“Waaaaah, we have to be in the room so we can ask snarky, loaded questions, talk over the answers, then “report” on them in the worst way possible!” We don’t loathe the press enough.

SteveO's avatar

That is exactly the point of all of this.

The MSM is really mad now. WaPo said they are boycotting the Whitehouse, taking their toys and going home. That will show the mean, orange man.

I think that what they're really afraid of is that, if they're not seen on TV in the press pool or on the plane, no one will notice or care. The MSM has been circling the drain for awhile now. This is just one more reminder that they’re irreverent.

ELKFLA, excellent point. Millions of us no longer tune in to fake news sources at all; especially after Covid. And I include Faux News in that. There are so many alternative sources out there now that are far superior.

ELKFLA's avatar

True, but online sources are not much better. A whole lot of TikTok is straight up propaganda. Online providers need to try harder. There's nothing worse than amateur PsyOps that are so sloppy and obvious that the seams show. Come on, people, have some pride in your work! ;-)

I often wonder who to believe in the news. Stopped watching most of it these last 5-6 years. All the outlets seem pretty biased based on political views and capture by big Pharma. I’m all for free speech, but not free lies.

Skenny's avatar

MSM is not a good place to get news. It is now on the second or third level in the Democrat org chart... in the propaganda branch.

Jennifer L.'s avatar

Roberta Stack, may I humbly suggest you start watching (and reading) Promethean Action videos. You can find their channel on YouTube to see if you like them. They do not accept any ad $ at all.

Fantastic! I LOVE PA! Highly recommend tuning in!

JudyC's avatar

She is excellent!

An even better solution than the “CNN, MSNOW, Politico ban would be banning Big Pharma ads. Two Big Mean Birds down with a single stone.

Great idea. But then, some people won't know that this drug they need to inform their doctor to give them "may cause death."

KatWarrior's avatar

What a great idea! LOVE IT!

Make Armpit Farts Great Again!

(Your first comment is about armpit farts 🤷‍♂️)

On the first day of my 4th grade, as new-to-our-school Ms. Mahomes was writing her name on the board, I launched an underam salvo to give her an idea of who she was dealing with. She turned, and addressed the class, "What he eat to do that?"

Touche', Ms. Mahomes, touche'. We parried, to and fro, from that day on.

You gotta love teachers with a good come back.

LOL! thanks for my morning belly laugh!

I think one of the best things he can do right now is to get rid of the EO that Obummer did allowing propaganda from government and include it with the MSM since the Deep State dictates what the MSM news prints and speaks.

Real journalism is all but dead in the US. As recently as the 1950s and 60s, we were taught, in English class and writing classes in both high school and college, how to write a news story. I haven't read one of those in years! And when the headline/title leads you to believe something false before you even get to the story, that is worse. I think news people ought to be required, like doctors and other professionals, to attend and actually learn from continuing education classes, if for no other reason than to remind them to always tell the truth. Then, if their work doesn't show that they know what they're doing, send them out to pasture. Or to work at McDonald's or some equivalent. Just stop lying to us!

Anna Lafferty's avatar

IMO, all sides are complicit. Using inflammatory language instead of just giving facts and/or making clear it's an opinion, not a fact.

Trump to the media: “GET OFF MY LAWN!” 😆

KatWarrior's avatar

Gran Torino! Go Walt! One of my all time favourites.

Don't mess with The Don! Hahahahahahaha

Jennifer L.'s avatar

Jenna, definitely, especially since they keep 💩💩💩 on it.

KatWarrior's avatar

1000% I am with you on this! We all should take a page from Don's Playbook! It's none of your business what other people think of you. Period. Full stop.

JudyC's avatar

My mom’s favorite saying that I heard many many times growing up! “Your opinion of me is none of my business!”

He "banned" three. 26 others are still listed and welcome.

Bravo Jenna. Bravo! Excellent coverage here ... as the media's ever-shifting tectonic plates are now poised for 9.2! I would upgrade, but I'm already paying for 6 substacks! I will ... shortly.

Stay the course ...

The press isn't doing its job though, if all they print are lies. Fiction is not news. I don't blame him. Watched the reel you highlighted. I think all he would have to do is play that reel in court and rest his case. Also freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom of access to the White House. Not sure why they think it does.

Marlene Swann's avatar

I read that the other networks were joining the ban “in solidarity.” Did that include Fox News? I didn’t see their name listed, only the 3 networks that normally come to mind. (Without mentioning their names, the phonies!)

Jenna McCarthy's avatar

Yes, Fox News joined the boycott. It’s in the story!😉

Debby's avatar

I can understand FOX joining the boycott since they were supported when they were banned by Obama.

Jennifer L.'s avatar

Debby, more likely they joined the boycott because they have been anti-Trump since 2016. I still recall the picture of Rupert Murdoch schmoozing it up with Obama’s bestie, Valerie Jarrett, at some fancy dinner event. 🤢🤮

The Great Santini's avatar

Just an observation, but if I showed up at the WH and demanded access to the Oval Office, I don’t think I would be allowed in. I don’t have many followers, but I have some. I usually confine my bon mots to the comment section. But still, why not. At least I tell the truth. I think that would make me more suitable than CNN, MSNOW, etc. Just sayin’.

Meddling Kid's avatar

Those who believe this is in any way a constitutional issue don’t have the first clue what the freedom of the press clause means, and should try to locate a 1940s-era independent Soviet journalist to discuss.

Vee's avatar

Other- another distraction. Yes, we all get it. The ruling class wants us to believe that Trump is "anti-establishment" and is not a part of the predatory class, but his actions (inactions) as POTUS tell another story.

$500 BILLION for Stargate Project to roll out the AI surveillance control grid, war with Iran, billions more and military partnerships with Israel, while Americans suffer and die from the "beautiful" clot shot that Trump approved with Operation Warp Speed.

Great comment.

Why won't/can't "We the People" Wake Up? We are Squandering Our American Inheritance!

His globalist owners want him to be an impossible to revere clown in order to demoralize the citizenry, in order to usher in their NWO.
