Trump Declares Networks That Are 'Negative' Towards Him Should Have Their TV Licenses 'Terminated'

[IM2]

How can you argue something you cannot even spell, IMDAFT?

I have spelled psychosis correctly many times in response to your retardation. So I make one typo, and you try running your mouth. That doesn't change anything, loon. The belief in white superiority is not a belief grounded in reality. White supremacy is psychosis, which is a mental disorder, and you have it. You're not alone in this forum.

All that our leader has to do when he resents enough what comes from another person is simply say in response to them, "Thank you for making me aware of how far your brain train doesn't travel."

God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. We all know the saying, "It's better to be silent and be labeled a bonehead than to speak and have everyone remove whatever doubt they have about you."

Does the 1st apply to the president?

Do you have contempt for free speech?

When someone in power threatens free speech and sics his demented followers on comedians with death threats, that is not free speech.

 

[Old Rocks]

So, Trump should be accountable for what he says, but everyone else can say and do as they please?

Damn but you are dense. Someone standing in an empty field can yell fire, and there is no problem. Do that in an crowded theater when there is no fire, and it is a crime. Yes, when someone has a cult following that is prone to violence, stating that someone shold be "put to sleep" is completely over the line. And one of our primary founding fathers had the answer to Trump's flap yap about newspapers and other media;

Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.

People in positions of authority are expected to be accountable for what they say.

Anyone who understands anything about leadership knows that

Particularly when the speaker has the Power of his office behind him.

Making threat to censor speech for personal political slights is abuse of that responsibility.

‘Trump declared on Wednesday that television networks airing “negative” coverage of him should have their broadcast licenses “terminated” in a series of late-night rants against CBS, ABC, and NBC.’

Trump Declares Networks That Are ‘Negative’ Towards Him Should Have Their TV Licenses ‘Terminated’

President Donald Trump declared that television networks airing "negative" coverage of him should have their broadcast licenses "terminated."

Further proof of Trump’s authoritarian contempt of a free press.

The First Amendment protects the right of a free press to accurately and factually report on Trump’s crimes and corruption, Trump’s failures and incompetence.

But the Trump regime wants to violate the First Amendment, lawlessly silence a free press and the right of the people to know.

So should government be in charge of TV airways? Yes or no.

I agree. TV stations are licensed by and, in cases like NPR, funded by the taxpayers.

They have a legal and moral obligation to stay neutral and not present a partisan agenda.

If they can’t abide by those obligations, they need to lose their licenses.

that was the case before 1987 when the fairness doctrine was in place.
But it was scuttled at that time, hence you have partisan reporting, and conservatives wanted it, and still want it.

Why did you leave out the rest of the quote.

He said CBS should put him to sleep.......meaning they should fire him.

Did you have a gripe when *biden said "it's time to put Trump in the bullseye"?

Point me to your post calling out *biden for his remark about putting "Trump in the bullseye"?

So, you support government censorship and harassment.

Spoken like a Nazi.

thats not what he is saying tim....

 

[TimFitz]

I agree.

First of all, Biden wasn’t calling for press harassment and censorship. As Trump does regularly.

So, it’s not a valid point.

Biden also e pressed regret for making that comment.

 

[TimFitz]

thats not what he is saying tim....

Yes, it is.

he is defending Trump’s demands for censorship and harassment.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Yes, it is.

he is defending Trump’s demands for censorship and harassment.

geezus tim read what the guy said....if its tax payer supported they should be neutral and not present a partisan agenda.....do you understand that tim?...

His first two words were “I agree”.

This is what he is agreeing with (he cited it)

Censorship, plain and simple.

and he also explained himself tim......or are you just to political to get that?......

So, you didn't condemn *biden for making remarks to target Trump.

Got it.

They should. They are no longer news companies, they are propagandists for the demofascists.
