White House: we don't like the media attacking us

[someoneyouknow]

In what can only be described as the most hypocritical remark to date by the freshman Trump administration, they have vowed to continue to use the nebulous term, "fake news", any time the media points out the lies of the administration or, even more unbelievably, does their job and doesn't rubber stamp whatever inane rant Trump blurts out.

"There is a monumental desire on behalf of the majority of the media, not just the pollsters, the majority of the media to attack a duly elected President in the second week of his term," Gorka, a former Breitbart editor who also holds a PhD in political science, told syndicated conservative radio host Michael Medved.

"That's how unhealthy the situation is and until the media understands how wrong that attitude is, and how it hurts their credibility, we are going to continue to say, 'fake news.' I'm sorry, Michael. That's the reality," he added.

Gorka went on to say he and his counterparts at Pravda and RT were both joined at the hip in their insistence that whatever comes out of either the Trump or Putin regimes is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, and no amount of fact checking would change their stance.

What part of, "the jig is up", don't you understand?

 

[Rightguide]

Media: We don't like Trump calling us out when we lie.

 

[JackLuis]

The People: "We don't like it when the press sucks Orange dick, only Black, Brown, White and Yellow are acceptable, no Nazi pecker heads will be tolerated."

Media: We don't like Trump calling us out when we lie.

The trouble is in his universe the truth is a lie and vice versa .
I blame it on him reading too many Superman comics set in Bizarro World .

Media: We don't like Trump calling us out when we lie.

Examples (and your sources)? Until then, I'll just continue thinking you're the one lying and the one who is a Trump dupe/dope.

Pravda still publishes?!

Go right ahead. It's not my fault you're ignorant and too lazy to become informed. If you're unaware at this stage of the fake news of CNN and the MSM you're too far gone to be redeemed. So happy cluelessness.

 

[sr71plt]

Yeah, I knew you didn't have the chops to grasp the issues.

Nor are you going to answer whose repurposed alt you are.

And, as I've posted before, I don't rely on any reporting on what Trump says or does. I see/listen to him doing it directly. I don't require any intermediary to know that the man is a congenital liar and crazier than a loon (F60.81). He shows that to me himself. I laugh at you to be too dumb to see--or admit--it yourself. You're just a Trump dupe/dope sad sack.

 

[LincolnDuncan]

This is the most antagonistic administration I've ever seen. Far, far worse than Nixon's paranoia. They are constantly on attack and cry fowl when challenged. What a punch of punks!

Pussyhats are applicable to the left. I saw a child wearing a pussyhat yesterday, looked at her Mom and said, "of course."

 

[sr71plt]

Yeah, the pink pussyhats are more than a bit too tame. Viking helmets might be more appropriate.

 

[KingOrfeo]

If you're unaware at this stage of the fake news of CNN and the MSM . . .

IME, every time some specific instance is pointed out, it turns out not to be. There was a whole thread on this, it ran to seven pages, and not one purported example held up.

Yes, well, the new Rightguide alt hasn't been able to post anything that held any truth to it yet either.

It's hard to hold swamp water in a tow sack. All you're left with is sludge.

 

[Carnal_Flower]

It's all out assault if you ask me.

Pravda still publishes?!

Yes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravda

 

[sr71plt]

Pravda is a state voice piece. Why wouldn't it publish? I'm sure Trump wished he had a state voice piece too (other than his twitter account).

 

[KingOrfeo]

Pravda is a state voice piece. Why wouldn't it publish?

Well, it was originally an organ of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (and said so on the masthead).

 

[sr71plt]

Well, it was originally an organ of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (and said so on the masthead).

Which also made it the state organ.

 

[KingOrfeo]

Which also made it the state organ.

And we on the Lit know a lot about organs!
