Why is the press trying to make this all normal?

[dajoki]

There is nothing normal about what we are going through. I find it all disgusting.

1. Ratings and lack of Patriotism n/t

[Skittles]

2. they care about ratings more than they care about America

fuck them

[FiveGoodMen]

3. If Trump isn't stopped, the only way the press can continue is to cooperate

There's no sign of him being stopped, so they are making plans to continue their day-to-day operations. (Keep their jobs)

4. See how long it takes CNN to totally flip to pro Trump.....

The Cheeto News Network...............

5. All I expect the press to do is report what is happening.

When they try to interpret it, that's when things go all floppy and quivery.

6. they mostly think they are in a protected bubble. That they are above any impacts.

Just looking for those entertainment dollars...

7. Why did they make 2000 and 2001 normal?

Money.

8. I just sent my

Senators an e mail to stop normalizing this man's agenda.

I think the Senators do not want the citizens to panic, they have all the information though. But we are not in a panic we can see what is going on and in my e mails I do explain that. I still like to know what Congressman Cummings knew and said if we only knew, what is that all about?

Also we are not going to pay for NO WALL.

The media on the other hand is propaganda excluding Rachel, all the sources we go to here on DU are extensive. There are many progressive sites out there, and then let's not forget our journalists they need their jobs to inform us what is going on.

I may be singing to the choir here but we do have a vast amount of resources on DU which I am very grateful for.

9. I've been pleasantly surprised by the push-back they've been giving Trump.

[Angry Dragon]

10. perhaps he has bought them all

11. What aspect of "the press" are you accusing?

Seriously it's tiring to see people lump all media outlet together and claim they're all "in the tank". They're not; the coverage this week has made that clear.

[dajoki]

13. I hardly think so...

you can find sites around here and on the web that will tell the truth. But for the most part the MSM is trying to make this all seem like any other ordinary transition. I saw Dan Rather on Rachel's show the other night and he even said "its like being in the twilight zone." I feel the same way.
