White House Correspondents' Association rebukes Trump over tweet on press credentials [View all]
The White House Correspondents' Association fired back at President Trump on Wednesday after he suggested revoking press credentials for journalists who cover his administration critically.
"Some may excuse the president's inflammatory rhetoric about the media, but just because the president does not like news coverage does not make it fake," Margaret Talev, the group's president and a White House correspondent for Bloomberg, said in a statement.
"A free press must be able to report on the good, the bad, the momentous and the mundane, without fear or favor," she continued. "And a president preventing a free and independent press from covering the workings of our republic would be an unconscionable assault on the First Amendment."

NOW we have entered the full blown autocrat stage.
It is time to take away Trump's credentials.
