Right, because just like Hillary, the CNN media is always ducking for cover from sniper fire. Well; when they aren’t disrupting press conferences or generally making an ass out of themselves on camera.

Translated: They both lie like a rug.

This is absolutely ridiculous. The media have been complicit in trying to remove a duly elected President, thus are working against the electorate. How is that protecting freedoms? The media is full of people whose self-perceived importance far outstrips their actual contributions and exhibited talents.

Is this a joke? CNN is a godless America-hating, constitution-hating, liberty-hating, free-market-hating, leftist/socialist/globalist political organization that works in concert with their allies in the socialist democrat party and the rest of the godless leftist media to push the liberal/progressive/socialist/Marxist/fascist/globalist line. They wouldn’t know or defend freedom if it reached down and bit them on the butt.

The very foundation of America is the self-evident Truth that freedom is an unalienable right granted to us by God!

CNN should look it up. It used to be in the older history books before the God-hating Communist inspired Marxist/Stalinist fascists took over all of our public institutions and burned them all, but they should still be able to find a copy of the Declaration in the official archives or etched in stone on the monuments and government buildings in DC. Might even find some references to God and His Commandments still etched in stone in the marbled halls of our Capitol.

I’ll believe CNN defends freedom after they start defending God and the Declaration daily on their broadcasts and that freedom is an unalienable right granted to us by God and that America was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and stop pushing godless socialism.

They hate freedom so much they go so far as to deny the very existence of God and the fact that America was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and that our freedoms were granted by God, expressly so they can erode away those very freedoms. They want to deny that our founders and the founding itself was actually inspired by God in order to try to deny us our unalienable rights to freedom.

Stay armed, stay vigilant.

I can see his point. Joseph Goebbels was just as important to the 3rd Reich as Germany’s military was. So, under Obama, it was more important than the military.

God challenges us everyday. We mustn’t turn our backs to these challenges as they have purpose.

Sorry, one does not protect freedom by continually publishing lies, half-truths, fake news coupled with omission of inconvenient, but important facts

"How long do you think Acosta would last at Parris Island?"

If he was willing to try, I'd put my smokey bear back on and go down to Parris Island myself to get the answer for you.

The big difference, of course, is that the guns of the military are pointed away from us.

The free media protects us, not the Leftist propagandist media who hate the free media and want it banned.

First of all, they are NOT "the press." They are corporate media organizations (CMOs).

Well said.

These Sons of Belial think that they have a license for bad behavior because they think they are “the 4th branch of government” mentioned in the 1st amendment. What arrogant presumption. They are no more privileged than any citizen of this republic.

“So, under Obama, it [the media] was more important than the military.”

Correct.

It’s been my contention for some time now that the media are one of the two major political parties.

Not GOP and democrat party, but The Press and the GOP

It seems that for some time now that the press is not a branch of the democrat party, but the democrat is a branch of the Media Party as they are dictated to by the press and parrot what they say and do.
