Conway: There’s no question that when you look at the contributions made by the media, money contributions, they went to Hillary Clinton. We have all the headlines, people should be embarrassed. Not one network person has been let go. Not one silly political analyst and pundit who talked smack all day long about Donald Trump has been let go. They are on panels every Sunday. They’re on cable news every day.

Who’s the first editorial — the first blogger that will be left out that embarrassed his or her outlet? We know all their names. I’m too polite to call them by name. But they know who they are, and they’re all wondering, will I be the first to go?

The election was three months ago. None of them have been let go. If this were a real business, if the mainstream media were a thriving private sector business that actually turn a profit, which is not true of many of our newspapers, Chris, 20 percent of the people would be gone. They embarrassed, they failed to protect their shareholders and their board members and their colleagues.

And yet we deal with him every single day. We turn the other cheek. If you are part of team Trump, you walk around with these gaping, seeping wounds every single day, and that’s fine. I believe in a full and fair press.

I especially like the idea of gaping seeping wounds to an exhausted, sleepless borg.

6. You have to love that the right loves to trash us as having "victim mentality"...

Yet they are always eager to paint themselves as victims. Trump has had unfettered media access for nearly two years. It was rare during the primary to turn on a morning show on cable news where he hadn't called in to the show, or to see a rally that wasn't covered in its entirety, purely because the media ate up his sensationalistic crap. Now Kellyanne wants us to believe that somehow they are the victims of the press. And why? Because the press isn't bowing down to the "Dear Leader" and the press is actually performing its job and reporting the disasterous, narcissistic crap going on in the West Wing. But poor poor Kellyanne. She's been treated so unfairly. I'm sorry but fuck that. This is nothing more than a not so clever way of discrediting the media while at the same time deflecting away from the rump administration's real agenda.

10. They keep complaining about press coverage and how unfair the press is being to them.

Now they want reporters fired because they said bad things about DT and haven't apologized. Have none of them read the Constitution and noticed the part about a free press? I fully expect them to try to limit press coverage of their actions. They want to control the press and turn it into a propaganda outlet.

Omarosa said that we would bow down to Trump, and KellyAnn Conlady is comparing him to Jesus. WTH?
