How about Fox....




"Fox News anchor Shepard Smith on Thursday criticized President Trump for bashing reporters gathered at a lengthy Thursday press conference, calling on him to answer legitimate questions from news outlets.

"(Trump) keeps repeating ridiculous throwaway lines that are not true at all and sort of avoiding this issue of Russia as if we're some kind of fools for asking the question. Really?" Smith said. "Your opposition was hacked and the Russians were responsible for it and your people were on the phone with Russia on the same day it was happening and we're fools for asking the questions?"

Trump was repeatedly asked by reporters from different publications about reported conversations between his campaign aides and Russian officials. Trump blasted such stories as "fake news" and berated journalists.

"Russia is fake news. Russia — this is fake news put out by the media," he said at one point.

Trump maintained that he is not aware that any of his campaign aides had any improper communications with Russian officials.

"No sir," Smith continued. "We are not fools for asking this question, and we demand to know the answer to this question. You owe this to the American people. Your supporters will support you either way. If your people were on the phone, what were they saying? We have a right to know, we absolutely do and that you call us fake news and put us down like children for asking these questions on behalf of the American people is inconsequential. The people deserve an answer to this question at very least."

Smith also defended CNN reporter Jim Acosta, who pressed Trump for answers on several points. Acosta and Trump have frequently sparred at past press conferences. Thursday Trump said he was upgrading CNN from "fake news" to "very fake news."

Shepard Smith is the only reason to watch Fox. I know Trump gave a shout out to Fox & Friends, but who can dumb down enough to watch it?

Trump was such a whining cry baby yesterday that it gives one pause about his ability to deal with adversity. And it's only begun.

All Presidents say things that turn out to not be true. Some examples are:

(1) Mission Accomplished

(2) We invaded because he has weapons of mass destruction.

(3) You can keep your doctor.

(4) I did not have sex with that woman.

But from Spicer, to Conway, to Flynn, to Trump himself, this administration tells one whopper (sorry, I should have said "alternative facts") after another. We have to believe our President, and the poll numbers suggest that most Americans don't believe this one.

Billions went to Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Egypt, Libya...we pay people to not fight against us.

It's easy to pay them when the money is free...they borrow over a $ trillion a year to get their way.

Secondly you are aware that even Venezuela attempts to block news coming from CNN because they know it highly biased

Dear guest:

First, Trump talk is always sales talk. He speaks in hyperboles . For example I hit a golf ball a mile yesterday morning. Also consider that every politicians speaks to what they will do for voters.

Second, the MSM has always hated Trump and they have always featured him in bad light calling him anything from Hitler to stupid. The alphabet ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN, et al are remiss in their ethical obligation to report fair and balanced news.

Third, Trump's 77 minutes the day before is exactly what the doctor ordered for MSM. This self-proclaimed Fourth Estate believed they controlled the world but are now embarrassed and outed by Trump. Embarrassed because in their hubris they laughed and made a joke about Trump and yet here he is President of the US. Outed because he invited them to a 77 minute televised conference where they intended to shame him. Yet he took control talked over their heads to the American people telling them he is keeping his promises. Trump is certainly transparent

Believe what you will about Trump. He is the only guy I have seen come to politics with a backbone. We need bold and swift action to right this nation's course because it is being swallowed up with corruption and cronyism. and just like mobsters those establishment figures are fighting dirty to protect their turf.
This is a truism.

We should trust him because he not a typical career politician. Career politicians have created the mess that we're in today. It's time to get back to a citizen government. The election of President Trump is the first step in that process.

Some Americans are flabbergasted of this election and the actions of the president. He's not being very presidential. In other words, he's not acting like a typical politician.

MDLNB 02-18-2017 10:35 AM

trust but verify

Libtards demanded respect for Obama and no one rioted in the streets. Obama got his cabinet with hardly a peep other than the regular vetting questions. Of course, his color probably made everyone fear saying anything against him. He definitely used his color to further his agenda. And he still is. So, libtards demanded respect for Obummer, but they do the opposite regarding Trump. Typical. Just remember that this is the reason that the left lost this election. Because the voter saw how nasty the left is so the right adapted to the guerrilla lwarfare and beat them at their own game. So, now that Trump won and has been in office for less than a month, the left is attempting every verbal assassination they can think of. Hypocrite is a civil description of their attitude.

Please tell me who fact checks the fact checkers?
Anyone making a comparison among the various news channels can judge for themselves how honest and reliable they really are. the alphabet stations along with CNN have such a bias against Trump, actually hate is closer to the truth that he will never get a fair shake. they spend all their time criticizing him with trivial nonsense and not one word about what he has accomplished in 4 weeks , despite the resistance he is meeting with Obama left overs.

NBC spent time speaking of his approval rating but not one mention of his performance rating. Why because they oppose his agenda.

Frankly progressive rants are getting tiresome and boring. perhaps they could do something more constructive like cut out paper dolls. Geezzz.

Anyone with a brain understands that if a politican is loved by other politicans and the media it means...he sold out.

But the brainless liberals here don't see or understand the obvious.

Rockyrd 02-18-2017 01:26 PM

"Trump has been embroiled in so many disputes over truth that it’s difficult to know where to begin. “If falsehood, like truth, had only one face, we would be in better shape,” the philosopher Michel de Montaigne famously wrote. “But the reverse of truth has a hundred thousand shapes and a limitless field.”

"“Lying may appear to work for a president in the short term and, in many cases, it does,” Alterman says. “But a president ignores the consequences of his deception at his own political peril.”


Donald Trump and the Semantics of Falsehood - The Atlantic

"He also routinely criticizes people by calling them liars. He bestowed the nickname “Lyin Ted” on his one-time political opponent Ted Cruz. And Trump has cultivated an image of brusqueness that his supporters sometimes equate with honesty—taking the idea that he isn’t afraid to say what he thinks as proof that what he says is necessarily true."
