Yeah except for the fact she refuses to say the media is not the enemy of the people. Other than that, yeah total respect.

The truth is this WH likes that there is a divide between them and the media. It keeps the mouth breathing portion of the base fired up. It keeps the fake news, us against them narrative going. I just hope it doesn't end up with someone in the media getting assaulted, because that's where it feels like this is going to end up.

CBS Prohibits Questions on Probe

CBS said allegations of sexual harassment against CEO Leslie Moonves would be off limits for questioning, and analysts stayed away from the topic

Typical hypocrites...the media refuses questions from the media and investors

WASHINGTON — Senate Republicans blocked a Democratic push Wednesday that would have provided $250 million to beef up election security.

The money would have been doled out in grants through the Federal Election Assistance Commission and helped, among other things, replace outdated voting equipment and increase cybersecurity efforts.

Seems the "fake news attacks by trump " are not working.

So far, however, Mr Trump’s broadsides have failed to dent faith in his targets. On behalf of The Economist, during the past three years YouGov, a pollster, has asked a representative sample of Americans to rate large American news organisations on a scale from “very trustworthy” to “very untrustworthy”. (We calculate net trustworthiness on a scale of -100 to 100 from a weighted average of “very trustworthy” (100), “trustworthy” (50), “neither trustworthy or untrustworthy” (0), “untrustworthy” (-50) and “very untrustworthy” (-100).) From October 15th 2016, shortly before he was elected, to this month, confidence in Mr Trump’s two most frequently targeted newspapers, the New York Times and Washington Post, has actually grown. During the same period, trust in two media outlets that offer him reliably fawning coverage, Fox News and Breitbart, has withered.
This trend is not only a product of liberal readers flocking to publications criticised by the president they revile. Instead, trust in America’s mainstream print media has improved across the political spectrum. Unsurprisingly, people who said they would or did vote for Hillary Clinton in 2016 now trust the Times and Post more, and Fox less, than they did two years ago. Yet even among people who support the president, net trust of Mr Trump’s bêtes noires has increased, albeit by much smaller amounts. Meanwhile, during the past two years, the New York Times’ monthly online readership has doubled to 130m. If anything is failing, it appears to be Mr Trump’s campaign to undermine trust in the press, not the Gray Lady.

This was a polictical ploy by Democrats and a great example of fake news. The ploy was the dems didn’t try to get support for this and wanted a down vote by The gop so they could tweet about it and so media would eat it up. There is a ton of context missing...a couple things...first our election process across the board is so flush with cash local boards are returning it. This doesn’t affect anything with the security of our mid terms. Most news orgs actually didn’t give this a lot Press because it was such a political ploy by dems.

Of course g1 runs with it.
