Trump's Next Move Towards a Fascist State: Take Away Licensing of T.V. Networks

[ph3iron]

How can people continue to support this guy? Can you think of any other historical figures that wanted to silence anyone that talked ill of them...?

""With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!" Mr Trump wrote in a tweet."

Donald Trump threatens to shut down NBC and other TV news networks that criticise him

James Madison and Thomas Jefferson said that the free press was a key element in having a true democracy.

"I am... for freedom of the press, and against all violations of the Constitution to silence by force and not by reason the complaints or criticisms, just or unjust, of our citizens against the conduct of their agents." --Thomas Jefferson to Elbridge Gerry, 1799. ME 10:78

Jefferson on Politics & Government: Freedom of the Press

How can you continue to support people who constantly lie to you about the election, conservatives as deplorables and other bullshit. Yeah, please start taking action against the LAMESTREAM MEDIA as We the People don't like PRAVDA and their continuing push of getting the US fundamentally transformed into the United Socialist States of America.

No, 25 % of trumpies were deplorables not conservatives
Might help if you got your facts right

And THAT folks is the REAL issue.

Government should not have that kind of power, because when the nasty commie gets back in power (too late for Obama), he/she will go nuclear on all media rights in turn.

Who are you talking to? When you don't quote or tag the person you are talking to it makes this very confusing. Especially when two threads are merged, one started by me, and the other started by a poster that likes fascism.

I quoted it. guy.

Problem is on your end.

Trump made it and millions doubled down on their 'like' of it.

Where did that occur?

It's been posted, and its common knowledge. Either you are totally ignorant or you are a sealion.

Don't do it again.
Why Sealioning Is Bad

 

[BluesLegend]

The press should be free to LIE??? A biased dishonest press is an enemy of the American people.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The media lies constantly, intentionally and irresponsibly creating division and hate towards white people especially those who already live in high crime areas (aka places with a large black population)

For example, they still say that Heather Heyer was "murdered" by James Fields when that is simply not the case. She died of a heart attack and wasn't even struck by the car much less run over as some outlets report. Washington Post is a bit more careful in their deceptive wording and says she died "due to the violence".

By the statute of the law, Heather was murdered.

The LEO and the courts don't care about you absurd interpretation of the event or the law.

 

[JakeStarkey]

You did it again. G'bye.

Left or right, it is utterly wrong and dangerous for the President to make this comment:
“With all the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for the country!”

The answer is never! It is absolutely imperative we have a free press. I agree the press is hopeless biased and leftist, but a President should not talk about censoring his critics. If you want to make sure Media companies don’t get too big like then fine have that discussion. But a President should never speak censoring his critics.

Most of his media problems are self-inflicted. His tweets are generally outrageous and impossible to defend. His childish and public fights with people are immature and yes unpresidential.

You are the source of your own problem.

That's the problem.

We DO NOT HAVE a free press.

We have 3 corporate entities that control %90 of the narrative. The press is supposed to expose the corruption, not make excuses for it or help cover it up. They're not supposed to attack the party they hate with slander and ridicule. As far as I'm concerned Most of the "journalists" in the country are enemies of the republic.

 

[BluesLegend]

This is not a situation where we had a fair and free press that was working, and Trump is throwing a monkey wrench in the works. The so called 'press' is broken, its corrupted, biased. Trump is simply trying to correct this situation.

BULLSHIT

Trump is sticking his nose where it doesn't belong.

 

[007]

This isn't a "case." It's is the democrat propaganda wing lying or not. If it is, and there's proof, then jerk their damn license, simple as that.

Yanking their license is not solution. Discredit them. Sue them and make them pay. Expose them. Do no silence them. That's something the commies would do. Do not be like them for the sake of "truth".

YES it IS.

Just like ANYTHING else you get a license to do, DRIVING, HUNTING, FISHING, ON and ON, if you ABUSE such that you have gotten a license to do, it gets TAKEN AWAY, PERIOD.

Gramps come on, NBC reported that Trump wanted to increase our nuclear arsenal 10 fold a blatant LIE and frankly irresponsible how do you think the rest of the world reacted to that lie? Should Trump just sit there and do nothing? We frequently agree on the issues but you are way off to one side on this issue.

Should Trump threaten to yank the license of NBC, no. But something must be done to rein in liberal media that has thrown journalistic integrity out the window in their attempts to get Trump at all costs.

How many bitched when Obama and the left tried to shut Fox News down? Huh? Now you want to bitch?

 

[LoneLaugher]

Look at this! The beginnings of a real outrage fest! Is it possible that some “conservatives” here have had enough?

Um. That never happened.
