Trump will 'will go directly to the American people, right over the top of the mainstream media'

a reply to: JeremySun

Even if Russia helped Donald Trump with Podesta emails, it does not mean Donald Trump is a puppet of Russia.

No, that's where the blackmail comes in.

Maybe you should be sued for libel, for calling her a liar. You can't prove that she lied.

I believe every women that came forward to back up Donald Trump's claim that he can grab and grope women without their consent, and news outlets had every right to tell those women's stories.

I can tell that you're another Trumpeteer that hates the Constitution and wants to fundamental change our 1st Amendment, as well as all the Amendments that your kinky Messiah intends to violate!

There's plenty of discussion you can join on the fake news outlets like CNN. Some people like fake news provided by CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NYT, WaPo.... it feeds their conspiracies about Russia and comforts them as to why Hillary lost., so I am sure that type of fake news will always have an audience.

Please stop misrepresenting what is going on. It is not about Clinton losing, it is about a foreign power influencing an election to place a potential puppet in power. I could care less about Clinton, I didn't even vote for her. That's the usual misdirection: dredge up the Hildebeest. Like any propagandist, you sound like a broken record.

No, it's about Clinton losing and the Democrat insane backlash in not accepting election results. Plain and simple. Trump has to go directly to the people because the liberal media is in meltdown and unable to be honest with themselves never mind the American people.

The truth often sounds like a broken record... it will always shine through and outlast the fake news in the end.

There are a few people who have genuine concerns and can voice them in a reasonable way, but no quarter is going to be given to the over emotional, spoiled brats that are just screaming every conspiracy theory they can lay their hands on in order to help themselves come to terms with Trump winning the presidency.

She's already been called a liar by the person sitting opposite her on the plane. She went quiet after that and CNN quickly tried to brush more of their fake news under the carpet.

It does not matter whether you like it, but Trump IS going to go directly to the people and I would not be surprised at all to see him exclude fake media outlets like CNN from the Whitehouse.

Trump's short video announcements were pretty good during the election and since. His 'first 100' days address was clear and direct.

Because it was read word for word from a teleprompter.

Making up things like 'Trump does not have the patience to actually produce a coherent video' makes you sound as if you are denying what has actually been provided already simply because you don't like Trump.

And constantly dodging the issue to accuse others of "not liking Trump" makes it sound like you have no other defense. Trump supporters criticized Clinton for not holding enough press conferences during the campaign, even though the press were welcome to travel with her. Trump has shut himself off from the press and went months without a press conference, and when he finally held, he brought props and a cheering gallery.

As for the fact checking media, fewer and fewer people care about left wing fact checkers.

Can you prove that broad statement with actual statistics? It's true that it is now possible for American citizens to cocoon themselves from real journalism, and subsist on a diet of lies if they so choose. There are people who think "exo-politics" is a real thing. (Were you surprised when the "ET channelers" started praising Vladimir Vladimirovich? I wasn't.)

They have been shown to determine accuracy based on political ideology and are therefore worthless.

You have it backwards: sometimes they base their ideology on what is accurate. Granted, we now see media like NBC starting to spin in Trump's favor, but that's because in a free media market, they can do that if they want. Freedom of expression guarantees that people can say what they want, even if they disagree with you. Other people's opinions are not "worthless." Of course, you need to have the ability to think critically, which some factions are trying to remove from school curricula. (This is not even a left-right issue, BTW.)

The idea that a FAKE NEWS outlet like CNN, for example, would have any credibility in fact checking is rather crazy,

I know: you think any news that is not approved by the Kremlin is FAKE NEWS. Your love of censorship and state control is disturbing.

Whatever dude, hillary lost.

It's never been a problem before. There are claims of blackmail video material against Bill Clinton, allegations Obama slept with Rahm Emanuel and people know about it... loads of BS fake news stories. Lets just assume everyone is being blackmailed, right?

Your blackmail fantasies are shared by the fake news media, which is exactly why your new President is bypassing them.

why shouldn`t he talk directly to the people, he works for the people, we the people don`t need an intermediary to tell us what the president said,complete with their own spin on it.

Absolutely NAILED it with this post.

*applause*

The media used to be a 'check and balance' as it were. It could be counted on for a reasonable basis of the current news and truth. Those were the days of Walter Cronkite, and more recently Peter Jennings and Barbra Walters and Connie Chung.

Those days are long Gone Now we have the latest bimbo or Emasculated geeble-dude blathering in front of the camera. There is no truth, beyond that that can't be hidden from the public.

President Donald Trump put the kai-bash on the news however and put them on notice. I might add, "I would not want to go up against the President, as a citizen or as a corporation or news outlet, as there can be little or no success in the end.

Those people in the media are paying big$'s to maintain their lifestyles and exotic lifestyles they are, they will not deviate, instead they will 'Say what their told' , and like it.


Well, we ain't buying it anymore. nor our President.

Bill Clinton was actually confronted by his accusers. He was not blackmailed and weathered the storm. The allegations about Obama and Emanuel are just too bizarre. What Macedonian clickbait factory did you get that from? Yes; let's assume that everyone can potentially be blackmailed. Why do you keep pretending they can't be? The effectiveness of blackmail depends on its credibility: that may be one reason why the more lurid accusations in the dossier were not, erm, leaked.

It is easy to believe that Hillary Clinton had a lesbian affair. That might actually endear her to her base. It is reasonable to believe that Obama smoked marijuana in his youth. No big deal. It is a known fact that trump has run casinos and done business in Moscow and St. Petersburg. That makes any number of possile claims credible, some of which would completely compromise his position as President.

Do you get a bonus every time you say "fake news?" The President is avoiding the media because he hates being called out on his lies.

At the moment, people have the right to counter what the media says with their own opinions. They are free to check the facts for themselves and criticize what the media says. If Donald Trump gets his way, no-one will be able to speak up against him. Take advantage of the First Amendment while you still have it.

Get over it dude. Trump won. Deal with it: he's the one with the target on his back now, not Hillary.

Actually the Bill Clinton sex tape was a BS article circulating in the summer and was ignored (correctly).
The Obama / Emmanual gay love affair story is well known, and sounds like BS to me.

I guess you are willing to believe BS though when it suits. Like I said, you are just trying to come to terms with Trump being your President, so you are latching on to anything and everything. It's obvious.

EDIT : CNN=FAKE NEWS.

I'm saying that in the past you could count on a truthful disclosure of the news. It came unraveled big time during Bush administration when he rallied to invade Iraq. It was happening before then too, but the acceptability of fake news became increasingly acceptable (At least by politicians) and manifest increasingly till we now have blatant Liars selling their Snake Oil. Special interest......... might as well be SATAN.

I fail to see why giving free news stories and coverage to the archaic mainstream media should be required of him. They are unneeded in these days of mass internet communication.

Not to mention they for all intents and purposes declared war on Donald Trump over a year ago when he announced his run. Nope, he should make their pathetic lives as difficult as possible when it comes to reporting on him. He doesn't need them to talk to the American people, or the World for that matter.

Posing the question "what has he lied about" exemplifies the lengths some very (let's call them) "dedicated people" will go to disregard facts. He was a factless candidate, and this will be a factless Presidency. I say "Presidency", but that is in name only. He will be the CEO, and unaccustomed to having his remarks fact-checked, and unaccustomed to having his prolific infantile tantrums criticized. He's a caricature of a very bad leader, and an embarrassment to the country.
