At the YouTube link, Vox’s Ezra Klein and CNN’s Brian Stelter discuss the growing consensus among the press that they will no longer cover Trump rallies as they aren't newsworthy.

Just pausing to imagine how the Dems would have reacted if the MSM consensus was that Obama's rallies, complete with halo lighting, were not newsworthy.

The bias of our so called “media” is truly breathtaking.

They do not even try to pretend anymore.

Just, all spin, every station, every day.

[a fool in paradise]

ask them if they are going to keep reporting on tweets

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

I see conservative news services in our future

“.....will no longer cover Trump rallies as HE IS KICKING OUR ASSES...”

[Reno89519]

And if they skip them, what is their, the ‘News’ organization’s relevance? Unless they collude,like they do with their journolist group, how do they accomplish blacklisting Trump?

[nickedknack]

Fox News is the only media outlet that has been covering the rallies recently. They do have a sameness about them, but they’re entertaining, particularly when PDJT is bashing America’s enemies, foreign and domestic.

[octex]

The left wing media should stop showing the WH press briefings, as well as any Trump rallies.

Fox News is already #1, so this action would further poach viewers from other outlets who want to be informed of what is happening, instead of ingesting the BS from the MSM.

You have to remember that Ezra Klein was the originator of Journolist, a group of about 300 “journalists” who actively campaigned for 0bama in 2008. It was the same Journolist that was behind the attacks and smearing of Palin all the way up to 2012.

Excessive coverage of President Trump where they mocked and derided him didn’t work so now the leftist media tries to move in the opposite direction. Sort of reminds me of climate change. It was global cooling in the 70s, changed to global warming in the 90s and now it is climate change.

Leftists try to control language and media to meet their ends. They are horrible people. Their changing tactics shows that President Trump and the people of the United States are winning!

What upsets the Leftists is that Trump controls the entirety of the daily news cycle, from 6am tweets through 8pm rallies. Too bad, so sad, Fake News.

[albie]

So does that mean Soros/Dems stop sending paid protesters?

[IamConservative]

I can’t remember where, but I read the attendees in Minnesota a couple of weeks ago were 60+% Democrats and Independents. That had to loosen the bowels of DNC officials, assuming they know remedial math.

FNC is #1, but it's rating and demos still stink in terms of what news used to draw.

Example,for May 2018:

Prime time (Mon-Sun): 2,381,000 total viewers / 461,000 A25-54 Total Day (Mon-Sun): 1,394,000 total viewers / 279,000 A25-54

Big whup.

Consensus? Wait a minute, that's exactly the sort of cross corporate collusion to fix the news that amounts to monopoly practice just like fixing prices does.

[jazzlite]

They are so afraid of the freedom of this population to be exposed to all points of view. Americans had better know what is afoot here. This leftist media and their puppet masters in government lust for power to be concentrated only in their hands. Look to history to know what they would do with it if they could have it.

[iontheball]

The President has all his opponents, including the MSM, completely flummoxed. He must be having a good laugh this morning. There is no one out there like Trump, be they politician or entertainer. Who is it that can do a stand-up routine, one and half hour long, off the cuff, without teleprompter, in a huge stadium to a packed house like Trump? His opponents brains are exploding every time they have to attend the rallies and see the huge crowds roaring, cheering, laughing and celebrating. The whole show makes them sick. So now they have come up with the ‘bright’ idea that by ignoring him they win. Well, I have news for the so called news hounds, wherever Trump goes and whatever Trump does or says is news. However, should they choose to ignore him, they will become even more irrelevant than they are already.

[PghBaldy]

Fox is only relatively good in ratings because it is the only barely conservative channel. Add up all the rest, and it is not so great.

[Savage Beast]

It won’t help. The American People will continue to turn out in multitudes for Trump Rallies! And they will understand the Media’s censorship for exactly what it is.

[mewzilla]

And it’s a lot less great than it used to be.

On purpose, I suspect.
