"Former President Trump is coming under intense criticism for a social media post late Sunday in which he threatened to investigate Comcast, the parent company of NBCUniversal, NBC News and MSNBC, over the outlet’s coverage of him should he be elected president again. “They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its ‘Country Threatening Treason,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website.

NBC has not commented on Trump’s threat, but his remarks have sparked a wave of backlash in media and political circles. Other observers noted Monday what they say is a lack of outrage on the political right in response to Trump’s threat to scrutinize coverage of an independent media organization. "Of course, Glenn Greenwald and all the [right-wingers] who complain about Democrats’ lack of respect for free speech said nothing yesterday about Trump calling for investigations of TV networks and threatening to pull NBC’s broadcast license because of their speech,” the journalist and author James Surowiecki wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter."

Why can't a president shut down a media company and have them charged and executed for treason? Aren't corporations people? If so, then it can be charged for treason and everyone who played a role in that treason can be executed. If Biden could order the DOJ to attack Fox News by forcing it to be sued by Dominion and pay 800 million dollars; then why can't Trump shut down Comcast?

This isn't even the first time Trump said something like this....he also rightfully called for the criminal investigation of Saturday Night Live; something that should have been done years ago...he wanted to shut down social media platforms if they tried to "fact check" his tweets, he knows the whole "freedom of the press" thing in the Constitution is a scam and should be done away with. So again, why can't the president shut down media companies? And by president, I mean Trump obviously....if Biden tried to do this, clearly that would be wrong.

Trump has never heard of the protection the media gets from the Constitution, I am wondering if he has ever read the Constitution?

Even bet Trump can't spell "Constitution".

 

[Smokin' OP]

Will the inmates in general population think the same?

"Freedom of the press" does not mean "Freedom to slander."

A common misconception of the left.

"If Biden could order the DOJ to attack Fox News by forcing it to be sued by Dominion"

The DOJ works for the people and not the executive branch, so it cant make anybody sue. If it did happen, it would be the easiest civil case to defend in history. Additionally, i doubt the DOJ gets involved with civil cases.

Sure.................WHO found out about that?

Trump has tried to sue them for defamation but those cases were always dismissed.

His unhinged post isn't about defamation. He's promising to weaponize the government to go after press coverage he doesn't like.

You don’t comprehend what you read. So why ask anybody anything?

None of the Government bodies or politicians understand the basis of the constitution anymore.
The fundamental, overriding principle of the constitution was the protection of the people from the Government and other entities that threatened their lives and lifestyles.

Today we have a past president that clearly explains that he doesn't understand a thing about our constitution. He is, in a way, part of the problem.

The core of the problem are these huge international corporations...they own the resources and are limiting free speech. They own a controlling portion of congress.

Their whole goal is more money and power.
King makers and king deposers.

One of the fruits of their ambitions is that the people on this forum shout their propaganda of false dichotomies. The real problems and questions never get asked as people's focus is on meaningless drivel.

Again....why can't Comcast be tried for treason?

 

[dblack]

He's just playing the bad guy wrestler - the "heel", in wrestling terms. A troll. He'll say anything that provokes people, with little regard for the actual issue.

The problem is the morons who follow him. Trump might not be a fascist, but many of his fans are, and they're shining up their jackboots.

 

[BackAgain]

Again....why can't Comcast be tried for treason?

Your question assumes that it can’t.

Fox news didn't push a Russia Russia Russia collusion hoax against a sitting president for 5 years. The MSM did. And when proven wrong, they didn't apologize, they doubled down.

Yes, the press should be able to be sued for slander and libel. Not treason, but slander and libel.
