He demanded “retribution” over a “Saturday Night Live” sketch, declared that Washington Post reporters “shouldn’t even be allowed on the grounds of the White House,” and accused The New York Times of “Treason.” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/30/business/media/trump-media-2019.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leftwinger Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 Mr. Trump’s vilification of the news media is a hallmark of his tenure and a jagged break from the norms of his predecessors: Once a global champion for the free press, the presidency has become an inspiration to autocrats and dictators who ape Mr. Trump’s cry of “fake news.” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/30/business/media/trump-media-2019.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Trump praises Gianforte for assault on Guardian reporter Donald Trump has praised Greg Gianforte, the Congress member from Montana, for violently attacking a Guardian reporter, saying that someone who performs a body slam is “my guy”. Trump described in glowing terms the physical assault that occurred on 24 May 2017 when Ben Jacobs, the Guardian’s political correspondent, asked Gianforte a question about healthcare policy in the course of a special congressional election in Montana. The US president incited cheers and chants from a crowd of about 8,000 supporters on Thursday night when he said: “Greg is smart. And by the way, never wrestle him. You understand. Never.” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/oct/18/trump-greg-gianforte-assault-guardian-ben-jacobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Journalist got body slammed and Congressman was charged with assault. President didn't use any power to influence the charges. Reporter wasn't seriously injured. It's a non story. Not exactly a secret that Trump dislikes disrespectful reporters, he's never retaliated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
