Any member of The Freerepublic who is supporting Faux news is supporting the enemy propaganda press, a more subtle propaganda than CNN and maybe more subversive.

CNN, it’s lawyers and Acosta are deceiving the American public https://t.co/ZOB7ZSuWVM— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 14, 2018

Acosta has access to the White House, the same every other opinion writer or op-ed writer has. He remains a member of the press corps and he can apply for a daily WH press pass. The only thing he lost is a hard pass, which clears him daily w/o need for a day pass. https://t.co/BOMvAxJ1HS— Ari Fleischer (@AriFleischer) November 13, 2018

Actually, Acosta did not assault the intern. However, the assault ‘charge’ was brilliant. Acosta’s obnoxiousness would have never been replayed by the media otherwise. In their quest for Acosta’s vindication, they had to play the tape over and over again. Even if edited down to the moment, Acosta looks like a complete asshole.

We stopped watching any Faux News after MeAgin tried to lynch candidate Trump at the fake debates.

Then, pulled the plug on the local Fox tv channel when they played a triple fake news gotcha gang bang on elected President Trump in 2017 until he was sworn in.

I still go to Fox News online for some of their online news and op eds. That is basically 3 quickies: A quick review of online Faux early in the morning, about noon and about 6 pm California time.

“Business decision”; I would be surprised if this is much more than a token show of support ...

If the president wished, he could stop holding press conferences altogether. He also has a lot of other options. There is no constitutional requirement for him to hold press conferences.

As a side note to this thread, please consider my 2c about FN.

Judge Andrew Napolitano is the only FN person that has referenced (decade ago) Congress’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers. And I suspect that he was reprimanded for doing so.

Judge Andrew Napolitano (about 3 minutes)

Although I like FN people like Laura Ingraham, Judge Jeanine Pirro, Steve Hilton, Mark Levin, other FN people are part of the liberal (Soros?) propaganda machine imo.

The primary responsibility of all FN news people is to keep viewers' attention glued to the screen for the next high-dollar commercial.

Also, patriots are reminded that there is nothing stopping the states from repealing the ill-conceived 17th Amendment any time they want too.

The 16th Amendment needs to disappear too.

They can, they’d rather keep it going. I believe the whole get acosta thrown out was all planned by cnn in advance. Ted Koppel was right, cnn ratings would be crap without DJT to talk about. Now they have a perpetual story.

I think that the president should pull all press credentials and only give them back to those willing to sign a contract that acknowledges a code of behavior in the press room when taking questions by the president or his representative

What you suggested should be posted on the outside doors of the press room and inside it in several locations.

Then, maybe have the mediots sign a copy of this, that they have read it and understand it. Then, when they try to Accost anyone, they can be banned.

They’ve done it all, from Jumping-The-Shark, to Drinking-The-Koolaid.

It’s like a lot of folks. Make millions on one viewership and then let the inner core come out.

This is a lesson as to why wealthy folks should not let their kids anywhere near the business nor should they leave them any monies.

I would prefer to see the White House cancel all press credentials and instead award them on a lottery basis every day to anyone who is willing to undergo a background check.

Imagine of the White House press room is filled every day with a random group of visitors to D.C., or with a bunch of people like the morons you see outside the window in the background on those morning TV shows. LOL.

"I so wish that at Trump's next "press conference," he will state this reality once and for all. And then I hope he will take a question from Jim Acosta, after prefacing it with the following statement:"

Acosta's pass was suspended. I would rather not see or hear from Acosta. The President is fighting the world after taking all of the requests for speech and action that he possibly could have taken from us. I would rather see a lawyer make the statement.

As an aside,the Left always says that the Second Amendment doesn’t include automatic weapons because they weren’t invented when it was approved?

Using that logic, the First Amendment’s freedom of the press should only apply to newspapers and pamphlets, not radio, TV and the internet

To complete that analogy, presses should be limited to those of the colonial era, single sheet only, no "automatic assault the intellect" presses allowed. No electronic publishing, no electrostatic or ink jet printers at all.

Single sheet press of nascent republic.

The press doesn’t have a right to be in the White House. It’s a privilege.

Except for the last hour of Fox and Friends (California and PST here) and maybe the first 30 minutes of Bill Hemmer - just for breaking morning news - Fox has been completely off in my house. I used to have it running in the background all day and half the night.

I know there are a few other decent hosts, but I can't bring myself to watch them after Fox's election night stunt.

I will probably dump Fox and just stick with Rush, a little of Fox Business News, and the internet for news.

The world's gone mad. Back to gardening, working on the house, reading, and cooking. You can only take so much.
