they enjoyed the benefits of the ratings for every "he ate a cheese sandwich" report so now it's time to fix it.

to get him accepted as a "leader" to expose him and destroy him for good. Many are already working on it by not letting go of the Russian connection, not only with many people in the transition team, but the Con himself. Some of the real journalists still left, you can see they smell a BIG SCANDAL looming. I'm betting within six months we'll see the stripping of all those covers from this admin. and the collapse of The Great Con!

I really wish they would but the milquetoast bullshit seems to be continuing apace.

I realize some actual journalists are doing great work, but for the mainstream cable news outlets that reach the most viewers, they need to step it the fuck up. They created this mess. It should have been easy to destroy him ages ago with all the dirt that's out there!

Wouldn't it make more financial sense to investigate and get them outta there?? Didn't even the Koch brothers and others feel uneasy about the idiots in the current admin? Unfortunately I don't think the mainstream news outlets will be allowed do shit until the owners dictate otherwise.

Nonetheless I hope the media can overcome and step it up as much as they can.

FIGHT.

The (free?) Press have to ask good questions to elected politicians & push them for answers.

Stop publishing OPINION from trumps personal twitter or whatever spews from kellyannes hired mouth. what they say, and those personal tweets say are not official government statements, its tabloid junk
