Trump White House seeks tighter grip on message with new limits on press
"In free countries, like the United States is, leaders don't get to pick who covers them day in and day out"
I love how lately, we need to clarify that the US is a free country, as if it wasn't a given.
Was a free country, until we clean house and restore rule of law.
I love how you need to clarify that you are NOT a velociraptor, as if it wasn’t a given.
Username checks out.
Well, unless you have a way to check that every single user on the internet is not a velociraptor, it's not a given.
I just like being clear about myself.
(It's also very annoying when people keep calling you velociraptor just because they saw jurassic park and think they know how a velociraptor looks like)
we told them this would happen while they were both sidesing trump and the republican magats for the last 8 years, we told them if they kept down peddling the republican threat to civil liberties and the rule of law, one of the first things they'd do is restrict the free press, and eventually turn their lights off. media decided they wanted to gorge on views for ad revenue instead, catering to the lowest common denominator. and now it comes to pass.
The whole reason that the White House Press Corps was set up was to provide a way to shape the news by providing access.
If access isn't being provided anymore, do something better with the time.
