I see Trump floated the idea of stripping creditials from most of the news media, with the only suggested reason being negative coverage btw. This is very unnerving to me. Blasting the coverage as fake and trying to destroy their credibility is concerning to me, but not anti-American. This idea....unless done with specific investigations on story sources and with adequate control and oversight....is the beginning of a much more dangerous potential happening. Russians know.

Since all the communist news networks and other d**k sucking liberal reporters were lapping up all his pronouncements, why did he need to shut up the only agency that pointed out how stupid some of his opining was?

I hope he does....there would certainly be lawsuits to follow. It would be an obvious violation of the First Amendment. Of course this is just more of the the orange, narcisistic f'uckface bloviating.

Yes, as a matter of fact, his administration did.

For some reason I thought it happened where a reporter from Fox News was denied access to Air Force 1 and the other news agencies came to Fox's rescue saying that they should be allowed on the plane just as they were. Is that correct?

I think he just gets pissed over 91% negative coverage when we are seeing record job growth among Blacks and minorites ignored at the expense of a Porno movie making *****. I don't favor yanking their credentials but I most certainly encourage avoiding their biased coverage and finding alternate sources of media that's a little more balanced.

Where in the Constitution are media malcontents guaranteed a seat in the Oval Office daily news briefings? They can't spew their hatred from the Hallway outside?

Fox was denied access to something and the other news outlets called ********. I don’t remember the exact circumstances but I do recall the board reds on here at the time were all giddy that Obama was pushing back against FNC.

And to be clear, I’m not in favor of pulling their credentials. I am in favor of continuing to blast them on their biased reporting and in favor of the WH pushing the positive messages out via whatever means necessary.

Lol, faulty analogies are the rights lifeblood. Save your comparisons, Trump will never have the credibility that Obama has. Trump generates his own bad press and troubles and if you want to argue that Barrack whined about bad press and indictments of his campaign staff like Trump does it just makes you look stupid.

Hey 76 know what the difference was? The media had to fake news to make Obama look good. The same media uses fake news to try and make Trump look bad.

A simple google search goes a long way. Careful though, it might take you away from your trusted sources.

Then it shouldn't be hard for you to support your claim.

Looks like another productive thread to dive into....

Obama is a commie and Trump is a Nazi.

Who the F*ck cares about Obama? And just because that f*cker did or did not do something , does that mean every other President after him as to do or not do everything Obama did?

Lol, Trump thinks anything negative about him is "fake", he is the rubes hero now, they could care less what he does or whether it makes sense as long as they think they are "sticking" it to the liberals. But the latest on his "lawyer" Cohen taking that 500K from the oligarch? Hmmmm, I can see why he would tell his minions it is all fake news, they'll believe what they wanna believe. And I'll compare Obama and Trump when he catches up to him in experience, like 1.5 years to 8 now. Who knows, maybe Trump will succeed and destroy America like the idiots all whined Obama wanted to do. Now go suck it up because the :"Scouts" dropped the "boy", winning! lol.

Or for you to disprove it. Hint: ATL linked it for you. Cunty wrong again. Shocker.

I have atl on ignore; I have no idea what he ever says and don’t care.

I did a google search for obama denies access to Fox and come up with nada. I also did a search for obama remove press credentials from Fox and get nada.

So, just as I suspected, you can’t provide proof of another claim.

Why would he whine? Everybody covering him has his d**k in their mouth except Fox News reporters? Truly the worst President since Carter and tied for the worst with Carter.

Well, you are wrong and he threaten it and the rest of the news agencies, to their credit, voiced their displeasure and it was suspended. It was to deny access to AF1.

Wonder if Obama ever said “FoxNews was destructive to America”?

I mean, it’s almost like Obama said and did the same **** you all whine and wail about Trump for.

I see one instance when he denied them access, and others where he tried to discredit them. Trump discredits media daily - concerning, but not nearly as dangerous as removing credentials- which Trump was proposing as a measure to eliminate their permanent access. Not a single instance, but a total denial of access. Big difference.
