He doesn’t want you to hate the media, just know that they lie.

Which they do.

Daily.

I didn’t need Trump to make me hate the media. I have hated those scumbags for many years.

Exactly right. He said many times that he watches a variety of programs and reads many papers. He likes the media, they helped build up his persona not just in the run for POTUS but for decades. And he knows that and said as much, even naming the shows he watches which media people know is great unpaid promotion.

Like you said, he just wants you to know they are not interested in fairness or balance or even reporting. They choose what to write and how to spin it. A perfect example happened this week: The US changed its position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to where it no longer favors a 2 state solution, instead he is open to whatever the two sides can come to agree upon. This is an official killing of the Oslo plan, which had all but failed anyway. And given the chance to ask questions about this to Trump and Israeli PM Netanyahu, the media instead wanted to spend a 3rd day asking about who spoke to whom in Russia and when. They are not interested in anything that they cannot immediately use to disparage Trump, even when it is old news. Any other President and this I-P policy shift would be front page news.

True. He only hates those liars who are undermining the country and the MSM has been actively lying for 100 years, ever since JP Morgan bought all the major APs and all publishing agencies, etc. The globalists knew by the early 1900s, when Ida Tarbell went wild, that they had to buy up and control all the major “news” outlets or their plan would fail and they would be unable to get us into wars, etc, and make their billions.

All goes back to Wittgenstein. Whomever controls the information/words/images can get anyone to “believe” anything they want-—even the most irrational things like men can be women.

Only with the internet are the masses getting some “truth”, but, we are still getting more lies than truth from the “system”—”news”, universities, govt., skools, etc. The Marxist took over the institutions by the 60s—State dept. by the 40s, universities by the 30s, news by 1916.

Truth will set us free. The Left is desperately trying to get total control over the internet-——and its 1984 if they do!!!! Then, Slavery will be Freedom, Vice will be Virtue—whoops, it is being taught to our children now—and War will be Peace.
