Propaganda push starts: Carrier Denies Local Reporter Access To Trump 'Celebration'

Propaganda 101: Carrier Denies Local Reporter Access To Trump 'Celebration'

Indy reporter Rafael Sánchez has been covering the Carrier layoffs since February of this year when they were first announced. He traveled to Mexico to illustrate how no American could afford to live on the $3 per day paycheck Carrier would pay plant workers there, and he has aggressively covered their decision to ship jobs out.


As Sánchez reports, the question of exactly how many jobs were actually saved is in question, too. In fact, the real reporting on this should be that Mike Pence, as governor of Indiana, basically bribed Carrier into keeping half or possibly less than half of the jobs there, while sending the rest to Mexico.

Expect more of this coming from the Trump administration. Do not trust the Press!

to pull back curtains and they can't have that

"This should also serve as a warning to all of us. Reporters who actually report the truth and facts will be locked out."

If this is how Trump negotiates, we are screwed.
