn't relevant and shouldn't be asked," the network said. "This decision to bar a member of the press is retaliatory in nature and not indicative of an open and free press.

Bull$hit.

BFYTW.

First of all, for Brett to even think that CNN represents journalism is a stretch. I would love for Trump to start classifying between those that are true journalist (yeah I know it’s like finding a unicorn) and start lableling them. Rank NBC AND CNN as tabloid and ban them from the pressers, and to hell with them. They have no audience...well outside of airports anyways. Then Tell them if they want back in, that they have to fire everyone and then have 90 days to prove they are not PRAVDA bitches of the DNC before reissuing press credentials
