MSM lies about the media war with Trump

[Doublejack]

Ok, validate this.


Please post a link of where Trump has specified and been critical of the "honest media" or the "unbiased media". All I can find is where he is critical of fake news or dishonest media. I realize that it is your duty to the left to subjectively attack your political opponent, but to say he is critical of all media that he objects to appears to be a generalization.

Please post an example of how Trump lashes out at 1 and 4 in the OP.

Please link your unbiased and honest media source.

It all really depends on who's defining honest and unbiased media.

I don't know that you get my point.

This is the crux of the issue. For Trump he's living in the world that he defines.

Here is my point, as presented in the OP:

The MSM is presenting a lie about the war that they are engaged in against Trump. They are persuading their audience to believe Trump has something against a free press and journalism. They are presenting his comments about fake, hostile, and biased media as if they were comments about free press and good journalism.

Regardless of what media he perceives as hostile, he is not attacking free press or good journalism, since he has isolated which specific media he is attacking. Where the big lie comes in is when the media and lefties paint a picture of Trump out to hurt the free press. He has specified which parts of the press he is badmouthing, regardless of his comments have any merit, and I have not seen him go after free press.

We have seen him go after the "dishonest media", and "fake news", but not the free press. To imply that Trump has it in for the "free press" is a big lie.

Where in the world that Trump defines, or any other place, is he going after the free press? I have seen him go after the "dishonest media", and the "fake news", but not the free press. This is the crux of my thread. By painting him as attacking the free press, it may rally support against him by pulling heart strings, but it is a big lie.

That's your opinion. You, like Trump are framing the argument that he only attacks unfair media, yet you are both defining unfair media by your own set of standards.

This was asked already, but what do you consider to be an unbiased fair source of news? Can you name one or some?
