I don't think he is intrinsically evil like Hitler, a Markle, a Keys, an OOM, a typroneweaver, a koshergril, or a tipsycatlover among others.

But he is entitled and simply does not understand what is America.

A free press not engaged in criminal activity is American.

The Nazis also censored the Press.

Donald Trump just banned the Washington Post from covering his campaign

The Post joins a long list of blacklisted publications (including Mother Jones).

Why allow in a hostile press that is not free? Dumbass.
 
When a media outlet makes up the news it gets thrown out. This isn't censorship. They can still make up their stories. They just have no right of access.

Yo Dingle Berry

This is NOT censorship . Trump is NOT a government official. The Trump campaign is a PRIVATE entity. They don't have to allow an entity which is antagonistic to their interests,

I know you stupid socialists believe all property is government owned . But not yet.

You idiotic liberals will never understand that the Bill of Rights protects your rights from THE GOVERNMENT will you?

Let me ask you this, does Hillary have to start letting people carry weapons around her campaign ?

So Unfair&Unbalanced and Conty supports a man who does not willingly extend constitutional freedoms to others.

We get it.

My guess is they all have armed protection at this point.

No one has a constitutional freedom to cover a private entity you fucking moron.

Let's try it this way.

Suppose Apple says "no one can carry guns in an Apple Store " are they violating anyone's 2nd Amendment rights?
 
When reading a thread, one must consider the source, the OP is the same idiot who started a thread stating that we should round people up and then in that very thread accused other people of wanting to round people up and put them in communes.

In other words, a complete moron.

It's Fake Starkey.... he doesn't know Jack shit.
 
Now lets look at why Trump finally said "fuck you" to the WP and why we love it. When the WP blatantly says they are going to put 20 investigators on the case to dig up dirt on Trump and when they call for all the press to actively attack Trump, the Donald is not going to take the WP arm of the Clinton campaign laying down.

The headline they ran was the straw that broke the camel's back and Trump has banned them for that reason. It's not journalism when you lie in the media. It's propaganda.

The central problem with your OP is the press isn't "free". It is a political entity unto itself and doesn't report news accurately or fairly. As evidenced by the katie couric editing scandal for her anti gun screed, the media doesn't care about facts, they care about pushing their own agenda. Which we know is overwhelmingly progressive. Frankly the MSM is despicable and Trump has realized that the general public is disgusted with them.
 
Donald Trump is an oversensitive ass who gets his feelings hurt way to easy for a grown man. Here is a list of publications he has banned since the start of his campaign. One can only conclude that the free press will be a historical footnote once Trump becomes president.
The Des Moines Register
In July 2015, Trump’s campaign denied credentials for the Des Moines Register at a rally in Oskaloosa, Iowa because Trump was unhappy with an editorial titled “Trump should pull the plug on his bloviating side show.”

“We’re not issuing credentials to anyone from The Des Moines Register based on the editorial that they wrote earlier in the week,” Corey Lewandowski reportedly explained.


Politico
In March 2016, Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger had his credentials to cover a rally at Mar-a-Lago revoked after he wrote a piece critical of Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. He was not given an explanation for the sudden ban.

According to Politico’s Hadas Gold, Schreckinger attempted to attend anyway and was denied entry and escorted off the property.

BuzzFeed
BuzzFeed’s McKay Coppins has reportedly been banned from covering Trump events after writing several pieces critical of Trump.

The New Tri-State Defender
Historically black paper the New Tri-State Defender couldn’t even get a response from the Trump campaign when it applied for credentials to a March rally in Memphis.

“We sent out two email requests,” executive editor Karanja Ajanaku told TheWrap at the time. “The first email was sent on the Monday before the event, but we never heard back. The second email was sent on Thursday. They never even acknowledged our emails.”

Still the campaign did manage to acknowledge emails from James Edwards’ white supremacist site, The Political Cesspool, which obtained credentials for the event.


The New York Times
Times reporter Trip Gabriel was ejected from a January rally in Waukee, Iowa, after publishing a story critical of Trump’s Iowa field operation. Gabriel, who says he was escorted out of the rally by a staffer and a police officer, was told he was ejected on orders from “Chuck and Stephanie,” an apparent reference to Trump’s Iowa state director, Chuck Laudner, and his wife, Stephanie.

The Daily Beast
The Trump campaign began denying credentials to reporters from theDaily Beast in November—right around the time executive editor Noah Schactman called for a boycott of Trump’s businesses. Campaign reporter Olivia Nuzzi, who was barred for a time, has been let into some eventssince, though she appears to be the only one:Daily Beast reporter Gideon Resnick writes on Twitter, “I and every other reporter at The Daily Beast have not had access for months and months.”

Univision
The Trump campaign began categorically denying credentials to Univision reporters in October, which he sued for $500 million after they refused to air the Miss Universe pageant citing his comments on Mexicans. That ban has extended to reporters for Fusion TV, which is owned by Univision: In October, the campaign revokedtheir credentials for a rally in Doral, Florida. Trump also banned Univision employees from using his Miami golf course.

The Huffington Post
Reporters from the Huffington Post, which first filed Trump coverage to its entertainment section and later affixed an addendum on Trump stories declaring him a racist, were reportedly banned from getting credentials for Trump campaign events. Another HuffPo reporter, Samantha-Jo Roth, who attempted to enter a rally with the general public, says she was also turned away, apparently because of camera equipment in her backpack.

The National Review
Reporters for the National Review, many of whom had previously been credentialed for Trump events, were reportedly blacklisted by the campaign after the Reviewpublished a January cover story collection of editorials denouncing Trump. Reporter Alexis Levinson says the revocation has led to the publication covering Trump less: “I just don’t pitch stories that involve me covering Trump stuff anymore,” she toldMother Jones in March. “I don’t have three hours to go spend in line. It’s so irritating.”

Mother Jones
Mother Jones reporter Patrick Caldwell says he was denied credentials, without explanation, to a February Nevada victory party, even though the press pen clearly had room for additional reporters. Caldwell reports similar outcomes for his colleagues:

When Mother Jones’ Russ Choma tried to go through the media entrance to a New Hampshire event in December, Trump’s campaign staff summoned local police toescort him from the venue. My colleague Pema Levy was turned away from a Trump event in Iowa in January, along with several other reporters.

Those reporters included BuzzFeed’s McKay Coppins and the Daily Beast’s Olivia Nuzzi.

Gawker
Gawker’s Hamilton Nolan is pretty sure he applied for press credentials for a rally in New Hampshire. As far as he can recall, he didn’t get them. Night editor Hudson Hongo was also denied credentials at a May rally in Eugene, OR.

All of these groups have a history of filing false reports. I would ban them from any of my events as well. They have violated the ethics of reporting on so many occasions they are no longer trustworthy sources of information.

In other words, any one of them is likely to be hired as Clinton's press secretary should she happen to win the election.
