Tell the F'ing Media to do their F'ing job!

[Farmgirl1961]

I am so royally pissed off at the media for NOT doing their job. I know, I know -- it's a ratings game. All about viewership and entertaining and getting people off of social media and back to watching the TeeVee. But give me a break. All this pandering to Trump has led us to a dangerous precipice. The entire world is watching us with baited breath and takes us for a bunch of racists and ignorant citizenry.

So -- what do we the people need to do to get the media to do their job and divulge what a lying sack of sh*t Trump is? Someone once put up a bunch of twitter account information and explained how easy it was to lodge a complaint, only I didn't really get it.

Emails? Old fashioned letters to the editors? phone calls? what do we need to do to make the media understand that "We the (sane) people have had enough of this BS"? As much as I'm hoping that Trump put his only foot in his mouth enough times to make a mockery of himself (which he does daily and MSM seems not to notice), I think it's time we protest and make the media do their job. I'm ready -- I'm fired up and ready to call the media out.


Phwew -- I feel a bit better now after that rant.

1. I tweet them on a daily basis. They made this dangerous piece of shit

2. M$M is so deplorable, they probably see Trump as an investment. n/t

3. onecaliberal -- can you tell me a bit more

about who you tweet? I have a twitter account and do some tweets -- but it is mainly copy and paste from news articles. Kind of newbie in the world of tweeting, but I do want to give them a piece of my mind.

4. I tweet @abc @nbc @cbs @fox @cnn @msnbc and print media as well.

And I tell them they created Trump to make money. I ask why they're lowering the bar and not telling the truth. I tweet questions I think they should be asking. I also tweet links and ask why they let him lie about different things I see on air. I also tweet anchors same kinds of things. I rail at them for normalizing racist bigoted bully spewing bullshit day in and out acting as though both sides do it.
On edit: you can search for twitter handles. They can also block you. I've been blocked by Chuck Todd, Donald Trump and Uday trump.

5. Thank you for your awesome tweets!! You have inspired me!

I will take your lead and start doing the same kind of thing. I just can't continue to sit on the sidelines as the media turn news reporting into a joke and keeps Trump propped up.

6. I've thought about tweeting at different media,

but I'm a little leery of being targeted by Trump trolls/alt-right types. Some of the stories I've heard are pretty hair-raising - and it's especially concerning since I use my real name.

Have you had any problems with them? I'm probably just being a big chicken...

8. At times yes, I block them and go down their Timelines and block many of their followers too.

Twitter can definitely get mean. I obviously don't use my actual name. You wouldn't have to use your name either.

11. Thanks!

I think I'll change the name on my account first...

7. Good - thanks for doing that!

I get so angry at the media sometimes. Your way sounds much more cathartic than yelling at the TV.

9. I get angry as well which is what compels me to tweet at them. It does help.

10. I tweet almost daily...

They need to wake up. The life of the M$M under a President Donald Trump will be miserable at best and intolerable at its worst. I not only tweet @MSNBC, @CNN, et al, I also tweet some of the worst offenders including Andrea Mitchell @MitchellReports.

It doesn't take long and at least I'm doing something...
