Trump clashes with reporter during coronavirus briefing: 'Be nice' (PBS)
The Hill ^ | John Bowden

Posted on 03/29/2020 7:47:30 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

President Trump clashed with a reporter on Sunday during a press briefing on the coronavirus outbreak in the Rose Garden.

"PBS NewsHour" reporter Yamiche Alcindor questioned Trump during the briefing over recent comments he made during an interview with Fox News's Sean Hannity about whether some requests from governors related to the outbreak were overblown or unnecessary.

Trump responded by first denying that he had made the comments, which were reported by multiple news outlets at the time, before accusing Alcindor of acting "threatening" during the briefing.

"Why don't you act in a little more positive? ... It's always get ya, get ya, get ya," Trump said to Alcindor. "You know what? That's why nobody trusts the media anymore."

"That's why you used to work for the [New York] Times and now you work for somebody else," he continued, speaking to Alcindor. "Look, let me tell you something. Be nice. Don't be threatening."

The “Parliament of Whores” could have added that to the Chinese Coronavirus Bill to make it a little easier to swallow.

Have not watched PBS for twenty years now. They used to have thoughtful shows like WallStreet Week.

I used to love watching the Mark Russell specials, back when political comedy skewered both parties instead of just the Republicans.

Yes! A must watch in our family. Those were the days. (See what I did?). Lots of fun. Now, we don’t laugh as much.

Dear “The Hill”

When one video that I actually WANTED to watch ends, please refrain from pushing the one you think I MIGHT want to see. *I* will make that decision.

There are few things I utterly HATE with every ounce of my being.

Auto-start videos are very near the top of that list.

which were reported by multiple news outlets at the time

Which means nothing since the press regurgitate each other all the time.

You think Yamiche Alcindor would try to pin down Pelosi on what she said?

Well, I looked up their Wikipedia pages. Yamiche was born in Florida to Haitian immigrant parents in the 1980s. Lew Alcindor (better known by his Muslim name) was born in NYC in 1947. So probably no connection—I don’t know if Kareem has Haitian ancestry.

“Stop funding NPR and PBS.”

Republicans have been asking their representatives to defund NPR and PBS for decades. Television and radio hosts never press Republicans about defunding left-wing organizations and it’s never brought up in any town halls or debates. Something needs to change.
