Devin Nunes calls media 'biggest problem in US' after attempted bombing

By Tommy Christopher - October 31, 2018


Just like Trump, Nunes continued to whip up hatred of the media after last week's attempted bombings.

After a string of attempted bombings that included the New York City headquarters of CNN, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) followed Trump’s lead by attacking the press.

During an interview on the “Unfiltered Fresnocast” that was taped Saturday, Nunes told host Jim Verros, “The biggest problem we have right now in the United States of America is, we don’t have a free and fair media.”

He absurdly claimed that 90 percent of journalists are “owned by left-wing billionaires,” and that only 5 percent “are legitimate journalists.”

“And even some of those journalists are not able to get real information out there because they are owned by a billionaire of some kind, and they know if they tell the truth, they can’t get it out,”

But it’s ludicrous for a weasel like Nunes to cry about there not being allowed a conservative voice in the public sphere.
