If I were a board member of any of the major publicly owned media companies, I would take note of the increasingly strident tone of his tweets, especially knowing that Trump does not pull punches when fighting back.   He probably has the information that he needs about the coordination between IC and specific journalists.   

 

The board members now need to look at whether Trump will look at the media companies in the way that the Feds looked at Arthur Andersen or how they looked at Wells Fargo.  Both of those cases involved employees who engaged in illegal/unethical conduct.  Difference is that in one, the government decided to file charges against the company and not only the individuals.   All they need to show is that if there was unorthodox cooperation, it extended beyond a single journalist.

POTUS is a BORG! :o

 

No, no. Clearly the media is in his head, and he now needs to be impeached, removed from office, voted out by the electoral college, and Hillary installed as Supreme Leader for all eternity.

The cocktail circuit comments I have been making in regards to the boy's wives were based on pretty loud whispers. Fox isn't their dad's network anymore. They are gonna drive it over the edge... there was a cartoon last month? The month before? where Fox was watching CNN hit a fake news iceberg and start to sink. Fox has been heading in the same direction. People have just been a tad slower to catch on as their weeknight (after 8pm) line-up isn't really liberal or #nevertrump. Shep and Cavuto though?  Oy.
